I personally prefer sub because so many of the performances in it are amazing, but this is one of those dubs that are really good as well so you probably can't go wrong with either.
I'm a 34-year-old Japanese woman, and I'm filled with nostalgia. Back in high school, Death Note manga was being serialized, and my classmates and I had fun sharing and reading it together while trying to solve the mysteries. Good times!😊
I'm a 32-year-old Venezuelan man. I remember watching the anime online, I wouldn't read the manga until years later. But sharing your story made me realize it would've been so awesome to be a Japanese teen in Japan during the serialization of the manga. I envy you in a good sense. It also made me feel nostalgic. I was in HS sophomore year (equivalent in my country) and the anime just grabbed me by the throat it was so amazing and epic. It's a top 5 even though the later half is noticeable weaker in comparison to the first half, after a certain main character gets killed. In the manga was noticeable but the anime magnified because they ommitted many dialogues and sequences to wrap it out quickly. But still this anime (and manga by both the amazing author and god tier illustrator) is peak anime and an achievement by MadHouse. Same with Hunter x Hunter 2011. That era felt simpler, maybe because we both were teens/kids, technology was not that complex, no social networks, not streaming on the street, a more mainstream culture that consumed the same shows at the same times, virtually. Sigh...
@@chappiescollectables nah, you have to think of the face of the person for them to die, it's literally in the death note rules that he reads in the beginning. only the person with the face you're thinking of and with the name spelled exactly like that would die, so the other people are fine, even if they're spelled the exact same way. you need both the name and the face :)
@@Kinta02 yea for me aot first episode hooked me i didn't want to watch death note bcoz i thought it will have low quality but man 1st episode was fast pacing rly hooked me
Fun fact: The director of DN directed the AoT episode where Grisha kills the Reiss family and has a mental breakdown after it... that's why the expressions on that episode were so dramatic, because this guy knows how to make a simple scene writing in a notebook look waaaaay too much epic, at the same time how to show the obscure feelings through the face of an anime character, rather be Light Yagami or Grisha Yeager
Deathnote is really an anime to watch in group. Thinking together of what would happen next, framing theories and most importantly the arguments between L and Light supporters haha. Really excited for this journey with y'all!
I dont think its that good to make theories since everything is explained shortly after a move lol attack on titan is the only anime that has the mistery the best
Thats what i did when i watch it for the first time with my sister. We even theoriezed that L would find the death note and maybe become the next Kira or something bruh. Even with our crackpot theories, it was such a fun experiance and I wished I could watch death note for the first time again.
I like that Cannon and Carter aren’t the only ones who haven’t seen Death Note. It’ll be great to see you guys’s reactions because this anime is so thrilling and full of plot twists. You will surely love Light as well as another character who will be introduced in the next episode …
@@CasualCat64 Just stick with your dub, who tf force you to like the sub? That you feel the need to announce the world that you absolutely hate sub and cant take any other's opinion?💀 man got no brain's left
Vinland saga>>>JJK interms of plot,story, writing, characters,Depth and complexity. JJK is a fun shonen show that has a great manga and probably one of the best new gen shonen. But Vinland saga is already Goated!!
Fun Facts without Spoilers : > Each episode cost $1,000,000 to make. > When Light wrote the name of the biker in the death note they show 10+ lines of names, That's just the guys name as he said his name out loud but Light didn't know which variation / spelling of the name to use and that's why he had a lot written down for his second kill. > Light is Japanese but is really intelligent and knows English, in class he is asked to read outloud in English for the class, The death note being written in English is as Ryuk said, its because it is the most popular/common language, thats why Light initially thought he was chosen / given it when it was just chance.
@@re3ug502 you might be right actually, I heard that fact from other UA-camrs and Google years ago and has always been what I thought was right. I just spent an hour trying to find sources stating the cost per episode but no site like MAL or IMDb state the cost. The articles I read state their source to a UA-cam video which is now unavailable so I am stuck for finding out any information for the actual cost :/
I remember watching Death Note with my brother as well back in 2007 so I'll definitely gonna follow you guys in this one. This show was a huge breath of fresh air 15 years ago and still holds up till this day. Also, same director as Attack on Titan!
That's what made it very special. It's so unique that I don't think there's an anime or a show like it. I know there could be similar shows like breaking bad or such, but it's still very different. My favorite show is AoT but even Aot has some cliches here and there. Death note tho is such a standalone masterpiece
Same. I watched it so many years back and it was the first anime I watched. Got instantly hooked and since then even after watching so many animes i really haven't seen anything like it. DN is something different.
This is actually the anime that got me into anime. This is what converted me to at least giving them a chance. As I’m writing this, I saw Vinland saga was second place. Also another great anime. Super excited for y’all. Y’all are choosing a lot of great series to watch.
Great reaction, as usual. By the way, 3 fun facts about this series: - Death Note (2006-2007) was the first series directed by Tetsuro Araki, also known for directing the seasons 1-3 of Attack on Titan (2013-2019). - In MyAnimeList (the IMDB of the anime/manga world), the two most popular anime series are Attack on Titan and Death Note. DN had the throne for more than a decade until AOT's Final Season Part 2 was fully released. However, the distance is close enough that DN could reclaim the throne occupied by AOT in the near future. - The original manga ended in May 2006, months before the anime premiered (October 2006), but just so you can see how popular the original work became, before the anime even started airing, two Japanese live-action movies had already been shot and aired. In fact, 4 Japanese live-action movies, 2 Japanese live-action TV series and a musical have been made so far (one of the TV series follows the previous movies, while the another is a complete remake). Nor should we forget that Netflix made an American live-action remake in 2017 (which, by the way, is complete garbage (the only good thing was that Willem Dafoe was the one who voiced Ryuk), but it seems that they made enough profit, because a few months ago Netflix announced that there would be a new American live-action TV series, produced by the Daffer brothers, known for being the creators of Stranger Things).
The Death Note soundtrack is hands down one of my favorite soundtracks in anime. It just helps elevate the anime so much more and it definitely brings some nostalgic vibes to the time I first watched it. You guys are going to love this series.
Dang, running 4 anime at once. That's seriously impressive work. Props to you guys for doing so much recording work. And my condolences to the editor(s) that eventually need to edit it all for UA-cam, lol. The content is only gonna pile up, hahaha.
The reason ya'll are like the best reaction channel is just the sheer amount of content... Like its insane how much you upload and we all appreciate it!!!
I'm really happy to see people reacting to Death Note because it's my favorite anime! I finished watching the first video bur I'm really looking forward to seeing your reactions to so many good moments of Death Note! I hope I won't cry when seeing characters die T_T
Death Note and Vinland Saga are some of my favorite anime of all time! Can’t wait to see your Vinland Saga reactions later on. I really enjoyed JJK season 1, but I am fully caught up on the manga and when season 2 airs, it will be insane. Can’t wait to see your reactions to these three anime!! Following y’all on your AOT journey was great and I’m glad to see y’all are branching out to watch other amazing anime.
this anime is the very first thing i show to my boyfriend to loooovvee anime!! And it actually work after this i show him angel densetsu. He totally love it!! *if u know u know
glad you guys are going with sub on this one, most of the people saying dub are just talking from nostalgia. trust me as someone who rewatched this show in both dub and sub, the sub is just better especially with the psychotic and intense scenes
I agree I prefer the dub due to nostalgia , but also because let's face it, the dub is amazing, and since amazing dubs are rare i think they're worth watching, especially for a first watch . I really wished they did dub for their first ever reaction to this show, just like we did for our first time . that's all , but their patrons chose this i guess so , sub it is .
I prefer the dub ver for reactors like them. bcs it's more easier to for them to understand. well death note is one of the most perfect dub in anime (esp the jokes in dub ver lmao)
I am Japanese and I thought the English voice acting for Death Note was quite excellent. The content of this anime is complicated and difficult to understand. Therefore, I recommend that you listen to it in English, your native language. I think it will help you to understand the reaction live.
Hard disagree. English dubs, even if the voice acting is perfect, often change the content and context of the dialogue. Plus, while reacting, it's very beneficial to have subtitles whether you speak the language or not, so you can quickly parse the words on screen and have some time to listen to your fellow reactors too. Watching in English would not enhance this experience.
@@kzbw Nah, while what you said is also true, but even subtitles cant guarantee you the exact content/context from the original. As I can understand JP to some extent but still watch with sub eventho the sub often annoyed me (I cant with the "empty" screen), the translation's just wont be 100% the same (bc of some localization words too ofc). I've watched the same eps of anime, but in 2 diff sources of subs? (Ugh excuse my Eng) like same sub language but diff person who translate it. And those 2 trans r like its not even from the same episode
The dub for death note was amazing, but I always felt the sub was still the way to go. After having watched the dub first, watching the sub was sooooo much better. At least as far as getting the more nuanced ideas across.
Hm,I think you should watch them with their original audio,i dont speak japanese but i always watch them with subs. The Death Note dub might be good but i think its missing the emotions the original voices give you
Damn, the new schedule sounds dope! You all picked some great shows, there are a good variety of options here so it'll be interesting to see how these different shows hit for you guys.
OMG i am so happy you started watching death note. i have no joke watched this anime 11 times. it is by far my most favorite anime of all times. im so glad your watching this
So happy with your reactions lol. People either love the first episode and keep getting more hooked as the show goes on, or hate it and don't watch the rest. There's no in between in death note.
I quite literally have no money to give but when i do I'd love to support on Patreon. I'm not really active on the discord anymore but you guys seem genuinely so cool and nice!
I’m surprised people are comparing AoT with DN, I think they’re entirely different shows. But I guess I kinda understand it in terms of the complexity of the story and the suspense and all that. Death Note is definitely a great anime, I know the style being older might not be what you’re used to, but you’ll get more into it as it goes on. One of my favorite scenes was the tennis game, you’ll see when you get there 😁 Oh and the super famous potato chip scene! 😂😂
Death Note is one of the shows that cemented my love for anime ❤ the mind game journey is great and i’m excited to watch y’all’s journey! Brig is so right when he said it’s right up Cárter’s alley!(in the jjk reaction i think)
Oh man, I'm SO glad you guys picked up Death Note. It's one of my all time favourites and I'm not at all surprised that Carter likes it as much as he does 🤭I'm so hyped for you all to fall down this rabbit hole.
This was my first anime and it's awesome you guys are going on the Death Note journey. It is not as action packed like AOT or other similar anime's, but it will psychologically challenge and stress you out. Think of it as a Sherlock Holmes type of anime set in a demon fantasy universe. I say Sherlock cause you will meet the Death Note version of him soon. Enjoy this deep rollercoaster ride! Also, does Ryuk sound like Kenny from AOT? I watched this before AOT and I just realize they may be the same person.
I’m so happy because I actually suggested that they watch this anime next. Not sure they saw it or not and no doubt I’m not the only one to suggest it but it makes me happy see them actually watch it
I didn't expect this one to be on your guys' list and gotta say I can't wait to watch you guys continue down the anime rabbit hole & embrace your inner weebs
omg fullmetal alchemist is such a good show. And it touches on a lot of topics you could discuss. ı would definitely recommend it, fmab and aot probably ties in the first place for me.
OMGG Y'ALL GETTING INTO DEATH NOTE!! THAT WAS LITERALLY THE BEST DECISION EVER. you guys doesnt ready to something crazy gonna happen😫😫 this show is perfect to react.
@@hannastony8820 true, but there are amazing stories that are being adapted rn like chainsaw man and Bezerk(which def wouldve been a goat if they adapted it right)
@@Random-qi3vv true Berserk is a FUCKING MASTERPIECE. Chainsaw man, I dont think so 😅 I only saw the anime so I dont know if it is better in the manga, but for what I saw there isnt much of masterpiece writing in the story, starting with the protagonist that his only goal is to have sex. Hopefully it gets better next seasons. But! Its only my opinion and the way I see those animes.
i know you guys already begun watching in sub but you should consider watching it in dub. the dub for death note is one of the few that are actually good and i really enjoyed it. you guys don't have to though if you prefer sub!
8:13 in case you didn't get it: it's not that he had already written a bunch of different people's names. In japanese, names that aren't foreign are meant to be written using a system called "kanji" which are the typical "drawings" that mean whole words such as 水, 可愛 or 歌. Many kanjis are homonymous, which means that although they are pronounced the same they don't share the way they are written. In this case, Light could only hear the name but didn't know how he should correctly write it, so he decided to write down every possible kanji combination that could work for that name while thinking about the person's face so one of them had to be the right one. As a funfact: Even japanese people struggle to learn and memorize many kanjis since there are so many and they are way too difficult. Light knowing and writing down so many is just a show off as an overly smart person.
"someone else might've used it for horrible things" I meeeeeean someone could argue that killing even criminals counts as a horrible thing. It'll be interesting to see each of your individual thoughts on the deathnote and Light as the videos go on lol
This show is directed by Tetsurō Araki. The same man who directed Season 1 to Season 3 part 2 of Attack On Titan! He is my favorite anime director. I love how he can make any mundane scene/line tense and epic.
Like this comment if we should watch Dub
tbh, it's one of the few animes where Dub just hits different imo.
@@bauklotze697 i agree
death note is the only anime id actually recommend watching in dub...personally, i think its better than the sub
Dub is better for this anime imo. The voice acting is well done, and less gets lost in translation to me.
I personally prefer sub because so many of the performances in it are amazing, but this is one of those dubs that are really good as well so you probably can't go wrong with either.

I prefer the dub ver for reactors like them. bcs it's more easier to for them to understand.
well death note is one of the most perfect dub in anime (esp the jokes in dub ver lmao)
YESSSS THE BOYS ARE BACK WITH THE EXACT SHOW ID WANT THEM TO WATCH NEXT
YOU BOYS ARE THE BEST
I am Japanese and I thought the English voice acting for Death Note was quite excellent.
The content of this anime is complicated and difficult to understand.
Therefore, I recommend that you listen to it in English, your native language.
I think it will help you to understand the reaction live.
Hard disagree. English dubs, even if the voice acting is perfect, often change the content and context of the dialogue.
Plus, while reacting, it's very beneficial to have subtitles whether you speak the language or not, so you can quickly parse the words on screen and have some time to listen to your fellow reactors too.
Watching in English would not enhance this experience.
@@kzbw Nah, while what you said is also true, but even subtitles cant guarantee you the exact content/context from the original. As I can understand JP to some extent but still watch with sub eventho the sub often annoyed me (I cant with the "empty" screen), the translation's just wont be 100% the same (bc of some localization words too ofc).
I've watched the same eps of anime, but in 2 diff sources of subs? (Ugh excuse my Eng) like same sub language but diff person who translate it. And those 2 trans r like its not even from the same episode
The dub for death note was amazing, but I always felt the sub was still the way to go. After having watched the dub first, watching the sub was sooooo much better. At least as far as getting the more nuanced ideas across.
I'm not Japanese or from an English-speaking country, I still think Japanese is better than English when the anime with subtitles.
Hm,I think you should watch them with their original audio,i dont speak japanese but i always watch them with subs. The Death Note dub might be good but i think its missing the emotions the original voices give you
congrats on 100k fellas
Brig is him. Bro is cultured
Thank you LeMickey🤣🤣. I’m assuming you’re rooting for GSW tonight?
Damn, the new schedule sounds dope! You all picked some great shows, there are a good variety of options here so it'll be interesting to see how these different shows hit for you guys.
Bro death is pure masterpiece and most expensive per episode budget literally 1 million dollar for 20 min 🔥🔥
OMG i am so happy you started watching death note. i have no joke watched this anime 11 times. it is by far my most favorite anime of all times. im so glad your watching this
Bro Carter's predictions are GOD tier lmao
I see what you did there 😉
So happy with your reactions lol. People either love the first episode and keep getting more hooked as the show goes on, or hate it and don't watch the rest. There's no in between in death note.
YAY I"M SOOOO HAPPY YOU GUYS ARE GETTING INTO DEATH NOTE, I HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOY IT!!!!
I quite literally have no money to give but when i do I'd love to support on Patreon. I'm not really active on the discord anymore but you guys seem genuinely so cool and nice!
I’m surprised people are comparing AoT with DN, I think they’re entirely different shows. But I guess I kinda understand it in terms of the complexity of the story and the suspense and all that. Death Note is definitely a great anime, I know the style being older might not be what you’re used to, but you’ll get more into it as it goes on. One of my favorite scenes was the tennis game, you’ll see when you get there 😁 Oh and the super famous potato chip scene! 😂😂
The complexity and suspense but they are also the two animes that non-anime watchers generally enjoy as well
YESSS YESSS I LOVE THESE GUYS SO MUCH
🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Death Note is one of the shows that cemented my love for anime ❤ the mind game journey is great and i’m excited to watch y’all’s journey! Brig is so right when he said it’s right up Cárter’s alley!(in the jjk reaction i think)
Oh man, I'm SO glad you guys picked up Death Note. It's one of my all time favourites and I'm not at all surprised that Carter likes it as much as he does 🤭I'm so hyped for you all to fall down this rabbit hole.
Words cannot comprehend how excited I am for them to go on this journey.
LFG
omg the day that i been waiting for is finally here this i exactly what i wanted yall to watch after aot letsgoooo, im signing up for the ride
4:15 Ryuk is one of my favorite character designs of all time
Reactions to two of my favorite anime/manga series alternating throughout the week? OMG...looking forward to it.
Light wrote that guys name multiple times because in japanese there are multiple ways you could write someones name using kanji
YOOOOO how i miss you guys started watching this
You HAVE to do the scene comparisons from sub and dub for this show once you finish it like you did for AOT!
Death Note has one of the best dubs!
omgggggg i was really looking forward to this!!!, tysm!!
This was my first anime and it's awesome you guys are going on the Death Note journey. It is not as action packed like AOT or other similar anime's, but it will psychologically challenge and stress you out. Think of it as a Sherlock Holmes type of anime set in a demon fantasy universe. I say Sherlock cause you will meet the Death Note version of him soon. Enjoy this deep rollercoaster ride!
Also, does Ryuk sound like Kenny from AOT? I watched this before AOT and I just realize they may be the same person.
You don't know how happy I was seeing this notification LMAOO death note is so good
Now imagine Light writing Bear turtle's name in the death note. 💀
I’m so happy because I actually suggested that they watch this anime next. Not sure they saw it or not and no doubt I’m not the only one to suggest it but it makes me happy see them actually watch it
I didn't expect this one to be on your guys' list and gotta say I can't wait to watch you guys continue down the anime rabbit hole & embrace your inner weebs
Congrats on 100K been watching since the beginning. Super excited for jujutsu kaisen!!!
omg fullmetal alchemist is such a good show. And it touches on a lot of topics you could discuss. ı would definitely recommend it, fmab and aot probably ties in the first place for me.
OMGG Y'ALL GETTING INTO DEATH NOTE!! THAT WAS LITERALLY THE BEST DECISION EVER.
you guys doesnt ready to something crazy gonna happen😫😫 this show is perfect to react.
I like how the best "new to anime" reaction channels on youtube always start with AOT and the second is always death note 😂
Has sense cause are the two best animes of all time
@@hannastony8820 nah, just large fan base on youtube
@@hannastony8820 true, but there are amazing stories that are being adapted rn like chainsaw man and Bezerk(which def wouldve been a goat if they adapted it right)
@@Random-qi3vv berserk is being adapted??
@@Random-qi3vv true Berserk is a FUCKING MASTERPIECE. Chainsaw man, I dont think so 😅 I only saw the anime so I dont know if it is better in the manga, but for what I saw there isnt much of masterpiece writing in the story, starting with the protagonist that his only goal is to have sex. Hopefully it gets better next seasons. But! Its only my opinion and the way I see those animes.
"Something happened that I didn't love and I never finished it" Same.... xd
i know you guys already begun watching in sub but you should consider watching it in dub. the dub for death note is one of the few that are actually good and i really enjoyed it. you guys don't have to though if you prefer sub!
8:13 in case you didn't get it:
it's not that he had already written a bunch of different people's names. In japanese, names that aren't foreign are meant to be written using a system called "kanji" which are the typical "drawings" that mean whole words such as 水, 可愛 or 歌. Many kanjis are homonymous, which means that although they are pronounced the same they don't share the way they are written. In this case, Light could only hear the name but didn't know how he should correctly write it, so he decided to write down every possible kanji combination that could work for that name while thinking about the person's face so one of them had to be the right one.
As a funfact: Even japanese people struggle to learn and memorize many kanjis since there are so many and they are way too difficult. Light knowing and writing down so many is just a show off as an overly smart person.
Yesss! I'm so glad you guys started Deathnote. Excited to go on this journey with you guys 😅
After AOT done I was so waiting for this Reaction video , thank you Studio geek
Omg y'all this is happening omg this is happening THEY R WATCHINGGG DEATH NOTE LETSGOOOO
YESS
Yaaaass! So amped to watch this with you guys!
This anime has one of the best dubs out there. Highly recommend u guys check it out too
Sehr geil, dass ihr euch das anschaut. 😎
Psycho Pass könnte euch auch gefallen.
8:14
Many kanji characters have the same reading, so I wrote them in various combinations.
As a Japanese, I want you to see it in Japanese.😌
"someone else might've used it for horrible things" I meeeeeean someone could argue that killing even criminals counts as a horrible thing. It'll be interesting to see each of your individual thoughts on the deathnote and Light as the videos go on lol
Death note English dub is one of the best English dubs
it would make me really happy if you guys reviewed Psycho-Pass, its such an amazing anime.
this is the best channel on the planet you know exactly what people want its like if someone who watches reactions made a reaction channel
This show is directed by Tetsurō Araki. The same man who directed Season 1 to Season 3 part 2 of Attack On Titan!
He is my favorite anime director. I love how he can make any mundane scene/line tense and epic.
this is what content i waiting for so long. And watch it from the most enjoyable channel. THANKYOU VERY MUCH
If parasyte isn't in your list. U should probably add it. It has the serious tone like AOT and Death Note. U guys will surely like it.
The movie?
@@cannonandrus5554 No, The anime.
Parasyte - The Maxim.
8:39
- so that demon dropped it

This is one of the show where I honestly prefer the dubbed version than the original. But glad u guys are reacting to this!
Berserk and Monster are definitely the others than are way better in English
I'm french and even the french dubbed version is really good
Im happy you are watching so many animes rn, its definetly my favorite genre for shows
OOOOH YESS. This is the second of the three big anime pillars. You cant understand how good is this.
