I love to see how japanese fans (The original fans of any anime and mangas) liked the Death Note movies. I can’t really understand why half of us, the “western people”, hated them in the first place.
I know most people will start pointing out that Tatsuya Fujiwara (Yagami Light’s actor) didn’t do the part. I would say: Are you blind? Yeah, I don’t deny that maybe, in our perspective, he doesn’t look a lot like Light, but does that matter? For me, he was indeed able to catch Light’s creppy, manipulative and badass personality perfectly, and even was able to put a little of himself there.
I’m not saying the movies are superior to the anime and manga, but I still like them a lot, because they offer you another version of Death Note.
List is missing Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge, which I thought was a pretty good movie and a decent adaptation of the manga.
