EARLY ACCESS: Death Note 1x2 FULL REACTION
Added 2024-11-25 17:23:04 +0000 UTCHello everyone, and thank you for joining us on this journey. We know the debate between Subbed and Dubbed versions is an important topic in the anime community. For this series, we’ve decided to try watching the Dubbed version to see how it resonates. This decision is specific to this series only. For future anime, as we did with Attack on Titan, we’ll consider both options carefully before making a choice. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope you enjoy our reactions. Thank you for being part of this experience with us!

Believe are not. This anime is also a MUSICAL. As a theater kids it’s ironically one of my favs and I seen the musical before the anime. The Death Note universe is so wide you’d be shocked.

2024-12-18 05:52:38 +0000 UTCdon't know if you guys have noticed, but Death Note was directed by the same director as Attack on Titan! in fact, this was his directorial debut.

2024-12-05 16:28:38 +0000 UTCYeah the show came out weekly on Adult Swim. Unfortunately there were no discussions afterword with groups, at least where i am from. My brother and I watched when we were in middle school. There were so many awesome anime they showed then. I'm so excited for this season!

2024-11-27 22:09:28 +0000 UTCI read somewhere that '4' has the same pronunciation with 'death' in Japanese language?

2024-11-27 22:08:38 +0000 UTCPlease watch DemonSlayer!!!

2024-11-27 21:37:04 +0000 UTCSeeing a lot of 4's and 0's pop up, first off 40 seconds to write down how they die then 6 minutes and 40 or 400 seconds for the description of their death. Probably making something out of nothing but I just had to share this. Even if it's nothing at all.
I'm Batman
2024-11-27 20:50:12 +0000 UTCSo upon hearing the description of L (currently watching the episode, haven't finished it yet) I instantly said "I'm Batman" lol

2024-11-27 20:38:55 +0000 UTCL's voice actor is the reason i love watching death note in dub so much XD

2024-11-27 12:51:31 +0000 UTCVery very excited that you guys are reacting to this one! Death Note was the first manga I ever read (I know, way too inappropriate for a child!) and one of my favourites. The anime does such a fantastic job of capturing everything key to the actual story and covers every theme in the original manga. Personal preference, but I love Death Note over AOT but looking forward to see how you guys feel about this one as we move forward!

2024-11-27 11:12:42 +0000 UTCHell is real, demons are real, the devil is real, God loves you, and does not want you to end up in hell. Give Jesus a chance, he payed for your sins on the cross, so you don't have to. Your soul and salvation is worth infinitely more than you can ever imagine. Do not carelessly, ignorantly or foolishly throw it away. Turn to Jesus and he will save you and those who you know, from the fires and torments of hell Look into God's true word (The Holy Bible) as it is a love letter from God to you, so you can be saved (it will be the most important thing you ever read/look into) For those who do not believe or unfortunately believe in false religions and doctrines, the evidence/proof you seek, is only a click or search away
God loves you ✝️🩷

Francis Demonteverde
2024-11-27 03:18:32 +0000 UTCi think the only animes most people would suggest watching in dub is this (aka death note), the disastrous life of Saiki K and Uramichi onii-san (or in english life lessons with uramichi onii-san depending on where u watch it ig)
Cherry
2024-11-27 02:28:54 +0000 UTCDub is definition the way to go with this one. Death Note is BY FAR my favorite anime. I have a DN tattoo and everything. Super stoked for this!
Becca Keeney
2024-11-26 22:47:31 +0000 UTCI feel like this episode was the one that got me officially on L’s side. I thought Light went to far on the first episode but in the first episode you can kinda understand where he is coming from. He’s kinda like a vigilante, killing only criminals. But in this episode he just straight up kills someone who he thought didn’t commit any crimes and didn’t care. And you see in this episode he kills ppl who has done small crimes as well and maybe shouldn’t deserve to die. And he even killed that fake L, even though he didn’t know he was fake L was a criminal, he straight up killed him just bc he got in his way. He just kills criminals to become “god” it seems like and is completely willing to kill any innocent person who crosses him. Which defeats the whole purpose of his monologue in the first episode about only killing criminals and creating a “new world”. In this episode it shows how he doesnt care who he kills, he just wants power and because he thinks he’s “God” he thinks he is fit to decide who should die and who shouldn’t.

2024-11-26 20:23:15 +0000 UTCI think it’s great you guys chose Dub for this anime. But not all Animes have this great of Dub voice acting. So if you guys watch another Anime after this I hope you guys listen to both or listen to what most of the audience says. For me, Death Note has great voice acting for both Sub and Dub so I don’t really care which one someone watches and I understand that it’s easier to watch in Dub but keep in mind that not all Anime’s have great Dub voice acting or voice actors that fit the character. So even if it’s a little harder to get all the information, sometimes it’s better to watch the sub for the voice acting maybe for future anime’s. I’m only saying this bc sadly not all anime’s have great or iconic dub voice acting like they had in Death note. Basically, Death voice dub acting is great and fit perfectly for the characters but its sadly not like that for all anime’s. So the next anime you watch I recommend to see what most of the audience recommends on and ask the audience if the Dub is great or not. I just don’t want you guys to get your hopes up and think all anime dubs have this great voice acting. So yes, it’s easier to understand but sometimes it just not as impactful as the original.

2024-11-26 19:46:38 +0000 UTCI feel this gives u a well rounded approach to what anime can be
Gu
2024-11-26 17:17:47 +0000 UTCSo happy you guys chose dub! Hope you all like it! It's always nice to get a look and listen to both sub and dub in anime. Death Note is a great respresentative for dub in anime
Goofy scoundrel
2024-11-26 16:42:07 +0000 UTCSo happy you guys are loving this show! I personally did undersell this show in the comments because I have seen you guys react only to stuff with heavy action. And this show has none of that. But yes it is a masterpiece!
Shubham
2024-11-26 13:24:38 +0000 UTCDeath Note is an all-time classic for me, so I'm happy you're hooked and ready for the ride ^^ There's still often this prejudice of anime being just cartoons for children, so it's a satisfaction to see your reactions to AOT and now this ♡
Sammy
2024-11-26 11:32:47 +0000 UTCOak- I see you! I felt the same the first time I watched this show!
K
2024-11-26 06:16:36 +0000 UTCMaybe somebody already mentioned this. This show and the first three seasons of Attack on Titan are directed by the same person: Tetsuro Araki. I believe this is why both shows have the information cards at the halfway marks of the episodes; he seems to have carried this style over. At the very least, I haven't seen any other anime that feature this. Just some fun trivia
SRigby
2024-11-26 05:51:22 +0000 UTCYeah thanks for the details, the point is the first 25 episodes of the anime (and whichever chapter in the manga it corresponds to) was the entire thing originally and was supposed to end there
PO
2024-11-26 05:39:08 +0000 UTCif you said the editor of the publishing company forced the writer to add more chapters into the manga story, then I agree
Fajar Kurniawan
2024-11-26 05:33:41 +0000 UTCmaybe you made another typo, this 37 episodes are based on 108 manga chapters that already finished and concluded. so the source material is already exist. the studio just made this anime true to it's source material. the creator didn't has to write additional episodes because it's already written in the manga.
Fajar Kurniawan
2024-11-26 05:32:37 +0000 UTCI love that you guys watched this after AOT because it shows the range of storytelling that is possible in Anime. Two amazing stories that couldn’t be more unique! So excited to rewatch this with you guys! ❤️📖
Chai Tea
2024-11-26 05:18:39 +0000 UTCThe Oak's reviews are always on point no matter the show you guys are reacting to, also it's good to see him that excited about the show
Claudia Escarcega
2024-11-26 05:06:01 +0000 UTCLooking forward to Monday’s
Micah
2024-11-26 04:59:04 +0000 UTCI hope you guys react to more episodes or add another anime show to your weekly drops! There's so many AMAZING animes you guys MUST react to! (Frieren, Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, Code Geass, Vinland Saga)
Sanji
2024-11-26 04:54:01 +0000 UTCI NEED them to have 2 animes going at once :pray:
Sanji
2024-11-26 04:47:07 +0000 UTCLoving how much oak is loving death note. He was on the edge of his seat with that L twist reveal HAHAHA
Sanji
2024-11-26 04:40:05 +0000 UTCreally missing Diamond Dave in this reactions :(
Sanji
2024-11-26 03:59:24 +0000 UTCI totally made a typo, it was supposed to be first 25 episodes not 15 sorry. After that theres is a decrease in quality. Still good though no doubt I'm not saying it was bad, but the episodes went from high 8's to mid 7's in the last 12.
PO
2024-11-26 03:42:59 +0000 UTCits definitely still good after 15 though lol
peachy af
2024-11-26 03:38:34 +0000 UTCOak is SO into this i am absolutely living for it
peachy af
2024-11-26 03:37:35 +0000 UTCYeah i thought about that too but then they'll just get to the next anime quicker 😊 eh?
Kalie Murray
2024-11-26 02:52:09 +0000 UTCthere isn't to many episodes
Crispin
2024-11-26 02:49:26 +0000 UTCthe live adaption is up there with Oong the last air bender XD
Crispin
2024-11-26 02:48:38 +0000 UTCI'm happy that you are enjoying Death Note. To Oak about the live actions, there is an American adaptation by Netflix and it's TERRIBLE. seriously, do NOT watch it. - I have not watched the Japanese adaptations, so I can't comment. Looking forward to watching the rest of the anime with you guys.
Nere Rodriguez
2024-11-26 02:27:15 +0000 UTCI feel like these are so short that it should be like the last airbender format with 4 episodes. But I am also just very impatient lol
Kalie Murray
2024-11-26 02:11:01 +0000 UTCThey won't get to witness the most iconic and expressive scenes in anime in climax scenes 😞

2024-11-26 01:45:16 +0000 UTC“It’s like fetch” 😂😂😂

2024-11-26 01:38:07 +0000 UTC(fine feathered friends and foes) 😂😂😂
Steven Warner
2024-11-26 01:37:37 +0000 UTCWatching in dub with you guys after watching in sub my first watch. The only thing bothering me is you guys wont get to witness ryuks original voice, i feel like it adds so much expression and humour to his character. I hope you watch a little in sub during your own time to compare at least :)

2024-11-26 00:56:35 +0000 UTCLove these beefy midwestern men <3
PokeTheBear
2024-11-26 00:43:38 +0000 UTCYou are right, Light wrote Lind L Tailor's name so huge it 'crossed the lines' of the notebook
Fajar Kurniawan
2024-11-26 00:34:57 +0000 UTCThe original length of the show was 25 episodes. The creator meant it to end it there. Then they basically 'forced' him to write 12 more episodes which was such a shame. It was a cash grab. You will notice the decrease in quality yourself. Definitely what brought it's ratings down and stopped it from being the all time best.
PO
2024-11-25 23:46:07 +0000 UTCDO NOT compare anything you watch to Attack on Titan, nothing will compare to it. Deathnote is great on its own way, and it paved the way for modern anime. It's the OG
PO
2024-11-25 23:17:16 +0000 UTCAnd people said they wouldn't like this like y'all base things off how yiu guys view them which is idiotic
RunAwayCloak
2024-11-25 23:14:08 +0000 UTCThe 2006 Japanese version is actually a good adaptation, they nailed all of the characters cast and style to look exactly like the manga.
Fajar Kurniawan
2024-11-25 23:02:15 +0000 UTCThey did make several live actions of this. The American (Netflix) version was absolutely horrible. Do not bother. The Japanese movies (The first two came out around 2006, a 3rd came out in 2016 but haven't seen it) were well done. At least I thought so back when I watched them a decade or so ago. They are actually what got me to watch the anime (I'm not big on anime in general). Japan did a live action tv show that I don't remember doing well. My biggest critique, and I think others echoed as well, is that they changed a huge character trait associated with L. I think I only made it 5ish episode in before I tapped out.
Megan
2024-11-25 22:22:43 +0000 UTCIf, and I do mean IF they watch the live action, stick to the Japanese live action movies. Those were good, the American version was absolute trash. I also think the live action Japanese show didn't go over very well. I can't 100% remember, but I think it was just okay and I only made it a few episodes in. I think my biggest issue was that they changed L for the show. The live action movies were actually my introduction to DN and is what made me decide to watch the anime.
Megan
2024-11-25 22:13:40 +0000 UTCthis show teaches a lesson for other series with the pacing XD

Córdova
2024-11-25 20:34:10 +0000 UTCabsolutely love seeing you guys get into this, oak’s reaction to the L reveal was everything!
wren
2024-11-25 20:28:22 +0000 UTCYes the japanese ones are good!! Skip the american one lol
Sofia W
2024-11-25 20:03:10 +0000 UTCIn the internet says netflix is working on a live action tv show adaptation I think they realized there mistakes after one piece and avatar success and now focus on good adaptations will see when the final product is out
Vasileios Mitsos
2024-11-25 19:38:06 +0000 UTCYou guys are going to LOVE this show. A LOT happens in 24 episodes so even if it doesn't seem like it can go that long... it does. 😉
J Knight
2024-11-25 19:34:37 +0000 UTCThey should watch the Japanese live action movies because they dont SUCK LOL
J Knight
2024-11-25 19:11:49 +0000 UTCYeah. Maybe as a standalone movie it could be okay, but having seen the show, this movie was VERY bad. Lets hope a well done Live action gets made someday. They already realized Japan is the way to go. I also heard they plan a Pokemon Live Action to replace Stranger Things as their most popular show after its done.
Nachtarox x
2024-11-25 19:07:32 +0000 UTCWhen oak said “this should be live action” I screamed “NO IT SHOULDNT” they will have to watch the Netflix movie adaptation after they finish the death note anime
Clorox bleach G
2024-11-25 19:07:19 +0000 UTCThere is a Netflix live action Death Note movie, but it's TERRIBLE. There are a few live action movies from Japan too. BUT the Duffer Brothers (known for Stranger Things) are doing a live action series in the future. So we shall see how that goes.
Tina
2024-11-25 19:04:33 +0000 UTCboi ohh boi this is gonna be awesome!!!! :D its just that two episodes is not enough.. :D should have been 3 or 4... oh well...
Norberto Ramirez
2024-11-25 18:45:00 +0000 UTCactually there is a live action netflix movie adaptation but is very bad from what i heard and i think netflix will make an other live action adaptation and i hope its good but from i can see they have taken there lessons and will do us they did with one piece adaptation and try to get best possible outcome
Vasileios Mitsos
2024-11-25 18:40:11 +0000 UTCI like the dub!

2024-11-25 18:39:52 +0000 UTCthe dub is great for this show
