Absolutely—if they ever remake Death Note, the soundtrack would be just as crucial as the visuals and pacing. The original OST gave so much weight to the tension and moral battles, so a modern version would need equally powerful, atmospheric tracks to elevate the story. Imagine sharper animation, tighter pacing, deeper Shinigami lore, and a haunting new score tying it all together—that could make the remake feel both fresh and worthy of the original’s legacy. |

| Bruhhh noooo. Asking for a death note remake?? Its perfect already, dont like how quickly people go "its gotten old man" these days. |
| Fuck NO! Deatch Note is a masterpiece writing-wise and it's animation is visually stunning I'm already torturing myself enough watching Winx and Cat's Eye get completely and utterly destroyed in both departments by their remakes thank you very much If anything adapt the light novels so we get some new content |
| It really doesn't need one. The adaptation has issues, but it's still an incredibly solid work by it's own right. Also, I hate this mentality of "enough time has passed, it needs a remake". So would you say any show that is a few decades old needs to be redone? |
| Only thing a remake can do is to make a carbon copy of the first half of the death note anime and then on the second half fully adapt the manga, unlike the madhouse anime. The only flaw of the madhouse anime is that the second half doesnt get the same care put into it like it did on the first half bcs it cuts and rushes content from the manga. A remake qould be a chance at doing that. Maybe even add some insignificant pannels of the first half not adapted into the anime, but the key point for a remake is to fix the second half. The madhouse anime made the first half really great and the second half still pretry good but it could be even better with more manga content, less rush. It would also be a chance to adapt the manga ending too. The problem is that the madhouse anime has the charming ost and a lot of what was done on it is iconic and very well made, from all the people that worked on it. So what the solution would be? to copy? I would to see what the second half would be like in a remake but it would be a lot of work with not much incentive for the ones making it bcs the death note anime madhouse made still feels great and is great, a masterpiece as you put it. An anime that needs a remake and following the manga is gantz. Gantz has the potential to be a masterpiece in the anime medium with great animation and care out into it |

| I doubt it would be better, so no. |

| Yes, I often say that a remake would be fabulous after the Japanese TV drama Death Note and the Japanese musical Death Note. |
| i doubt they would match the old directing and soundtrack, anyway the show although from 2007 is already widescreen and HD, the only real reason to remake would be just for the ending |
| No, it's not needed. It's not that old either. I can't imagine it getting better with modern approach, if anything, it's more likely to be worse. |

It doesn’t need fixed, if that’s your take on a remake then fmab needs another remake because of how much is skipped over in the beginning.

| @CipherKen just finished the manga not long ago, Kyouko has the best character development throughout the entire series imo |
wndeR said: It would be interesting. But I'm afraid they would mess it up and end up being bad. I would still watch it though. Agreed. I saw the thread title and immediately went "Please no!"... I'm tired of the endless remakes when so many of them are subpar. It's not like it undoes the original but it feels so unnecessary. I think I'd rather see new stories. |
 Another hero? Oh, please! You're a god-damn philistine. |
| I'm not big fan of remakes. I mean anime/manga was good, the first live action movie was good. After all these Jdorama and Netflix versions I would just let Death Note rest in piece and leave untouched for now. |
| Surely that's a joke question? |
 |
| If it means they won’t add the potato chip line then hell no But if they do, please… make Light smarter 🙏 |
We all hate it when you forget about your deadline until last minute     |
| As cool as a remake would be, honestly I don't think that it's needed. The original death note in my opinion is perfect and doesn't need a remake. I fear it would only taint the name of death note as it could become a shit reamke. |
| It would be interesting to see how Death Note would work in, say, 2025, given the advancements in technology, increased conflicts, and heightened surveillance since the timeline Death Note takes place in and was written in which already had those elements used to further the stakes in how Light used the Death Note and how investigators went about trying to find who Kira was. |
