Customer review of: Death Note, Volume 7
|
Customer Rating:  
Summary: I got the feeling some bad stuff is about to go down...
Comment: If you haven't read the previous volumes of Death Note, there's spoilers ahead...
The third Kira, Higuchi, has been tracked down and this volume opens with him surrounded by police, including L and Light. When he reveals the secrets of the Death Note, police confiscate it and are suddenly able to see the shinigami, Rem. Light also comes into contact with the Death Note and all of his memories return, revealing an elaborate plot that started several volumes back. Without letting go of the Death Note, Light must kill Higuchi or risk losing all his memories again. As this volume goes on, there's a huge plot twist that leads to Light's biggest victory yet...
Unlike many other Death Note volumes, this one plunges into the action with the tense standoff between Higuchi and the police. The task force must grapple with the fact that they're dealing with a supernatural being, but they seem to accept Rem and the Death Note's properties fairly quickly. If you were ever on the fence with liking Light or not, this volume will probably push you over the edge... before it's finished, a few major characters will be gone and the story will have advanced to the year 2009. We learn more about L and Watari's background and meet two of L's protegies. This is a major turning point in the series!

Summary: Denoument
Comment: It took me a week to get over what happened in this volume. I won't spoil what happens, but for those of you who know, don't quit this series just yet. Only 5 books remain, and the plot moves quickly.

Summary: Surprise!
Comment: I was totally crushed over the big surprise in this volume. I've really enjoyed the story thus far, and am a huge fan of L. I am a voracious reader, but frankly, it has been a number of years since I enjoyed a character so much as L. After howling in outraged shock, I had to slink off to my room for a private cry. It's been a week since I finished volume 7, and I'm still angry about it. But I guess it says a lot for the creators that they invented a character I would care so much about.
Up until now I have viewed Light as a misguided and foolish young man, but I wasn't really emotionally invested in him or his fate. After volume 7, I detest him. He was very clever in his manipulation of Rem, but I can't admire it like I admired the clever way he managed to get his memories back. I was so sure that L would be the one to bring Light down, but now I'm hoping Misa wises up and turns on him. It's a slim hope, I know, since I fear Misa would be more likely to commit suicide than seek revenge if she realized Light doesn't care about her. But the idea of Light's downfall coming at the hands of the person he thinks he has complete control over - it seems fitting.
Another surprise is that there is not one, but two successors to L: Near and Mello. Mello seems seriously creepy. I haven't seen enough of Near to form an opinion of him yet.
I seriously considered not reading the rest of the volumes, but I'm reconsidering... I think I'll give Ohba and Obata a chance to redeem themselves. Maybe once I've read the entire story I'll see how this all fits, and it won't feel so wrong.

Summary: Graphic SF Reader
Comment: It appears that Light all along has been running a complicated scheme involving loss of memory and the peculiar rules and powers surrounding both the Death Notes and their users, despite working with L and the police.
Not a dumb boy, this one, it seems. Getting back the abilities he wants, he bumps off L, the Yotsuba guys, and basically goes back to the criminal killing spree, as well as getting rid of L's non-police agents.
However, L's breeding ground may provide some new opposition it appears.

Summary: Volume 7 of DN
Comment: I believe many of fan of Death Note was left broken hearted after this book was published. I am also one of them. Please don't be discouraged after chapter 58. I understand you perfectly. Personally, I stoped for three months before picking up Volume 8. However, the plot still is interwined and perfectly sturctured that it is worth reading. Death Note's line work is beautifull, and the plot is unlike any other manga you ever will read. Enjoy, and don't forget to bring a tissue. (I end up needing it)

Light Yagami is an ace student with great prospects, and he's bored out of his mind. But all that changes when he finds the Death Note, a notebook dropped by a rogue Shinigami death god. Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies, and now Light has vowed to use the power of the Death Note to rid the world of evil. But when criminals begin dropping dead, the authorities send the legendary detective L to track down the killer. With L hot on his heels, will Light lose sight of his noble goal...or his life? After a high-speed chase, Light and the taskforce apprehend the newest Kira. Light regains his Death Note and his memories, and the depths of his cunning are revealed as the plans he carefully put in place before going into confinement are slowly unveiled. His masterful manipulation of both humans and Shinigami lead him to the strongest position he's yet enjoyed. But the glow of his victory is marred when a new threat appears. Can Light withstand a surprise attack on two fronts?
