I'm reading the manga via library atm, until they build that Borders near us :>
You just get so INTO this story, you know? I don't think any sort of sidebar would work, it would just drag you out and disrupt the whole narrative.

All those here who liked DN would probably like Code Geass as well. Lelouch is quite similiar to Light, but less heartless...

Before seeing the anime, I was kinda wondering what's the deal with a kid writing names in a book and then those names are killed off. But after seeing it, I enjoyed it a lot. A detective battle between two ideals of Justice.

I can't stand Misa. She's just..annoying. Ryuk was generally what turned me off to it, because he was so OMFGEVIL-looking, but I adjusted. Besides, we both have the same favorite fruit :3
I agree, Near sucked big time. And I can't draw his stupid hair.

The scene was already pretty silly in the original Japanese version, but going even more over-the-top managed to make it just silly enough to be genuinely funny.
I think the anime/manga should've ended in the same way the live action movies did.
By the way, this guy's drawings on Deviant Art are flat-out hilarious, particularly "Brain Dead" and "The Game Show".

Death Note really loves to dramatize everything, but it's rather justified with the writing when the notebook kills people.

"I take a potato chip, AND EAT IT!!" *Dramatic music*
Everything about DN is wonderful.
(I took my Math teacher's example and asked people I hated to sign their name for a ridiculous thing like a list. Most of my friends looked at the book in horror. It was priceless.)

I read English scanlations of the manga, because all has not been released in France. I really liked it. I bought the Death Note in a chinese shop in Paris after that (and some artwork).
I'm a big fan of Light. I had an argument with my sister about it: she prefers L.
L is ok, but Light is much more sexy: he's young, handsome and totally crazy, I like it.
I'm trying to find the anime: is it really good?

Well, it's hard to find Phoenix Wright fans who DON'T like overdramatization. :)

I didn't say that I didn't like the drama, when I do something I consider epic the ominous Kira music always plays in my head, (and I'm sometimes prone to fits of maniacal laughter if warranted). Yeah, too much DN for me... My drawing notebook was styled to look like a Death Note. I got this one Otaku girl to flip out...

I <3 my Mamo-chan. My Mamo-chan is love.
I ended up being hooked to it. I was sick from school one day and ended up watching almost the entire series. It's absolutely brilliant. My friends and I often get into arguments over Light and L, though XD.

Lol!!! That was just great. I really love Matsuda though. He's WAY up there on my favorite character from Death Note list... after Light and L.

They're totally pro-Kira, so it was perfect.
The different ending is good too, because I don't hate L
Do you have seen them?

I doubt it, but they are making another movie with L in it though...
I bought Death Note 13, and some of the things the author says are really stupid and ruin things in the series...

Nope, it was another television series. It's supposed to be a spin-off.

Anyway, I've been keeping up with this series since it was first released in English and just the other day I was happy to find the live action films in store. They're different, I'll give it that, but still very nicely done.

I'd read it first, just so you can see how epic they make some of the scenes later when you watch it, plus you can see the original ending and more detail into the second arc...

Near's overconfidence really bugged me the whole time; that probably has to do with it as well.

Well, I do agree that Near was lame and that the second story arc was not as good as the first, but that's probably because there was less chapters/episodes in it...
