It never gets old. :<
But still, mangas that needed to end at volume six are mangas that needed to end at volume six.

EDIT: I haven't been watching the anime version of Death Note, but I'm sure most of it was the same. I just watched the final episode though, and quite frankly .. I'm happy for the alternate ending. It's more or less the exact same outcome as the manga, but it's handled so much better. It feels like an actual conclusion, in ways, compared to just

So, I'm watching it on the AS website now. :D
"That thing" in volume....7? almost got me to stop reading DN.
And, as far as endings go, the second one is so much more fun. ^.^
I'll consider the new sig a compliment

Best. Read. Ever!
I was half-tempted to quit reading after Vol 7, though. The manga drifted away from thrills and suspense and fell into more of a political warfare style. By the way, politics bore me. The only thing that kept me reading was to see who would come out on top in the end.
I've only seen the first episode of English dub Death Note but seeing it in color with music is like a breath of fresh air. I'm witholding watching anymore until they release the DVD. It's not entirely accurate to the manga. For example, Light's first two killings weren't chronicled until after he and Ryuk met. At least they didn't severely alter anything.

I find the second arc fine, I love the entire thing. I however started watching again for my therapy. Of the dub. I couldn't watch it, I know that seems weird but I'm like this, the first thing I hear I watch. If I had heard DN in English first I probably would have watched it.

I think you'll be a little disappointed when it comes to the end of the anime series. It deviates from the manga quite a bit, and personally, I prefer the ending in the manga.

I did read the whole thing before an anime was announced, so I guess I had a certain bias while I was watching the anime. Although I found it hilarious that Light's voice actor also did Tamaki from Ouran High School Host Club, and Mikami's voice actor also did Kyouya from the same anime XD. (If you've seen the anime, you'd have a hard time imagining Tamaki sound so EVIL)
All in all, the anime was pretty high quality, even though he looked like he was having an orgasm at the end of episode 1. xD But I still like the manga's ending better. It just felt more thought out, and it shows more of the aftermath of what happened.
Because of my obsession while reading it, it's gotten me two Death Note notebooks from friends as gifts, an exclusive art book from my ex, and a Death Note lighter which I wubs to death~~ <33

Ohhhhhhh yes. Epic. THAT's why you gotta love Matsuda.
But yeah, it's addicting as hell. I actually finished the entire manga a little less than a month after I started. I might have gone even faster if I had the money to buy them all myself (I borrowed several of them from my boyfriend). I still need to buy, like, five more -_-;
It's kinda interesting, this is about the only manga I've read that would not benefit from the "sidebars" that a lot of other series have. You know what I mean, the little side columns where the author talks about the story and characters (or complains about it and talks constantly about video games - I'm looking at YOU, Matsushita). That's one thing that bothers me about CLAMP - no sidebars. I dunno, having those around just makes me feel more involved with the story, like the author is talking to me personally. Okay, I'm rambling. But my point is, that wouldn't work in DN. It would detract from the story too much. Yeah okay, I'll shut up now.
So if you found a Death Note lying around, what would you do with it? I think I'd just keep it around and doodle in it. It is a nice notebook, after all. I'd just have to remember not to write stuff in it, like lists of celebrities with three names. Jennifer Love Hewitt would be fine since I don't know what she looks like, but Sarah Michelle Gellar would be a goner. And that would suck. I liked her in Buffy.
