"YOU DO NOT NEED TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL TO WRITE THE BEST DEATH NOTE FANFIC EVER!! ! "

I finally finished the second live action Death Note movie, and I mostly enjoyed it a lot. Loved seeing it live action (seeing real people playing the characters was cool!), enjoyed most of the places it went off on its own plot-wise. Small thing I didn't like: In the anime, there was a rule that went something like "A human who writes in the Death Note will go to neither heaven nor hell... but no human goes there anyway". In the live action, they left off the "but no one goes there" part, which made it imply that there would be consequences for Light that there weren't in the anime.

So now I'm watching the third movie. Not quite halfway through it yet, but can't say I'm overly liking it so far. The bad guys seem rather over the top and not too believable. I'm not sure where they're going with the kid/L, but maybe that'll be interesting. (I'm also not sure I like this whole "network of letter people" thing either...)

But anyway! I decided to see if I could find some fanfic. Googled. First result:

"YOU DO NOT NEED TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL TO WRITE THE BEST DEATH NOTE FANFIC EVER!! ! "

Hold me! I'm scared!

Anyone have any Death Note recs? Google keeps wanting to point me to fanfiction.net, but I know better than that.

I deliberately avoid looking for fanfics written by people I don't know, so I'm afraid I can't offer any suggestions.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's the best way. However, I'm years late coming into the Death Note fandom, so... :/

I liked the third movie only because I got to see more of L, and I really started loving that actor.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yes! I liked L a lot, too. His actor was really good.

Is there any news floating around of another movie? I wouldn't mind if they went earlier in the storyline (pre-anime) or something.

I was sort of hoping that L wouldn't die. Wasn't there a rule about 'if the same name gets written into two Death Notes at the same exact time, nothing will happen to that person'? I was hoping L would do that, since I think he had two books at the time he wrote his own name.

I think the rule was, the first one stands. I.e. If you write "Mr. X will be hit by a bus" and then you write "Mr. X will jump off a cliff" he'll die by bus.
