So it's been a long time since I heard the Duffer Brothers are going to be remaking the Death Note series in Live Action. Which got me excited but also nervous at the same time since the movie got worse in the US and shows disrespect to the anime. And I hope to God that the Netflix Series of Death Note gets better than the movie, and not to fall for that same mistake again. Although by any means, I'm not going to recast the Asians, I would instead recast the US version. Something better than the movie, and even more better than the Duffer Brothers. It's something like how Light Yagami was much more of a loner in a school and felt so dull, that even later before the notebook "Death Note" came along falling out of the sky, he uses it to kill someone for the crimes they have committed after finding out that it was real and uses it as a revenge or justice to become the new God. And I want this series to build up as a climax, a rising action, and a moral of this story. So with that being said, let's recast Death Note.
