DeathNote pic as promised

Yay i finally found my error in uploading my pictures so here are my pictures on my collection of deathnote. They are in spuer mint condition (i hope they still are, as comics tend to turn yellow and stuff from just staying in the cupboard and pretending to be neat and nice). Looking back now i was quite sad when the series ended so early. But i still luv this collection best. Here they are, the whole set of Deathnote:



This series appealed to me as i can relate very well to the characters portrayed in it. They are all very real, and they do what they believed is right, till the very end of their lives. Looking at the movie poster these few days, I am once again pissed with the fact that the bad guy is actually quite cute (y? WHY?!?!?), bleah.....but it is as portrayed, the bad guy, Light Yagami (夜神月), is a good looking guy with everything he could have....money and intellect and the looks to charm gers, yet his character is flawed....he believed that the world can be perfect....free from all evils, under his careful supervision (diao....power corrupts...esp with his super inflated ego), cos humans are too stoopid to govern themselves...being a perfectionist, that was his initial aim....create the perfect world (haha then i would be out of a job liao as got no need to defend country)...but he fell deeper and deeper into the abyss, and ended up doing all the evil stuff he wanted to eradicate to cover up....sigh.....never be too intelligent like i always sey.... met a few people like that....under the impression that they r always rite....and never really takes people's comments/feedback seriously, unless they oredi have reason to be impressed by the person.....i myself am like that at times.....haha no one is perfect ba.... but like i sed the characters reflect each and everyone of us

In the picture u can see the other lead in the movie, Yagami's nemesis, 'L', a cool 1 letter name for a weird looking guy who sucks thumb and have very deep eyebags.....not the ultimate Dean's list/nobel prize winner u would expect......

L is portrayed as an inward looking guy who can see the crux of matters, sensitive to minute details, and the psychology of criminals or psychos (which means he is a bit mad and bad too to understand them haha) ......he plays with sugar cubes and Lego everytime and toy cars and train (to show his nonchalancy la - jokingla....) when thinking, showing his clear intellectual powers (think i read somewhere that all very smart/crazy ppl do that a lot) ..... appearances wise, well all i can sey is he looks like he haven't slept a single time since he was born......

....and he probably has a hunchback cos he squats all the time....even on his seat (kind alike a frog with deep eyebags) anyways.....he is a sort of freelance detective, who works at capturing all the tough criminals to crack......his belief is that 祁拉 (the nickname the evil guy use to scare ppl) is evil and no matter what he sey to explain himself, he is still evil...the baddie guy...the ultimate pest....and so on haha....the irony of L's situation is that being an upholder of justice, he believed in a balance between good and evil....no one shld play god and try to eliminate an element...that in itself is evil incarnate....a world created from fear canot last, so Yagami can never be the tuyre winner.

These 2 people are really unique....and allows me to draw the inference that there will be a Deathnote II movie coming up....unless of course the tix for 1 did not sell at all la.....cos they are not portrayed in the movie..... The guy is my personal favourite...... All i should sey is the guy is N (Near) and the ger is M (Mello)..... if i sey anymore stoopid zj would sey i spoiler again cos being the slow guy we have come to know and luv, he probably havent reached this part of his comic.....(even though he has the whole series......waste money buy then dun read and lend frens and chio bus? lol) Let's just sey that u can guess their roles by looking at their names....

If a Deathnote II movies come out i would really like to see who will act as these 2......(hope i can really see it)

Last but not least is the cover which is my personal favourite.....the last book..... :

Notice how L, M and N stand together, with Yagami at the top, looking so almighty....very nice portrait of all their characters if u look close enuff......squatting L etc... the white background is also very nice....and might signify..... :)

DeathNote Fans Rejoice

Haven't had a single chance to sit right down and write a decent post after i decided to start this blog. haha, been busy with other stuff, work, and getting enough workout haha.

Well, recently on my MRT trips to work, i saw a poster which captured my interest..... haha it was actually a poster on 1 of my favourite mangas...... DeathNote, until i took a look closer.... OMG the characters depicted in the pictures are real people, and not just hand-drawn portraits like those in the comics... this meant that there was a movie on it upcoming


Scanning the bottom of the poster i realised that the show is coming mid this month...
Oct 19th
bwahaha, wouldn't miss this for anything...

Looking back up at the 2 main leads, i do think they look very cute....(kinda makes me wanna steal the posters hiakhiak) L looks just like in the comics, having an aura of mystery and deep eyebags... and he bites his thumb, very good inpersonation, and Light Yagami looks really cool and handsome, in the japanese sort of way. =P [It's a japanese show in japanese for those who were wondering....uber then, in english ah? duh....]

This past weekend, the thriller has even gone onto the funny TVs you watch when waiting for the MRT to come, haha a good deviation from those in certain lines which shows 1) how not to run for the train with your wife and son when the train doors are beeping and flashing those supposedly scary orange lights above the doors,2) how to evacuate when the train breaks down (cos no one is driving the train, Ooopss...then ppl will know what line i tok...)

anyway, saw one of these thrillers as well as some of the ones i found in YouTube....and found out the show is quite well done and definitely would be worth my $9.50, if i had to catch it on a weekend. haha too bad Misa Amane is not as chio as i thot she might have been..

Looking through my DeathNote collection, i sort of feel some emptiness knowing that the series has ended.... The covers are all so nice and pretty : haha but current i cannot post pics dun noe why will try it soon again...
