User ImageWhat do you like best about Death Note? Ryuk, L, Light or is it something else entirely? Or do you hate Death note with a fiery passion. Do you prefer the manga, the movie or the anime? This is a forum for people to discuss all aspects of this series.

I enjoy Death Note because it's a smart series. There's a lot of logical thinking and suspense thriller in it. There are some characters that I can't stand, Misa being one of them, but for the most part I thought, for its time, it was very innovated and new.

I enjoy the manga more because it seems to delve more into the story and the characters. The anime does a pretty good job but, for the most part, the characters seem a little flat.

The movies....aren't bad. They're kind of their own thing after a while but they're not bad.

The only thing I really hate about Death Note is the rabid fan base surrounding it. I can't tell you how many years in a row that I've gone to my local convention and I see cosplayers as Light and L 'glomping' each other. It gets a little over bearing sometimes :/

I agree that the movies were a separate entity. I love Ryuk though he is so funny and his dark humor makes me smile. I also agree however that the squeeing L and Light fan girls need to be silenced maybe I will use my death note on them twisted

I really enjoyed Deathnote. I read the Manga and watched the Anime but the Live action just kinda put me off. I would think manga and anime is enough to profit from this story because of the mass amount of merch in stores like Fye.
I'll admit it... I cosplayed as L for Mechacon... I did not really enjoy being L#7. How embarrassing. I'll never play a popular anime/manga again. Especially when the Kira character stalked me... psychos....
In the plot I loved the twists and turns. I seriously cried when L died. The plot was just dragged on after that. I just saw the original plot as Light vs. L. Throwing Near into the plot just seemed like a desperate attempt to replace L.
And I do hate Misa. She was a idiotic puppet which probably pisses off a good bit of Feminists. She was the definition of spoiled bratty fangirl.

yeah misa is annoying but she did help light a lot though i never saw the movies and i never have time to go and buy the manga so i either have friends let me copy the anime or download it off the internet so i can watch it or if walmart has it i buy it but i really like never go to a book store to get more mangas sad

what did you guys think of the live action movies that they made?  
PostPosted: Wed Nov 30, 2011 8:24 am


I could ramble on about the psychological thriller aspect of the series, or use it as a metaphor for social commentary... but I believe I will truncate myself to a simple:

NOOOOOO!!!! L! Why Light!?! How could you?!? crying

Because L is a creepy, creepy little freak! I never really liked L as much as others did. I still say Ryuk FTW! I don't deny L is a good character just that I would not feel comfortable with him in my house. emotion_eyebrow

But, guys really. I thought those was supposed to be one of the uber popular animes! Really no discussion?!

D:
That's terrible Ghranna, I knew you were evil... But... But... crying
I mean jeez... Hating someone for their psych disorders is discrimination...

I have a lot of the same issues as L... Am I a creepy, creepy little freak? crying
