Death Note ending vs Code Geass R2 ending

I also hate it when people hate because others' opinions aren't the same as their own. People have preferences, and in some cases for some fans, they liked Light better even if he was the "bad guy" (I'm one of them). Also, the reason why most Light fans hate the ending is because he got taken down by the lego playing retard, and the method was retarded as well. There are numerous reasons why Light is liked more than the other characters. One of them was because he WASN'T a little bitch in the beginning of the series.

R2's ending was VERY emotional

but the ending was cool to. the usual just as planned he outsmarting him, outsmarting me, outsmarting him

but i had to go with R2 because i think lulu went out "just as planned" while light went out as the opposite

Death note's ends.....

for me.

Its true ending sucks balls compared to R2's.

I'm not so much upset by people liking Light or not wanting him to die, but by people being surprised or upset that he died that way. When you look at the series as a piece of literature, Light dying in the end is powerful; it is symbolic and means something. If he had lived or won against Near, it wouldn't have meant as much, and it would have sent a different message. I like Death Note's ending from a literary standpoint, because I can tell what the author is trying to say. To me, complaining about Light dying at the end of Death Note is like complaining about Romeo and Juliet dying at the end of the play.

But to be clear, I'm talking only about Light dying due to Near and Mello's (sort of) teamwork and Mikami's fuckup. The running stuff, I don't really care for. I prefer the manga ending (and even the movie ending) to the anime ending.

You don't say...

Even though Light was my favorite character, I (and many other Light fans) probably wouldn't mind it as much if it were L that had defeated Light as Near and Mello weren't all that great in my opinion. Also, the fact that Light would actually trust someone (after freaking out over Misa's fuck up) and with a niche lifestyle is beyond me. As you know, the author of the manga was asked to extend the series which forced him to make the crappy arc that all Light fans hate.

Sure it has an underlying message, that good always triumphs over evil and there is nothing wrong with it. But again, it's the means that really pisses the fans off.


I lol'd.

Well, I have heard it said (on more than one occasion) that the movie had the best ending out of the three mediums. And I can't really argue with that. (As long as we completely ignore the third movie that focused on L. That was worthless and added nothing.)

I'd like to say that both endings had things to offer that the other didnt
DN's had a message like wat was said and i think thats something to be expected from wat the very beginning talked about-Justice shall prevail and wat not and it was a good way to end the series after all the shit
R2 showed how no matter how a character acts there's still a hidden side to his actions and wat he is truly thinking.. unless they say wat they were thinking but thats not my point... still R2's ending shows strength in ideas with out too much straying away

R2 wih no doubt. DN ending was too pretendable, so it didn't strike me really hard, but dying Lelouch and Karren's comment at the end... man I cried like a baby.




And...

MY precious Shirley!

Well that was one another point in CG2 that threw me to the depths of sadness.

Yeah CG owns DN totally :) It was really EPIC ending in CG (im saying the same thing as others, but thats unavoidable in this case sry... :D)

u think that has stopped anyone before?
lol

I prefer Death Note's ending. I mean, I could finish that. When R2's end began I stopped the video and ran around the house screaming.

Granted, I'm not a fan of R2, but the ending is much better.



Still...I don't like either. Code Geass was amazing in the first season, but terrible in the second because of Sunrise. The strategic element has almost completely been stripped in favor of many overpowering Knightmare Frames. That's fine for Gundam, not Code Geass.

It literally brought tears to my eyes. The only other anime to do that was Clannad After Story (no contest Clannad is wins that, but this is between Code Geass and Cowboy Beebop).



Dude, I know how you feel. After watching School Days... guh, I can't even talk about it.

Light got what was coming to him >.>

Why Lelouche ='(

lelouch didnt die he most likely took c.c. immortality from her which he promised he would it also would explain why when nunnally touched him as he fell she saw all of what he did for her. think about it

Hmm well i think i gotta go with the Code Geass ending here.
not reallly any particular reason just thought it was decent and had meaning but i would have gone with
a more generic ending though.
Death note ending was just kind of sad, how Light just dies off so easily.
