Is there a series better than Death Note?
what makes death note a good anime upto a certain episode (fans know what episode i am talking about) is because of the duo believing in a sense of justice clashing with each other because of their method of achieving it.the psyche of the antagonist became more and more pschopathic intensifying the game of wits between the duo.the mindgames are …
Some of the short anime that I saw are :
Unfortunately, there is still no official confirmation that a sequel to the original anime is happening. You might be wondering why it took so long for Madhouse to come up with a sequel for the series despite the extreme popularity of the first anime. One of the main reasons is the lack of source material.

Apart from L, Near is easily the smartest character in the series – smarter even than his partner, Mello. Near managed to make it to the very end, but he probably wouldn't have caught Light or made it as far as he did without the help of L and Mello.

They often decided on the name of the following chapter while he made corrections to the one he was then working on. Ohba selected the names of Chapters 107 and 108 before the thumbnail stages. After Chapter 3, Ohba decided each chapter name would be a single Japanese word. Around the time he was naming Chapter 4, he began to "have fun" with the names and began trying to avoid spoilers in the names. He wanted many of the titles to have multiple meanings.
When high school student Light Yagami finds a notebook called the "Death Note", which gives him the ability to kill anyone he recognizes by sight by simply writing their name in it, he begins mass murdering criminals to create a world free of evil and to eventually become its god.
In addition to these, a guidebook for the manga, Death Note 13: How to Read, was also published on October 13, 2006. The guidebook has information about the series, with character profiles, creator interviews, and the pilot chapter that preceded Death Note.
Ten years after the events of Kira, Ryuk returns to the human world and approaches Minoru Tanaka, a middle-school student as intelligent as Light, and offers him the Death Note. Minoru inquires about Kira's use of the book, as well as the rules of the Death Note. As the world has adopted more intense surveillance to prevent another Kira incident, Minoru devises a scheme and willingly gives Ryuk the notebook back but asks him to return in two years before he loses his memories. Two years later, Ryuk returns and touches Minoru with the book, restoring his memories. Minoru reveals his plan is to auction off the power Kira had to the highest bidder, and uses Ryuk to have this broadcast over television. The bids over social media escalate quickly, while Near and the surviving SPK members, having had touched the Death Note previously, see Ryuk via camera footage but no way to trace him to the new "A-Kira". SPK try to catch Ryuk during another message but inadvertently appear on-screen, giving weight to the seriousness of the auction, and soon world leaders start bidding, including the presidents of China and the United States (appearing similar to Xi Jinping and Donald Trump, respectively, though otherwise not named) The US president offers a bid of a quadrillion yen, upon which Minoru decides to close the auction. Through Ryuk, Minoru instructs the U.S. to deposit the amount across all accounts of Japanese citizens under 60 years old with Yotsuba bank accounts, an amount that comes to roughly one billion yen per person. However, the activities on Earth over the Death Note have alerted the Shinigami King, who orders Ryuk to come once he leaves Minoru. After the U.S. follows through on payment, Minoru relinquishes the Death Note again for Ryuk to deliver and asks him never to see him again. Near realizes that A-Kira's activities have made it impossible to identify his identity outside of one to benefit from this economic boon, and abandons the case. When Ryuk arrives at the White House, Ryuk reveals there was a change in the Death Note rules by the King: that anyone attempting to sell or purchase the book would be killed upon completion of the sale. The President refuses to take ownership of the book, and instead will assert that he still has the power of Kira but chooses not to use it to improve his standing. To follow the new rule, Ryuk writes Minoru's name in the Death Note when he attempts to take out his share of the newfound wealth, killing him.
Light meets the owner of the Death Note, a Shinigami named Ryuk, who allows Light to use the notebook under his watch. When law enforcement and the public realize someone is committing the killings, they nickname the unknown killer "Kira".
When the "Death Note" anime TV series premiered in 2006, it quickly established itself as a global phenomenon that's still felt today. For instance, the series has led to a multitude of live-action films, musicals, and even video games.
For all the praise that the "Death Note" anime series received, there are many who feel that the ending was lackluster. With Ryuk establishing at the beginning of the series that he would be the one to sign Light's name in the notebook, it already gave the show an out that made sense.
The anime adaptation of the manga by writer Tsugumi Ohba and artist Takeshi Obata boldly stood out during its shared era with its Shonen Jump peers in " Naruto ," "Bleach," and "One Piece.". Sure, "Death Note" contained a story of a protagonist gifted with a supernatural ability.
The renowned anime series, Death Note has been revived and is set to be released worldwide on Netflix on August 25. If you’ve never seen the Japanese manga series, then you’re in for a delight—and if you have, then you know all about what’s to come. Does Light die in Death Note?
Light creates an alter ego named Kira who attempts to create and rule a world that’s free of evil, by using the notebook to kill everyone he deems evil. Eventually law enforcement catches wind of this serial killer, and Death Note follows their pursuit of Kira, and Kira’s progress towards creating his ideal world.
The only reason there’s a question as to whether or not the manga series will maintain its original storyline in the new adaptation, is because director Adam Wingard has decided to take the live-action version in a different direction—and the internet hasn’t taken to kindly to it.
The series follows Light Tagami, a high school student who discovers a supernatural notebook where if the owner writes down the name of an individual, they’ll die from an otherwise completely unexplained cause.
There’s still a chance that Death Note will be a huge hit when it comes out today, so there is still hope that Netflix could sign on for a sequel! We’ll have to wait and see what it does for director Adam Wingard, and the rest of Death Note fans.
10 The Story’s Ending Was Different. At the end of Death Note, Light Yagami turns up dead after getting exposed as Kira. However, the way he dies is shown differently in both the manga and the anime. In the manga, Light begs Ryuk to kill Near and Matsuda but instead, the Shinigami writes Light’s name instead.
When Light starts using the death note, we see how much of his mental state has changed. In the manga, he suffers some physical harm to his body as he develops trouble sleeping and eating. We see him losing some weight since he doesn’t have much of an appetite.
When L falls off his chair in the manga, we see him saying to himself that he was right all along about Light being the killer. However, the anime didn’t show his final thoughts and instead, we see L looking blankly at Light, which could imply that he figured it out as Light smirks at him as L died in his arms.
5 Light Laughed At The Death Note In the Manga. When Light first encounters Ryuk, he was initially frightened by the sight of him. However, it was the reaction to the death note at first glance that caught him off guard. His response was he thought of it as a simple joke in the manga and laughed at the notion of its rules.
Light runs away from the police after getting exposed, but Ryuk sees that his life was basically over so he writes Light’s name and kills him.
1 An Epilogue Was Added After The Manga Ended. After the manga came to a close, Death Note was given a one-shot special that acted as an epilogue to the series. Taking place three years after the end of the series, it followed Near as he assumes the position as the new L.
Death Note is one of many anime adaptations from manga, and as usual, there have been some major changes. Death Note has seen its fair share of popularity when it comes to the manga and the anime adaptation. We got to see the whole story unfold on both versions, with some minor differences of course. No matter how you look at it, Death Note managed ...

One of the most fascinating characters in the manga is Ryuk, a bored Shinigami creature who desires to wreak havoc in the human world. Less than intrigued with his own realm, Ryuk drops the bloodthirsty "Death Note" notebook from the sky to see which poor mortal soul (which happens to be Light) would take it and becomes its owner.
Another frustrating aspect of "Death Note" is that the characters blatantly ignore the rules, or have little to no knowledge of how the notebook works.
In the manga, people often die from a heart attack after having their name written down in the Death Note. However, Wingard's film opts for "Final Destination"-style, over-the-top, brutal kills, from having one of Light's bullies get decapitated after a ladder slices his head off, to having a gratuitous slaughter-fest in a Japanese nightclub.
There is an intensely comical chase scene toward the end of the film featuring the police, L, and Light, with Light's father, James (Shea Whigham), a police detective tasked to aid in solving the Kira case, following them.
Indeed, humans are interesting and that's one of the perplexing facets of "Death Note," even though the entire movie adaptation felt silly and forced to many. The overarching theme of justice, which is essential to the story of both the manga and anime series, is tossed aside in the film and there's zero reflection on morality by the end credits.
