Always so much fun to re-read a beloved series only to find out that I still love it. Or maybe even more.





Oh, and I don't think that I even need to say that I'm team Kira. Who would be surprised by that?

“I am justice!”

EDIT: The most me thing ever, I just signed up on Netflix and Death Note anime is the first thing I started watching.
It's driving my parents crazy. My mum always asks a question about something and then rather leaves.
My dad just watched 3 episodes with me, but he had to open a bottle of good port wine.

tak tohle bylo fakt kruty! zjistila jsem par veci: 1) zbožňuji mangy
2)nevim jestli jsem team Light/Kira nebo team L. prozatim budu oboje. necham je souperit o to, kdo bude vychytralejsi zmetek ^_^.
3)chci vlastni Deathnote! ♡

Definitely 4.5 stars. This is my first manga and I'm hooked!! So interesting and intriguing with lots of information that just feeds your curiosity that little bit more but not too much to indulge you. Ryuk is a fantastic character although I think there's more to him than he's letting on and Light is clever and cunning although I feel it's going to be his downfall. Can't wait to pick up number 2.

When I was in college, I used to read a TON of manga, and this series was one of my favorites (until they introduced that weird manic pixie dreamgirl character and the whole series started to fall apart, that is). The Death Note series is one of the darker manga I have read, and it's kind of sad that all of the attempts to bring it to the big screen have failed, because it's got so many disturbing and sensational twists that I think it would do really well if they got the right team on the project.



Light Yagami is a brilliant high school student and star test-taker. Ryuk is a shinigami, or a "death god," or is bored AF living in the shinigami realm doing nothing but gambling or napping. All hell breaks loose when he casually drops his Death Note into the human realm and Light picks it up. Suddenly, Light has power over human life and human death, and he thinks he's going to create his own personal eugenics paradise by killing off all the bad guys, psychos, and murderers.



I feel like this manga tackles a lot of really tough philosophical questions about good and evil. The cat and dog relationship between Light and L is also really fascinating. Both people are brilliant and think they are working on the side of good, but they're also super manipulative and willing to do pretty terrible things in the greater name of justice. A lot of manga doesn't hold up, but this series really does. It was fun to revisit one of my old favorites and still feel myself getting shocked by the twists.



4 to 4.5 stars

Prosto za ne poverovati ali strip u kojem se slabo sta desava i gde u sustini imamo samo gomile price ne bi smeo ni priblizno da bude zabavan ilida te vuce. Ali gosn Ohba je u tome odlicno uspeo tako da sada sedim ovde i cekam nastavak.

This is mind fucking, but still.

I, I just love Death Note. So, so much.

I must be cray cray, but I love Light Yagami more than L, even though I know L is correct and there should be justice. But I feel for Light. Even though he would kill and use me too in an instance. (Gosh, I am crazy.) But I believe that Light was a good guy and if he haven't gotten that Death Note in the first place, he would have been the most kick-ass Detective ever. :'(
I loved the anime. And the Manga didn't disappoint me at all.
On to the next one! xD
P.s, am I the only one who just freaking loves the opening song of the anime?

I think this set up a whole lot of interesting things that can happen throughout the series. It took me a little while to wrap my brain around how many people he was killing, but I think I'm really starting to get into it now!

Começa com a força toda. Isto promete.

**A Graphic Novel**

A masterfully thoughout story with a genius play on morality and right vs. wrong.

I can’t decide which is better, the anime or the manga.

Death Note is the first Japanese anime I watched in my adult life, I watched a few growing up and I’m still a fan of animated series but not Japanese anime, the I watched the anime adaptation and I fell in love. Years later after watching the adaptation I decided to read the manga.

Death Note is such a great manga, it’s follows Light Yagami a top high schooler, he is extremely smart and intelligent. One day he found a Death Note(belonging to a Shinigami I.e the Japanese god of death) lying on the floor with instructions on how to use it, of course he experimented on it and lo and behold he works. Light decided to kill all the criminals in the world and create an utopia that he will rule as a god. A bunch of criminals dying won’t go without notice.

I love the art, graphics and characters in this manga so much. Light the protagonist is an anti hero, who is on a downward spiral. Someone who is okay will killing and using people won’t remain the hero for long.

This manga poses a very moral question, what Light is doing is not exactly bad, he wants to create an utopia, a world without criminals and crime but his way of doing that isn’t morally correct, he isn’t a god even though he has a power of one, for now.

5 stars

I love the anime and I've never read the manga. I personally think Deathnote is one of the most well-crafted and gripping stories I've had the pleasure of coming across. Light Yagami is a completely narcissistic and has a horrifying god-complex. He's a fleshed out villain, who at times seems almost normal and charismatic. I always love coming back to the beginning of his story because I'v always wondered if the Deathnote was what triggered his traits to become fully revealed. I suspect he would've become who he was no matter what, but I think the Deathnote falling into his hands just pushed him to becoming a psychopath faster. The art is fantastic. The story is amazing. The characters are entertaining. L hasn't been introduced yet, but I'm interested to revisit one of the most entertaining power struggles. Ryuk is also the best. That is all.
