| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- What, nobody wants to talk about Desu Noto? :) For the manga readers, no big surprises here, but another great episode, even so. L hopping around Misa like a monkey was my favorite part, personally. |

| Yup, definitely another good episode. L really pisses me off though. I can't remember, what were the reasons they started suspecting Misa-chan again? Was it because they found her dating Light? It pisses me off that the anime adds in little stuff that the manga never had (Remu touching Misa's hair). |
| Eh...I'm torn on this. It's nice that they're being so faithful to the manga and all, but if it's going to be EXACTLY like the manga, what's the point, really? Plus they're going to have to skip a lot to get it all in 37 episodes, so they're probably trying to cut some corners and advance things a lot faster. As for Misa, I think they started suspecting her because of her involvement with Light and then clinched it with the evidence she left behind. Plus her parents' murderer was killed by Kira, so there's already sort of a link. |
|
| If they wern't faithful, we would have a horde of people complaining that it's different. The point of it... so non-manga readers can get introduced to the story? Anime reaches out to a greater audience then manga does. |
| Yeah, I understand that, reaching a larger market and all that, but I guess my point is that the manga is good enough to not need an exact, frame-by-frame animated version. Don't get me wrong, I love the anime thus far - the voices, the music, the animation quality - but it's an adaptation of the manga, so it's not going to be exact. It can't be exact, not in 37 episodes, and frankly anyone who expects that is setting himself/herself up to be disappointed. I already know where it's going so I kind of like it when they change things - keeps me guessing instead of knowing what they're going to do or say before they do or say it. Part of the fun of watching an adaptation is seeing what was changed, taken out, added in, and trying to understand the reasoning behind it, how it affects the story as it's now being told. As long as they're true to the characters and underlying themes in the story, I'm happy. Maybe they'll get so crunched for time they'll have to write out Near and Mello... ;) |

| See I guess my problem is, Death Note is now about 2x less interesting now that I've read the manga. I know what's going to happen, and I know what the anime "screwed up" in my mind. So, when they change it in a way that I think is worse than how the manga portrayed it, it bugs. |
| ... I guess its a good thing DN (the manga) isn't in Australia yet. Crystal is right though; anime reaches out to more people. I've mentioned it before, that i only read 3 manga series. Excel Saga, Fruits Basket and Rurouni Kenshin. Finding manga is difficult for me sometimes, and i don't want to download manga because the quality wanes down. I "tried" to read a chapter of Fruits Basket on Mangavolume.com, and i just got annoyed with the quality. Oh! DN Episode 15? Awesome episode. Best one so far. I guess when L studied the hair samples, CSI style, he found out that the hair belonged to Misa. (Disclamer; The CSI scenes were cut out. Of course, that could have been an anime-only scene. ^.^) |
| just get manga from a decent source, almost all scanlations are full quality |
| I loved this episode! I felt so sad for Rem, I wanted to cry XD |
| Light Fan <3 |

I get what you mean - I hate it when anime adaptations are worse than the manga because of taking stuff out/putting random stuff in etc. It's like a cover song that's worse than the original D: but seeing as I read the manga a year or so ago it's not spoiling the anime, even though I know what's coming next x3 have to say, love L to pieces in this ep ^^ |
 |
| It's so sad that Rem left Misa. Maybe Misa will jog her memory and remember something about Rem. But,why'd Light just say "Say goodbye.Ryuk." ? |
ManU-Alchemist said: What oes he mean by Good bye Ryuk? He's going to dispose of his Death Note too, I guess. Good episode. |

devilish000 said: ManU-Alchemist said: What oes he mean by Good bye Ryuk? He's going to dispose of his Death Note too, I guess. Good episode. Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. It just seems like the story's almost over and everything's about to come to a head and end.. but we're too soon into the story for that to be the case, so I'm all o.O trying to figure out if they're going to be annoying and just drag the story out like insanely. Loving the series thus far, just worried about the future eps. |
    |
| AHAHAHAHA!! L's so cute! hahaha.. he's misa's fan!!! and touched her behind too! hahaha.. and pretending it wasn't him.. hahaha!!! L's so funny.. or was he just pretending to be misa's fan??? anyway... L saved his own life and even apprehended misa... all in one go... i guess his gamble paid off.. i feel so sorry for misa though.. she was like being tortured.. no.. she WAS being tortured.. was she like that for days???? and what does light mean by saying goodbye to ryuk???? huh? |
| wow misa really loves light, i get the feeling its only one sided though. === so ryuk's getting fired now? |
| Misa.. why she didn's see that Light is just used her? |
| I like how Rem is so much more involved than Ryuk. But wow, things really seem to be turning around. Too bad Misa is going to live because Rem likes her for some reason >.> |
| WOW... He said "Sayonara Ryuk"... Does that mean we're not gonna see him again :(? |
     |
| That was clever of "L" and the whole cell phone thing. o.o We'll see if Light can get Misa,himself and the death god's out of this mess. His "Plan" is probably gonna shock us all or either just kill "L" as soon as he can. ;>.> |
     |
| Seeing L flip out when he saw Misa was too funny! Great ep, I hope Misa is saved. |
     |
| Well its the same if you watch the anime first, then read the manga you wont find the manga as interesting =.=. Great show so far imo. Ive watched 15 episodes consecutively now haha |
 |
| this episode was terrific ^^ I can't belive that everything was fine in 1 second and in the next...bam..they caught misa...i'm yet to understand how they figured out that she could be kira2 The way they kept her for 3(three) days was horrible,i almost burst into tears :(,she doesn't deserve that,she has a good soul,even though she' s a baka :( i hope that she will get out of there soon... also,I don't think Light will give up on his death note so easly,he will find another way to free Misa i think Death Note keeps getting better and better :D,i can't wait for the next episode! |

| I highly doubt that he would kill himself so that must mean he will destroy his death note... somehow I don't see it happening but idk... |
 |
| Superb episode, I really liked the scenes with the selphones and even if I don't think Misa is a great character, it was kinda sad seeing her in that state. And Sayonara Ryuk? What the hell is Light thinking? |
 |
| Holy f**k! I was liking her and now this! And the kiss was not that romantic, I'll miss her. But maybe she will still be part of this since according to MAL she is a main character. For this I almost wish that L would loose. |
| I like Misa, she added another dimension to this show wiping out her memories... That mean she won't remember L's true name, though I also doubt she'd remember after being tortured for 3 days... can't say I'm a fan of how Misa is being treated... |

| That was maybe the best episode so far. It started with L saying, "If I die, Light is Kira." and the way he got himself out of this mess in general was awesome. And then the part with Misa's arrestment. She loses her powers for Light, which is only using her. It was pretty sad, to be honest. |

| *dramatic music* |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| ryuk..... He mostly laughed in the background and only gave important things the owner of the death note asked for. I can't wait for the twist. |
Xinil said: It pisses me off that the anime adds in little stuff that the manga never had (Remu touching Misa's hair). This is not from the manga? Too bad, 'cause I was thinking that L will get to know the truth about shinigami because of this moment... Anyway - it's sad that Misa had to give up on her notebook, but I guess it was too easy for L to catch her, even if Light is still quite the challenge for him. |
  |
| Love this episode |
| Another great one though what does Light mean at the end with Goodbye Ryuk ? |
 |
| Good episode again. Misa is out of the game finally, hated her. What's that about saying goodbye to Ryuk I wonder? |

| L discovered that tapes,so he knows that Misa is 2nd Kira... Will se what happen next,i hope Light will save Misa. |

| L, OL That face when he touched Misa's butt.. This time is L win? |
"Signature removed"   |
| Ok this is starting to be a very good episode... xD |
 |
| I sort of disliked Misa but that moment when she was all wrapped up in that equipment for questioning... and when Rem took her memories away... that was really sad. I'm excited about the episodes to come, I wonder how all this is gonna work out. And the brunette with the twin tails from the opening whom Light offers his hand? Is she gonna actually appear on the show? Or she's already appeared and I just didn't see her? |

| Damn, Misa's perseverance and dedication is strong. Isn't it kind of torturous for L and the Police to put her into that much strain?!

| Light is saying good bye to Ryuk, that isn't surprising. If I were Light, and if it ever came to forfeiting the Death Note I would probably keep a paper hidden inside his desk so that he can remember his purpose of defeating L. If L dies, then Light becomes the primary suspect, but if he doesn't save Misa he dies. Either way L has the situation controlled for now. Light has to make a choice, should he turn the situation into a rescue mission and face L at a later time or finish L and put himself as a primary suspect. Darn school room is so cold, I can't think properly. |
