Have to admit, that week went fast.

Very much looking forward to see episode --- for the main reason everyone is.

Since for some reason my comment got deleted, here's a 2chan link for their current Death Note discussion. The link will be deleted later, when bloggers get the chance to post the images themselves.

Spoiler for NSFW warning:

Raw is out, so link is removed.

Also, because I believe it is worth noting yet again:

[Ban_Mido]

Awesome! So Good! I want to watch it!

[aohige]

ZOMG.... they didn't show ANY important pictures in the preview.
They avoided everything possible to leak any spoilers out.

Spoiler:

It just shows pictures of the buildings, and only one word uttered.
L: "farewell"

Great episode. Finally, another episode that sends chills down your spine.

Also, i'll post what monir said in the episode 23 thread:

[aardvark]

That was.... EPIC.

No other word to describe it. Holy shit

Indeed, anyone who doesn't give this episode a 10 fails at life. :3

[zalem]

Awesome episode. They really did a great job bringing the manga to life in this episode.

....that smirk was perfect.

[monir]

Screenshots: Awesome, awesome episode. I plan to watch this a couple of more time. This should be an awesome episode for all the crazed Light fans/screaming-fangirls/noisy-fanboys who practically go nuts when he is on screen.

Spoiler for Highlights:

I liked the way how they showed Light getting his memories back. Kind of overdone it with the scream. It's obvious L noticed the change in Light while he was checking the list of names in the Death Note. I think they added the part where L doesn't notice the Death Note being taken away from him as a queue for the sudden heightened suspicion. It's portrayed better than the Manga at this part.

Brilliantly executed scene with the ticking sound and everyone panicking including L. You can really feel the burst of power that Light has regained. Next target - Ryuuzaki.

Funny how Ryuk went transparent because he was blushing! Also sad to see Misa being used so much by Light and getting her lifespan halved again to get the Death God Eyes back.

Yeah, but after watching what happens in this episode you can kind of guess what happens next. Especially when, as you've mentioned...

Spoiler for Preview, "Reticence":

L says "Farewell" in the preview.

Dang, why couldn't they create the Death Note: Kira Game with alternative paths. Would have been great to see the three as a team.

This a topic i believe we're bes if having in the 'Death Note - Spoilers & Speculation (for experienced Death Noters only!)' thread. I've already kick-started it of :3

& what? Someone gave this episode a 9....

[TigerII]

Heeee"ss Baaaaack.

[Maes Hughes]

Can't wait to watch the sub. The screenshots make the episode look awesome, in particular the one where Light is smirking with what look very much like...eye contacts.

I found it rather amusing how you rated every episode of the Yotsuba arc 10/10. Interesting taste.

Because i find the whole of Yotsuba arc that damn good. I'm not like a lot of people who can't stand a bit of change that i believe is needed at some point in the story. And its good chance --- Yotsuba are GAR! :3

If you truly enjoyed the Yotsuba arc as much as what came before it, fair enough. I wasn't sure if you just had some sort of love for the number 10.

I do like Higuchi's character, I couldn't imagine there being a better 3rd Kira. His character is just about the only enjoyment I got out of the whole arc.

No-no, the series before Yotsuba arc, and now are what i call God-like episodes --- nothing you're ever going to compete against. :3

[Pakxenon]

From this preview alone, I rate this a 10/10.

[Dagger]

Mmm.... so much epic and win.

They shouldn't have had a preview at all though IMO.
