Death Note 1 - The Movie Death Note 2 - The last Name Death Note 1 In the movie, Naomi kidnapped Shiori, and asked Light to come to the art museum and confess that he really is Kira if he wanted to save her. He did go to the museum, but denied that he was Kira, and said that he was upset at seeing his girlfriend being taken hostage. Naomi told Light that unless he started to write her real name, which was "Naomi" written in katakana, she would kill Shiori. Light, however, adamantly insisted that he wasn't Kira. Soichiro, upon seeing this, sent in the police. Naomi immediately became upset and distracted, allowing Light's girlfriend to break free and run away from her. Naomi, however, fired her gun and shot Shiori, who died in Light's arms shortly afterward, and then afterwards shot herself. Later, Ryuk found out that Light actually engineered Naomi's death using the Death Note, as he had already found out her name through his own investigation and written a scenario whereby Naomi would kill herself after shooting Shiori. Obviously, Ryuk was confused, as by doing this Light would end up killing Shiori, but Light revealed that he'd written her name in the Death Note as well, which shocked Ryuk. When questioned by the Shinigami, Light replied that he wasn't certain if he had even loved her. Using these events to foster hatred for Kira, he asked to join the investigation team when his father checked on him. While Soichiro was slightly reluctant, L immediately granted his wish. Death Note 2 This movie introduced Rem, the Shinigami who gave a second Death Note to Misa. Misa used her Death Note to attempt to make contact with Kira (Light) and made the Shinigami eye trade. Using this power she discovered that Light was Kira, and tracked him down. When she found him, she declared her devotion to him and gave him her Death Note as proof, and in exchange, he agreed to go out with her. Soon afterward, Light encountered L on the university campus, wearing a mask so that his face could not be seen. Misa turned up to say hello to Light, and Light manipulated the circumstance so that Misa could see L's face, and therefore his name. However, L had already deduced that Misa was the Second Kira, and he had her captured and imprisoned before she could tell Light his name. Misa gave up her ownership of the Death Note and lost all memory pertaining to it, and thus once captured she honestly remembered nothing about the Death Note, the Shinigami, or being the Second Kira. Light then used the same trick, burying his own Death Note in the forest for future retrieval, and allowed L to capture him and lock him up, telling Rem to give Misa's Death Note to someone else. After several days, the Kira deaths stopped, but then resumed when the new owner of Misa's Death Note began to use it. L authorized Misa's and Light's releases, but Misa was required to stay in a secure, though comfortable, compound. L and Light hunted down the new owner of the Death Note, Kiyomi Takada, and captured her and her Death Note, then coming to see Rem. However, upon touching the Death Note, Light remembered everything that had happened before. The case was "solved", and Misa released, but Light made her touch a piece of her previous Death Note so that she would regain her memories. Light said goodbye to her, and asked her to dig up his previous Death Note and write L's name in it. Meanwhile, Light remained in the compound with L, and Soichiro took possession of the Death Note obtained from Kiyomi, leaving it in a secure suitcase. The team went with him, leaving L and Light alone together. Misa dug up the Death Note, but could not remember L's name, so she made the Shinigami Eye trade a second time, with Ryuk. She visited Light at the compound, determined to see L again and reveal his name a second time. When she arrives, L reveals to Light that he has decided that Misa is definitely one of the Kiras and will catch her in the act of writing his name in her Death Note. Rem is furious that Light has arranged Misa's demise, and writes both L's and Watari's names in her Death Note. Both of them collapse to the floor soon afterward, supposedly dead. Rem, having used her Death Note to extend Misa's life, dies. After L's death, Misa came down and met Light, giving him her Death Note again. Light wrote his father's name immediately, shocking Misa, and arranged that he should die after bringing Light his Death Note. True to what was written, Soichiro arrived with the suitcase, but opened it to reveal that it was empty, and he remained standing. Light was shocked. As the rest of the investigation team converged on Light, L re-emerged, alive and well. He revealed that he'd had the Death Note Misa dug in the forest stolen and replaced with a fake. L discovered that deaths could be arranged up to 23 days in advance, as well as that anything written could not be changed. Three days prior to Rem writing his name, he had written his own name on the other Death Note, arranging to die peacefully at the maximum limit of that 23 days. Rem's writing of his name had had no effect because his name had already been written in a Death Note, though he lamented Watari's death. Light, in frustration, attempted to use a piece of the Death Note hidden in a secret compartment of his watch, but Matsuda shot him before he could do so. As a last-ditch attempt to eliminate his opposition, Light tried persuading Ryuk to write their names in his Death Note (and extend Light's life). Ryuk, however, refused to do this, and instead wrote Light's name in his Death Note. Light pleaded, to no avail, and finally died in his father's arms while Misa watched in horror. L was given possession of all the Death Notes, but informed Ryuk, much to the Shinigami's dismay, that they would all be burned. Afterward, Interpol closed the case. Twenty days later, after being congratulated by Soichiro, L died peacefully while eating his sweets, with a picture of Watari next to him. I have both of the movie's. I like L the most because of all that sweet candy. In the movie character L he's is really cutey. Which of the two movie you like the most and why? Which character you like the most and why?
2nd. 1st was bad. Failed to develope Light's character. Also dun really like the change in story line. Not convincing. L. He is cute and fits the role well..
OMG, another DN thread already? No idea which one I would like better, haven't seen the live action films yet (but will do... soon...) But in the manga, I absolutely ADORE L (and from the screen shots I see for the live action, I would like the L in the film too) Will get back to you once I see the films Which shigami do you like better? Either from the manga or film is fine... I like REM even though he (it?) was quite blind in his obsessive protectiveness on Misa ^^b
