Title: Death Note Anime October 3
Post by: uzutake on September 04, 2006, 02:51:34 PM
I'm also excited for this one XDD

FINALLY. Death Note will have the attention it deserves!

L voiced by Kappei Yamaguchi (who did Ryuichi Sakuma from Gravitation and Ranma from Ranma 1/2(.

And Light voiced by Mamoru Miyano (who does Tamaki from Ouran High School Host club and Riku from Kingdom Hearts [Japanese version]).

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=6592

(It's intersting these were the seiyuu chosen to voice L and Light... O__O)

EDIT!!
New and really interesting info about Death Note's seiyuu:

Amane Misa: Voiced by Aya Hirano. AKA Haruhi Suzumiya from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

  SOS Brigade's Leader Haruhi Suzumiya
+ Ouran High School Host Club's King Tamaki Suoh
   CHAOS...and fun ;P

...PWN! XD

(That's like Haruhi hooking up with him...O_X)

And Light's voice is *w*

I downloaded the first episode.

It might be me, but Desuno's subs seem rather stretched...-_-

edit Desuno's subs suck.

That is all.

edit 2 Death Note is very intriguing. I'd like to see more.

If you guys want a high quality fansub, go with Live-Evil. That's where i'm getting the 1st episode from.

I'll download it just to see what all the hoopla is about.

Yeah, the first episode was really really good.

(Especially Light's Killing Spree...it's meant to be serious and all "Wow...so much...power..." but I laughed anyway XD;;)

Must. Watch. Subs.

...on YouTube.

Well, of course I'm gonna come to Anime News Network. Here's a very detailed review for the volume 1 of the manga: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/reviews/display.php?id=861

And here's a good blog about the anime, if you're interested:

I saw the first episode.  I was impressed big time watching the first 15 minutes.  I expect the series to kick butt  :D

Adding Death Note to my manga wish list.

Why do people NEVER seem to touch the comic before the anime *shakes fist*

The only thing I like is how Kira is the jerk he was in the Comics. The voice suits him well also.

i love series that start AFTER the manga is over. Atleast we won't expect to see much filler if any. This goes especially for jump. I always hated the fact most jump animes becomes filler-city while the manga is still great to read.

On a side note, im surprised that death note is what? 37 episodes? I wonder if they are going to stretch it a lot.

ROFLMAO.

Yeah, you have to wonder exactly how you can dot an i or cross a t like that. XD I loved the cinematography for that part, though, where he's writing the names and the camera's all shaky.

It happens. Its hard to hear about good series other than word of mouth or random sampling. And good series are hard to find subbed all the way. D:

BTW, I read all the manga (as one probably could already guess). XD

Though if I haven't read the manga by the time I watch the anime, its not very likely that I'd touch the manga unless I really love the series. I normally go from manga -> anime not vice versa. Its best to point a good series out to be before I watch the anime. >.< (I wonder if we should have a manga forum... >.>)

Death Note doesnt seem like it'll need that many episodes. It only has (what?) 10 volumes at MOST (right? I forget -__-)

The I'm guessing they'll introduce L maybe by the 7th-10th episode, then Misa by the...13th? Then that certain event happens that makes us all sad(RIP) might happen around the 20s-ish. Then yeah..............

don't ask, don't bother if you don't know. Just let the story unfold itself as it progresses. actually, i shouldn't have said anything to begin with, my appologies.

Oh, so it's got something to do with Deathnote in particular? I thought it was something that was common to all. You know, like first season second season or first stage second stage...

Aww... you were asking what a first, second arc, etc. is.

Its mainly a story plot that starts and then comes to an end. A story that follows it would be the 2nd arc. And 3rd, 4th, etc arcs as the series goes on. I think the best I describe it as.

And yes, this is common to a lot of series. There's very few with just a single arc.

Watched ep 3 of this. I'm surprised by the amount of intelligence / seriousness that they've managed to maintain. I was worried that we would end up facing a serious lapse in intensity after the first bit, and lapse into either filler or repetition. No such thing has happened.

i'm not expecting any filler for this series. although its 3 cools of 37 eps, the manga's style is very intense and reads like a novel. Plus theres 12 volumes to cover, plenty of material to work with imo. I haven't watched the anime series yet but i will get to it eventually.

Very good stuff these last two episodes. I'm wondering whether they'll make a note to mention that

Quote from: Spoilersince Ray Penbar wrote on the Death Note, he, like Light, cannot go to heaven or hell. Also, I guess we might get to find out what DOES happen to such people when they die - do they just disappear forever? I kind of suspect that they end up in the Death Gods' realm or something.

GIGUNDO SPOILER UP AHEAD! READ ONLY IF YOU'VE READ THE END OF DEATH NOTE!!!

QuoteActually, in the end, when Light dies(Ryuk kills him of course), Ryuk said something that triggered Light's memory to the very moment where they met and when Ryuk first told him that "Death Note users go to neither heaven or hell", there's a "missing scene" that we never saw. Light turns around, smiles and says to Ryuk, "I know. There is no heaven and hell. There's jsut nothing after death...right?" or something like that. And Ryuk says that it is true.

But this information could be irrelavent because if that is true, then Ryuk wouldnt know, now would he? Unless the King of Shinigami have some kind of unrevealed secret....

EDIT::
I realized this a while back somewhere around chapter 70 of the manga when something similar to this occured...but I cant believe they did the same with the anime...

Look at how Light's eyes change slowly. They become more and more narrow with each passing episode...like they're becoming more...observing and cunning.

The anime is so damn accurate >.<
