EARLY ACCESS: Death Note 1x1 FULL REACTION
Added 2024-11-25 17:22:55 +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!

The Oak's episode 1 breakdown of his thoughts was so well articulated, eloquent, impartial and measured. That man has a soul of gold. As someone that has studied Japanese for over 20 years, also appreciate the shoutout for the Japanese language - it truly is beautiful with great nuance. Also completely get for those not fluent, especially with complex series with multiple threads like Death Note or Attack on Titan (or even Trigun for that matter) listening in their native language/dub to follow along. It is going to be amazing watching Oak go through this series.

2025-10-20 00:55:33 +0000 UTCnooo you're supposed to see the Movie version first. not the anime version.

2024-11-29 02:33:41 +0000 UTCI totally respect the decision to watch this dubbed, Oak makes a very good point! Honestly, the whole sub vs dub is so unnecessary to me, I say just watch what you want. How can you make the experience more enjoyable for yourself? I'm about half and half - anime with a lot of action, like Demon Slayer, I like to watch subbed because of the emotional inflections of Japanese, but when it comes to slice of life/comedy, I like the dub because the humor translates to cater to the native English speaker - Ouran High School Host Club and The Disastrous Life of Saiki K are great examples of this. Or I just watch both like I did with Your Name :)

2024-11-29 01:41:42 +0000 UTCDeath Note is just one season of mindfuck. It's absolutely brilliant.
Bomelo
2024-11-28 02:10:31 +0000 UTCAs a sub only enjoyer mostly, I'm all for y'all watching this in dub, they do a great job. Looking forward to rewatching this one with the gents. (Dubs just lead to naturally confusing scenes, Like light speaking English and 'translating' English)

2024-11-27 23:11:12 +0000 UTCNah keep the yawning up Mr Proud boy.
Ana
2024-11-27 21:08:47 +0000 UTCAwww you're copying my responses. You truly are inspired by bigots mr proud boy 🫡

2024-11-27 21:06:47 +0000 UTC@Ana 🥱 Thanks for taking the time to reply, I thought you didnt care 🤡

2024-11-27 21:02:49 +0000 UTC@JOJO facts
Ana
2024-11-27 21:01:51 +0000 UTCSuch a proud boy huh?
Ana
2024-11-27 20:59:38 +0000 UTCyea jjk is pretty mid and held up by animation quality alone lol there are waaay better ones to watch before we even get close to the new stuff
JOJO
2024-11-27 20:58:58 +0000 UTC@Rex Tan And I'm the bigot? You sound like a true proud boy under here 🤔 it all makes sense now.
Ana
2024-11-27 20:58:25 +0000 UTCDid I say my opinion is correct or that I didn't want to hear yalls? Now you're trying to call me a bigot? Oh please 🙄 over comments on the internet. I've experienced real bigotry in real life from people that probably looked like you. This is why I don't care for y'all opinions because you're annoying.
Ana
2024-11-27 20:53:39 +0000 UTCRex Tan stfu. Where am I bigot? Lmaooo y'all just be saying anything. That's why I respond the way I do
Ana
2024-11-27 20:48:06 +0000 UTC@Bambina, dont bother with her, saw some of her comments, mostly toxic and narrowminded bigot.
Rex Tan
2024-11-27 20:35:25 +0000 UTCWhile I generally agree that JJK is a bad anime with good visuals, if you dont care about other people's opinion and narrowmindedly think your opinion is always correct we have a word for that, its called being a bigot. Have a nice day. :)
Rex Tan
2024-11-27 20:33:38 +0000 UTCMakes me wonder, so Light is only targeting criminals, but I wonder if there will be any names on the list that was falsely convicted and if that ever gets brought up. It's easy to judge just based on criminal records without knowing what truly might've happened.
I'm Batman
2024-11-27 20:29:03 +0000 UTCSo going by your logic I also share my thoughts hence I don’t need you to “ask me” anything, I can share my thoughts freely. It may be under your comment or elsewhere here, the fact that it’s your comment doesn’t make it exclusive place for people who only agree with you or that need your permission to speak. You began that rhetoric, so I’m answering accordingly. I don’t care for the lack of manners in your answer. Don’t cry because people don’t share your opinion and express it.
Bambina
2024-11-27 17:35:54 +0000 UTCNo one asked me yet this is a comment section ? Literally says share your thoughts...🤔 So yes I was asked since you needed that clarification. And I made MY own comment sharing MY own thoughts. YOU chose to reply to Me on MY comment when I did not ask or care for other's opinions. You could of made your own comment talking about JJk. Don't cry because you don't like how I reply back. Shouldn't have replied to me 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ That simple
Ana
2024-11-27 17:31:47 +0000 UTCLight the goat
Erick G
2024-11-27 17:01:37 +0000 UTC@ana Girl if you want to be rude, I can be rude. No one asked you as well but here you are talking. I don’t need you to ask me for me to answer
Bambina
2024-11-27 12:45:27 +0000 UTC🥱
Ana
2024-11-27 11:00:22 +0000 UTCyou dont know what these guys are gonna like?? jjk is an incredible anime you dont have to rag on it just bc you dont like it this is embarrassing as fuck for you
Lotta Eskelinen
2024-11-27 10:57:28 +0000 UTC🥱
Ana
2024-11-27 02:47:51 +0000 UTCgirl....u can have ur opinion but don't be so uptight about it, we all like different things and thats fine. i for one love jujutsu kaisen and genuinely think that they would enjoy it too. it's really not that serious.
Cherry
2024-11-27 02:32:11 +0000 UTCGood for you! I want something better for them lol
Alexander Alayon Jr
2024-11-27 00:24:05 +0000 UTCYooo, someone else that knows about Deadman Wonderland. Nice! It's criminally unknown.
Marco Gutierrez
2024-11-26 22:29:39 +0000 UTCAll these people requesting JJk don't listen it's another dark anime. Hopefully you guys watch a different genre of anime next time. If you watch JJK I already know the reactions. Oak is not gonna like that show at all. Y'all gonna be sitting there like this 😐 there is not even a storyline. All it has is a few good fight scenes If you disagree with my comment don't reply to me because idc. You'll just be wasting your energy typing
Ana
2024-11-26 21:33:51 +0000 UTCBambina where did I ask?
Ana
2024-11-26 21:29:00 +0000 UTCCan't wait to see ya'll enjoy this one too. I'm sad that we don't get Diamond Dave for this one though. Did it just not seem like his cup of tea? I'm looking forward to seeing more anime from you guys. Personally I think ya'll would love Fullmetal Alchemist and Code Geas.
Marco Gutierrez
2024-11-26 21:28:13 +0000 UTCEhhh, those aren't anime though. They can be inspired by anime, but anime is literally just Japanese cartoons. If it doesn't come from Japan, then it isn't anime.
Marco Gutierrez
2024-11-26 21:26:33 +0000 UTCchainsaw man will be gear after this one
Ibraheem
2024-11-26 21:24:33 +0000 UTCThe intended audio product is the one that was produced and provided by the people the creator put in charge. If the creator didn't intend to provide audio in English, then they wouldn't have allowed an English dub to be made. Hey, thanks for proving my point about sub elitism though. I will always prefer dub to subs, but at no point am I self centered enough to act like people are wrong for not enjoying something the way I do.
Marco Gutierrez
2024-11-26 21:23:59 +0000 UTCDiamond Dave would be all over this show.. aw man.
Scott Bringel
2024-11-26 20:03:11 +0000 UTCI cant wait for you guys to get into this more and more! For the next one, even though it is a long way to go, I highly recommend JJK and especially My Hero, which I think you guys would love.
Abigail.M
2024-11-26 18:32:56 +0000 UTCLiterally same! AOT was my first 10yrs ago and then Death Note…hey twin!
Layla
2024-11-26 16:55:36 +0000 UTCNext anime either MHA, Cyberpunk Edgerunners or Vinland Saga. These 3 would be a great pick for you guys in terms of your interests in film and tv 👍🏻
DustinEatWorld
2024-11-26 16:51:23 +0000 UTCMaybe he watched some trailers etc and didn’t like it?
DustinEatWorld
2024-11-26 16:48:33 +0000 UTCI don’t recommend JJK TO THEM. I would recommend Gintama and HxH as well for example but they wouldn’t like it. So I recommend them Vinland Saga and MHA because they like these kinds of things in western Film/TV
DustinEatWorld
2024-11-26 16:47:51 +0000 UTCThey literally said they can follow and understand the story better with dub. There’s your single reason.
Scott Bringel
2024-11-26 16:33:02 +0000 UTCMany of us do! That’s why it was in second place. I don’t watch MHA personally 😊
Bambina
2024-11-26 14:50:17 +0000 UTCJJK and Edgrunners next! I don't recommend Vinland
Gu
2024-11-26 13:56:00 +0000 UTCOh really, how come? I would have thought the copyright was enforced more strictly for movies.
Aria Isara
2024-11-26 13:49:40 +0000 UTCNo more uncut? 🤔
Aria Isara
2024-11-26 13:46:55 +0000 UTCUncut for anime, even if temporary, might be skating on thin ice. I would avoid it if I were them. Their whole account might get nuked. ☹️
Money-Kate Olsen
2024-11-26 13:33:30 +0000 UTCYea so far I don't mind the dub as much as I thought I would, then again my expectations are undefined since 95% of the anime I watched until now were sub. Previous Dubs I watched were on 4KidsTV and Toonami many years ago...
romaiiiii
2024-11-26 10:38:59 +0000 UTCWow, Dafoe as Ryuk was such a good pick too bad it flopped (looking at audience scores).
romaiiiii
2024-11-26 10:36:35 +0000 UTCAs long as the translation is good then I will enjoy it.
romaiiiii
2024-11-26 10:35:33 +0000 UTCI think a good anime after death note would either be Vinland Saga or JJK. I'll be here for anything though and i'm sure you'll eventually get to other anime as you guys react to more. I'm looking forward to the rest of your Death Note journey!
[ GMAN ]
2024-11-26 07:26:56 +0000 UTCI hope JJk doesn't because I don't watch it
Ana
2024-11-26 06:59:26 +0000 UTCjust watch in japenese n follow along lol no need to whine
Nicholas Scala
2024-11-26 06:57:20 +0000 UTCI hope next anime is JJK as it came in second place on the previous poll
Bambina
2024-11-26 06:57:17 +0000 UTCBuh bye
Ana
2024-11-26 06:47:52 +0000 UTCYeah for MHA it doesn't matter which way you go. I definitely support dub for 3 iconic characters. They will love it
Ana
2024-11-26 06:47:06 +0000 UTCwhy isn't Diamond Dave here?
[ GMAN ]
2024-11-26 06:07:05 +0000 UTCI want MHA though
Ana
2024-11-26 05:57:50 +0000 UTCNot watching along if that's dub. I'm sorry Japanese VA is goated and I can't think of one single reason to not listen to the intended audio product.
Zdmn
2024-11-26 05:29:33 +0000 UTCI agree with lighter anime, but there are many better animes than my hero and thats coming from a mha fan myself!
Alexander Alayon Jr
2024-11-26 05:12:33 +0000 UTCThe Death Note dub is fine, I hope you guys watch My Hero Academia at some point! Both the sub and dub for My Hero are Excellent!!
Chai Tea
2024-11-26 04:53:07 +0000 UTCDiamond Dave you gotta jump on this series!! Please? 🥺
Chai Tea
2024-11-26 04:17:48 +0000 UTCOh fkng YEAH
Yerena Fernanda
2024-11-26 03:15:57 +0000 UTCThe other big character that's coming up is incredibly hard to listen to. They changed his personality in the dub which is kind of sad. It's very corny but at least they don't make any big translation mistakes.
Nate
2024-11-26 01:41:00 +0000 UTCI agree. I can understand more watching a modern anime is dub, but DN is a classic, and made during an era where english voice acting is still goofy. One of the main characters thats coming up is so hard to listen to.
Nate
2024-11-26 01:33:13 +0000 UTCSO HERE FOR IT!!!!!!
Bruna Pereira
2024-11-26 01:31:22 +0000 UTCI vote to stick w Dub
Steven Warner
2024-11-26 01:28:09 +0000 UTCTrue, but there's a reason why they complain.
Nate
2024-11-26 01:22:19 +0000 UTCNo Diamond Dave??? Maaaaaaaaan only group reaction channel where I'm interested in what everyone has to say.

2024-11-26 01:17:18 +0000 UTCNo DD? 😭

Flubbedsquid
2024-11-26 00:45:52 +0000 UTCWhat I love about Death Note is that it gets you thinking (even more later on)about what are the limits we have as humans and how perspective is so important! Watched it for the first time when I was like 12 yo, it definitely stayed with me lol
Daniela Robles
2024-11-26 00:43:44 +0000 UTCI'm a huge fan of the MHA dub but I like what I've heard from the sub as well. I really don't think the guys can go wrong either way even if I do think the dub rules! I'm also hoping that's the next anime.
DahGecko
2024-11-26 00:43:34 +0000 UTCSo funny you mentioned that. Guess who plays Ryuk in the horrible Death Note Netflix adaptation?
DahGecko
2024-11-26 00:38:57 +0000 UTCAmen!
Kel
2024-11-25 23:50:29 +0000 UTCI’ve tried watching this show twice before and never made it to the second episode. I couldn’t decide how I felt about it. Now that I have you guys here to take the journey with me, I’m ready to get into it. We’re on this ride together for better or worse, my dudes! Curious to see where this show will take us.
Kel
2024-11-25 23:49:50 +0000 UTCI do think that this is one of the animes that has a really good dub version. Its not the end of the world if its either or, whats important is that its easy to catch the details and understand the story line. I think watching it in dub is a great decision, and it definitely makes it easier to understand.
Elle
2024-11-25 23:42:47 +0000 UTCThe sub vs. Dub debate is honestly just rooted in people’s preference, how much they like the sound of the VA voice, and how convenient /enjoyable it is for them to watch. Just do as you please since you're the one watching! Although Demon Slayer was my pick, I'm excited to watch a new series with you all! The first episode was crazyy
Dy'Nasha
2024-11-25 23:40:10 +0000 UTCI'm really glad you're doing the dub. It's incredible, and you're totally right that it's easier to understand for a first watch. Ignore anyone complaining and enjoy this amazing show <3

Caleb
2024-11-25 23:16:42 +0000 UTCI have nothing against dubbed anime when it comes to specific shows. Some animes should be watched dubbed, like Cyberpunk: Edgerunners for example, and others, like Vinland Saga, Attack on Titan etc should be watched subbed :) Have a nice week pals!
hex1c
2024-11-25 23:12:25 +0000 UTCTried dub for the first time on this one... verdict is... it's okay. What really breaks immersion for me is the shoddy voice acting by background characters... wow does that snap me out of the moment. Overall main voice actors in the dub are pretty good, Ryuk kinda sounds like Willem Dafoe no?
romaiiiii
2024-11-25 23:12:11 +0000 UTCDub is pretty good for death note imo! Really looking forward to the next anime…I’m really hoping it’ll be My Hero Academia! For that both sub and dub are amazing imo (tho I prefer sub a tad bit more)
todomeowmo
2024-11-25 22:58:25 +0000 UTCThey have tho, this is only their 2nd serious/dark anime, they have watched avatar the last air bender, legend of Korra, what if, even arcane has some hilarious moments, also you can’t blame them, if you wanna blame someone blame the people who voted for this
dank
2024-11-25 22:31:29 +0000 UTCHonestly do what’s best for you as far as sub and dub People like what they like and unfortunately anime people complain ALOT
Obinna
2024-11-25 22:29:59 +0000 UTCNext anime poll please put My hero academia as an option. I love death note but I can't keep doing all these dark animes back to back
Ana
2024-11-25 22:12:01 +0000 UTCOMG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

ZJ Johnson
2024-11-25 21:51:37 +0000 UTCWe need Vinland saga next 😏 death note is a perfect starter to get someone into anime can't wait for you guys to experience peak
Yarod Razo
2024-11-25 21:38:11 +0000 UTCSuch a great show and I love the soundtrack. Especially the character themes! Ryuk is my absolute favorite! You guys are in for a wild ride and one of the best things about this anime, is that it gets right into it! This is one of the only animes I'm aware of that people widely accept the dubbed version of and will even reccomend it. Enjoy!
Megan
2024-11-25 21:33:52 +0000 UTCSince death note isnt that long, JJK next right guys 👀
zimy__
2024-11-25 21:30:01 +0000 UTCDub is completely fine! In general a lot of newer animes have great dubs too. As long as it's not known for being a horrible dub - just do what's best for your entertainment please!
Frederick
2024-11-25 21:28:36 +0000 UTCAmen. I'm able to understand a bit of Japanese and I can already tell the subtle differences when they translate it to english. I'd love for them to watch in sub, and I guess dub is passable for a few anime, like Death Note, but man Light's Japanese VA is on a whole different level than this one.
Rex Tan
2024-11-25 21:25:03 +0000 UTCNobody cares they're watching dub. Get over it
Ana
2024-11-25 21:07:31 +0000 UTCAre you doing the uncut version for this as well? I know you say it’s temporary.
Donte McLemore
2024-11-25 21:06:58 +0000 UTCGet over it
Ana
2024-11-25 21:06:45 +0000 UTCryuk is probably my fav character ever.
Crispin
2024-11-25 20:59:58 +0000 UTCYou can still watch sub, I'm playing my own version with the sub (don't have ENG dub available in my country) and it's worked just fine.
Julian Flowers
2024-11-25 20:43:07 +0000 UTCAnd that's where we differ I guess. Sure I understand giving drug addicts a chance to rehabilitate, but when they start threatening the lives of ordinary hard working citizens, thats the red line for me. If I'm a cop, I wont hesitate shooting someone who's pointing a gun at a civilian. I won't wait for civilians to become casualties and ask their forgiveness when they're 6ft under.
Rex Tan
2024-11-25 20:27:00 +0000 UTCYeah they really jumped into another really intense protagonist for their second anime lol
starstrucker
2024-11-25 20:17:57 +0000 UTCbest dub
Crispin
2024-11-25 20:16:36 +0000 UTCThis is definitely one of the better dubs! I'm a subbed person for sure but I'm glad yall are choosing to do dubbed for death note if it helps you concentrate! This was one of my favorite Mangas to read when I was younger and I haven't seen the show all the way through so I will be following along with you guys getting a nice refresh! Time to get into the morality of the death note and sit back and watch the chaos hahah
starstrucker
2024-11-25 20:15:40 +0000 UTCmother oh god.... its here.....
Crispin
2024-11-25 20:08:03 +0000 UTCThis happened for example in the first Pokemon Movie. There it literally changed the meaning of the movie. Do you have an example where this happened in Death Note? Im not hating btw, im curious. Try to mark it as a spoiler if you write it
Nachtarox x
2024-11-25 20:08:01 +0000 UTCOMG SO EXCITED FOR THIS
Megan Sluzhevsky
2024-11-25 20:07:50 +0000 UTChow does this effect anything haha, its the same show. You can have it with subs while they do dub, it should still be the same lenght in terms of syncing it up.

2024-11-25 20:03:57 +0000 UTCDave is my GOAT 💪🔥

2024-11-25 19:55:20 +0000 UTCI really missed Dave in these reactions. I hope he’ll be able to be in future Death Note drops 🙏

2024-11-25 19:54:58 +0000 UTCThis is the one anime I’m fine with having dub!

2024-11-25 19:41:45 +0000 UTCAs I once saw someone say, Light Yagami saw a downwards spiral and decided to grab a sled. Welcome to Death Note! Y'all are in for a wild ride.
Julian Flowers
2024-11-25 19:36:06 +0000 UTCYes but because they mentioned 2 seasons I thought maby netflix broke the arcs to seasons any way I was talking about the second arc that is not us good us the first one it has it good moments but could had been better

2024-11-25 19:35:43 +0000 UTClove the dub

Katie O’Pella
2024-11-25 19:24:02 +0000 UTCI agree with you oak. It’s dope to understand it in your language and I think it will make you love this a lot. It doesn’t mean you can’t go back and watch it in Japanese dub. Both are dope. I still prefer the dub as an og watcher.
Miguel Hernandez
2024-11-25 19:23:41 +0000 UTCWhich language you watch in has no effect on my enjoyment of watching your reaction, so it's all good with me.

2024-11-25 19:14:24 +0000 UTCWho sold a gun to a scum who didn’t deserve to live in your opinion? What got him addicted to substances that would make him do something so scary? I am not trying to undermine your experience but I truly believe that there were two very scared people in that dark alley. We are all responsible for the choices we make but really I can’t say that I find asking for that kind of retribution understandable. To end a life: when you have medical professionals who refuse to do it in the first place. Sorry but my opinion can’t change based on personal fears, feelings or experiences. And I have an experience like yours so I know how deeply it goes when you fear for your life, it can change you and it stays. Sorry that happened to you.

2024-11-25 19:10:39 +0000 UTCDubbed anime is the steak eaters equivalent of ordering and eating a well done steak--yes, you're still eating a steak, but you're not getting the same experience. Things just get lost in translation, and some dialogue choices and delivery are downright awful to the point that they change the entire meaning behind a scene. And the voices they choose for some of the characters literally changes their entire personality and the viewers perception of the character as a result.

2024-11-25 19:05:14 +0000 UTCAlso presenting the other side of the coin, I very much support capital punishment for criminals. and I understand your hesitation when it comes to the legal system. But I dare say only few can claim to be a victim of a crime where your life is in danger. I experienced being held at gunpoint at some dark alley around midnight (I know, my fault). As he pointed the gun at me and asked for my wallet I looked at him and I felt like he was high on some drug, but nonetheless I knew that my life could be over on a whim. Heck if I was a chick I couldve even gotten raped who knows. These scum don't deserve to live.

2024-11-25 18:54:08 +0000 UTCI have no complaints for the Dub in this one, there's a few scenes that you can watch a comparison on after the end, but I'm with you all the way with this. The show is one of the first anime I ever watched and it just opened a world to me, it's always gonna have a special place in my hall of fame.

2024-11-25 18:46:27 +0000 UTCi showed my dad this show a couple years ago, it was the first anime he’d ever seen, and he told me afterward that it was one of the best shows he’d ever seen period! so excited to see you guys get into it. also, i will personally always prefer subbed not dubbed, but death note is one of the only animes that has a dub that i can tolerate. you guys do what you need to do!

2024-11-25 18:45:26 +0000 UTCDeath note only has 1 season with 37 episodes

2024-11-25 18:41:40 +0000 UTCI'm gonna miss Diamond Dave for this one though 😭
J Knight
2024-11-25 18:39:02 +0000 UTCThis was the second anime I ever watched. First was Attack on Titan about 10 years ago. Death Note is a great follow up! Still my favorite of all time!
J Knight
2024-11-25 18:38:14 +0000 UTCah okay, thats understandable. Maybe you'll get to watch it someday :)

2024-11-25 18:26:40 +0000 UTCJokes aside I appreciate Oak bringing in the real talk here. I think Death Note never made it at the top of my lists regarding anime because I grew up and live in a country where it has been decided against the death penalty in the constitution and I am extremely glad about it. Mostly because you need to hold your judicial system to such a high standard but it has been regularly proven it is almost impossible to do. We are not - as humans - capable of fair judgment in most cases, too many mental habits and biases work against that perfect system. To hold lives as most valuable and important is the only real moral imperative I can think of. But. Unfortunately. Yours is the kind of commentary that I really enjoy listening to so thank you.
Eric
2024-11-25 18:25:58 +0000 UTCAlso, additional context for you guys, Japan does have the death penalty

2024-11-25 18:22:49 +0000 UTCNot to speak for them but I think maybe he is busy as he wasn't playing the Wolf Among Us with them either but I hope he is able to watch the episodes he missed behind the scenes and join at some point! Love having all 4 of them together when it is possible :D Thanks for the reaction guys!!
Katie Madsen
2024-11-25 18:16:52 +0000 UTCAlso, I promise not all anime’s are this dark and depressing lol. I would’ve watched something light / fun like One Punch after enduring AOT, but Death Note is so good it’s okay haha
Layla
2024-11-25 18:16:05 +0000 UTCI’m excited you guys are watching this because this will be my first time watching it fully too! The funny thing is though having been watching anime of all genres since I was about 9 or 10 Ive come to know a lot about Death Note without even having watched it. I do think you guys made the right choice in doing the English dub it’s iconic and in my opinion one of the best dubbed anime’s and I usually prefer subs. There is so many memes I’m excited to jump in!
Jae
2024-11-25 18:14:00 +0000 UTCDub or sub, both are really good! I'm excited to enjoy this ride with you guys!

2024-11-25 18:02:51 +0000 UTCPlease keep watching in Dub! Death Note is one of the few anime I will say is good in Dub or Subbed. But many of us first watched it in Dub as this was one of the best first anime series people would suggest to watch when getting into anime.
Tina
2024-11-25 18:01:56 +0000 UTCYou chose dub, I celebrate. Happy days

2024-11-25 17:57:48 +0000 UTCI’m actually reading one piece! I’m a big reader so I’ve been splitting my list up and doing manga as well. I’ve been reading one piece and Vinland saga both awesome!
DezzCuse
2024-11-25 17:55:58 +0000 UTCyeah the series is 2 season but my personal opinion is they should had ended in one season but the manager of the mangaka who wrote the story because of it success wanted it to continue and lets say wasn't us good us season 1.
Vasileios Mitsos
2024-11-25 17:55:52 +0000 UTCWatch One Piece, you won’t regret it

2024-11-25 17:53:41 +0000 UTCI need to do more back end. I was touching the sun with the way my schedule was. 🤙

2024-11-25 17:50:34 +0000 UTCTokyo Ghoul was a great manga but the anime adaption isn't really the best unfortunately
Limini
2024-11-25 17:50:19 +0000 UTCIt is now, thanks :) Also, is there a reason Dave isnt watching it?

2024-11-25 17:48:48 +0000 UTCThought it was there. Try it now.

2024-11-25 17:45:56 +0000 UTCThis is the ONLY anime I’ve ever watched in DUB and it’s SO GOOD. Which I was very happy about because sometimes there’s an influx of information / fast talking and I couldn’t imagine trying to keep up with Subs (not that I would mind but still) lol
Layla
2024-11-25 17:43:37 +0000 UTCtheres alot more dialogue so dub is best for this
Gregory Sambrano
2024-11-25 17:41:43 +0000 UTCY’all made the right decision on dub! I’m almost always a sub watcher as sub is superior 95% of the time, but the anime community is actually very consolidated on which animes should be watched in dub (generally older anime), and Deathnote is one of those. Each anime you watch you should get a very solid read of what the community prefers by just looking at the comments leading up to it, as you did correctly here 👌
Kevin
2024-11-25 17:41:30 +0000 UTCCan't wait to watch this amazing series with y'all. Also glad you watched dub, i watch sub with almost every anime except with shows like Death Note, Cowboy Bebop and Ghibli movies.
Mintteacup
2024-11-25 17:39:14 +0000 UTCThanks for doing the dub, you wont be dissapointed!
Sean
2024-11-25 17:37:27 +0000 UTCWatching full metal alchemist at the moment and god damn is it good!
DezzCuse
2024-11-25 17:35:31 +0000 UTCI love sub always but I will say death note has a good dub with some iconic lines
Zack Sutton
2024-11-25 17:34:20 +0000 UTCYay! Dub is typically the correct decision for death note, it’s one of the best English dubs, which you don’t find often at all. There’s also a lot of really infamous lines in the English dub that you just have to hear to get the full experience haha
Faiza
2024-11-25 17:34:10 +0000 UTCI would recommend soul eater, full metal alchemist: brotherhood, Tokyo ghoul, deadman wonderland
Clorox bleach G
2024-11-25 17:33:21 +0000 UTCthis is great....because I have actually never seen Death Note. FTW for moi
KamiGema
2024-11-25 17:33:03 +0000 UTCI'm really interested to see you experience this journey. I have to admit that, though I voted for Death Note, I actually don't really like this series. On the whole, it wasn't what I wanted it to be, and I can't stand Light. If I've gotten to know you all through your reactions at all... I suspect you'll feel similarly about Light, and I'm curious to see if that'll impact your enjoyment the way it did mine. But Death Note is one of those series that's made a really huge impact in the anime community, and it's definitely on the list of shows I think everyone who's trying to get into anime should see, even if I personally don't love it. (And I don't think you'll run into too much backlash for the dub vs sub thing here... My impression has been that DN's dub was generally very well received.)

Zack Sutton
2024-11-25 17:31:59 +0000 UTCBeen a fan of Death Note for years and I’ve always seen people being very happy with the dubbed version, and I totally agree! Can’t wait to watch 🤩

2024-11-25 17:31:34 +0000 UTCYo I forgot we are getting new anime!!!!! Let's go!!!!!
Zack Sutton
2024-11-25 17:31:19 +0000 UTCUsually I'm for sub but the death note dub is really great and I the localization was done splendidly

2024-11-25 17:30:50 +0000 UTCGot into anime cause of you guys and got this huge list now 😂😂. Been waiting to start this one for you guys! Hyped to get going! Hope you guys have a great holiday!
