Almost have their fan base is cringe* ftfy

Brian Estepa

the irony in this comment. the bias is real. original va is objectively better, always fullstop. you wouldn't watch invincible or castlevania in japanese.

Brian Estepa

i believe sub fits more for the characters more than the dub. the dub doesnt have near as much emotion compared to the sub as well as the voice acting.

Brayden

Also the mentality of Kira that L was describing would fit a younger person much more than an older person especially in Japan.

Macy

A lot of people in Japan work 10-12 hour days, even more than that sometimes, or have two jobs. Work culture in Japan is very toxic so a very big portion of people are working the whole day, and it’s becoming common to see people sleeping at work and works to have separate employee living spaces at the office. Most middle age- older workers are so overworked that there’s no way they would be able to have enough time or energy to actually be Kira. So the likelihood that it’s a younger person, say high school to college, which have more free time and energy, as well as the fact that most students live with their parents limiting the need to work and financial burden and stress isn’t an outrageous conclusion to come too. The hours Kira are active are outside of school hours, not work hours, in Japan. So a keen observation on L’s part which the police agreed with bc it’s makes more sense from a Japanese persons perspective.

Dub hits different with Death Note ngl

Usagi

In 99% of anime’s I would say Sub is better, but with Death note the DUB is so much better. Should consider giving it a try

Itachi Uchiha

working hours in japan are like all day, its not like a 9-5 job like in NA

Jennifer Rivera

Guys in the comments instead off telling them they are wrong for not watching it in dub (I also preferred dub) due to a poll that the community made the final decision on how about asking nicely for them to maybe do a sub vs dub when they finish the show like aot, it's really not the end of the world i promise :))

pikaiichuu

Fair enough on the unemployed point, their schedule may not be consistent in keeping with the timings of the deaths. What I meant was that there may be several groups of individuals whose occupations would match with the timings of death other than students (maybe that is the schedule of a housewife, or a part-time worker, etc.). I am sure L would have thought of these probabilistically, it perhaps wasn't conveyed well in the anime. He only stated the possibility of the individual being a student (can be a college student as well, perhaps), and his immediate zeroing in on this specific group was what made me think perhaps that was a bit too much on the nose (of course, Light then switches up his timings, which then solidifies the student theory). But anyway, I am sure that it was an educated guess!

Shiro

I wish I finished work at 4pm ☹️😂😂

Zena

Personally, as non English native speaker its more comfortable for me with the subs to get the "same experience" but I agree, a lot of dub version are really good for DN (S/O the French one)

Kaze

PLEASE we need dub for atleast THIS show

Agha

I’ve watched death note dubbed about 20 times and subbed at least 10. There’s no way that the Japanese voices are better than the English ones. I’m sorry but people voting sub are hardcore weebs that will only vote sub no matter what

GB3

We need this in dubbed mayyyn I cant lie lmao

Venny

Dub enjoyer here (only with DN, you’ll never catch me preferring the dub with any other anime) but I’ve watched DN like 14 times and have liked both sub and dub. That said, if you could please try episode 8 in dub I promise you the meme moment (which you’ve likely seen/heard already with no context as it’s iconic) is delivered so so so much better in the dub. The dub Ryuk, Light and L just have this sassy flavour that doesn’t come through in sub in my opinion.

Sia

Also in regards to L thinking Kira could be a student but not someone with a full-time job, in Japan (especially a decade or more ago) most full-time jobs like office workers (in Japan known as salarymen) worked extremely long hours and definitely would not have left work by 4pm. Even 5pm was considered leaving very early.

Hippopi

If there's one episode of this that you react to in dub, it HAS to be the final one.

Hippopi

I knew I heard Askeladd's VA!

A

Never thought Dub vs Sub would be so contentious 😅. Love both, so I don’t mind if you guys continue with the sub. I just wish for a Dub vs Sub video at the end. Personally, I prefer L and Ryuk’s English voices. I like Light’s English and Japanese voices equally. Look, I’m a Miyano Mamoru simp, but I think Bradley Swaile is just as impressive as Light. He can sound corny at times, but there are times when his performance is better than Mamoru’s. This is a hill I’m willing to die on.

rosa_gris

hehe I was thinking in other reason but that´s actually true!

Fátima Quintero

@shiro The point of reading into the timings of the killings was to determine any patterns, had light been an unemployed adult, the patterns would have been much more sporadic and would most likely not have alligned so well with a students schedule (strict on the weekdays, free on the weekends) of course Light could have just been smart and "spoofed" his indentity and pretended to have been a student from the beginning, but L was probably quite confident that this wasn't the case because he proved that Light was very careless until after the first confrontation. Had he been more paranoid and careful from the beginning, he wouldn't have fallen for that trick and even with all this, L still considered members of the police force suspects too, he didn't rule any adults out, he just made the conclusion that it was most likely a student and that he'd have to add the families of the police force into the suspect list too

kiiturii

I wouldn't call it a spoiler, it's just not very explicitly explained but Ryuk did say that if the shinigami translates the number into human units then they can know how long they will live, so the assumption to draw from this is that humans can't understand the number

kiiturii

Lol Carter in the Thumbnail praying that the dub vs sub war end

Riya

Oh yes! I don't think L was 100% sure... Just that it was a really logical thing to think because it was the most likely :)

Fátima Quintero

I never saw it as he decided Kira was for sure a student, just that it was a very real possibility that shouldn't be ignored. There was certainly evidence to back it up, but he wasn't 100% gung ho on 'only focus on students, ignore everyone else'. It was just another avenue to entertain (and it became even more likely when Light changes the timings of the deaths, as it makes it obvious Kira is trying to divert them away from the student hypothesis). L also deduced Kira had a childish mentality (when provoked by Lind L Taylor, he decided to kill him even though he didn't know he was a criminal, just because he got shit talked lol). Moreover, as for the reason Kira wouldn't be unemployed, I mean, unemployed people tend to have no strict schedule. The schedule they got from Kira's deaths were pretty regimented. That alone might not be enough proof, but coupled with everything above, the student hypothesis becomes more likely (and once again, it wasn't a definitive claim, just another possibility L didn't want to ignore since everyone assumes the youth are innocent in many cases).

ssj4rit

Almost half their fan base supported the dub so there'd be a need lol

Dio

Yeah I think L was more along the lines of 'Don't just dismiss that Kira might not be a student, it could be possible'. Not 100% 'he's definitely a student, only focus on students'. He was just entertaining every possible avenue, and the evidence certainly leaned that way. And then his theory became even more likely when Light decided to change up the timings, as it makes it more suspicious that Kira is trying to divert attention away from the student hypothesis.

ssj4rit

That's the only way the plot can move forward lol

Riya

There is no need to satisfy dub watchers

Starkfern

If he would be unemployed he would not have consistently those hours of activity so that makes no sense to me. It is a % based game to guess what is most likely until proven false, which L does.

Chrisiyyi

Working hours in Japan are not the same, they often work way longer days. Next to that they also looked at the holidays etc. Someone who works does not have consistent holidays as someone who is going to school. that together with the other things he noticed. it just makes it more likely be a student and someone who is young, then someone who older and working. He never said it was 100% sure a student, just that it is more likely a student (so % favour of it being one). Unless something else suggest otherwise you would also go for the highest chance so L is just going on the highest likely chance until his thought process is proven false.

Chrisiyyi

DN is not something that captured my attention either but the concept is interesting during that time. Probably because I have been an anime watcher for so long (dinosaur level) therefore a little bit picky with the genres and storyline. Still, I really like how Carter is open to the theories and flow of the story. Keep it up, guys. Although, I am really here mostly for your AOT and VS reactions. ☺️

Joie Dianzon

Nop, we are just pro sub

Chrisiyyi

I love this show what 😭

Cannon Andrus

That makes sense, but the conclusion here would be that Kira is at least not a full-time working adult. He very well could be unemployed! I’ve often found L’s conclusion that Kira is a student far-fetched, but given that he caught Kira in such a brilliant way in the previous episode kept up my interest and I was willing to let it slide.

Shiro

I think that’s where his immaturity as a teenager shows. He may be a genius, but he is a very immature individual.

Shiro

I watched DN before I watch AOT... So I didn't question a lot of the logic behind the story... Now, I think Cannon thinks more ahead than maybe a lot of us did in the first watch because he saw AOT first haha and is a normal thing because we want this show to live up to what has been promised... BUT I think that it is really logical concluded that Light is an student and not a adult worker because of the childish behavior due that direct confrontation... Also, Light demonstrated his level of maturity by wanting to kill L at the moment he told him that what he was doing was evil... besides, the working day in Japan in 2016 (to put a date, because in the anime I think it was 2008) was from 10 to 12 hours a day... that means that half of a working day would be about 6 hours... so it's likely that if you start working at 7:00 am your schedule ends at 5:00 pm, so the hours of work and the hours when the killings began do not coincide... The working culture in Japan was really abusive at that time (it still is) so have free time after 4:00 pm was a thing only a student could joy...

Fátima Quintero

AND GUYS read the information at the middle of the episode... Is really important ✨

Fátima Quintero

In any anime, the original sub is always better with a couple of exceptions and this is one. Personally, the voices aren't a big deal as long as I understand the juicy plot and the version that will give me the least amount of headache (like pausing) lol. In the end, it comes down to preference!

Riya

To answer to Cannon....about if Light can or cannot see his remaining time of life If he sees himself in a mirror the answer is...(if I remember well)... is explained later... I don't want to spoil XD

Fátima Quintero

You guys are so anti-dub it's funny 😂

Dio

Why do i feel like cannon wouldn’t like this show..🌝

Fatema alrowaiei

are we getting vs ep 14 today?

jason 𒉭

Fr he’s so smart and dumb at the same time lmao

will saldivia

Frrr

will saldivia

Funniest thing is Light could probably stay undetected if he had control over his ego. Man is on such a high tryna be god it’s unreal. He can’t accept anyone speaking out against Kira even if they’re not necessarily a criminal smh

ssj4rit

You put too much faith in anime fans

ssj4rit

they aint watching the dub bro, cope

luffy

Taxi Driver quotes that automatically pop into my head when watching Death Note: "This city's like an open sewer, full of filth and scum. Sometimes I can hardly take it. I think the President should just clean up this mess. He should flush it right down the fucking toilet" And "my life has taken another turn again. The days go on with regularity over and over, one day indistinguishable from the next. A long continuous chain. Then suddenly, there's a change" There's so many similarities between Light and Travis I literally cannot ignore them lol. In episode one Light talks about how bored he is with life, how every day is the same. He's too smart for his own good, and never faces any real challenges. A dangerous situation and mindset to find yourself in, I think

Mia Malvik

now just gotta hope people will manage to shut up about the dub lol, kinda ruines the discussion under every episode

kiiturii

Brig is so right and based!! #Brigist. Even tho the Dub didnt win, it's still a lot of ppl that would want to see it at least one episode of it!

Xeons

watch episode 9 in dub plz

YourGuy

Light isn't going to switch up his murder method because he wants people to know it's Kira who killed that person. That's how egotistical he is.

Thina

how does the language the show is in make the show any better lmfao

celery

i hope you guys try Dub at least once, even if it’s off screen 💀💀😭

Xeons

you can just type it in the search bar to filter their posts, for example if you're looking for dn you could search "original poll winner" and it'll show the reactions for dn

TY

I think you guys should at least try 1 episode in dub before you get too far. That way if you don't like it, the dub watchers will be satisfied you at least tried. If you wait too long there would be no point. In my opinion, some of us want you to try the dub because we think there is a chance you would enjoy the show even more and you can only watch a show the first time once.

Dio

can we update the patreon playlists? currently its just aot lou & mandalorian but its not up to date and i want to watch older posts but not scroll to find them

JIMBO

I'm so giddy rn, this was great! Can't wait for more☺️

Merielle

2:37 If Mckay have death note, brig is his first victim😂. Jk

BipolarKitten

This show is way too bingeable. I remember when I first watched this with friends and we blazed through 13 episodes in one night. I can't believe this is the last one this week 😓
