just wondering when is it gonna be out

Patience young one, in due time.

Hmm, that was nicely done.


Winning animation helped a lot with this awesome episode, & i'm waiting for the "Misa is stupid" comments. -_-

ummm
 

maybe i'm stupid but it seems that all torrent downloads for this series show 0 uploaders and 0 downloaders?

not to mention that episode 13 is not posted yet people seem to be getting it somehow from anime suki...?? is there something i'm missing here?

Dang...Light is evil! Did you see that look on his face at the end? WOW!

I had no idea that, that girl was going to break down like that. That was kinda suprising.... I have no idea how things are going to go now, CAN'T WAIT FOR 14!

Couple of strange things in the ep tho....

hmmmm I comment on the random pointless stuff.

LOL, random and indeed pointless, but good observation!

When
 

Hi all fans of the series.

Can any1 tell me where to get the episode 13and ongoing, i have been looking like crazy everywhere and can´t find it, i just saw that it has been removed from this site, but can anyone lead me to where to get it.

Regards North

It's great that you like the series (it is very good), but it has been licensed by Viz. The good news is that Viz has plans to release the episodes with subs for download soon after they are broadcast in Japan. Yes they will be charging for the service, but you'll be supporting the industry by downloading them legitimately.

I also doubt that any legit fansub group will continue subbing the series in light of this.

Wasn't a part of the original definition of "legit fansub group" that they stop when licensed?

This is true. :heh:

Confession
 

As both Omni and Garten pointed out in their respective blogs, I do also agree with them that Ryuk's subtle but deliberate inconvenience forgetting to tell Light about the whole set of rules and Shinigami's nature plays a trigger for placing misfortunes and frustrations upon Light at expense of his identity being found out just for Ryuk to amuse himself or have fun.

However, for newcomers I must tell you that this inconveniences, which are conveniently acted out throughout each of the anime episodes, serve as a reminder that Ryuk's neither an ally nor enemy to Light, L, or anyone's else.

Shinigami are neutral, ambivalent, and ambiguous to the affairs of humans and do not become involved unless the Death Note holder (Light's in this case) coerces the Shinigami in some way to help him or her.

As we have seen in the previous episode, unlike Ryuk Rem's not that careless to let herself exposed her vulnerabilities to Misa.

Ok. During the previous episodes I thought of Misa as that capricious, valley girl with gothic fetish, lacking common sense not to disclose too much unneeded hints that would compromise Light and the Death Note.

But for some reason for this episode my outlook on her spun a 180 degree revolution. I became warming up to her and felt attracted, particularly with that black and revealing dress which makes her hot; her teary eyes; and that sad expression which makes her moe, though from a morbid view.

However, Misa's critical flaw, as I have posted in the previous discussion thread, that she's malleable. That means she's getting herself manipulated by Light to her own free will. And unfortunately, she has exposed too much of her vulnerabilities before Light.
The worst part of the deal she's well aware and conscentious that Light made it clear he's not romantically interested and not at all with her, nonetheless, she'll follow him everywhere even if that means also to a path for damnation.



But, still I dislike how Misa deprecates her self-worth and individuality just for Light to embrace her with a diminutive hope, even if she's willing to put up and live a lie; evident when she gets all emotional, bursting to tears for attempting with every word to attain Light's trust; I do think that Misa was truly honest about her life story, but again the problem is that she gives it all to Light; her anxieties, frustrations, ideals, tragedies, all of her life issues as a deliberate act for Light to put her into submission of his will just to earn his trust.

Her initial anxiety upon arriving at Light's house and meeting him was played out naturally which made her reaction very believable; after all, she has nominated herself as Kira's #1 fangirl, so her nervousness upon talking to Light face to face was fitting, and I daresay it looked also moe to me.


From this point onwards, the plot is going to thicken up.

P.S. Anyone noticed Sayu's priceless face when Misa stepped in to the Yagami's home?
Either Sayu thinks Misa's plainly weird given the latter's fashion sense or maybe the possible implication that she was shocked to find out that her brother never told that his "girlfriend" was such a sexy and hot beauty.:heh:

Fantastic episode, though it seemed too short for some reason. I can't really understand what's going on on Misa's mind. Sometimes she seems completely dumb, some other times she can be a little intelligent. Who knows, maybe she won't be used by Light so easily. And I'm not so sure that the story about her parents is true...

PS. Light's smile at the end was priceless.

Did you miss the sticky saying it's licensed and the license discussion thread? :/

You're wrong, as written in one of the past interposals about the rules of a Death note, Shinigami do not know the whole rulebook. I believe Ryuk states this in the first episode, and also he says in this episode the detail (eyes can't see another owner's time left) had been unknown to him.
