The last name.

Death Note the movie is actually the first part of a two part movie. Death Note however kept us sitting at the edge of the seat. Especially for the one who never got to read the manga. I couldn't read Kanji, hence looking at the the pictures alone in the manga couldn't help much telling me the story.


The second part of the movie, Death Note: Last name would be a fourway battle or so between 2 more Kiras besides Light Yagami, and L. What interest me for the second part was more screen for Misa. Many cosplay has been done using the character Misa. The lolita goth at prime time. But Erika Toda was amazing in the little screen part in Death Note.





With the stockings looking like a spiral up her long legs, I was petrified. And so was Shinigami too, fixated looking at her television show.


"Hajimemashite. Watashiwa Vlad-san. Anatawa kawaii desuka."


Truth be told, I don't know whether what I said above was even correct.


The core of the story, however, was how Light uses the death book to kill off most criminals. Criminals which were not prosecuted. Criminals not reported. Criminals who showed no reaction after being judged by law.


Like in the movie, there were two group that takes side to his crime. One supported him. They think criminals should be punished in that way since law could not apprehend them. The other one, thinks that even criminals even have human rights. No matter whether they rape 5 year old kid and go scot free. No matter they are big shot Yakuzas who will never be apprehended by the law.


Light dream of a crime-less world. Where everyone could walk down the street without the fear of crime getting at them. I believe that is everyone's dream also back here. We all know how crime rate has increased in these period of time. Days after days we watch the news and see people mugged, robbed, shot, killed, slashed, raped and bodies found everywhere. Some got caught, and some never gets caught.


Do you ever wish that the person doing the bad deeds, who were never got caught, to be punished in a different way since law could not get to them?


I believe we know the answers already. In a way, we are all Light Yagami.


Would there be a balance then if every criminal is fearful to do crime? Would the world be a better place actually without them? Or God let it be this way, with some sort of hidden message to human being? Would you, use the note book to kill off a criminal if you know the law could not get to them? Would you hope that the bugger who pushed your mom down the road and had stitches to her eyes to die the way you wanted them to, because the cops could not get hold of the person?


We are no different from Light Yagami anyway.
