This is an amazing show :eek:
Easily found in subtitles via youtube and other sites go watch now!

Synopsis in spoiler code for those who don't wanna spoil a thing :)

Shinigami own notebooks called “Death Notes” which are used as killing devices. Whoever’s name they write down in a death note will die within 40 seconds. Shinigami Ryuk dropped his Death Note in the human world where it’s found by honor high school student Light. With the death note actually having directions in it for its use, Light discovers he now has the power to discreetly kill people, and with this new power he plans to change the world in his ideal world by killing off criminals. Eventually the governments of the countries around the world notice the unusual amounts of deaths of their criminals, and figure out someone is behind them, but they have no way of discovering it themselves. That’s when they hire L, a master detective, to find out who is behind the murders.

Ill watch it in a minute and comment here later.

Yeah. That actually sounds really gay.

It doesn't really sound like the greatest show in the world though to be honest. I will watch it and comment after though :D

Complete turd.

I watched the first 10 minutes of the first episode and thought it sounded pretty decent so I've got the first 13 episodes dling. Although this does mean I probably won't finish the first episode until the whole thing finishes dling in like a week >_>

That synopsis makes it sound wank, when in fact, this is probably the best anime out right now. I prefer it to bleach, or naruto.

Razor

I didn't write the synopsis copy and paste ftw.

Have to agree with you though it is the best anime out right now.

I was sceptical, episode 7 clinched it for me, and then episode 13 clinched it again.

I'm loving it, and it is actually smart and thought provoking.

Right, after everyone's been raving so much about this (and I am/was bored) I thought I'd give it a go. Never really watched an anime before tough (bar a couple of Naruto episodes)

Only watched the first episode so far, but I really like it. It is quite interesting to watch him change throughout it.

But what are the Shinigami? And is his name really 'Light'?

Really like the music as well. Anyone know where I could get hold of that? (PM, msn, please)

I hate you guys. Razor, Azure, do not tell me of any anime ever again.

Death Note is ****ing quality. I'm just waiting for episode 6 to buffer (you all know how crap my net is). So far every episode has been quality.

Episode 2 was quality and 4 and 5 as well. Love the way he pulled it off and killed the FBI agents. He is getting way to cocky though. Can't wait to see if they are really going to meet L or if it's just another trick. Talking about a cliffhangar at the end of 5 though.... Why is my net so slow?

I am now getting into this, just finished episode 5 and things are really starting to get into Gear. It is really thought provoking and is something different to the norm.

However although i have only seen up to episode 5 so far i could see from a mile away that Ray Penbars wife would go after him. However his plan had been flawless to that point, they even made a big deal of 'her' in the conversation and it apparently does not cross his mind once that she may be a problem


Anyhow, very good, but i think i will slow down my watching a bit, geting through them too quick :)

Cheers.

I'm on episode 8 now and it's quality, although my FF decided to crash halfway through, so I'm downloading it now.

Can't believe that L actually went into the school exams.

Finished downloading it now.

How much time passes between the end of the exams to the ceremony? And Light is getting more and more deluded.

I've watched the first 7 episodes today and this show is absoloutely amazing.

carocat

Just watched all episodes up to 16. I'm liking the story a lot.

But the whole renouncing the Death Note and forgetting all about it doesn't make sense really. Also, how did L know that Misa was the second Kira?

Razor
06-02-2007, 04:44 PM
They had DNA evidence of hers on the last video tape.
Im not sure how Light plans to sort out the situation but he's gotta have something up his sleave.

carocat
06-02-2007, 04:49 PM
Oh, so the hairs were hers? That makes sense I suppose.

He renounced Rem's Death Note and still had the memory of it. And he just buried it and didn't give it back, or did he?

Couldn't find it on Stage6 when I checked last, and I'm using a d/l accelerator so that might be why I'm getting better speeds.

Wow what a sneaky ****, thing is though now light is all resolved to catch Kira how is he ever going to get it back? Or is he never going to get it back? Will the death note just be passed from hand to hand getting worse and worse whilst L and Light try and capture it? If his memory has been properly wiped then when he gets it back then Ryuk will fill him in and then what will he do? I really hope light gets the death note back though personally. I dont want a new character to start his own arc with it

Still the original, and best.

You can download it from a site called stage 6. Tis well good.

Episode 17 on stage 6: http://stage6.divx.com/members/487917/videos/1111200#

Pretty darn awsome episode, quite intrested about what Light's plan is to get the death note back or just for someone else of like mind to conitnue with it. Either way I don't really like the whole coperate fools in the basement thing hopefully that won't last long.

carocat
08-02-2007, 11:32 AM
The coporate fools thing was a bit odd. And I agree in hoping it won't last long.

Light will need to get the Death Note back, they can't get a new character.

And I miss Ryuk!

Episode 18 is out now but not on Stage6 just yet. You can get it direct from here (http://everyanime.com/index.php?page=Content/Media/Anime.php&do=download&anime=48) but don't be expecting speeds over 100KB/s, or I'm sure there's a torrent for it somewhere.

carocat
14-02-2007, 11:11 PM
Just finished watching it.

The whole Identity crisis with L and the cop quitting were odd. Why is he crying?

What makes me wonder though: It's all this time going past and there are all these murders yet they don't really seem to do anything about it.

Also interesting that a borrower of a Death Note can't see the Shinigami and therefore not trade for the eyes, I suppose it makes sense. Is there a timelimit on how long the Death Note can be borrowed for?

Talking about eyes, does Misa still have the eyes?

I'm quite looking forward to next week with the introduction of the 2 new people.

Dark
18-02-2007, 02:35 AM
No Misa loses the eyes but she doesn't get half her life span she gave up back. But i wonder how long the Death Dod that died had left because doesnt that mean she could live to be 150 or something if say the Death God had 300 years left?

Also how exactly is light going to get out of this and is it Rem doing the murders at the moment im not sure if i missed something but i'm confused about that.

Dont think there's a time limit on borrowing, i spose its until the owner dies or stops using it.

I think the cop was crying because he is sad tht he has stopped working on the case but also because of how he has rejected his family and he's emotional because of something like this although im not really sure.

So you're saying the Death God who died for her gave her his life span? really.

Cheers for the other explanations. :)

Dark
18-02-2007, 03:27 PM
Yep im definately sure the Death God who died passed on his remaining life span to Misa. Don't know if he did it intentionally or not though because it said somewhere that even Death Gods don't know much about the Death Note. She also got the Death Note that belonged to that Death God. But i want to know how much life span that Death God had left! That would make things more interesting.

What i dont get is if there is another God working wit those corporate people or is that Rem acting on instuctions from Light. And has light disowned his Death Note yet because if he has i dont know how i missed it and if he hasn't he's doing a good job of convincing people he's o there side. Whats he going to do from here? I remember him telling Ryuk about disowning the Death Note but im sure he said only when he gave the signal.

The quality is 10000 x better than youtube and takes no time to buffer for me.

zcaliber
25-02-2007, 03:50 PM
admitedly stage 6 can be complete shite sometimes, like bowser says the search doesn't work very well, and the speed is very eratic, it's either amazing or bloody slow.
It's not even at beta stages yet though, so it is bound to get better. Keep supporting it and spreading the word, the more people who know about it the more likely we're likely to be able to watch our anime on it

just tried to watch episode 21 on stage 6 but the voices were wrong. they had different people talking when it should have been someone else so i ended up watching it on youtube instead
