Another great highlight of how Death Note is actually super cringey

None of it made any sense. Suspension of disbelief is one thing but they took it way too far.

I like Jojo along with death note. Sometimes fun things are just wacky and weird so YMMV. I can totally understand why you don't like it though!

Ok thank Thursday. I couldnt get past a couple of episodes because I liked the concept, but that's it.

Right? The most difficult part of writing is convincing people that the 'X' character you are writing is 'X.' The second most difficult part of writing is writing an 'X' character that is actually 'X,' which is made much more difficult if the author isn't 'X' or has had a lot of time interacting with people who are 'X.'

In the case of death note, X = intelligent.

I like to imagine he did crank one out but they just can’t show that on TV

Yeah same although I'm sure the investigation team's reaction would have been hilarious

TBF, the guy is a psychopath, and it's not uncommon for them to be asexuals (It's a Venn Diagram folks, I'm not implying anything, relax)
