Then the story develops with more twists and turns, they add more plates, until by the end, there are so many plates spinning that if you concentrate on one, they all fall down. For instance just as things begin to settle between Light and L – with both parties investigations coming to a stalemate – another Death Note wielder appears on scene and begins to stir things up. The episodes are: 'Rebirth', 'Confrontation', 'Dealings', 'Pursuit', 'Tactics', 'Unraveling', 'Overcast', 'Glare', 'Encounter', 'Doubt', 'Assault', 'Love', 'Confession', 'Friend', 'Wager', 'Decision', 'Execution', 'Ally', 'Matsuda', 'Makeshift', 'Performance', 'Guidance', 'Frenzy', 'Revival', 'Silence', 'Renewal', 'Abduction', 'Impatience', 'Father', 'Justice', 'Transfer', 'Selection', 'Scorn', 'Vigilance', 'Malice', '1. For L and the authorities, murder is murder, and a sudden rash of unexplained deaths among criminals surely must be connected. In regards to audio quality then only LPCM (for TV Series) and Dolby Digital (for the movies) are included; but thankfully the original English and Japanese audio are left intact – is it good, or is it bad?

For some reason I thought Code Geass was created before Death Note, hence the whole time I felt Light was just a copycat of Lelouch. Death Note – The Complete Collection, which consists of both the anime series and feature length films, will be available on Blu-ray from the 19th December 2016.

That interesting aspect being the ‘cat-and-mouse’ between Light Yagami and the mysterious detective known as L; who in turn begins to lead the Police’s investigation into these murders. by offering to purchase goods and services you represent to us that you are 18 years of age or over and authorise us to transmit information (included updated information) to obtain information from third parties, including but not limited to, your debit or credit card numbers or credit reports to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorisation and to authorise individual purchase transactions. Anyone who has watched them both knows what I mean: the similarities between Light and Lelouch are uncanny.

For one thing DVD introduced a lot of compression to squeeze six or seven episodes into 9GB of space. One the one hand, he is an egotistical, draconian serial killer with a messiah complex who is responsible for the deaths of millions over his lifetime, and is so ruthless he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. After writing the cause of death, details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds. He comes to Japan to hunt the ruthless vigilante now come to be known as ‘Kira’, and he gathers a small group of determined investigators to help, among them Light’s own policeman father, Inspector Souichiro Yagami.

You do get improved video and audio with this collection, but the subtitling is less impressive, and the lack of extra features means that you can’t ditch those DVDs. It’s not just the TV series which have undergone the HD remaster process either; as both the movies – of which retell events of the series with slightly adjusted animation – have also received the HD treatment.

Three hours of additional extra content includes interviews with the Japanese creators, behind-the-scenes footage of the English and Japanese voice cast, production art, audio commentary and much more! We all know of sci-fi stories about wanting to travel back in time and kill Hitler; we all wanted to get our own back on people who have committed atrocities around the globe; even during the US election, I bet you there were millions of people who looked at Trump and Clinton and thought to themselves: “Wouldn’t be brilliant if one or even both of these people just dropped down dead, so that the US can have a leader who is actually good”.

The episodes have the Japanese credit sequences, and there are no translated credit reels, or credit screens. You sympathise with his cause, because his cause is ultimately to make the world a better place by getting rid of people who are awful, even though the thing he is doing is awful too.
