Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for crime-drama fans, anyone who likes to be kept guessing and fantasy fans. If you loved Zodiac or L.A. Confidential, start here.
The mood
Tense and unsettling, dark and gritty.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

L's successor must ponder L's defeat if he hopes to succeed where his famed predecessor failed. At the headquarters of the SPK, he calls upon the Japanese task force to declare war on Light. A recap of Death Note episodes 27–37, with new footage.
