    English version: aw those poor humans
    Japanese version: 3:09 roasting session

    Sad thing is that Ryuk and Rem’s descriptions of humans certainly have some truth to them.

      Perspective and truth are not the same thing,.

    Damn this feels less rem focused and more Ryuk focused. Even the title change reflects it. I love how slightly different the feels are.

    I like the Japanese lyrics better (after listening to both versions quite some time). I feel that Rem is pitying the humans and that Ryuk is just bored out of his mind and wants something to do. In the English version I don't really get that. Acting may play a part in that too of course. Just a different way of portraying the roles. Also the ending of this version: how about this? Makes sense, but the English version is saying something like 'let's call'. I don't get that. Both have great lyrics though. Just my opinion. Thanks for the lyrics video, makes it easier to pick up some words in my vocab.

      "Let's call" - like in response to a bet, probably.

      To me, after listening to the English version many times, it sounds like ryuk genuinely doesn’t care about humans at all. He likens them to ants and that’s exactly what humanity is to him. But rem has a curiosity and interest starting especially around humans feeling love but ryuk doesn’t care for such things, he just wants to see chaos. Their opening lines describe them perfectly “look at how they crawl around, across the ground like little ants” “yes but how they fascinate”. This musical just made me love the anime and manga even more!

      Right, that could be it! I always found it a bit strange because they aren't really 'calling' like grim reapers. They are just going down to look and in Ryuks case, have some fun.

      So happy you've come back! Who would interest in Death Note musical without you?!
      Thanks for this beautiful song! Rem's and Ryuk's voices are wonderful in this duet and besides... Their lines fit so well the characters, don't you think? There is Rem's fascination for mankind, and maybe also a bit of pity for them, whereas Ryuk is full of scorn and amusement for the futility of men's life. So well done!
