the human whose name is written in this note shall die….
The tagline for death note’s movie….
‘the human whose name is written in this note shall die…’
cool huh…?? takeshi obata is GODLIKE…!!!
and YESH..!! I’VE WATCHED IT..!!!*throws confetti*
and man, it’s goooooood……they actually MADE ryukku..!! and it looks superb..!!! ok, before i start to blab about the movie..let me make things clear first…haha….
*BE WARNED THAT THERE ARE SPOILERS FOR THE MOVIE AS WELL AS MANGA AND ANIME IN THIS POST*
*DO NOT CONTINUE READING IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED..I MEAN IT..!! DONT BLAME ME FOR RUINNING YOUR STORY*
ahem…ok, now that THAT’s done….
i feel that somehow the movie is sort of…distorted from the anime and manga….
there are some added characters……like..shouri..(WHO THE HECK IS SHOURI..!?!)
apparently raito has a girlfriend….and her name is shouri…….at first, when i saw the movie, i was like…ok….who is this..i don’t remember her..then i later realised that SHE DOES NOT EXIST IN THE ORIGINAL STORYLINE…!!!
and another thing, if my memory served my correctly, Raito (yeah, i prefer to call him raito, rather than light…^^;;;) picked the book up from his school compound, and not some alleyway……oh, by the way, he sounded like an OJISAN when he first saw Ryukku….haha….
there are many other differences i spotted when i watched the movie….
like, in the movie, misa misa is not BLONDE…,and RAY PENBAR’s name has been changed to RAY IWATSUKI…@_@;;;; what happened to the GAIJIN-ness..??
and they didn’t really explain about the bargain for the deathgod’s eyes….(or maybe i was too bz looking at ryukku that time till i didn’t realise..@_@;;;)
haha…..
ok, somehow, in the movie, Raito seemed a little more like a psycho and sadistic killer than in the anime…i’m not saying that Tatsuya Fujiwara (the person who plays raito) is a bad actor…..it’s just that, it’s not as accurate as i thought…
like, for example, in the anime and manga, raito takes no chances and hides the note in a magnificent way….(the drawer thingy, blablabla…then fire…then blablabla….watch the anime…you’ll know what i’m talking about..)
but in the movie, he just..dump it on his table…..(i was like…WTH.!?!?)
and he scribbles the names of criminals in public….!!!! and in front of NAOMI too..!!!(when naomi gave him the fake card name)…
GOSH, how careless is that?!?!?!??!
raito in the manga would never do such a careless and dangerous thing!!!!
that was the one thing that made me feel uneasy watching the movie…..
other than that, well, overall the movie was entertainning…haha..i never knew ryukku’s obsession towards apples is so great…(he even knocked his head against the wall just because raito wouldn’t give him any apples…haha…)
i’m greatly amazed by how they brought ryukku to life….i’m here struggling to create a 3D character for my assignment and there they can bring such a difficult character to life….seriously…i SALUTE!!!!
oh oh!!! another thing…AOYAMA SOUTA IS MATSUDA IN DEATH NOTE!!!!!!!
in the beginning i was cracking my head thinking who that guy was….i kept saying…that guy looks very familiar….i kept repeating that…then it struck me…
OMG.!!!!!! i was like..OMG…that’s INUI!!!! (aoyama souta was the person who acted as inui in the first few tenimyus…) HE LOOKED SOOOOOOOOOO ADORABLE AND CUTE AS MATSUDA..!!! and gosh, stupid me, i didn’t know the L actor, Kenichi Matsuyama is the same person who acted as SHIN in NANA…well, i didn’t know his name until today..haha…)
well, besides that, i found out that I HAVE THE DLOADED THE UNCUT VERSION OF THE MOVIE.!!! when i played my dloaded version(yeah, still on death note high and decided to watch again..), the part where misa misa was chased after by a psychotic perverted guy was kinda ’shortened’ in the movie….REMU actually appeared in the uncut version…..and i’m beginning to doubt that REMU is a female…HE SOUNDS SOOOO KAKOI!!! XD XD
well, after that, i also found out that….DEATH NOTE : THE LAST NAME is out..!!! OMG….it was released in japan on the 3rd of november and stayed top of the list for 2 weeks….!!!(i think it was 2 weeks….@_@;;) and OMG….THE TRAILER….i’ve seen it many many times, but somehow, after watching the movie, i rewatch the trailer again and it seemed even more exciting..!!!!
i can’t wait for the 2nd movie to be released here in msia..!! OMG….but i wonder if it’ll be in the cinemas again….??? *prays that it’ll be*
i wanna watch the torture part…wanna watch the date part (where L and raito are handcuffed together..haha..), and ultimately, watch the victor smirk when the opponent falls…..loved that part VERY VERY MUCH….i hope Tatsuya Fujiwara can smirk evilly….<<is there such a word.1?!?!
anyway, i wouldn’t say that this movie is VERY VERY VERY VERY NICE……but i recommend it to any anime fan who follows the story….and for those who loves story regarding justice, death, shinigamis….GOSH..WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR..1?!??!?
GO WATCH IT…!!!!!
oh, just thought i’d say this……I’M ON KIRA’S SIDE….ALWAYS HAVE…ALWAYS WILL……

Himiko>>> where do you live? Its already in WPKL and Selangor Malaysia,…but perhaps its not in the other states yet?
Aiyah,… Hitokiri ah,…Takeshi Obata was suspected of murder of the person who edited his original story….both of them had some conflict about the story-change…so somehow,…wat u c is different from the original story. So,…not sure how Takeshi Obata would be proven of his innocence/guilt.
PS: Takeshi Obata is the person who created DeathNote Manga….
November 12th, 2006 at 2:06 am
WOW….takeshi sensei actually killed a person..!?!?!!
you sure ka…..hard to believe lor…but i know he’s arrested for drugs and illegal knife thingy in his car la..(was it that guy ka.?? or was it another person..??)
himiko>> well, not every cinema has the movie….like..berjaya timesquare….@_@;;; they dun have it there…haha..
*glompz himiko and wouldn’t let go*
November 14th, 2006 at 7:26 pm
O?I also donno tt Takeshi Obata killed a person too~
Another interest thing in the movie is about Souichirou Yagami (Dunno the spelling correct or not but he is Raito’s dad la). I feel tt he also acts well in this movie. Look at his facial expression after he met L…He just look like cannot tahan what L does…haha…
N then…i ady know the story n ending of part 2…Can’t wait to watch liao….hope tt can fly to either HK or TW to watch la~ *sigh*
November 15th, 2006 at 9:29 am
haha..well, wait a little while more, it’ll definitely be out for dloads..haha..
but then again, I am also waiting for it to be screened in the cinemas….HAFTA WATCH BIG SCREEN..!! XD XD
well, one thing i disaprove about yagami souichirou in the movie……
WHERE’S THE MOUSTACHE?!?!! ^^;;

Aiyah,…i din say he’s a convict,…being proven guilty or anything,…He’s highly suspicious though due to the previous case mentioned by Hitokiri. This sorta action can lead to violence,…hence murder,…
