A bit of news regarding the Netflix adaptation -> Article

Additionally, a different article said they were expecting fans on hate it on instinct, but "Still, this new Death Note will have nothing to do with the old Death Note, so hopefully, and we’re genuinely praying for this, fans will be more receptive to this version."

Ahh thank you for sharing! The title of the second article, haha

Regarding Duff Note, what worries me is that they'll fail at making it even close to the original source, but people who have never watched death note before will love it because it's by the creators of stranger things, and they'll argue that their version is better and never come to experience the original death note. That's not to say that it couldn't end up being somewhat decent, but the possibility of people being exposed to death note by what could be a poorly done live action rather than the anime or manga is what irks me.

Agreed. I'm a bit worried the fandom is going to become entirely different and full of people who either don't know or appreciate the manga and/or anime at all. Granted, that isn't really what happened when Noteflix came out, and even though it bombed critically it apparently did well enough with the number of people watching it to warrant Netflix making more Death Note content. From what I remember most people thought Noteflix was a pretty bad adaptation, and it mostly only rekindled interest in the old series for a while instead of transforming the fandom into a bunch of Light Turner stans. I have no idea what the Stranger Things fandom is like either, but I remember how overwhelming it felt here when the new 2020 one-shot came out and Death Note was suddenly relevant again to the masses. All the posts I was just trying to make for my followers would get about 10x the notes and eyes on them automatically, which felt weirdly hollow and uncomfortable to me somehow. And the comments on the posts were full of randoms getting into disagreements and making the same stupid bad jokes and assumptions and such over and over again, which bothered me more than I realized it would hahaha. I'm just not sure I have the energy to navigate all of that if it becomes a chronic aspect of the fandom, especially if it becomes dramatic with fights over the new series vs. the old series and new fans vs. old fans and such. I'm a bit torn between welcoming a bit of change and new content to make things a little more interesting in the fandom, and also not having a lot of faith in the new show actually being my tastes at all 😅 I feel like a grumpy and fussy and tired old fan here a lot already. So if the new series proves super popular yet isn't my tastes, and if a huge influx of excitable Duff Note kids starts partying on my lawn 24/7, then I am probably going to feel even more ancient and cranky and worried about sounding like a snobby buzzkill when posting on my own blog lol

My jadedness for the new DN remake is already at its limit so I have decided to view everything through a lens of cheery disdain

Actually I do care a lot about the new Netflix adaptation, I need to know whether they give L a jacket or not

Oh boy, I sure am glad that Netflix learned from past mistakes and decided a story like Death Note is going to be handled by writers who think like this! We wouldn't want Death Note to have too many character deaths or depressing and unsentimental moments, amirite? 💀

We need to come up with a catchy title like Noteflix for referring to the new upcoming Duffer Brothers' Death Note TV series. Personally I propose Duff Note

[13eyond13]

Ah yes, Death Note... that classic sentimental and inspiring tale where heart always wins out over cynicism
