After meeting with the previous owner of the Death Note, a Shinigami named Ryuk, Light seeks to become “the God of the New World” by passing his judgment on those he deems to be evil or who get in his way. Light is initially skeptical of the notebook’s authenticity, but after experimenting with it, Light realizes that the Death Note is real. The Death Note’s instructions claim that if a human’s name is written within it, that person shall die. His life undergoes a drastic change in the year 2003, when he discovers a mysterious notebook, known as the “Death Note”, lying on the ground. Light Yagami is an extremely intelligent young man who resents the crime and corruption in the world. An anime television adaptation aired in Japan from October 3, 2006, to June 26, 2007. The 108 chapters were collected and published into 12 tankōbon volumes between April 2004 and July 2006. Death Note was first serialized in Shueisha’s manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump from December 2003 to May 2006.

The story follows Light Yagami, a teen genius who stumbles across a mysterious otherworldly notebook: the “Death Note”, which belonged to the Shinigami Ryuk, and grants the user the supernatural ability to kill anyone whose name is written in its pages. The ending felt like it was too fast at times, and then too slow at times, but in the end, it was still anticlimactic.Death Note (Japanese: デスノート Hepburn: Desu Nōto) is a Japanese manga series written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata. My only complaint with this movie, other than that damn RHCP song, is that it seemed a little anticlimactic. The ending of the movie actually had me bawling. The ending in the manga had me kind of sad. Rewatch Value: I scored it one higher than the first movie because, like I said, I definitely enjoyed this one more. The only song I can remember, other than the suspenseful music they sometimes tossed in, was a RHCP song. Music: Again, I don't remember much of the music in this movie. Toda Erika managed to make it so I was a Misa fan from start to finish. I'd love her one second and then really dislike her the next. In the manga/anime, my opinion on Misa always varied.

Toda Erika got more time in this one, as was expected, and I liked her in her role as Misa as well. Much like the first one, there are things in this that are completely different from the manga and anime, and like I said with the first movie, I didn't think it hurt the movie too much.Īcting/Cast: I said in the last one that I loved Fujiwara Tatsuya and Matsuyama Kenichi as Light and L, and that definitely didn't change while watching this movie. It was faster paced, so you didn't feel too bored at certain parts. Rewatch Value 9.0 Story: I watched this one shortly after finishing the first movie, and if I had to pick between the two, this one would definitely get my vote.
