Your condescending, contradictory bullshit isn't attractive to anyone except your frothing, basement-dwelling, virgin army.

WHY. IS. HE. WHITE. NO

I am so disappointed in netflix now.

Oh look, an Anime full of Japanese characters is now a whitewashed live action show. Because Goddess forbid Japanese characters be played by GASP!!! actual Japanese people.

lol

I thought there was a live action Japanese death note and it just sucked

That's my biggest pet peeveā€¦ all these people saying you should watch original and then, when you finally find time, you want to destroy the TV and DVD and everything in sight for being so stupid to believe some pimply basement dweller might have an ounce of aesthetic sense.

Imo it was not too bad it stands out as being average which is superb masterpiece when talking about adaptations of chinese cartoons

yes and now every race deserves their shot at it

whitewashed

second main character is black

Let's be real, only reason they cast poc in that role is to fend off whitewashing accusations.

What's funny is with the upcoming fullmetal alchemist live action movie (which has a setting based on medieval europe) has japanese people complaining about the characters all being portrayed by japanese people.

Not medieval europe. It's WWII era Germany. There's a character literally called The Fuhrer.

I don't know the series all that well tbh, thanks for correcting me.

Huh, there sure is a ton of Arabian dudes who really like anime.

Maybe... Maybe we, the west and islamic east can live together in harmony... You with your hentai brides and me with my anime hunky husbands...

If it means I can have 40 waifus, I'm in.

Proof yet again that all anime is of white people.

except naruto

this person has never been in a black anime fan skype/facebook group

Anime didn't need Netflix's help.

isn't one of the main characters black or somethinf? fuck if i know i never watched death note

It's even more absurd than that, in the cartoon Ryuk says the death note is in English because it's the most common language on the planet, and it landed in Japan by chance, could have been anywhere.

I doubt these idiots screeching have ever even watched it and are just your typical SJW crazies looking for something to moan about.

Thanks Netflix!

Lol I'm surprised they actually got Willam Defoe to play Ryuk. I don't even think they needed to change his appearance at all.

Okay but seriously, they changed the main characters name from light Yagami to light turner, they fuckin knew what they were doing

Yeah, it's called adapting a screenplay.
