    Light's awesome. It's interesting how more and more people are cheering for Kira and liking what he does.

    I was a little surprised he killed the conn man and the security woman, whatever their names were. Usually he's had some twisted kind of reasoning for all his killings so far but that just seemed pointless.

    I agree with Comp, seems like now L's gone all the challenge has left the situation for Light; he really seemed to love the thrill of the chase and having to outsmart L. Now he's all like "meh, I guess I'll create my perfect world then, dunno why though".

    Oh, and we finally see why was this episode was called Reincarnation, it makes sense now. Actually, didn't they call it Resurrection or something last week? That was more confusing especially since a main character had just died.

    Does anyone know when the story was supposed to have started. I noticed they said in 2012 Light joined the national police, so has there been a time skip, and if so how big?
    To have the correct timeline, maybe you can take into acount that Light just entered the university.
    Since he was so brilliant, he didn't miss any year, but he could have jumped some...
    I'm not that sure, but I think he was 17 at the start of the show?

    It's a 5 year time jump, from 2007 to 2012. It was 2004 to 2009 in the manga.

    I want to start watching this series, but I'm not sure what subgroup is the best (I didn't read the whole thread because of possible spoilers). Can anyone advise me a good group?

    That ep at least was a relief, there won't be a break lasting several months... so we'll have the whole 37 eps in a row.

    Very good news.

    And as Raven pointed it, I also think Light is less cautious than he was. Being at the head of the police, with the tremendous underground abilities Watari and Ryuzaki left... he should just be smart enough to go on cautiously, while being efficient. Killing those 2 spies wasn't proof of cautiousness...
    It seems that Light as got problems with foreigners, because he wasn't very cautious with Penbar, the other FBI agents and Misora either...

    Removing the very skilled spy/conman who were close to L wasn't cautious? If anything I'd call it over-cautious futureproofing. Besides, weren't they actually criminals?

    I'd say it was a good move, came as a bit of a surprise though.

    you mean a good group you can actually find downloads for?

    I think the only group that started the series that's still subbing it is Animanda. They're fairly good, I'd give them a B+. They're a bit slow though.

    Most of the discussion now tends to be based on whoever's released the latest ep. So after you reach the end of Animanda episodes, you could switch over to Kuro-Hana. They're ... well, I guess they started out pretty bad, but based on their last 2 eps, I'd give them about a B-. Pretty watchable, but not perfect.

    The audio cut out on both of the Animanda releasers when I played them with MPC but not zoom player or even Windows Media Player (Using latest CCCP). Anyone else have a problem with the playback?

    The audio seems to work fine for me in MPC with both release, try upgrading your codec maybe?
    I use the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack., lots of crap in it that i don't even understand what they do, but at least i know that, i have 0 video/audio problem since i started using that codec pack

    Maybe because the team wasn"t ready at the time and they had to wait?

    Damn recaps... This is probably the worst kind of series to just jump in in the middle and think you would still get everything out of it. Well, I guess some textbook requires them to make recaps no matter what manner of series.

    It just occurred to me, refreshing my memories with this thread, that what happened to Rem's sand? Considering all the shinigami abilities, I think that sand could be used for interesting things. Like an invisible glass dagger, or something. Invisible for everybody else but those who have touched the book. With L and Watari gone, of course there's nobody left but boneheads aside from Light so it's purely theoretical - Light probably threw the sand away - but still...

    A dagger would have no effect, remember the thug in the bus that tried to shoot ryuk? bullets went straight through him, so one wouldn't even be able to create a dagger.

    I'd like to think that the stuff that Rem turned into was just normal sand and rust.... But interesting thought about how it can be used to aid those who has touched the Death note previously.

    Well, the shinigami are able to eat local apples and touch locks of hair and such, so their material must have some solid properties. And of course if it wasn't solid, it would have fallen straight through the floor... Still, more wise than creating a dagger would of course have been to analyze the dust. Maybe it would have revealed a way to build a shinigami sensor. But with Light as a boss, no such things would naturally happen.

    In fact it seems Shinigamis can control the interraction their body and matter from our plan of existence.
    I would guess this is a concious action, which could let us think that the sand, being inert, can't interact with matter from our plan of existence.
