Not many people know what it means, and it's very esoteric, so I'm sure that nobody would notice.

Indeed. Besides, since this is an anime/manga website, everybody will get the point, even if they know what the original version meant.

How the hell can you have L-syndrome from Tetris? Are you addicted to the L-shaped pieces or something? XD

No I'm not. I just happen to know a large amount of info related to video games. Another such thing is Pac-man Fever, which can mean 3 things.

Johan>>>>>>>>>>>>L and Light

Death Note is just an inferior ripoff of Monster
In the beginning was the Win, and the Win was with Gai, and the Win was Gai.

I don't hate DN, but Monster is far superior and Death Note is horribly overrated. I'd give Death Note a 3/5 because I at least liked L

And I don't hate all mainstream series. There are a number of Gundam series I like (but not SEED, dammit). I like Yu Yu Hakusho, Dragonball, and One Piece to name a couple. There's others too, but Naruto, Inuyasha and Bleach are terrible, and Death Note is mediocre. DN is worth seeing once, but it's not all that

You mean seeing the episodes once? Because i do have to agree with that. I've only ever seen every episode once but I know them all.

You're missing the point. What I'm saying is, it's a series that's fine to watch once, but it's not good enough to watch again and again

It's ironic you should say that Gyro. I have a habit of viewing/reading shows and books only once. Though I have read all the DN volumes, I still feel the excitement when watching the anime. It could be mainly b/c of L, but I think it's also that I just really like that series in general.

I checked out Monster. Aside from the 'beneficial' murders, the plot doesn't sound much like DN to me (sounds more complicated), but it seems interesting and worth checking out.

That's what I meant by "seeing the episodes once" gyro. I don't think I could watch them over and over because after seeing them once I have them memorized. It's just something my mind does, not something I try to do.

Nothing to do with memory.

I've memorized all of the original Star Wars movies, Monty Python and The Holy Grail, Spaceballs, and The Big Lebowski down line-for-line, but I still get enjoyment out of watching them because they are that good. In the anime/manga world JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Monster I find are like that (for a different reason than the movies of course), even after memorizing them, I still get a sense of excitement from them. Death Note is not like that for me, I was able to watch it through once, but on my second time around I just couldn't find myself that interested and gave up on it

Really? Once I memorize something, I lose all interest in seeing it again. Except for fullmetal. But even movies I watch, like I can't stand them once they're memorized no matter how good they are.
