Excellent youtuber move dropping this right when folks are discovering you during the AoT reaction viewing. Well done sir.
Yessss.. U choosed the good one.
god bless you for at last making reaction of this anime.. one of the best classic
I dont wish to be rude or anything but japan has alot of people who have a similar thought process as Light. I was reading this article about a japanes professor saying japans old people "Mainly Those that are occupying leadership positions in business and politics" should commit mass suicide to make room for Younger generation , But guess what He gained alot of fame , he gained thousands of followers on social media in Japan among resentful youth who believe their economic progress has been held back by the aging society.
you have now seen 2 out 3 of the DARK anime.... DN and AOT... only CG left.
In Japanese you can write the same name using different characters.
When he killed the Biker guy he wrote all possible ways in which the dudes name can be spelt in Japanese.
That's the question I have since I don't know how many years and now its been answer at a random comment I read. Thanks
yea itâs like trying Eric, Erich, Erikk, Erik, Erick, or EirikâŠsomething like that

That and sometimes the same kanji can be pronounced different ways. Light mentions a few times that his name is written like "moon" but pronounced "Light".
People usually recommend Death Note as a "beginner-friendly" series because it's a very good series, at the same time that it's more palatable for those who watch other things (movies, series). It's a middle term between extreme animeish stuff and the things you are already comfortable watching, so it's a good series to prepare someone into what they might expect from anime media. :)
Have a great watch!
exactly, this show is very similar to other non-anime series, it has fantasy, but appart from that itÂŽs just a polices/mysteries/thriller show, i would say that itÂŽs comparable to Sherlock HolmesÂŽ novels, where itÂŽs all about "good guys" and "villans" trying to outsmart each other. That is what makes it such a great anime to start the journey.
edit: also no black and white, greys everywhere, writing masterpiece.
I definitely think this is one that I should watch at the start of the journey.
Which so far we've only done 1 anime on CZcams so Death Note feels like the next step đŻ
I think the idea of something like Death Note as "beginner friendly" is to shatter the idea of "anime = cartoons" early and hard by introducing something jarringly "mature" in contrast. From there, once you've established that the medium doesn't dictate the audience, you can then start exploring less extreme options. And I think it's really important to explore the less extreme options, lest you swing too hard toward the opposite side, re-establishing that the medium _does_ dictate the audience, except this time that "anime = rated R".
I do think Luke might need a lighter palette cleanser after this, rather than the multitude of other dark seinen/dark shounen (dark gritty series aimed toward older men, or younger boys, respectively) series that seem to be flooding the top of his recommendation list. Dark seinen/dark shounen tends to be the most vocal genres, especially in the West, where it largely hooks young men in their teens to mid twenties on the thought process of "gratuitous violence = mature, and mature = not for kids, therefore gratuitous violence is how I prove I'm an adult man with adult man tastes". And it just so happens that people who are drawn to these sort of EXTREME ANIME are going to be the most vocal about their anime preferences being the best. Let's just say the type of people who watch quiet anime about "a single father learning to cook good nutritious meals for his young daughter" aren't going to be the ones aggressively shouting down your throat that you "NEED TO WATCH THIS RIGHT NOW!!!", even though Sweetness & Lightning is great, wholesome, and very well made.
I think either a good "slice of life" or a good gut-buster comedy could be a good palette cleanser after his current lineup before jumping back into more gritty stuff. I'm not asking to hard-swerve into shoujo romance or magical girls (yet), nor to leave dark seinen/dark shounen entirely; just something neutral to re-center his expectations and broaden his horizons.
@@dragonbretheren i actually voted for re:zero, but you may be right that after these he may need a pallet cleanser, or he will end up thinking that every anime has a dark messed up story, something like kono-suba, but heÂŽs also watching other things on twitch so idk, i guess FMA will be ok, or re:zero or Overlord, as long as heÂŽs also watching lighter stuff at the same time.
@@dragonbretheren the thing is that most people recomend these ones because appart from been absolute instant classics, he already stablished that this is the type of stories he prefers.
Yeah, this anime goes hard. It is up to you whether you root for Light or not. The entire show is about the conflict of morals, the question of whether or not this is the correct choice to make. It's amazing.
Also, in case you didn't pick it up, a Shinigami is a japanese god of Death.
Ah okay! Thank you for explaining! I'm interested to see where this show takes my emotions đŻ
death note is hardly about a conflict of morals. the subject is rarely ever brought up. it's a mysterious cat and mouse game.
â@@sb17899bruh seriously ? You should rewatch it. That theme was brought up so many times
â@@sb17899I have never seen an anime before. I was recently put onto Death Note and even though I'm only halfway through the theme of moral ambiguity is already extremely apparent to me. I'm not sure what led you to the conclusion that DN doesn't call for the viewer to question their own morals, but I strongly recommend you rewatch the show through a new lense.
Lemme just say, Luke, that you're asking the EXACT right questions, and that most of them actually DO get answered. This is by far one of the most intelligently written Anime, and it makes sure to give precise details on its ruleset and give reason as to why everything happens the way it does. There's a reason this is one of the standard Anime every fan puts as a must-watch.
In fact I canât think of a single anime more intelligently written. Lupin? Detective conan? Dr. Stone? Nothing is so carefully crafted as Death Note.
@@yozarian86 one of the benefits of an author and artist duo manga is definitely that the writing gets to have more time dedicated to it. I think this series shows that really well.
Ah looking forward to this journey!
@@yozarian86 Try Monster. It doesn't have supernatural elements but it is one of the most well crafted stories ever.
@@yozarian86 i would say that Code Geass is almost up there, but not quite, DN is brilliant.
Edit: oh @Pedro Martinez is right, Monster is also amazing.
Yayyyyy letâs begin this journey! Hope you enjoy this show đ
Death Note is the best anime beginners.
It just addicts the beginners into anime without sweat.
Here we go!!
@@Sushan1 i wouldn't say the best, its great, dont get me wrong, but its not the best starting anime for alot of people with the slow-ish start
@@itszefas I said it to be the best for starters cuz it don't have a complex storyline and drives into it immediately mainly after the second episode. Like for one of the best anime for beginners Demon Slayer. It doesn't immediately grab your attention as a beginner because of it's comparatively slow pacing.
Death Note have straight and clear story but the storytelling and unpredictably and the cliffhanger on the each episode tends more viewers to stay and continue with the next episode.
Also, There might be a lot of anime better than this for complete beginners but not that many of the beginner ones are that famous than death note. Being so famous, it tends many people to try it just once and the storytelling drives them further.
@@Sushan1 its not bad for beginners, it is one of the best ones, but i just think the start bit is quite slow if you're not super excited to get into it, some people i know dropped it initially because it was way too slow and they got bored, it was almost always before L shows up and finds light, after that i do agree its great for beginners
OMG I've been waiting for this moment! The truth is that this was my first Anime and since then I have been able to discover many experiences in their stories. I hope you enjoy it!
Definitely an anime I think I need to watch and glad I finally am!
â@G.O.T Games Naah, Death Note is just slightly creepy. Made in Abyss is the most horrifying Anime I've seen. Maduka Magica and The Promised Neverland are also great horror anime. Some of the cutest looking anime are actually horror. Those 3 all have very cute art.
I love how well Death Note carries on the mood of Attack of Titan... AoT is about watching Eren's seemingly slow descent into the god-like being trying to destroy everything...
And then there's Death Note with Light going "I AM GOD" literally in the first episode LOL.
Your first pronounciation of Ruyk at around 17:30 was definitely the most accurate :)
Also, this show is phenomenal, unfortunately it suffers from the last third-ish being noticeably less impressive in the writing than the prior parts, it's still great imo, but I think knowing that going in might help appreciate it better without expectations of it living up to the start.
Okay! Thanks for the heads up!
This is a top-tier show. Trust me, you won't regret watching it :)
Looking forward to watching it with you all!
Yes, please do Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood after Death Note. It was so close to winning the poll.
Someone explain to him how to watch the original FMA episodes before switching over to Brotherhood. THAT hits the hardest.
@@HadassaMoon144 FMA and FMA Brotherhood are both good and I don't doubt that he will watch both eventually, but only Brotherhood was part of the poll, and I don't think it actually matters which one he watches first.
Shinigami means God of death
It's the subs fault for not translating well that part but it's just a small detail too
Enjoy this amazing series.đ„
I watched this show as it aired, and when it finished i told myself i would not rewatch it until i had forgotten basically everything so that i can watch it fresh again, its been nearly 16 years since then, im so excited to re-expereince this masterpiece.
I think going right into Fullmetal Alchemist is a good idea, its a really good followup and would probably win the tournament again anyway haha.
With the second guy Light killed, He wrote down all the possible spellings of his name to make sure he dies. Such a cool detail. You'd better keep an eye out for a lot more to comeđ
11:53 Light wrote here that guy's name in all possible variations of characters which most people miss and it really shows how smart Light is
edit: 19:13 I think this is a reference that isn't in the anime (?) but in manga Ryuk said that the person who used the note to kill somebody, will experience their death after they die, e.g If i would kill somebody with a heart attack, then after i die, i would feel that cause of death too, and it applies to every killed person
Hoho Light is gonna be having a LOT of heart attacks đ€Ł
No? There wasn't such a sing anywhere, lol. In the manga in the end it was revealed that there's no afterlife at all.
That's from a fan written manga
Pretty sure I saw this same exact fanfic manga on CZcams, it isn't real
@Rage Kage no. There's no afterlife in general. Have you read the manga?
In regards to whether the death needs to be realistic. I'll just say keep watching, more rules to the Death Note will be unveiled later on.
so excited that you're starting this and i'm sure you won't be disappointed! this anime makes scenes of someone writing names feel so ominous and epic! love it!
As for FMAB i'm fine with you finishing Death Note first as long as you'll be getting to FMAB eventually. In some aspects i feel you can benefit from doing fewer stories at a time, especially with Death Note that's so cleverly written, you'll be needing that brain power XD
I have a suggestion for your next reactions. You already know the anime that people on your channel want to see, the ones in the surveys. You could see something like a trailer for them and react to the one that most catches your attention. The votes will always be biased by different factors, you should also choose something that suits you
one of the main reasons Death Note is called "a beginner's anime" is because it serves as a good example that anime is not only for kids etc
Hope you enjoy this series as much as I did. Can't wait for FMAB! One is all, and all is one.
fâŠ..what? Ah, full-metal alchemist brotherhood?
@Silk Sonic so are all anime
FMAB reaction next would not be it just saying
Am I the only one who prefers FMA over FMAB?
@@crispychicken9298 I prefer FMAB, but I really wish more people gave FMA credit. It's still great and there's a couple things that I think it surpasses FMAB in.
I wish reactors would watch FMA before FMAB because it makes FMAB better if you've seen the 2003 one, but it does take way longer to watch both and FMA isn't as popular, so I understand why
I think Code Geass would thematically fit right in after Death note and AoT, and itâs also a very great anime.
Honestly I would say this series and FMAB are some of the most worth-while to watch in the English dubbed versions.
Shut the fuck up dubtard; The dub is dogshit; Thankfully he has a brain and is watching the correct version
FMAB is definitely one you want to see dubbed all voice actors were perfectly cast with the best names in the industry.
Shinigami are Gods of Death, kind of like Grim Reapers, they make sure people die when it is their time to die.
The Japanese dub is really good, but the English dub (in my opinion) is better. There is A LOT of dialog in this show and the Japanese subtitles are a little hard to keep up with and (in my opinion) a little too wordy. BUT everyone likes what they like, so my suggestion is to re-watch the first episode on your own but dubbed in English and choose which version you like better. (This is what I do for all my anime's, I watch the first episode in both languages and then decide which one I vibe with more, sometimes its the Japanese sometimes it's the English, everyone is different.) When you watch FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood do the same thing, first episode in Japanese and English because this is another anime that they dubbed really well. I vote yes, start FMA:B (make sure it is the Brotherhood version there is another version of just FMA) right away. Have fun! đ
Death Note is a masterpiece. A must watch classic. Everything is excellent or at least very good, the music, the animation, the color paletee, sound effects, the mind games, the suspense, etc. Wait for it. In the next episodes things will happen
You caught onto Light being messed up and psychotic super early XD
Love this show. Just wanted to say you could totally watch this 1 in English. The dub is so good and Light's VA is chilling
The majority of the English cast is great too
facts
Shut the fuck up dubtards; The dub is DOGSHIT; Thankfully he has a brain and is watching the correct version of Death Note
Yep, this and Code Geass are great in English dub. Maybe FMAB too (started it in English and finished in Japanese)
@@someguy3508 Hellsing is also great in English. Hellsing Ultimate (the reboot or whatever) too iirc.
Nice reaction! I've always been curious about how many people Light actually killed in the show. I think I found he answer. From MatPatts' calculations (he's a CZcamsr who's into Disney and anime theories), calculated that Light might have killed over 200,000 people with his death note... His average is about 60 names per day.
I'd definitely like to see you do dubbed for Death Note. It is a fantastic dub.
Same. I canât watch this in sub anymore. Really sad how all the sub nazis get these reactors to give in and do sub all the time when the dub is just as good and/or better. Smh đ€Šđ»ââïž if he does FMAB in sub too Iâll be unsubbing.
@Robin Sailo not a dub nazi. Just think the viewers should let the native English speaker watch the anime in his native language so he doesnât miss key points. There were many times in his AOT reactions where he literally was asking question that were already answered in the episode. He missed the answers because he couldnât keep up with reading the subtitles. God forbid he were to actually watch the anime in English and ppl start acting like the world is ending. đ
@Robin Sailo congratulations. However Iâm not talking about those other ppl. Iâm talking about THIS reactor.
Yes I think it'd be nicr if you just start Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood right after you're done with this one. I think you'd like it. Also, it's been years since the last time I've watched Deathnote so I'm really looking forward to watching this along.
So glad I subscribed to this channel. Watching someone who never watched anime get this hype for it is almost better than watching it for the first time myself. And leave it to the people to recommend two amazing first animes to watch for this man. Gonna be fun watching you turn into a full on fanboy/weeb in a few years.
This is just a taste of the perfection that is Death Note. I guess I understand when people say it's a beginner anime, but it gets very cerebral very quickly, which isn't very beginner friendly. But damn is it captivating. You're definitely gonna wanna pay attention to details and keep track of the death note rules. đ
In case you wondered. Shinigami is a term from japanesse that transaltes into "God of Death". Ryuk is one of many death gods there. And each one of them is carrying such notebook ;)
Just to confirm every shinigami in the shinigami realm has a deathnote ryuk ended up getting a second one probably from taking it from a shinigami who died
I'm kinda scared, that your first questions weren't "Does this work?" or "Who thinks of something like that?", but "Can I kill him with a Tsunami on a volcano in a desert? Just asking. đ"
đđđ
I recommend watching Death note in dub, because it's easier to understand the show that way, most people who watch the sub get a bit lost. Also, the dub is amazing!
17:08
This is why I love this guy. That reaction is what I'm here for and yes.
He actually has kill that many people in just 5 days.
Episode 2 is where it picks up by a lot. Every question you have and will have will be answered. Thatâs part of why this show is so good is the lack of holes in the story
Also yeah, fmab would be great after dn since itâs shorter. Also also, the protagonist of fmab has the same va as hange
Throughout this show, there are a lot of religious references, so gl trying to pick up on all of them. From the music, to intro, to actions, etc
I feel like clearing most, if not all the anime in poll votes descending order works for you. You'll have Death Note, FMAB, Re:Zero and Vinland Saga I presume to watch according to poll rankings.
This is a good anime for beginners because it's well written and will cacth and keep the attention of most the people until the end. It seems easier beginners to want to know more about anime and like them if they take this democratic route than watch random anime because some of those can be for a specific public or it can requires more background. Every person have their particular taste in anime i'm sure that you'll found yours. You have a reaction Channel so the votes are important so are your particular tastes because your reaction will be more interesting if you watch the shows that fits you.
Iâm personally glad you watch Japanese with subtitles. One of the nasty sides of anime is how the translators will change a lot of the subtle nuances of the dialog and story because they have to make the English lines fit into the 3.756 seconds of time they have to match the animated mouth movements. Iâve seen lots of series not even try to maintain the story integrity and just make up their own dialog that goes somewhere else entirely. Sometimes the best humor and drama gets lost entirely, and dubbed-only viewers never have any clue how theyâve been short changed. Also, youâll learn a lot more about Japanese culture and social differences by watching the subs that often get replaced with American references by translators âin order to make it more accessible to North American viewers.â Youâll learn a lot about the shinegami mythologies during this series, which is a cultural mythological spirit in Japan that has no real counterpart in the west.
the japanese honestly sounds very bad here and if he listened to the english version just once, i have no doubt he would like it 100x more.
Death note is one of the very few anime's I prefer in eng dub
Itâs not a question of how it sounds. Itâs a question of getting the original story with all its carefully crafted nuances vs an approximation of the story with altered dialog that actually introduces unintended meanings. Iâm not referring to Death Note specifically here, but to all translated series in general.
I mean, the same loss of nuance can happen with subtitles, too, whether fan or official. Besides, Death Note's dub is solid. You can't hold a generalization like that against all dubs.
I think I may know why you got the impression that the names in the book were from previous owners and not Light. When he wrote the name of the biker guy outside the store, the page was full of names. But it looks like he wrote the same name over and over, with slightly different spelling each time. Because he onlty heard the guys name, and didn't know the spelling. So he tried every possible combination to make sure he got him.
Mamoru Miyano performance as Light Yagami is truly Amazing đ„
Can you believe Okabe Rintarou and Light Yagami have the same VA?
One of the big classics, I always heard this one being voted best anime back in the day. One of my favorites from the OST has to be "Low of Solipsism" if you'd like a peak into the music. Plus the idea of solipsism is show related, so knowing that idea may provide some extra insight
Yayyy! Finally! I was so eager to see you react to this show and to watch it with you again. Hope you enjoy the ride! And yes, i vote for starting fullmetal alchemist brotherhood right after death note!
This is one of the few animes where i think the dub is on par , if not superior, to the sub. I just think the eng dub really captures how psychopathic light is as a person. So seeing you watch it dub would be pretty cool
Agreed man. Plus not having to read subtitles will make it easier for him to catch more details since this show is basically all info and little action.
Itâs good to get into sub and get used to it early on because in general there are more sub shows than dub and a lot of the times dub can be disappointing
Agreed!
Death note dub is better than sub,no matter what people say.
âââ@@kenethernandez6246 not able to read subs while watching is a skill issue. What's point if you don't watch something in it's orginal language.
@@kenethernandez6246I'm pretty sure reading has more of an effective to remembering and catching small details, though
Shinigami literaly means "death god" in japanese culture they are quite similar to the Wests grim reaper.
There should be an anime list board to keep track of his journey that would be interesting to see build up over time
Don't tell Luke about the chips, guys.
You're already making great predictions and thinking things through early (like the volcano tidal wave comment LOL), i knew this series would be great for you

Death Note was my first dark anime and it's sooo good. Great reaction as always. Looking forward to the next episode đ
Of the biggest "mainstream" anime, Death Note is the one that I truly appreciate. The writing, characters, and atmosphere are just such above the others.
Eyo , so I wanted to clear out that this goblin thing is a shinigami which in simple English words shinigamis are Gods of death in Japan and yes this book is belong to that shinigami (ryu
With regards to your question at 6:20-ish (can you use a Death Note to kill someone with a tidal wave in a desert), the exact limits and reach of the Death Note and learning what it can and can't do are a big part of the series. Also, interesting to see you watch this- it's an old-school anime, but it's got a reputation for a reason.
@Rage Kage The style, etc, is different enough from modern shows that I can't really count it as part of the same generation as them. It's not old old-school, like Fist of the North Star or something, but it's still old school.
...though then again, that might just be my perspective on the age of shows talking.
"A bit dark" - OH BOY you have NO idea. It's worth it though because the writing is fantastic.
Attack on Titan, Fullmetal Alchemist, Cowboy Bebop, and Death Note. Those are my go-to's whenever I recommend anime to someone who thinks anime isn't for them. They always respond positively.
I loved the manga so Iâm really excited to watch this with you! Thank you for choosing this series!
"I bet this anime will be a bit dark" - Dude, you just watched an anime that the protagonist trampled entire cities, there is no darker than that!
Thank you for doing this reaction with Japanese audio. I absolutely adore Mamoru Miyano as Light, and Kappei Yamaguchi as L đđđ
L is so cryptic that it can't even be called a spoiler, lol
@@LooKingG00d LOL youÂŽre so right
Im Japanese so naturally we consume these kinds of anime at a younger age compared to the world.
I remember when I was in elementary school, me and my friends used to write "death note" on the front page of a regular black note book, and pretended it was a actually death note. Writing names of the teachers and people we didn't like. I think we even drew pictures of them dying.
That is what death note is to an average Japanese boy. Not a masterpiece or a beginners anime , just a good anime we simply grew up with.
For the world it may be a rabbit hole you find when you're a adult but for us it was there all the time.
Simply one of the best works ever made in the universe
Shinigami means Death God in Japanese, like the grim reaper, itâs what Calliope Mori from Hololive is for her character too.
Amazing first reaction of the show. Really enjoyed seeing you so intrigued about it!
"Shinigami" can be translated as "Death(the personification)" or "angel of death", the "old man's back" they talked about might be God
The "oldman" is the king of Shinigami, the oldest and strongest so to speak. Every shinigami receives 1 death note from the oldman when they join the ranks. Ryuk is the only shinigami that has 2 death notes this is because he killed another shinigami and took theirs, furthermore Ryuk only dropped one he kept the other so he make sure the one he dropped ended up in the hands of someone interesting. He was prepared to kill as many people as it took to get the one he dropped into the hands of someone who would use it. Lucky for him that happened to be the first person to pick it up.
Mandatory watching for people that enjoy life bruh!! Incredible story.
Maybe that's why I dropped it...đ
@@solacee4327 damnâŠyou need to talk homie?
@@syntheticreality549 Nah man, I got the voices in my head to cheer me up dw XD
Iâll totally get behind Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood as your second pick after this one. The dub is amazing of that one.
Shinigami
From Shinu which means "to die"
and Gami which means "god or deity".
17:17
the reason why it is a "beginners" anime is not that it is soft content... quite the opposite... it goes so hard on the "psychological" aspect of it's plot that you just forget you are watching anime... so even viewers who say they do not like "Chinese cartoons" end up getting into it...
Death Note has opened the gate of anime to most of the anime fans today. This show is absolutely phenomenal. There's a reason why Death Note is still one of the most popular anime shows even though it has been more than 16 years since its release.
I must have missed at least 2 months of content?! Every time I was looking for something newâŠ. CZcams failed to show me this?! đąđđąđđąđ
In case you don't know it, the word "Shinigami" is a japanese word that means "God of Death". And his name is pronounced as "Reeuk".
I believe you should definitely start FMAB right after finishing this one!
funfact:
Death note anime has the same director as first 3 seasons of Attack on Titan
Let me tell you something. This show will rise many questions like the one you asked "if it you could do anything with the notebook" But don't worry, the show will answer all of them eventually!
This is one of the most classic and also, in my opinion, one of the best anime ever!
Can't wait for your reaction to the entire show!
At 12:36 you can spot Our man thinking profoundly with his hand in the same position as another particular character from this same anime, coincidently. This is gonna be good.
I believe this was the second anime I watched; at first I was skeptical about how the premise of a notebook that kills people could be expanded into a whole series while remaining interesting, but little did I know I was about to watch a masterpiece
I would suggest doing both DN & FMAB, if you can't do them together, one after the other would be great. Also, both of them have a great English dub, should you wish to watch them that way.
Death note was my first anime, it wasnât realy my first anmie but it was the anmie that got me into the genre and showed me anime is not just big eyes and big boobs.
đ„ł I'm SO glad this was the anime that came on top in the poll! Its story and plot are almost as well written as AoT's and same goes for the OSTs and the characters. It also was my VERY FIRST anime and STILL IS one of my favorites! It truely is a classic and stands up to expectations! I've been watching you for almost a year now and I know you'll enjoy this journey like I and so many of us did! Now be ready 'cause it will BLOW YOUR MIND! đ€Ż
(Also shinigami means 'God of Death' just in case your were to wonder in the future đ )
Death Note was my second anime. Changed my life, this oneâs crazyyyy.
I haven't seen anyone say this, but Shinigami roughly translates to Death God/Grim Reaper. Just so you understand the context when they talk about Shinigami like they've known about them for generations or something.
Glad to see you're watching and enjoying Death Note, been a while since I saw it and forgot how good the first episode is, hooked me right back in. Amusingly enough, Death Note was one of my beginner anime series as well back in '09 (if you don't count the ones I watched as a kid i.e. DBZ, Pokemon, Sailor Moon, etc.) and was followed right afterwards by Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, still my favorite anime series to this day. While it would be nice to see you watch and react to both series at once, it might be best to finish Death Note then move on to FMA: B so both series can have your undivided attention. That being said, if you do watch both at the same time (presumably both on CZcams) then I will be here to watch as well. The English dubs for both series are great as well, btw. Enjoy! :)
One thing to point out, is that Light has written the names of mostly prisoners. There's no indication that he has taken wrongful incarceration or extending circumstances into account. Not that straight up killing people, even if they are criminals is ok to begin with, but that adds to Light not being in the right.
I love that you question so much. Not new watcher either just new for seeing this. I wanted to see if on your patron but it seems to be removed sadly
I usually prefer anime in japanese, but the english voice over for death note is just miles better imo. You should really check it out and see what you think.
Mamoru is freaking awesome
Man his first anime was aot and now death note he got spoiled đ đ
this is one of my absolute favorite animes of all time and my first anime Ive ever watched! â€
enjoy this masterpiece and greetings and mutch love from Germany đ
Oh MAN your journey has began !!
Fun fact: Ryuk call him Light ,sounds like (R)ight !
Like ONE OC' LOCK sounds ONE OK ROCK ! đâ€
DeathNote and FMAB are the cult classic anime
and both are the staples for most YT anime reactors
I am glad you finally jump straight to anime rabbit hole
and since you love music, you will appreciate the epic-ness of anime soundtrack in both of them (not just the Op or Ed OST)
I think since FMAB was so close to winning after Death Note you should just slide into reacting to that after this anime. Like you said, Death Note is definitely a good starter anime and so is Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. Most people started with one or the other back in the day. Death Note is for sure one of my favorite anime.
hahaha i didnât ever think of Ryuk to be a goblin guy xD hell yeah he is!
thank you for watch it sub ,almost all youtobers watch it dub
The dub is amazing
I'm definitely gonna call Ryuk goblin guy from now on :D I've rewatched Death Note a couple of times over the years and every time I'm watching it I get the urge to eat apples because goblin guy makes them look so delicious and.... juicy! haha. Enjoy the show, Luke!
i mean, light is a psychopath indeed, but he also wanted a better world for everyone, that's why he decided to kill all the bad people, but it got out of hand, that's why there's people who support him and people who don't, the plot for this anime is amazing and i love it so so much, i'm sure you will too
Death Note is a classic! Hope you enjoy. I'd very much like you to check out FMA:B after.
I'll be looking forward to this. Classic anime, probably the first "not for kids" I watched, I was so invested in that story... The story of a kid that let his intrusive thoughts win lol
I'd recommend the dub for this series. For a show that throws so much information at you, it's much easier to keep track of stuff when listening to it in your own language. The performance is on par with the original Japanese at the very least so it's something to consider, it could improve your experience overall considering this anime doesn't contain much action and involves a lot of intricate diolague. Either way, hope you enjoy watching this great show.
You can watch it in Eng Dub as well. Itâs good in dub too
I just started rewatching Death Note tonight, talk about timing!
It is reallllly good, a great beginner anime as you mentioned! I love how it keeps the intensity of a thriller while also bringing up genuine philosophical questions like who gets to decide whatâs âjustice.â
A lot of people donât know that horror anime is a thing, but it absolutely is! I donât know that I would necessarily class this as one - this and like, Psycho Pass are definitely *dark* but theyâre more crime thrillers - but if you ever really want a horror, I recommend something like Higurashi When They Cry. You should check out the opening themes from both the original series and revival!
I think you can finish death note before go to FMAB to focus on one topic but its up to you đ thank you for reaction!
