Nah, you're assuming that ppl who like BB might like GoT or that trash show Supernatural or would put them on the same level or are even slightly interested in them. Just cuz GoT is popular doesn't say anything about ppl who don't like stories dealing with the supernatural genre. Considering the popularity of other genres holds no weight in this instance.
No. I was saying that since GoT, supernatural, etc are of the supernatural genre and are really popular. Death's note content isn't too out there when compared to said shows' content.
Ryuk is a flying god of death. Yet in GoT, you have some chick who has a demon come out of her stomach.
Not to mention all the other "weird stuff" in superhero movies. Thor, The Wolverine, Green Lantern.
I would assume that most people are interested in similar genres regardless of the medium. I myself am interested in action/adventure. So I'm into action/adventure movies, books, anime, tv shows, comics, etc.
I find this assumption to be supported by most of the people who I talk to.
Some ppl simply don't like some genres. It wouldn't matter if it was good. Your examples don't really change the argument. They're outliers at best.
Anime isn't a genre. It's a medium.
I read the entire manga. I don't need to watch the entire anime other than to be disappointed in w/e was added or left out of the original story for the anime version.
It dropped in quality for sure. All of the psychological warfare drops a notch when the two new opponents appea
I don't agree, since Light was always doing something to lure out N.
If that happens in the anime, then you've really turned me off of checking it out.
Yes. Saying that doesn't even make sense though cuz they were only able to take down Light because of what L did up to his death and Near only succeeded in part cuz of what Mello did up to his death. First you'd have to change the story involving L's death and then make sense of how Light would go on to continue his charade for the next couple years along with the other DN users that were involved to set up that finale. So exactly how is L going to do the same thing they did? Near won due in parts of the actions of Mello and L (realizing the rules about the DN were a lie, the lawyer brought in, the kidnappings, etc.). That's a group effort despite them not being teamed up. L vs. Light was one on one and that's the way both wanted it. There's no way L would've taken down Light the way Near did or the way Mello tried
Obviously, L coudn't have done things the exact same way.
The question was hypothetical.
Near and Mello were L's successors. It's safe to say that if L was not introduced until some pre-L character died at the hands of Light, then L would have acted in the same way as Near/Mello.
You can see some of the L's attributes in mello/near
Example L attribute in mello(rash): kidnapping that one chick
Example L attribute in near: pretty much everything he did
Mello/Near are like L split in half.
This is an assumption and no they didn't do what he would've done. The only life L was willing to risk was his own. He wasn't as reckless as Mello or as timid as Near. They both fell short in living up to L and know they were not his equal. Not to mention he didn't gain the help needed to take down Light like Mello and Near did by indirectly helping each other
In the anime, Light said that he felt like he's being haunted by the ghost of L.
That is an example of the anime showing that that's what L would have done.
They even showed a freeze frame of L.
It's obvious that Near and mello are like L's split personalities. In the anime both mello/near have similar quirks that L had.
It's only until Near/mello indirectly work together to stop light is when they become L 2.0.
If mello/near were one character, the show would have been less interesting.
He's bascially be a carbon copy of L, which would have made L's death meaningless.
I was confused why there were suddenly 49 replies
