Honestly, I think Light's supposed to sound like an average school kid, since besides being a bit smarter than most, he is. I'm sure Swaile grow into the role as the show goes on, and will probably mature a great deal after episode 25, or whenever it is.

He's in his third year which is the equivalent of a senior at the start of the series. He graduates then becomes a college student for about half the series. The latter half he is in his twenties. |

Damn it, I need to follow this, if only to know what the crap everyone is talking about. This, and play Portal. I think I'll watch the live action version, see how it is.

Don't waste your time with the live-action. It's ho-hum. Are you reluctant to watch the animé because of its length? It's generally worth the entertainment you'll get. Oh! Light's voice actor sucks. Thats why. Nothing wrong with Death Note being on Adult Swim, Light just sounds like a wuss.
This, and then some. I was thinking the exact same thing. I mean, he doesn't sound like anything I pictured at first, which was some egotistial, slick, know it all with a god-complex (hi, Xy-poo >_> ) but he just sounded like an over the top schoolboy. Have you two heard the Japanese voice actors? They sounded very, very well chosen. I'd watch the whole series over again, if only the American voice actors had the same sound. Since Death Note, Light's voice actor has been popping up in all sorts of similar roles. Code Geass and Gundam 00, as far as I know. I guess Death Note really made him. |

Anyway, I might get used to it the more the series goes on, but yeah. Sounds terrible at the moment. Peace. Yeah, Light's voice was unusually meek, considering the great power he had been given. I don't know if this is on purpose, to give a "wolf in sheeps clothing" appearance to him, or to make it easier to partner his character with the shinigami. (If he was egotistical, he may have ignored the shinigami's guidance.) Yeah, I'm also dealing with the bad voicing for the sake of the story. On the other hand, they picked the perfect voice for Ryuk. I'm surprised that Brian Drummond didn't take some jobs away from Steven Blum, when doing character voices similar to Ryuk. Maybe Brian should do some voicing for X-Men's Wolverine? .The Final Negotiator. |

Hmm. having had a chance catch an episode, I have to say, Ocean has problems with long shows. The dub overall is pretty decent, but however much like InuYasah, the dub is pretty typical TV fair. Pass. Ocean is capable of doing amazing dubs however, watch Black Lagoon.

I've only started watching this, and really I'd just like to point out the "epic potato chip eating..OF DEATH" scene in the episode that just aired is goddamn hilarious.

I watched this for the first, maybe only time last night/this morning, and yeah, this was pretty awesome. I could see where'd I'd get to watching this show, it looks nice, and the monster thing's Vegeta, right? I just don't watch too much tv anymore, and am unwilling to commit >.>... |

I watched an episode of it a while back and it didn't hook me, but the Dramatic Chips part definitely has me wanting more Death Note.

To be honest, I don't hear it, but that could be because I haven't watched Dragonball Z in ages. Based on reading the manga, I'd say Death Note gets better. Ryuk's definitely been my favorite part of the anime, though. |

Ryuk's definitely been my favorite part of the anime, though. Depends. Funimation's doing Death Note, right? If so, it is all too likely to be Christopher Sabat portraying the... monster thing. He likes to do those monstery-person thing voices. War. |

Nope, it's Viz with The Ocean Group. And Brian Drummond voices Ryuk, the "monster thing." |
