lexieeApril 9, 2024It is a great adaptation of the original manga, especially because it captures the different tones explored in the source material so well. It's a unique series that presents the same dilemmas, making us cheer for Light and then for L, even if we don't agree with everything they do. With its own merits, this anime is definitely worth watching and rewatching a few times.

Nicole BudmanJanuary 19, 2026Primeros 25 capítulos: MASTERPIECE. Del 26 al 36 aceptables. El último capítulo intensamente PERFECTO (aprendan HBO... Y sí, sigo resentida por el final de GOT).
PD: "L" te amo. Me encantó esta serie.
