I wish people learned that you can think something is awful without resorting to death threats over it.

Like, death threats are barely a step above doxxing when it comes to internet behavior.

Like...Death Note wasn't great, but it wasn't horrendous. Better than Ghost in the Shell at least.

But that means nothing, because even if it was the shittiest movie in the world it wouldn't be even remotely an excuse.

Nobody takes death threats seriously until it's too late and then go "Holy shit, how can we prevent this!?"

And then go back to not taking death threats seriously.

Did they really make L a black guy? I mean, I can see where the anger would come from

What, why? They made most of the rest of the cast non-Japanese, why would that matter?

I really didn't see an issue with DN or GitS.

Netflix DN re-Americanized the "High school shooter" concept behind DN anyway. It was fine. Made Light the whiny angsty teen he should be and not some kind of Savant. The plotholes involving some of the issues with how the DN worked are plotholes in both. The original didn't do it any better. And L as a black guy is great.

GitS was a bit iffy in some areas, but NOT ScarJo. She did Mikoto very well, and unless you're either a) someone who hates ScarJo in EVERYTHING (which is fine, since that's just not liking ScarJo) or b) a fucking moron who lacks brain development and complain about worthless concepts like "whitewashing", she's a non-issue. The only noteworthy issue in GitS was some of the presentation and pacing.

These people have no social skills and only know how to communicate by death notes.

I actually thought it was pretty ok tbqh. Maybe I'm in the minority in that.

(I never read the manga so perhaps that has something to do with it)

Considering children learn very early on (hopefully) that threats are bad, that must be an exceedingly low level of maturity.

"Teen killer" is the only parallel there. "High school shooter" is specifically American. The outer mask/inner emotional reality on display in Death Note is rooted in Japanese culture.

L was the best part of Netflix's Death Note. But as with GitS, I wish they left well enough alone.
