Scarred!Mello = <3333333333

You know what;s make me sad? Just 7 episodes to go untill.. ;_;

Great episode.

They keep cutting out stuff from the manga which makes this episode and the last couple looked like its being rushed, but in the end its still good.

woww i thought it would be boring after L
but the whole story is still epic , especially this ep

Something was missing, but good episode all round. Getting close to the parts I want to see animated, not too long to wait. Liked how Mello looked in this episode with that scar, makes him appear even more evil. The feeling of looking forward to next episodes has died for me, even if I did read the manga.

I like the "first half" of Death Note better, but this was a pretty good episode.

Was light being sarcastic to Near at the end, When Near was in a pinch?. That was like obviosuly saying i am Kira. I think , he acted too carelessly, by thinking that Near will not survive this.

Also Near playing with the toys in the beginign was hillarious :heh: . Same as Ryuku lieing.


Also a question about Mello's picture. Did Mello gave Near the picture?. I feel there was something in Manga about this that wasnt covered in the anime. Just a feeling of course :).

The ending's dialog/action was a pretty drastic change from the manga. Cool in it's own right, but very very different.

I'm hoping the anime has a different ending overall. :)

wow its finnaly getting tense again. towards the end why was light using his "real" voice to contact near?

yea obviously Light thinks that near isnt going to escape but when he does hes going to be one angry super genius O.o Light is so dam evil...what he is doing now is literally "blackmailing" the public into becoming loyal...even the president didnt give any resistance :/
not as good as last ep but still entertaining ^__^

Overall, I found it to be a very good episode worthy of the '9' I gave it. While I'm somewhat upset they changed it a bit from the manga, i'm also kinda happy; gives it a solitary feel :)

WHAT??? The When does that happen???

Anyways, this episode is pretty epic, almost first half epic, and certainly one of the best episodes of the second arc, which is why it is deserving of a 9/10. The new world certainly gives dystopic creeps (++), the philosophies, though repeated, are still put into good action (+), and Light's plan to get Near just blew my mind (++++++++++++++++++++).

Wow, and people say the second half sucks?

Looks like from here on out...Mello's role will only decrease and Near's role will increase greatly...I hope the anime shows more Mello than the manga did, mainly of the new scarred Mello.

That whole Mello meeting Near scene was definitely one of DN's better moments...and the music in the background was great too.

I hope they make a dual ending for this show, so that all fans(kira/mello&near) will be happy

Epic episode. I'm looking forward to episode 31 a lot.

This get's a 10 out of me. Near is so smart :p

So, about the name misspelling rule... Why didn't Light die when he wrote down the guy's name in like 10 different ways in Episode 1?
