153 – Manga in Motion 20 – Death Note 2017

This week dakazu’s been reading a lot! He’s amazed that Mizuki Shigeru was writing Watashi no Hibi when he was 91, checks out a decent rugby manga called Full Drum, sick of edgelord gore manga like Pygmalion, and finds a similar loser protagonist in Boys on the Run. Also, Seamus checks out volume 2 of Girl’s Last Tour, we check in with our weekly BEASTARS update, and dakazu has been deceived by the false advertising of GAMERS. Then we examine Netflix’s version of Death Note! We recap the original source material and weigh in on whether this movie is a good adaptation or not!
