Death Note - Vol. 3

Buy This Item Death Note - Vol. 3 by VIZ VIDEO  Available from Amazon  $18.99  on 10-9-2008     As the macabre fantasy <I>Death Note</I> continues, the battle of wits between Light Yagami (the serial killer Kira) and investigator L escalates. The two teenagers meet when they take the entrance exam for a prestigious university. Although he's as brilliant as he is arrogant, Light finds himself hard-pressed to keep up with L in their deadly game of cat and mouse. Director Tetsuro Araki plays up the physical differences between the lead characters: Light is cool, handsome, and well-groomed; twitchy, slovenly L seems to think with his bare feet as well as his redoubtable brain. The appearance of a copycat killer who poses as Kira shocks both Light and L. A model named Misa has acquired her own notebook and attendant <I>Shinigami</I> (god of death). It will be interesting to see where this subplot goes, but it feels like unnecessary distraction that takes viewer away from central duel. (Rated Teen+ Older Teen, suitable for ages 15 and older: grotesque imagery, violence) <I>--Charles Solomon</I> Reader Reviews Several people who have already seen the entire series says it's crap. I only seen very few episodes after this one and it doesn't seem like crap to me. It still keeps everything good about it. I won't add any spoilers in this simply because the spoilers are very big and important to the storyline. This one picks up with the battle of wits between Light and L. The confrontation only gets better and the suspense picks up alot. There are several twist in this that only elevates the series. It never got slow for an instant and it will only keep you wanting more. Every episode was excellent from start to finish. I know it's not impossible for this to collapse by the end. But I really hope it does end strong. I made it this far and I will continue until I see the rest. This volume contains eps. 9-12.
