Death Note: Desu nôto

They changed alot tho like alot some of the changes made me happy and some not that much, im not gonna spoil anyone but if u liked the anime then i think u should rly consider watching this one.

I liked the show. But actually the anime still much better a million times than this. It is impossible to make some realistic tv show closed to the Anime master piece

This is an acceptable adaptation of the source material.. with restrained content and decent execution, but with enough changes to make it different.

But I ask.. what is the reason to make some very important foundational changes that will ripple throughout the series, when the rest of the story will try to remain the same? There's no reason to change Light, of all characters, to be a wimpy fanboy. What was Light 's ego is now desperation and weakness.. and now the character isn't as much fun to watch or root for, and missed the point. Instead, this series seems to be made with L at its core, affecting many other things in the way.

There's also some cheap CGI, lots of conveniences, poor explanations and rushed developments that make this something of a chore to get through.

If it's not going to be like the best version of it, for those that decide to watch this first.. it could ruin the experience. And for those that have already seen it, there's nothing to gain from it.

Honestly, watch the faithful Anime adaptation or read the original Manga instead..

It was so good.the actors of light and L were great.the music was great.It was a little different from anime but It did'nt ruin it.

I really like this live action mini series version of Death Note. It is a very engrossing story and has a much better pace than the anime series. The anime started out as a masterpiece and then drug on and on forever with a tedious conclusion. This is a reworking of the original and I actually like the live action story tweaks a lot. Light is also much more likable instead of a genius egomaniac. I also found the L character to be very likable and smartly played by the actor. Misa is also less annoying. Some fans of the anime have commented on the changes that were made. I think they were definitely for the better. About the only place I have been able to find this series is on Crunchyroll.
