C&C - Death Note - "Abduction" [4/26]

[Space Cadet]

Well, the second half of the Death Note story starts today and its just as polarizing for fans. Just like the second half of Blood+. Watch tomorrow at 1:00 AM Eastern.

[Ishtar]

Interesting start for the 2nd half of the series. After Light thinks he has nobody else in his way following the death of L, Near and Mello enter the playing field. Somebody outside the task force knowing of L's death really was not something Lighy was expecting. Damn, L and Watari are crafty, even in death. I like how Near and Mello don't get along, and Mello let's his emotions interfere too much with his work.

[XOMiss_Samantha]

Mello~~~~!!! <3
His voice is...alright. I'm still not too keen on it only because I don't believe it suits him as it should. Although, I think I'm going to slowly grow to love it. By the end of the episode I already began to enjoy the tone.
Near's voice is very nice. His relationship with Mello is much fun. Too bad gangsta gangsta supah fly blondie doesn't work well with friends. So impulsive.

lol Sayu hit puberty.

Mello and his leather. Gawd. So Pretty. So gay. Such a chocolate loving brat.... who's into bondage. His coat reminds me of Creed from Black Cat. I'd let him kidnap me anyday.
BGM= soooo great.

Misa. You're gross. I hope you aren't sleeping with Light.

[Rud]

Misa. You're gross. I hope you aren't sleeping with Light.

you realy think Light couldve managed to not sleep with her these past 4 years?, i think not. Sinse Light said he loved her and wanted to be with her, liying bastard, and all that **** i dont see how he could even get away with it withought leting Misa know hes liying to her.

besides, shes hot

lol Sayu hit puberty.

hehe, it looks like Matsuda hit puberty too, about time


chief: "my little girl will never marry a cop. EVER......."

WTF! the director spilled the beans on the task force, the hell kind of cop is he.

I know he's slept with her. He has to have. She makes a hoe out of herself every episode, expecially later on.
I just hope it's not a daily 'Oh Light come into bed with me I have no cloths on!' affair. She's trashy and Light's still just using her. Mello would make a better female than she already is. He even has the looks for it.

yeah, Mellow looks very girly, surprisingly the gear he wears makes him look more gay.

[Captain Highwind]

Near looks like a powered up L.

And Mellow needs to find some softer chocolate. He's going to break a tooth.

LOL at Rally Whatshisname.

[Raidon Makoto]

I, so far, thought this was way too fast paced... I don't know, I just don't think this episode has had the same magic as the last few episodes. Hate to say it, but I think I miss L.

[Neo Ultra Mike]

Unfourantley, Death Note Abridged not only spoiled Light and Kira being handcuffed together for me, but also the character of Mellow as well. I mean I didn't know he would be related to L, or have the rivarly with Near, but knowing that he had ties to the mafia and would be an important character (why else would he be in the intro) shouldn't of really been spoiled (that goes by people here too who last week sort of spoiled him). Still though besides the episode title itself and the idea we knew it'd be in the future, some very interesting stuff. Hearing about the Death of L, the two proteges split up to handle the Kira case in they're own ways. The younger unemotional puzzler Near forms his own American Government sponsdered task force working sepratley from "L" and the Japanese Task force and manages to deduce Kira killing the director and that the task force is housing the second L as some sort of giant cover up. Meanwhile Mellow in a much more forceful direct way of obtaining the notebook, kidnaps the director and then Sayu (finally along with Light's mom making a reappearence in the story. Only took what like 12 episodes or something) in order to make the trade. And while Papa Yagami's all emotional Light's trying to put the pieces together on who these new players as Ryuki's happy things are getting interesting again. And I'm also glad they've remained interesting and that this time skip didn't put a negative spin on the series (like when we started with Blood+'s time skip). There were also some more comedic moments (guess anything involving Misa) as well as some new fonts used reminding us that Death Note's still the same even though things have changed. Hopefully these changes will make things just as compelling as they were last time but at least we had a very nice start to the new battle with Light vs those who are trying to stop him.

[Rolling Cloud]

How can anyone think Mello's a girl? He's too....*ahem*....um...look at his shirt. XD

"you two should start living together!" Bad idea, Sayu. One missed anniversary and well, Kira could strike.

......

Misa looks ugly.....and, so does Mello's outfit. Ugh.

[Humble]

This was a pleasant surprise. The plot is moving at a brisk pace without a bogus memory gambit determining where the story is going.

I really enjoy this show when Light isn't in control of the situation.

[Nel]

Something about Mello's voice bugs me. Meh. Near's was perfect.

Funny that Near calls Light "Second L" when he himself looks like an L redesign (plus he's considered the actual successor to L).

[AyakaChan]

I've only seen about the first 16 episodes, and I have to say I like it. It's different, you know? It's one of the first animes in a while that have a decently original and sensicle plot.

For once it makes sense that everything is happening in Japan --- then again, the death note just happening to appear in JAPAN is rather weird. Maybe one day, something terrible wont happen in a specific area of japan. ;] we can hope.

[Jacob T. Paschal]

What's this about Mello looking like a girl? Not in the slightest!!

[Kitschensyngk]

Last time: It's Christmas every day for Light Yagami, and he's singing his favorite carol--"No L".

Oh jeez. I've been thinking all this time that Mello was a girl.

This show's already inaccurate. The President in the year 2012 is neither a black man, a woman nor a balding white guy.

Light's grown a little, and his head's as big as ever. ...and Misa's still a flake.

"A heartwarming scene from one of the most unfortunate families in the world."

You're not the only one who wants to be Kira, y'know.

Yeah yeah. America bad. We get it.

They don't call you Mello Yello.

Miss Amane, you're trying to seduce me.

Hostages don't grow on trees.

What is it about these mentally unstable detectives?

Did he say "M" or "N"? I couldn't tell.

[Bunai]

i hate Near...and i barely know the character
pfft
just seems like a waste product of L


Bunai - i wonder why Mello sounds so young...

Mello - "i'm fifteen"

Bunai - oh xD

[Hyper Shadow X]

I'm not really caring much for Near's voice plus I never borthered to watch the second half of the season only caught the last eppy.

[Bunai]

i was hoping a male would voice Near
but at least his English voice is fitting.
in Japanese he sounds like a 30 year old woman.

>_> i agree about the Japanese police comment*cough*


and where is Mello getting the money, to buy things?
especially chocolate?

He's more or less the mastermind of his gang, and with Skill like his used in the criminal world he could get whatever.

I can so see Mello robbing a 7-Eleven for Chocolate.
xD

Never mind a 7-Eleven, he'd hijack the entire Hershey Company.
