Death Note Rewrite

Folks in Japan who stay in on the 31st of August will be able to watch the Directors cut of Death Note called "Rewrite - Genshisuru Kami." A very rough translation is "Rewrite - The god who hallucinates" (リライト・幻視する神).

The three hour special will be aired from 8pm to 11pm. They are calling it a three hour special but I suspect that at least 30 mins of that is going to be commercials.

So whats new then? Well there will be scenes that wasn't shown in the anime series and the thing that makes this edition special is that the story is told from the viewpoint of Ryuk.
They will also show some scenes of the new Death Note live action movie to be released on Feb 9th 2008.

Folks who are not in Japan will probably be able to enjoy "Death Note Rewrite" a few days after from your fave fan-subbers.

Just thought I would mention that I translated "Rewrite" from "リライト" which is also the same spelling for "Re-Light" - but I'm guessing its Rewrite ^^;
Video below for those who don't know what Death Note is...

If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

    Wow there's another Death Note movie coming out? I hope the Rewrite episode will be an alternate ending for the series where Light wins...

    I loved reading the deathnote manga up until the point where it just got ridiculous. If I finish the manga I'll definitely check out the rewrite.

    bahhh! you got my hopes up with the intro to your post. I was hoping you ment that it was an alternate ending, seeing as the current one was a pile of over-ripe fish parts.
    Im still looking forward to it thoush, since ryuk was my favourite character. Thanks for the post !!!

    A death god's POV, huh? Interesting.

    I was also hoping for an alternate ending - preferably one where Raito kills Matsuda slowly and painfully (I really despise that idiot - how on earth did he become a police anyway?).

    As for the movie, are the directors going to let the same actor play Raito? (They probably are.) That's a shame; that actor ruins Raito's image, both internally and externally.

    I was never a fan of Tatsuya Fujiwara as Light Yagami. The saving grace was Shidō Nakamura voicing Ryuk and Ken'ichi Matsuyama's wonderful performance as L in part I.

    Seeing Ryuk's perspective does sound somewhat appealing, but I am not a fan of fillers in general unless they are wrote and directed well (case in point: Full Metal Alchemist the anime).
