  • Death Note

    http://www.fangoria.com/deathnote/

    WTF is this, was the anime good, and should I bother hunting this down?

    Also, Japanese people are great. You have got to love the RHCP theme song for the movie. Awesome.

    Re: Death Note

    I read several chapters to the manga and really liked it. This kid finds the Deathnote, and with it he can kill people if he can visualize what they look like and write their name in the book. He gets carried away and begins a mission to clense the world of all evil. New rules to the book constantly pop up, but it was pretty interesting.

        There is a cartoon on Adult Swim right now too. Looks to be on the same level as the manga. I can't vouch for the quality after like the 5th book.

          the anime is kind of ridiculous, or at least so i've been told. my friend stated that when the characters write in the notebooks, they write rather dramatically. i've only seen one episode and he did not write dramatically. and i've enjoyed the manga. the live action version of the manga/anime was actually really good. special effects and story line were spot on. and i really liked the live action adaptations. unlike initial d....

            So you're telling me that the trailer I posted for this movie above is good? That you've seen the flick? Huh. The FX looked like complete shit in the trailer, but maybe I'll have to BT this.

              i can't see the trailer... is it for the live action movie? i thought it was great for a live action anime movie. i enjoyed it just because i went into it thinking it was going to be as horrible as initial d.

                  go check out the youtube parts of the movie. i don't think the trailer did them justice. i just though it was good for what they did.

                    Finally started to read this. Pretty neat little story. While we were waiting for Iron Man to start they kept showing previews of this. I'm definately gonna hunt this down.

                      Finally finished the first book. I actually enjoyed it. Pretty interesting so far. Anyone know how many books are in this series? And if they are worth getting?

                        there's quite a bit. i don't know about worth getting since the live-action movie will sum it right up. that is, if you want to watch the live-action version. but it's an interesting read since it start to become a murder mystery.
