Lego in Death Note (Japanese anime)

Recommended Posts

One of the more popular Japan Anime shows these days is Death Note. It's not as vile as the name sounds... basically it's a battle of wits between two geniuses, one with a misguided sense of justice who has a notebook that allows him to kill whoever's name he writes in his book, vs another who is determined to bring the first to justice.

Not a kids show, but mostly because they would find it too boring.

Regardless, a recent episode (33) featured lego-type figs.. kinda funny to see them there.

It's a pretty good show, but you have to see it from the beginning, or it makes no sense. Look it up on Wikipedia. Fansubs are available.

They look more Kubrick (all the rage in Japan), but still a bit off.

I'm suprised Capcom got away with THEIR minifig-like Servbot characters from one of the Rockman games:

Scroll down to the picture from episode 30.

Oh hell, yeah you're right lol. Undeniably Lego.

Really, its a good advert for Lego - Near is this super-genius kid, and he plays with Lego. Pretty good ad.

Especially in a society of theirs where bad grades = suicide.

EDIT:

OOH, editing wierdness... LOL. Jinzo somehow your post came out as mine, and mine is gone.

Ahh, the awesome powers of a mod. Almost like those of...... KIRA!

That's pretty neat, I've been meaning to check out that show.

They seem more like minifig/kubrick hybrids to me, with Kubrick heads, bodies and arms and minifig hands, legs, and waists.

I bet he meant to quote you, and ended up inside your post...

Anyway I've heard great things about Death Note, it's very high on my list to download buy. This is just another reason I guess X-D
