Ew, he said "Exactly as planned". Zetsubou shita D:
... I also noticed that during the regain-memory sequence, Light hears L say "I am L."

L said that when he met the task force. LIGHT WASN'T IN THE ROOM. xD

ahhh i am just so curious and worried about what near's, Matt's, and Mello's voices are going to sound...

not that matt has much to say anyways.... although i really dont care; just keep on standing there looking pretty matty

anways... i really liked L's, Rem's, Matsuda's, and Ryuk's voice actors... although Rem's had me slightly confused on the topic of gender

Light's voice actor is... okay but it will really be put to the test in episode 37.... i mean Mamoru Miyano was absolutely amazing in my opinion o.O .....when it came to that final emotional climax for Light's character; i thought he captured it perfectly.....

yeah, for some reason i can see the dub actor for hitsugaya doing the voice for near....

Unlikely though. DN is dubbed by Ocean Studios in Canada. Bleach's dub is in LA.

Light's voice ended up being pretty good. Mature at times, young, and can crack and still sound right when he's having one of his insane moments. he sounds a little too sensitive though.

L's voice, it wasn't bad, wasn't good. I didnt really care for it, but it didn't bother me deeply.

Misa.. although she's supposed to be girly and cute, she's still a grown woman. She sounds like a hyper active 5 year old sometimes

I actually really like the English voice actors.
I went to see the Death Note movie when it was in American theaters, and I was pleasantly surprised when I found out it was being dubbed by the same English VA's as the anime. <3

The only voice I don't like so far is Mello's. It fits him... sort of. But he still sounds too young and obnoxious.


I have to admit, as well, that Ocean Studios seems to do the best dubs ever. I mean, I always thought Inuyasha was an amazing dub, and now Death Note is good, too. So yeah. Go Ocean Studios!

Kirby Morrow seems to fit the bill as Teru Mikami, but I wondered about deleting people. Makes me wonder if Light screwed up in his selection and he gets an old flame back because Misa isn't too bright.

I feel L's voice is the worst...It's so deep! Not like Arnold Swartinegger deep, just deep....It's just weird....and I hate it...

Overall, I'd give the dub a 5/10

I personally dissagree with your comment on L's voice. I think the english voice fits the charachter a bit better the japanese voice sounds a bit too soft to me...however i do agree that light's english voice other than his insane laugh doesn't quite cut it.

I really do not like most of the voice actors. But, for most people, it is because they have gotten used to the Japanese voices, and want to hear the same voices in the English version. Though, I do have some criticism. Mello and Raito should not sound alike. Never. Also, Raito seems to be way to energetic. He needs to be calm, and his voice should lower a partial octave when he is thinking, or as some people say, 'in Kira Mode.'

Eru-senpai should have a higher-pitched voice as well. The voice actors are good, but he just has the wrong voice. I really think that the voice actors deserve credit for trying, and a few of the characters were chosen well, like Matsuda and Soichiro, yet the voices do need to sound more like the Japanese voice actors that brought these characters to life for us.

I was never one of those anti-dub people, but I do appreciate a decent dub when I hear one. L's voice actor has a huge history of acting/singing/voicing so he's a notch above most of the voice actors.
And I think Brad Swaile was perfect for Light, if you consider that a majority of his characters are psychotic in some way, so he does a very good psychotic character. And yes, psychotic laughter I'm sure is supposed to sound awkward and strange. Remember Quatre from Gundam Wing? Nutjoobbbbbb... >_>;

**Edit: I forgot to rant about how INCREDIBLE Matsuda's voice actor is! I didn't notice until the "Matsuda" episode. But holy shite, is he amazing. I hope I'm not the only one who thinks so.
