Get ready for Death Note!
Seeing how no one’s commented on my last post yet, figured I’d move right along to other topics in the meantime, such as the brand-new Death Note anime that will be premiering today in Japan. The anime is pretty highly anticipated because the manga has been a top seller nearly since its incarnation in 2004 (12 tankubons are available in Japan, and 8 in North America to date), and boasts some recognized names in voice acting, with Yamaguchi Kappei playing L and Miyano Mamoru as Light. The anime is being produced by Madhouse and broadcast on NTV.
I won’t say too much since this is a title I’ll likely review over the next few weeks, but I figured a quick blurb about it would tip off or remind anyone wanting to catch the premiere. As of yet, no English adaptation is planned, but since the manga is available in North America, I wouldn’t count one out just yet.
