Death Note

Based on the very popular manga Death Note, which is great. Hopefully they won't fuck it up. I'm a bit skeptical with the choices of VA's, but we'll see.

Promo out by Karehi:

Karehi is calling the main character Raito, when it should be Light as explained by the mangaka in one of the volumes. Though I just set them straight, so they should correct this when they start releasing the series. Probably lots of groups will be doing this, so hopefully one of them is great because this series deserves it.

"Light Yagami is an ace student with great aspects who`s bored out of his mind. One day he finds the Death Note a notebook held by a shinigami (Death God). with the Death Note in hand, Light decides to create a perfect world. A world without crime or criminals. However when criminals start dropping dead one by one, the authorites send the legendary detective L to track down the killer."

Holy Shit ! I can't wait for this ! been reading the manga and was quite amazed! cheers!

I am not a manga reader, but this series certainly caught my attention and kept me interested. It is awsome that they are turning it into an anime, it would have been a crying shame if the did. I hope the anime doesn't dissappoint.

I will be eagerly waiting to see what becomes of this.

I can't wait for this, the manga is fucking awesome! One of the new series I'll definately be following!

Alright!!! The anime is finally here!
:D

To top it all off, the Live Action movie will actually be screened in the cinemas in Singapore!!! Man, couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the poster and trailers in the subway station. Opening on 19 Oct, can't wait for it!
:D

Fucking awesome. I rarely read mangas but Death Note was one I just couldn't put down no matter what.

Looking forward to the anime. Better not disappoint.

I've heard a lot of good things about the manga so I have high expectations for the series.

DYNOMITE~!

Deathnote was definatly one of my favorite mangas, and there were plenty of twists and surprises. I cant wait to see which groups will be fansubbing the anime. :D

Edit: I looked the anime up on anidb, and I saw that there there will only be 37 eps, so that means there will probably be ALOT of manga chapters summed up in each episode, which is a good thing in my opinion (Keeps the anime fresh and exciting, just like bleach). Best of all, we wont have to worry about fillers :)

37 would be a good pace, but not "a lot" of manga chapters per ep. But with 37, it does seem that there won't be any fillers. Perhaps I'll also look into this one since the manga was good - thanks for the heads up Budweineken.

The RAW is here.

Death Note 01- RAW

Now we need is a subbed version. Any takers?

Been waiting for this for a while. I hope they'll make it as good as the manga

TW (toriyama's world) SUB!!
=)

Nice to see TW subbing it, just hope they don't use a month to sub the next episode :S

Based on the first episode this looked like a really interesting antihero series. Those are quite rare as it is, so in that sense it has also an inherent value beyond regular means of measurement. But also objectively speaking everything seemed to be in order in this series, technically and artistically. I do have a bit hard time seeing how this can support 37 episodes, but that's only because I haven't read the manga and thus I'm unaware of all the adventures there will be. But from what I've read in this thread, any such worries are needless.

Is AK of Troy translating? He gave up on Bleach when they were working on it and left all translator responsabilities with Dragosmore.

He seems to be translating. AK of Troy, that is.

Live-evil released Episode 01

v2 for TW:
http://a.scarywater.net/naruto/[TW]_Death_Note_EP01v2_[9751C0B5].avi.torrent

TW should be releasing the best version of this series.


[04:32] <Link_74> why the V2 so soon?
[04:32] <@Squirrellord> people just didn't like the font, so we changed it

Edit: Signs got fucked up in the v2 and some names were changed incorrectly... I recommend you keep the first version.

This show looks very interesting, as Kraco said, anti-heroes don't seem to get done very often, but they can be very refreshing if done well. From all the popularity the manga seems to have I can only assume this show will deliver.

Don't expect the TW version to be as good as they used to be. They are some random members who called themselves TW. Just about the only original member is the translator, most of the old members of TW don't want anything to do with this group releasing Death Note.

Heck, they are fucking up with the v2 changing official names. They are forum members, not the actual group.
