Death Note or Code Geass

Death Note. BTW.... Anime Vice.

You'd do better knowing the rules

Code Geass was better.

Nope.

Death Note by far 
 
-Better ongoing plot 
 
-The main anti hero was a TRUE genius and didn't rely on plot devices like his counterpart Lelouch 
 
-Less lame "anime freak out" and fan service moments 
 
-More serious, realistic feel to it 
 
-Better Pacing 
 
-And just plain more interesting.

Haven't seen Code Geass but Death Note was amazing until L died. The second he died the show went down hill and sucked.

This.

I've only ever watched Death Note but it was seriously good.

I didn't mind L dying.

I liked Mello and Near.

=P

I dislike the human character designs in Code Geass, but I love me some giant robots/mecha. So Code Geass for me.
 
I still enjoyed Death Note after L died, to be honest. I did feel it took a slight drop in quality, but I don't think it "sucked" like a lot of people say.

LIGHT SHOULD HAVE WON, BECAUSE I-er- HE IS AWESOME.

The manga version of his death is even worse than the anime.

Even Mikami calls him scum.

Then he begs Ryuk to kill everyone and Ryuk's all

"LOL NO".

Anyway, I used to love Light consistently, but I re-watched Death Note and he really just lost his sh*t around before L dying.

The post L looks into ordinary life, where everyone is constantly terrified, don't help either.

Still love him, but I'm not entirely on his side all the way.

His biggest mistake was being arrogant and getting L involved in the first place by killing Lind L. Taylor.

Death Note by far the character design in Code bugs me. Oh and Death None has Misa :)

It kind of annoyed me how Light went bonkers, it was totally out of character. He was a noble and a bored soul in the beginning, his descent into total megalomania and psychosis happened pretty abruptly. I think that the author just wanted the audience to know that Light was the villain. It started out as anti-hero vs hero, but then Light was made to definitively be the villain soon after that. It's even more obvious in the movies where he has his long-time girlfriend killed.

I didn't think it was abrupt.

I thought it clearly progressed since the beginning. Starting with Raye Penber's death.

Then he kills Naomi Misora, and it's gotten worse.

And by the time he's killed L, he's lost it.

After L, all the "KIRA IS GOD" stuff on TV and the internet clearly didn't help. Years passed, and by the end, he's lost.

Code Geass for sure.

I liked the anime ending better than the manga...specifically the Japanese version. I didn't like ryuk's or light's English voice. L's wasn't bad but his translations were a bit off at important moments.

I also want to note that Light God complex started way before Penber, in fact it started as soon as he found out the death note was real...There is proof of that when he met Ryuk and had that initial conversation.

Code if you want to enjoy an anime and Death note for depression.

Really great conversation and I would totally butt in on this but the fact Venom said he liked M and N made me wanna vomit all over.

@ArturoCalaKayVee: Explain to me why you hate Mello and Near, please.

I really am interested.

You're right, I forgot about that.

@InnerVenom123: Honestly, I haven't seen DN in so long, I can't be specific. I just didn't like either of their characters or how they were written. M was the worst because he was so different. N was almost exactly like L but just annoyed me. I may have to revisit some scenes to give a more detailed hate explanation lol.

@ArturoCalaKayVee: Go watch it again so I can see why. :P

First, this 
 

I still enjoyed Death Note after L died, to be honest. I did feel it took a slight drop in quality, but I don't think it "sucked" like a lot of people say.
