Oh, GEE, Today, We're gonna review
Death Note: Another Note
The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases
Oh, I didn't mention that I'm gonna start reviewing crap?
Well I am.
Well, first off, the cover looks fantastic. Yeah, I review covers. They're important.
A neat thing is that the LABB book looks awesome, and a bit freaky, when you take off the cover. Why's that important?
To scare your friends. :3
The cover's a bit shifty, though, and it doesn't align properly unless you make it align properly, but that's not a big deal, as you can always take it off.
Cover - 10/10
So, this book is written by Nisio Isin. He's a great authour from what I've seen, and this book doesn't disappoint.
(Turn Nisio Isin backwards)
The basic plot is that Naomi Misora, a Japanese FBI Agent has been put on a sort of "vacation". Since it's pretty early in the book, I'll tell you why.
She didn't shoot a killer.
The killer was like, nine or something.
So, yeah.
The nine year old got away.
A few minutes after she gets up, Naomi notices that her laptop is on, which, mind you, wasn't on when she got home. Naomi had gone to bed immediately, without even taking off her jacket or anything.
The email was from her boyfriend, Ray Penber, who admired her deeply.
Or so it seemed.
This email wasn't actually from Ray. Someone had hacked Ray Penber's email to send the message.
This person was none other than the great Armchair detective L L^&A^%&L$%&I%$&E$%T.
Why'd I cenbsor all that?
Not everybody knows, although they can prob'ly see it anyways.
Anyway, in the email, L tells Naomi that it wasn't actually Ray typing the email, it was himself, and that he had hacked into her laptop as well. L had to hack into it to turn it on and open it up to the internet emails.
The message said to break into a chatroom at like, 8:00AM or something, and that they could only talk for five minutes.
And that she had to destroy the laptop she had bought only a month ago after the conversation.
Real nice.
Anyway, Naomi breaks through the firewall she and L talk.
Well...
L talks. Naomi, not having a microphone installed, had to type.
L tells Naomi about some Crossword puzzle sent to the police from the Wara Ningyo Murderer. No one could solve it, and L had gotten a copy of it.
He solved it.
The puzzle, when finished, gave the location of the first murder.
After a while, during the first investigation, when inside the house, Naomi is talking to L on her cell phone. His voice is again disguised.
After the conversation, which was on speakerphone (stupid Misora), Naomi looks around the room for something (like L said) that should be there, but wasn't.
Then it hit her.
Under the bed. One of the most obvious spots.
Naomi kneeled down and, as she did, a arm had popped out from under the bed. Then another. Then the entire person.
It was a he. He was dressed in a long-sleeved (white) shirt and had blue, baggy jeans.
If you had watched the Anime before hand (or read the Manga), you would know this to be L.
Or you'd think.
We won't get to that later.
Heh..
Won't.
Naomi asks him what he was doing under there and he repeated the same thing that Cell Phone L had said. Naomi thought he was listening in on the conversation.
*flips through book*
(Not really. It's at school. razz )
At what Naomi and Rue (Field L) Ryuzaki believe to be the fourth murder, they both had to stay in separate rooms. Disguised. As what they believe to be the victims.
Lol, I lefted youz with a cliff hanga.
Plot - 10 / 10.
Originality - 9 / 10. The ending is why I deducted a point.
Detectivey-ish Goodness - 10/10.
Action - 7 1/2 / 10. There was a fight in an alley between Naomi Misora and Beyond Birthday (the murderer, who we all find out abut on page one), and the ending was pretty bad @^&, but it wasn't enough for a Nine or Ten.
Overall - 9 1/2 / 10. The only thing lacking was the Action, but only barely
Alright. Thanks for reading my first review ever.
