Ah... I'm just a stalker, I'm very sorry for posting so suddenly (and for my poor English)... but I find this post very interesting and I'm such an obsessed Death Note fan @__@;; *sweatdrops*
Am I the only one who liked the ending? (seems so) Death Note's ending is sure different from everything else I have seen. At first, I was really shocked about Mello's death, it was made in a way that I didn't even feel he was dead (I started crying a lot a week later when I understood he was really gone (^o^;;; ), that and the "lack of emotions" from the person he sacrificed himself for (which is not lack of emotion, it's just you must know Near in order to get an idea of what's going on with him and to understand how big this tragedy is). But when I think about it, I find such coldness really interesting. Death Note is the only manga I read where characters die as if nothing, and they don't really need a very tragic scene full of pages and tears from everyone! That's because I think this manga is something you must discover yourself, since main plot is always the book. Characters feelings, relationships, secrets and affairs (*coughs*) are secondary, and many of them are only hinted and hidden, just like the tragedy of their deaths. Only those who want to discover how big the tragedy is (along with discovering the characters themselves), will do so. Which is interesting and fun to me as reader, as I have found out many things about Mello and Near (*coughs*) I never noticed before.
And about it being very open, that's great as well! Hence we are all excited waiting for vol.13 now (*o*)
Uu... sorry about this long post (^^; When it comes to Death Note, I can't stop myself...
