This is the moment that Light Yagami became Kira

It's honestly impressive how much is conveyed with just his actions and reactions. I think the show might have been better off if the audience was left to figure things out!

This is so much more mentally engaging to watch, it makes you feel more intelligent as a viewer thinking through all the things going through his head. It’s like the director’s cut of Blade Runner

bro this is so much better omfg.

My father is in idiot he couldn’t recognise my oldest siblings I hate how everyone have a normal father except me I literally have no emotional or empathy to him even when his leg was broken I didn’t feel anything

now imagine without music and more realistic environemnt/ambient sounds, and more realistic shots . itd be so fun to watch

Единственный случай, когда Лайт использовал тетрадь во благо

This gets a lot goofier later in the show

Same problem as Walter White, is it wasn't for his huge ego he'd never get caught

😅 is what I need all my life

This makes it so much more realistic

It wasn’t too late at that point to turn back destroy the notebook or whatever. It was the moment light wrote a second name down later in the story that there was no going back

Ive never seen Death Note but man do I prefer this over the cliche inner monologue we always get

It's so intense, holy moly!

🎉

This is soo much better

I didn't watch death note, this seems perfect without internal monologues..

it's somehow weirdly normal

soundtrack helps a lot

Love this.

this is so much better. I hate the deluge of exposition that basically chews and digests what I see and vomits it directly into my mouth. let me chew on it myself, I wish to find out what kind of person he is by seeing him act not hearing him tell me.

You can really appreciate the soundtrack this way.

Holy crap... this is like a MASTERPIECE this way.

me going to the manga to read exactly what he’s thinking 😂

ngl, I prefer it without the internal monologues, just cuz it seems more immersive

Damn now I wanna rewatch death note

I think light would've ended up killing people anyways cus he was so into killing people immediately like he's just insane

honestly i kinda like it without knowing the monologue. because they drew his expressions really well

Should also do it without any background music!

I would love to watch the entire series without the internal monologues, it must be a completely different experience

I think this honestly lends credence to show don't tell

This scene was actually way better this way

Anime is so much better without all the stupid internal monologuing

His first murder was that biker

LMAO the show would be so quiet

I discovered I don't have an internal monologue due to this series.

This works suprisingly well

Death note really made me realise that YOU can’t erase your enemies, you have to live with them being around, imagine you have writes their name in the death note, and they say “sorry” starts being friendly for 40 seconds and then they just die, you realised you had an opportunity to be friends with long lost enemies, this is why I think death note teaches a LESSON

This didn't feel like anything was missing. Show not tell.

I wish we had a version where we could hear his internal thoughts smh

The silence creates tension and it definitely works with some scenes. Unfortunately a lot of scenes have key information in the monologue which causes confusion at times.

Very interesting, it's much more tense this way.

Kira yoshikage and part 4 is over.

oh this is pretty cool actually. anime if it was more realistic

This is cool as fuck

i now want a "Death Note KAI" , the entire anime without a single internal monologue

if i saw this when i havent watched death note i would think this is real scene

They should have made the series like this, I know it sounds ridiculous but it would be good since it makes the viewer guess what's happening

Mikami's scenes wouldn't change much - Delete! Delete! Delete!

“Oh what the hell, I’ll bite.”
