WTF?
Finished Another Note (not so strange, it's only like 175 pages).

It makes my brain hurt.

Saying "Rue Ryuzaki" is "LL"? DOES NOT WORK IN ENGLISH. It just doesn't. Honestly, it reads like intruiging fanfic... and in a way it is, since it has a different author. So by my standards it's as canonical to DN as the Star Trek novels are to Star Trek. Honestly, I wonder how closely Nisioinsin followed Death Note; it strongly implies that Mello survived. Still, I'm glad to have read it. It made me laugh a lot and Beyond Birthday is an intruiging if WTFy character.

And it makes L introducing himself as Ryuzaki really creepy.</lj-icut>
