Alright, I finally started watching Death Note because so many people have insisted that it's awesome.
I will never listen to those people again.
I had to pause it mid-episode and come write this because a character actually said the following line:
"You're in college now. That's kind of exciting. I'm filled with joy."
To quote The Robot Devil of Futurama (a/k/a Beelzebot):

Your lyrics lack subtlety! You can't just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!
Also, Death Note? More like Death Instruction Manual. I cannot believe how much fucking exposition is in this show. And it's obvious exposition. Of shit that's happening as they're explaining it. God damn it, Japan. Get your shit together!

As much as I like the series though, I could never defend its character's names. Light? L? Mellow? On more than one occasion I seriously thought of pausing the episode to go buy some manner of marshmallow, glow in the dark cereal.
I guess all that remains is to take Death Note out to a nice, out of the way restaurant where none of your friends could possibly be. Remark on how good the price of their salmon is, order Death Note a really cheap Lambrusco, and then look directly into it's eyes and say that things just aren't going they way you had hoped. While you're sure there's some great guy out there just for Death Note, you just aren't the one. Then wish Death Note the best of luck, and maybe give it a hug (pelvises not touching of course), then move on.
Or just call it a fuck nugget. Your call.
