† RazorDan Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Do you think Death Note is overrated? According to MAL, it is the most popular anime. Did you like it? Or was it boring? Leave your thoughts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I think it deserves the hype it has received. It's an excellent series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idl12 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I agree with Koby, it is in no way overrated, hell it's underrated, I enjoyed it all the way to the end which unfortunately didn't cater for us Light supporters but was still very good and almost made me shed a manly tear.

Nero D. Ace Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 dude, atm the highest rated anime is Fullmetal Alchemist : Brotherhood according to MAL.Death Note is at #16 but still it's quite an intriguing anime which is one of my all-time favorites. there are very few anime in which the roles of protagonist and antagonist are so blurry.

Max465 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'm going to go with Maybe a little.I'm a much bigger fan of the creators new series Bakuman which I feel is very underrated.I don't think Death Note is bad by any means, I just think it's overrated in comparison to Bakuman.

emil91 Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 For a second I was kind of confused by the question, since I have never read a post asking this question. The story and the way it make you think, it is enough to be considered an epic series, at least in my opinion.Side Note:Now I got my father to watch the Death Note movies and he loved them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawesman101 Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 one of the best animes i have ever watched.. the way light was the Protagonist and the anti-hero was a very good interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendaryGirlA Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Definitely overrated. It was the first anime I started with the intention of finishing it but it became so predictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† Anras Rune Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 i found death note overated... i got worked up about it thinking it was goin to be brilliant, and was let down by it... to tell the truth this has happened to me alot, mostly with the mainstream anime like bleach and its counterparts. but never as bad as the let down death note was in my opinion.

Shunsuke Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Not at all I loved Death Note its in the top 3 of the best anime series Ive ever seen, right behind Air Gear. But there are things I hated about it. Near, Mello, the whole point where Light doesn't have a Death Note. Pretty much after L dies the series died with him. But all together its a really great anime. I always tell my friend at work that hasn't seen Death Note to watch it up to the point where L dies then watch the Death Note speicals to piece together the plot without the mindless crap that takes place after L dies. Plus just watching those piece together how Near found out Light was Kira and it gives a more complete ending. Which I still wish Light won.

mistlin Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 I like that sort of anime, same sort of vein as code geass, and monster,makes you think a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirotora Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Death Note was okay, but I never really clicked with it until L came into the picture. Totally dropped it after around episode 25. And I watched the ending with malicious glee afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike00 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 I can't believe what I'am reading here. I didn't expect there would be so many people that did no like Death Note. I know people who do not whatch anime but saw it and loved it.Death Note was epic, almost legendary... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 I was never very interested in Death Note. I gave it a go but it was nothing exciting for me.So it is a bit overrated from where I stand on personal preferances.It's a beautifully done series though so it is no surprise to me why so many fans adore it.
