Death Note

[WRX Sti]

omg i just watched ep 36, this is a bad place to stop an ep cant wait for next episode...

[Xyrox]

To me, they're all dead, light included.

My greatest concern being Ryuk, totally absent for quite a long time...

c u

Then the everyone (well, every human) who knows about the Death Note would disappear, right? Sounds like a reasonable ending.

I wonder if they'll use any of the rules we've seen )when there's a pause in the middle of the episode)?

Argh, can't wait for the last episode, even though It's a little bit sad that Death Note is ending.

wouldn't it be cool if Light plan was actually perfect and Near was completely dumbfounded but... under excitement Mikami gets dyslexia and wrote the names wrong? oh and isn't there a rule that if you write a name wrong 3 times that person become Death Note Immune? (<--- btw, upon reading the rules of the note, that's the first thing i would have done)

4 times. And if you misspell on purpose, you die.

4 times. And if you misspell on purpose, you die.

its kind of easy tho... just tell someone else to write on the death note and make a mistake while telling them what to write. the person writing it isn't doing it on purpose.

[JaySee]

That'll just lead to a whole new laundery list of problems.

[David75]

That 4 mispells rule is interresting.
Didn't Light write multiple instances of a bad guy's name as a first try of the DN?
How many versions of the name did he try?
If he did more than Four, does that mean that the rule is counting trials in the order they were done? That would mean Light was lucky enough for the right spelling being in the Four first trials.

Next idea: when you don't know someone's name orthograph, and you do what light did, does that count as intentional mispelling?
Of course you do not change the orthograph intentionally, so maybe it"s ok, however you intentionally write multiple versions which are for the most wrong... since only one is correct.

I guess I'll have to rewatch first ep...

Death Note - 37 - [Ruberia]

Let the end come swiftly.

EDIT: YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!! I'll wait a day before I post my thoughts since there will be massive spoilers but I've got a whole treatise of angst to throw at this one.

[NeoCybercoin]

Yes you should wait with that since I wanna download the Kuro-Hana one. I can't wait @__@

[Harima Kenji]

*will hold comments as wel...*
*fights the urge to unload his thoughts*

[Knives122]

One word: GAY(with the way things played out at least)

[Xyrox]

*Can't hold the angst anymore*

This was just... Aaah! *Implodes*

(Will post serious comment later)

[Raven]

Am I the only one who liked it?

[Munchie]

that was weak.

[MFauli]

I hated it -.-

.....

I mean...what we saw was well presented...i just didnt like the content itself -.-

[masamuneehs]

I am quite satisfied with the content of this episode. Makes me smile from ear to ear.

I preferred the manga ending (same outcome, but different tone, slightly more suspenseful). Although I loved the portions that stuck to the manga (up until 15:45) I thought they did a pretty mediocre job with the very very end... Cinematic cliches coming out the ass...

are people seriously holding out for C&D to comment? Just, you know, avoid this thread for a day or two and people here can talk about it... I mean, the world doesn't stop for you because you're picky with fansubs...

[Psyke]

I've yet to get the last volume of the manga, so I didn't know what was going to happen.... but I really liked how it ended. I thought L coming to see his "only friend" was a nice touch, although like most of you guys said, it was a little cliche. And finally....

damn you Mikami!

[pandacon]

An ending like this, it's hard not to be dissappointed, though it was expected that it would end like this since the beginning of the series. Though I did just check out the manga ending, and it was like the live action movies ending, which I think I liked better, maybe only because of the interaction between Light and Ryuk.

[WRX Sti]

really didnt like the ending it was well presented though... also it was just so out of character for yagami light to act like that would've prefered if ryuk just killed everyone there

[Knives122]

damn you Mikami!

Seriously, this is what pissed me off when I finished the manga, Mikami pretty much fucked Light over. Near pretty much said that Light would've won if it hadn't been for Mikami doing that one stupid thing, Mello doing his part wouldn't have even mattered.

You are the biggest jackass in the world Mikami, and Light is a jackass for not telling Mikami that Takada was his responsibility.

ps: I think we can all agree that Misa jumped off that building?

[masamuneehs]

I didn't think Light acted out of character at all. He was arrogant and prattling even when it was clear he had lost. The fact that he tried to use Kira's god-like reputation among the people just shows how far he'd inflated his own ego. Light could never handle losing, so it's not surprising that he blubbers like a scared child when he's finally facing his end.

Matsuda rocked. Nate River for the win (Giovanni on the assist). Mikami gives up the game-winner.

Misa killed herself? I'd be fine with that... I thought she'd play a role somehow in the end, but turns out she was pretty much just eye-candy for the past couple episodes she's been in...

“No. You are just a murderer. And this book is the worst weapon in history.

If you were a normal person... if you had seen the extent of this tool's power just once, if you had used this notebook just once, you would have been horrified by what can be brought by it, you would have feared it, and regretted what you had done. And you never would have used it a second time...

I could understand someone who would kill countless people for their personal gains. I would even consider that normal. But you lost yourself to the Shinigami and to the power of the notebook, mistakingly thinking you could become God.. A crazy mass murderer, that's all you are. Nothing else.

Even if there is a God and his word existed, even then I'd stop and think for myself. I'd decide for myself whether his teachings are right or wrong. After all, I am just the same as you. I put faith in my own convictions as to what I believe is right...

You are most certainly no “God”, for one. And having you tell people how to lead their lives, and having people live accordingly, is neither peace nor justice as far as I'm concerned. Calling yourself God and killing people indiscriminately is definitely evil in my book.”

I disagree with some of it, but I'd much rather side with this reasoning than Light's.
