Death Note Musical 2015 - Where is the justice (japanese version)

[@amanda758]

i came from listening to the English version for years now, this is so good too omg

[@theseptichearts6946]

This is the first time I've ever preferred the English version over japanese

[@cheesy_yeety]

Me too

[@jilliancabrera9928]

Same

[@暧昧-u8e]

I think it's because we can't understand what they're saying. It's a different story if we did.

[@airachica]

@@暧昧-u8e Not necessarily. I'm bilingual, and every now and then, I prefer one language over the other, even if I've known the other version longer or if it's the original :)

[@mayah2397]

@@airachica i agree! but how about for this particular situation? i'm bilingual in english and japanese, and i honestly prefer this version over the english one both for the passion and lyrics. personally i think this one reflects the manga better, but that's just my opinion lmao

damn didn't even realize till you pointed it out

[@briang.2218]

I kinda want to see an English Broadway-style musical for Death Note with some of the original music from the show, like the original Dies Irae piece.

The English version is actually better for once. Good for you, dub!

[@perrydunetz882]

ericbazinga it's not a dub the English came first in this case

[@Minmin_265]

@@perrydunetz882 what- the musical is in Japanese, so the english is dub

[@perrydunetz882]

@@Minmin_265 no, the entire musical was written in English, than translated into Japanese when Broadway wouldnt pick it up

[@LordEdgware]

@@Minmin_265 The musical was written and recorded in the US, but for some reason it was never shown on stage there. The first country to present it live was Korea, which also recorded its own studio versions.

[@celestiawinters667]

A lot of people are saying that they think the English version is better, but I don't see how. The English version doesn't seem to drive home the main points of the original manga as much.

[@シンジ碇-f8o]

I think they meant better in terms of the vocals, not the lyrics. The English demos and Korean casts featured better singers than the original Japanese cast.

[@nanamisuzu]

歌の好みはともかく、戦争のない国の日本人が歌うからこそ響くものもあるよね。怒られるかもしれないけど、アメリカ人に言われても…と思う

[@acathosh]

Is this audio from the live version? That might explain why the English is better

[@arnoldthotticus4844]

Im P sure it is, and the American version is a studio recording of a concept album which is why it's so clear

[@roseJ96]

I think I like the English version better. Which is very rare.

[@laylafoodwizard9505]

I feel like there was more passion

[@pandipanda8507]

Me too

[@magiv4205]

The vocals are just so much better in english and there is much more passion to it.

[@MimoriAzume]

Well, I don't feel like there was as much emotion put into the English version and it just didn't feel like Light to me when I listened to the voice and all. The vocals were alright, but there are several moments in Light's Japanese songs that feel like they do better at highlighting who Light really is and how he has changed over the course of Death Note. But that doesn't mean the English is a bad version, I just way prefer everyone in this version for the same reason being the voices. 😉

[@cheesy_yeety]

Ik ._.

[@kurok1132]

Unexpectedly, the English version is much better.

[@kaeviernes673]

This feels sped up compared to the English version. Was this sped up in anyway to bypass the copyright youtube guidelines? lol

[@lightyagami5800]

is L wearing a blazer in the picture

[@Charles12]

yeah. its okay its not in the production

[@MaguireGOAT4Ever]

Yeah, they are not really in the "death note-clothes" that's the reason ryuk and rem are humans

[@Sxdgefield]

Someday this better come to the west end

[@plaguedoctor_139]

We have Alexander Hamilton.

[@carriejones2827]

​@@plaguedoctor_139 we do. We could also have this lol

[@めろまい-s8w]

英語版ってスタジオ収録で日本版は舞台の音源をそのまま収録したものだから、英語版の方が音質も良いし修正も出来るわけで…歌って踊って一発録りの日本版は英語版より下手と言うのは変じゃない？？

[@mangajag]

Still prefer this over the English version.

[@haylixbright4809]

This Kira is Miyano Mamoru?

[@MaguireGOAT4Ever]

No, it's Kenji urai

[@latenightcrazies]

did they cut this in the korean version?

[@HaNguyen-jf6sk]

its original version is from Japan

[@シンジ碇-f8o]

LateNightCrazies + No its still in the Korean version

[@bakura23]

is there an actual video of the musical?

[@asachan2119]

+bakura23 Just in bad quality...

[@ericklinki8204]

bakura23 Yes, the website is called Sinnesspiel. Google it. There is a download link with english subtitles.

[@julianlance2171]

what if we were to bing it, or yahoo it, etc?!

[@卑弥呼-f9b]

I found it from someone else's comment on KZbin and copied the link, hopefully it works kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKvTf2eHbbt5r6M

근데솔직히 이런퀄리티 들으러 돈내고가냐....진짜 솔직히 이건 모욕이다...진짜좀심했다..

Hayatos version is better in my opinion
