I see.
But I don't think your interpration is neccesarily correct either. If they're potraying the symbiance of blue vs red in the traditional Japanese concept of kabukis, it really feels disjointed with the rest of the OP which utilized the more substancial bright imagery + shady/blurry tones and the western artistic sense (( Creation of Adam...Petia )) to reflect the unexistance of black and white in the moral sense of issues, but rather just the power which dictates what is right and wrong. Besides, unlike the clear colours of black vs white, red vs blue can very well be interpreted in other subcultures as well, such as the use of blue and red traditionally in war simulations.

Now the Pieta scene ... that's really interesting. I had assumed that the person lying horizontally might be Light in place of Christ, if it were meant to reflect his megalomania, even though it seemed like the one facing the screen looked more like him. However, the third episode OP suddenly shows the seated person's face clearly, and it seems that it is Light in Mary's position after all. And the person lying across his arms ...

Likewise, main characters in anime are often associated with red/fire because their passion is the most important characteristic. You can lump them all together, but in general, you can say that main characters (not necessarily all, but many enough) are often those that are striving to change the status quo. Their passion is why they're main characters in the first place, I guess, since you wouldn't have a story if things simply continued the way they always did before they burst on to the scene. And as a follow-up to that, at the risk of taking symbolism just a bit too far, the new red tinge to the scene with the policemen ... Spoiler for Episode 3:

Yes, Blue and Red can mean only one thing....
1P and 2P of course. With the exception of certain plumber brothers. It means they have the same attributes, same power-ups, and same speed... just a slightly diffrent sprite and of course, the color.

Oh, so it wasn't just me who thought the OP sequence for episode 3 suddenly looked a little brighter/clearer? ^^;;
Well, too bad that the animation quality for this episode dropped slightly. There wasn't much in terms of actions, either... I'd personally like to see Light kill off the obligatory top 10 criminals of week at the beginning of each episode just to start things off. XD

There was something amissly disjointed about how I phrased my words on the religious imagery context. My stagnant point was more of a reference to the idea that blue vs red in the kabuki context that solely refers to Light vs L in the OP feels out of place with the traditional generic use of black/white/gray in undertoned shades that don't reflect the standard idealogism of simple black vs white in reference to who is good and who is evil in the story context of Death Note. The religious imagery plays a different story context than the good and evil part, though I still found the Creation of Adam's DN potrayal with Light and Ryuk somewhat funny and ironic in a different context. LOL at aohige-dono's Double Dragon referencing. Honestly, the first thing that came into my mind the second the colour of blue and red appeared was the sentai references. I think we need a thread solely of OP symbolism/references.

Episode 03 went as smoothly as the first two, not going to fast with the story teling which is a good sign when thinking about just how long the anime plans to last. Ryuk talk about the Shinigami eyes was also one of my fav' scenes from the manga.. and i'm glad yet again the anime was able to show even more of the stories true dark nature with it. Light's evil smile was seriously one for the record books. :3 As for next episode.. Spoiler:

I've yet to watch the raw, but based on what I saw from dxgarten, it more or less covers chapter 4 to chapter 6. But one thing was shifted in terms of the course of events when going from the manga to the anime.
The course of events went like: - L gets Light to kill Lind L. Tailor - Those in the Shinigami realm wonder where Ryuk is and what he's up to - Sayu asks for help with homework - Light's father comes home for dinner - Light makes his special drawer After that the manga syncs up with the rest of episode 3. I omitted certain things because they were minor points (like Sayu finding a "dirty" magazine in Light's room, which he had for the articles on L vs Kira). The only major change is that Light made his hidden drawer compartment thing earlier in the anime compared to the manga. Last edited by Dark`; 2006-10-18 at 14:02.

Sorry, my wording was off. I meant that it covered up to the start of chapter 6...which in other words means the end of chapter 5. That's what I meant to say, but you're right, my choice of words was a bit misleading.

Hmm,the change in animation is obvious in episode 3.Light looked a bit less mature and serious,wich is not good.
I did however like the scene where they contrasted Light's every school life with prisoners dying,as if to re-affirm how Light has no guilt or shame about killing other human beings. |

Does anyone else think that Light's "get police after L" scheme is kind of lame..
And yes L is more evil then Light.. L "sacrifices" people.. Light just kills them.. BTW Does anyone have any idea why Light's eye is gray in the opening.. isn't that suppose to mean zomby or brain-dead. (in some cases maybe blind)
