Trailer form Viz, with Light's Voice and Ls voice through the filter I'm not sure if i like Light's but well see what becomes of it, happy watcin I was speaking idiomatically. |
Bleh, Light's voice was terrible. It was so generic. I guess I'd have to hear it in the context of the show to truly form an opinion on it, though.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I can't say I'm a fan of his voice either, but I'd have to at least see an episode or two in order to be sure. I'm used to hearing the Japanese voice so much that the English voice may not actually be bad, just different. It's very rare for a Japanese and English voice to sound alike, but I'll try and stay neutral for now.
On a side note, I just noticed how the three have names in alphabetical order: L M N L Mello Near If we add Kira... K L M N Kira L(ight) Mello Near So if another genius were to be introduced, should I assume it would be "O"? FELIPE NO SSBB: 0602-5947-4393 ("SX") PM me if you add. |
The english dub for Yagami is indeed atrocious but in the end, you can't always rely on the old voice actors. They get tired as well. I was thinking more of of the voice actor who played Heero Yuy to get the job done. Will be expecting alot of work from David Lucas ;p. Viz has been workin his ass off playing 10 billion characters in naruto.
I believe theories died out after the manga ended. I was thinking more of L standing for L's real name yet his first name was never revealed. And as for what I said about the 2nd arc ended sooner than we thought, Madhouse doesn't give a shit after all. I think there's a lot of info missing there. 7 episodes left. Will there even be an episode where they show Mikami's past? What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Now that I think about it, Mikami's past was just one chapter, correct? So I suppose the first half of an episode or a few flashbacks are all we should expect, I don't really think they'll extend one chapter into an entire episode, but hopefully what they do will be satisfying. Episode 31 should be out and subbed soon, and Mikami should be in it based on the preview. We should hear something about his past by episode 32, if not 31.

Yeh I'm not a fan of Yagami's voice, sounds a bit like Aladdin or some other disney character not really the voice I'd pick for someone like Light

Reason: Episode 32
|
I just saw Episode 32 as well. Matt looks a lot different than I expected. Then again, I barely remember him from the manga. Still, he looks a lot darker. Perhaps his color is black? Well, he's not an important enough character to have a color. If you (the reader) do not understand what I mean, each main character has a color:
Light/Kira = Red L = Blue Near = White/Silver Mello = Yellow/Gold(?) Aizawa = Green Even though he's not a big character, I wonder if they will expand much on his character. Most people who didn't read the manga were probably confused by that, so I hope they expand a bit more. At the very least, a proper introduction. Anyway, Spoiler:
I'm really starting to dislike Animanda's subs. They purposely rearrange what the characters say just to what they think "sounds" better. The overuse of the word "fuck" did irk me a bit, but they're having Mikami say "Eradicate". I know what it translates to, but it sounds far too awkward. Kuro-Hana has much better subs, but Animanda has the quality. If only there were a way to combine the two. I was speaking idiomatically. SSBB: 0602-5947-4393 ("SX") PM me if you add.

It looks like Viz Media's giving the C and D to kuro-hana to dropped the project.
Spoiler:
I can really care less. As long as we got to see the first arc. The second one was more than just terrible than the original manga's counterpart O.o. As always, we'll still have some weird person to sub the last two episodes. So viz can go lick two nuts cause they aren't going to stop them >=p. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
WOW, after that last episode, I've completely lost my liking for Light. He has just gone overboard with how he has been getting his 'world' its disgusting personally. The way he just treat anybody no matter what as a tool. He is just a manipulative now, and i have lost all respect for him in this second arc.
FELIPE NO |
I wish the Japanese would do joint ventures instead of just licensing but they probably don't want to deal with hearing American Companies bitching about suing fan subbers. I tried to think, "it's just a trailer, the voices in the show should be better." But I bet those lines are taken from in-show. That, "I'm Justice" line sealed my decision for Light's voice and I DON'T LIKE IT. There's no passion or malice in the English VA's tone. Just like RockgamerXIII says, totally generic. I can just imagine the scene where Light screams crazily at the tv in the end of episode 2. It'll be flat and NON-intense. I thought legit Death Note DVD's were worth getting but not after hearing English Light's voice. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
It's too bad they can't sub anymore, but I know some people will upload the last two subbed episodes on youtube or veoh.
I also do hope Light's voice gets a change, I couldn't stand listening to that for over a minute. As for episode 35, It's the first episode of the new arc I found boring, despite all of what has happend. Probably because I already knew what was happening or I was in a low mood because of hearing the bad Death Note sub news, or both. Either way, I'm curious as to how they will end it. Sometimes I wish I never read the manga. How ya doing, buddy? SSBB: 0602-5947-4393 ("SX") PM me if you add. |
As one of the only anime series I've dedicated so much time and fanboyism to, I really hope that a random subber can finish this project for us.
Links PLOX, as soon as they become available. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Well, at least Animanda will probably stick with it. I hear they're based in Europe (probably the UK) and the anime doesn't look like it's licensed over there yet.
Anyway, lost interest in the series after a certain detective bought the farm. I saw upto episode 27 and dropped the series. Still in the process of reading the manga anyway, just waiting for volume 12 to be released... This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Reason: spelling error!

But I do hope someone picks it up. There should be less than 5 episodes left. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
One things for sure though, I'm not buying the US DVDs because : 1. Possibility of Flat,Non-Intence generic voice acting(from newbies maybe) like RG and Jouhou pointed out. 2. Madhouses' poor motivation in the 2nd arc. (Are they really to blame? ) 3. After watching 2 failure episodes (34 and 35) . This shows that no one really gave a shit about the second arc. Not enough Light Yagami dialogue, Misa's annoying personality and Less Appearances of Matt and Mello. This is where the dub comes in. Will they show/share the same feeling? Or get better at it at the last minute ;p. All of that can change unless I get a list of who's voice acting who in it. Nothing else really matters. I was speaking idiomatically. |
For those of you who care, you can grab Animanda releases 1-31 here in one nice torrent package. I've never watched a release by them (after youtubing episodes by random subbers until epside 20, I stuck with Kuro Hana), but everyone says they released the best subs of Death Note.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Wow, episode 36 sure does end on a cliffhanger.
FELIPE NO |
This pretty much means episode 37 will cram the last few chapters with loads of dialogue for the first 11 mins along with the turning point. Yagami's seiyuu did a great job acting crazy in the scene where he has that crazy look on his face.
I can't wait to see what I wanted to after reading the manga. take a hint! EDIT: I almost forgot. For those who want the subbed version. Ruberia FS released it . Quality is alright so go download! What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I'll agree with the majority here that yes, the voice acting is horrible and his voice is annoying compared to what we're all used to. But it isn't to say it's not fit for the act... if the voice matured along with the series and throughout the ending arcs (episodes 27~end) when Light's supposively 23-24 in age, then I probably wouldn't have a problem. For a 16, 17 year old, it seems appropriate for what it is now (the Light voice in the trailer). I was speaking idiomatically. |
