L.O.L, Matsuda.. He's enjoying Light cheated Misa or that romance with Kiyomi-san?
L.O.L at Light said "Why women so..?"

hahahaha I just love Matsuda. PINCH PINCH!!! It seems like he thinks he's watching a drama centering on love triangle between Misa, Takada and Light.

btw. these conversations between Takada and Light must be sketchy as hell if there are such a big pauses between sentences when they're reading and writing, lol. And the fact that he doesn't want cameras without giving a real reason...



On to the next one! ^^ I can't believe that after watching this entire series for 4 or 5 times, I still enjoy it so much. This proves DN is the best anime ever, and 'second season' is even better than the first one

At end - why does so small camera make so great sound?


weirdest thing to think about. i cant remember which shinigami owns the deathnote that mikami has
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

I gotta agree with the 2nd Season being a little boring. When it was Light and L there was a lot more humour and chasing it seems. Near is just too good and makes it seem like Light is barely a challenge to him, which in turn makes it really boring to read/watch, it's just not fun and mysterious as it was.


I'm totally agreeing with you. It feels like they had to made the anime longer than they wanted to.
There is only one L and only one Kira and I am really sad it has gone to this "super detective" Near and stuff..

Can't wait to see Mello & Near screw Light up. Onwards...

At 12:45, on the "Death Note: How to use it" screen, it says:
"The DEATH NOTE will not take effect if you write a specific bictims name using several different pages." It spelled "victims" as "bictims". Anyone else notice?

Light is really an idiot. Giving the note to Mikami was stupid. That idiot lives like he's an machine, Near probably already got his pattern.

Mello....What he did got? He was spying on Misa, not Mikami.

Near is getting high as fuck, he needs to lay off the weed. But I think Light is making more mistakes with all those meetings..

And Mello's back. I do like Mello for one reason, and that is he does the most hands-on work compared to Near and L.

The best ending would be if L came back somehow. And Light would be like, "crap. I thought you were dead."And L would be like, "yeah. I wasn't."

End.

Nah Near is just falling into Light's trap; remember the notebook got replaced by a fake one? Light has several trumps up his sleeve too. And just because the police force knows that Light is communicating through notes doesn't mean anything if they can't find out what he's writing

Near suspects that a shinigami is around and conveniently rules him out by getting misami on film mouthing that the shinigami is not around...cmon

but otherwise a good episode. I thought this episode was a bit more coherent. We're setting up for the finale!

I find the missing notes to be very sloppy for what we're used to from Light. It's probably all part of his masterplan.

If I didn't read the manga when it was released, I would have said this part with Near and Mello was slapped on as "original content."

I still freaking hate the quality drop after L dies. It's one of the biggest let downs in any manga/anime I can remember. (Excluding things like not finishing the story due to budget etc.)

and that's one of the things bothered me in this ep, i mean what is the whole drama around jouvani touching the death note, we know it's fake...
this and the precious just a set up eps for the big ending, so although this ep was kinda boring they are necessary to the great finale.

Near don't treat Aizawa with respect anymore once he didn't have useful information again lol. He just used everybody as a tool just like Gevanni.

And Near should have needed a confirmation that Light indeed exchange note with Takada, otherwise it's only an assumption. This guy just seemed to deduce that his assumption is always 100% correct, and coincidentally it was correct, thanks to the author.

If that's how the author write the story, then my guess is Near gonna win.
He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame.

FFS, they can even read Mikami's lips? That is some serious CSI technology right there.

I liked how Aizawa wondered why Kira would allow Light and Koyomi to have those meetings. It makes him look more aware of the case. I guess it's a mistake by Light.

As I said before, after L's death, It feels like I'm watching a show about Moriarty without Sherlock. Sure, they introduced Mello and Near, but they both seem like cheap copies of L and Light. The show isn't bad now per se. It's just not nearly as good as it was when L was around.

Near is far too OP of a detective honestly. But I'm curious to if that was the fake notebook Mikami was told to make and Near has actually been tricked.

if light loses or dies the anime would have 0 meaning then.

pretty boring episode. nothing really happens. the only "interesting" part was when that guy who works with near was stalking mikami.

Yet another BS logic. How can he read his mouth like that? Bruh at that rate it's likelier that your mind makes you read it like that. If a real agent went off of this to convict someone, you can bet they'd never be offered another detective position again... Such a shame that this anime was such a masterpiece for like the first 25 eps and then Near came along...

The end really is upon me. Light's becoming a bit more sloppy with hiding his presence as Kira, as the notepads that Aizawa planted his nailmarks on were something that rang alarmbells as well as the fact that Aizawa pointed out the question regarding why Kira would approve these two having constant meetings in the first place so easily, makes everything more suspicious towards Light's downfall as he is missing out on details. Not to mention that Near's brain is basically a supercomputer along with the rest of the SPK as they can just detect what Mikami is saying through his lips with 100% ease as well as still mostly nailing the guesses for the most part, having the writing just fall too conveniently to his favor. I love Tsugumi Ohba's writing for what he created in Bakuman but this definitely reeks of sloppiness and plot armor in this particular part.

I feel like the show has devolved and is grasping at straws regarding the things that Near is coming up with. The rationale doesn't seem to be as tight as L's nor explained in enough detail. It's a bit obnoxious yet still intense.

Honestly I'm kinda bored by this now, seriously hoping these last 3 episodes are good.
Like, for one thing Ryuk isn't even showing up anymore which is disappointing cause he was a fun character to have around. Mello has also been pretty irrelevant imo, like after Light's dad died I don't remember seeing much of him. Like what's the point in introducing two of L's successors then kicking one of them in the dirt after he gets like what 5 minutes of screentime? And Near, the way he figures things out is the same as those kids who never put the working out on their maths papers.

I really loved this anime when I first started it and I still do, but at this rate I just want to sit and pretend that the episode where L died was the last one.

Again, not much to comment on. Light's gamble on having Mikami make a fake note seems to have paid off and poor Misa didn't get to sing
