Death note

The beginning was a bit of a mouthful, but since I wasn’t a fanatical fan of the prequel, I didn't mind certain changes at all; on the contrary, I thought it was nice that it didn't repeat what has been said a thousand times, I'm happy with the result. At the beginning I thought Kubota was better, but then Yamazaki just got who this L was and started to outplay Kubota, and I enjoyed his L quite a lot. I'd say I probably even liked him better than the Matsuyama Ken'ichi one. Despite the weaker start, the finish was more of a pleasant surprise as it was packed with emotion. It certainly doesn't do its subject matter any disgrace. (18.09.2015)
