DEATH NOTE LIGHT UP THE NEW WORLD SERIES

Japan's special death note task force, led by investigator Mishima (Higashide Masahiro), recovers one of the death notes after a mass murder incident in Tokyo. Ten years after the battle between Kira and L, six more death notes are dropped into the human world, claiming lives and wreaking havoc around the world. Light uses the death note to execute ruthless justice under the moniker Kira, but he meets his match in quirky genius detective L.

The original Death Note revolves around disaffected university student Light who discovers a soul reaper's notebook that allows him to kill individuals by writing their names within. Toda Erika reprises her role as Amane Misa, Nakamura Shido returns to voice Ryuk the reaper, and Fujiwara Tatsuya's Kira continues to have a significant presence in the film as his successor emerges to challenge the world order. Introducing new soul reapers and death note rules, the fantasy thriller brings more twists and turns, shocking revelations and stunning visuals into the Death Note universe.
