First of all, I apologize if the above screencap isn’t something you’d like to see on top of an entry. ^^ I haven’t properly capped the episode and that’s all I could come up with for the time being. Spoilers for the episode after you click on the link.
Death Note 37
I’m among those who disagree with Madhouse for rewriting chapter 107. Doing so is very detrimental to the dramatic impact. I was afraid Madhouse would attempt to portray our resident megalomaniacal psycho in a more sympathetic light, and I wasn’t wrong – they did. *pulls a face* The fan in me thinks that they consider too much screaming and evil laughter is okay for manga, but would be an overkill in an audio-visual medium.
Animation is heart-pounding, and the scene in the previous episode where Mikami is writing down the names almost knocked me off my feet. Speaking of Mikami – what did he stab himself with, and if it was his pen, how come it made him spout off blood so – well, so profusely?
Last but definitely not least: Mamo, wonderful job. No, I shan’t offer to have your babies, since that’s not how I feel about you. (I tend to think of the TeniMyu guys as little brothers) May you live long and enjoy a prosperous career.
