    If you guys disliked Near that much, you ought to enjoy the live movie, which closes the loop without the time jump.

    Not necessarily. I havent watched the movie, but from what I hear, the ending wasnt really something to look forward to. Even without the near arc, if they fail to finish the story well, it would just be another disappointment. Id rather just imagine my own ending with Kira continuing to rule the world.

    Well, it seems that L preferred dying rather than accuse Light and put him in jail.
    But he could have thought of a scenario to take place after his death... that could have
    been nice.

    Instead, time jump and very boring near and mello. I wonder if they were better in the manga that they were in the anime.

    From wiki:

    A three-hour animated Death Note TV special, Death Note Director's Cut: Complete Ending Edition is scheduled to air on NTV on August 31, 2007 at 8:03 PM. It will be about Light Yagami and his rival L from the unique vantage point of Ryuk, Light's shinigami. It will contain new footage and dialogue that was not originally in the TV show.

    And since you guys seem to be big fans of L, you might want to check out www.L-movie.jp for a teaser trailer on the upcoming spin off movie, due February 2008.

    Whoa, amazing news. Thanks for that.

    I wonder what the L movie will be about. Maybe Ls adventures before Light got the deathnote?

    After all, maybe the scenarists found it obvious the L arc was far better than the Near/Mello one...

    To be honest I don't actually believe they intended the near/mello conflict with Kira to be "better" than the one with L. I think L vs Light was intended to be the ultimate climax of the series and bringing in near/mello towards the end for some interesting situations and see how light acts differently with his partners and stuff which leads to his downfall. A sort of cooldown so the followers of the story aren't just left hanging.

    My opinion anyway.

    I dont think they intended it to be as mediocre as it was either. Im pretty sure the L and Light battle was the climax of the series, but the Near one doesnt even come close. And if its is just to wrap things up, its a tad too long IMO.

    Nice find Psyke!

    Now I've got some more Death Note to watch. I hope the L movie tells us about how he gained his reputation as the greatest detective in the world by solving great crimes.

    Not that anyone cares anymore(which is possibly why I'm posting it), but the final volume of DN(after the series had ended) had L's name in it, so I figured I'd put it up for anyone that doesn't already know:


    Not very surprising...

    Heh, looks like most people felt the same way as me about the ending to this anime. Once that dude gets caught up, I'll post some of my thoughts on alternatives certain people could have used.

    Pssshh, don't wait for one guy to get caught up, it's been over for weeks now. Just post your thoughts, he won't see them anyway as he's been pm'd the links and won;t be back until he's seen it all.

    Crazyness uses anything for fuel...

    For optimistic ones, let's hope that these limbs were not taken after a murder.
    I remember a case were limbs were discovered, and they were from an already dead person (no murder) or maybe from surgical ops. This is very unlikely, but let's be
    optimistics.

    it's just another copy cat incidence...

    but, perhaps this is part of the reason why I disliked Yagami Light, and why I was shocked at how many fans he had. He's essentially just another killer; and looking up to that killer, even if it's just thinking that he's a cool anime character, is never good for people's minds or society. It's obvious this crime, if it isn't just some prank, is the fault of the idiot copycat, but it really convinces me that those who say 'Light's goals were fine' really lack something.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Reminds me of stories happening after "Natural Born Killers". I've never seen that movies though.
