  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Death Note

I started watching Death Note when it came out and it is one of my favorite animes so far. For those of you who haven't seen it, it's about a high school student named Light who finds a notebook called Death Note. He can write someone's name in the notebook and picture there face and they will die. He can also manipulate the times of death and how they die.

I've seen the first movie... it was REALLY bad.

Tatsuya Fujiwara (from Battle Royale) just looks too innocent to play Light. Then they took out the monologue explaining their reasoning which really destroys a lot of the story, but the worst thing they did was adding a girlfriend he didn't have and changing the story so her existence would fit. The CGI for Ryuk was actually ok.

I've read most of the manga and anime, and seen the first movie (my best friend plans to get the second one next pay day ^___^ ). I couldn't read it after what happened to L. ;-;

I do plan to read/buy volume 12 when it comes out so that I can finally see how it ended.

I watched the first couple of episodes and was pleased that they were doing a good job at it but for this series I am pretty much was just a manga reader. The first movie left me a bit cold because they changed aspects of the storyline for no real good reason but I still want to see the second movie because that is where the storyline really began to get interesting.

It's one of my favorites too. ^_^ I got a lot of my friends hooked too.

I've been watching the anime as it releases. I can't wait for next Tuesday.
