Death Note REDUB Project

Death Note REDUB Project

Project Overview

Death Note's dub is a bit jarring, and many people dislike it. I'd like to redub at least the first episode, and see how it turns out! It would make Death Note so much more amazing to have great voices with emotion...

Kanzo Mogi
open
Unpaid

Kanzo Mogi is one of the most dedicated members of the Kira investigation team, but also one of the most reserved. Mogi rarely speaks, even when someone presents an opinion he agrees with. Despite this, perhaps even because of this, he is a particularly good detective. He is shown to be an excellent actor, becoming an excited and cheery manager for Misa on demand and in seeming contradiction to his usual demeanor. He appears to be fond of Misa, as is seen when he worries that Misa's comments about Takada could get her killed.

  • Yes, sir, my apologies!

Ryuk

Unpaid

Ryuk is a bored Shinigami that drops a Death Note, a notebook that allows you to kill anyone simply by knowing their name and face, into the human world in order to have fun. It is picked up by Light Yagami, a young genius who uses it in an attempt to create and rule a world "cleansed of evil" as "God".

  • e human world is a boring place with boring people doing boring things.

  • As a rule, they say humans haunted by a shinigami have nothing but misfortune.

  • For me, apples are like cigarettes and liquor for humans. If I'm deprived, I go into withdrawals.

Near

Near, real name Nate River, is the young detective who succeeds L by default, defeating Light Yagami at the story's climax. He is the head of an organization created to catch Kira, the SPK. A placid character with a sharp tongue, he has white hair and wears pale clothes. He constantly plays with toys, building towers of dice and playing cards, and illustrating his exposition with small finger puppets and Legominifigs.

  • I've wanted to make him taste his own pathetic failure with all my heart.

  • You said she's smart, but it only means she got high marks. She's actually a stupid woman.

Teru Mikami
open
Unpaid

Teru Mikami is a criminal prosecutor, fanatical supporter of Kira, and the fourth Kira. Mikami is selected as the new Kira by Light, purely based on his intuition, when he needs a new Kira proxy to hide his identity. He has a sense of righteousness that stems from his childhood, though his perspective was warped over the years and he now believes the evil should be destroyed.Mikami wishes to punish those he considers to be evil, (which, to Light's dismay, includes unproductive people and reformed criminals), and worships Kira as a God. Mikami mutters the word "delete" repeatedly to himself while writing in the Death Note.

  • Who am I speaking to?

  • I'll do what he desires, I'll carry out Kira's duty.

  • Delete! Delete! Delete! DELETE! DELETE!!

Role assigned to: deleted3

Misa Amane is a popular Japanese idol. She has an extremely cheerful, upbeat manner. She is devoted to Light, who does not return her affections; instead, he manipulates and uses her. As a Death Note owner and the second Kira, she has the Shinigami Eyes, which allow her to view anyone's name and lifespan on sight, unless they possess a Death Note, in which case she can only see their names.

  • How could I ever face Light?

  • Sweets make you fat, so I'm cutting back.

Soichiro Yagami is Light's father and a police officer that initially leads the Kira investigation team that later joins with L. He is voiced by Naoya Uchida in the Japanese anime and Chris Britton in the English dub. When L begins to suspect Light of being Kira, Soichiro is unwilling to believe his son would be capable of such a thing.

  • I have a responsibility as a parent and as the chief of police.

  • The real evil is the power to kill people. Someone who finds himself with that power is cursed. No matter how you use it, anything obtained by killing people can never bring true happiness.

After L's death, however, he concedes the position to Near and leaves to hunt Kira through criminal means, eventually joining the American Mafia. He has blond hair, dresses extravagantly, and is rarely seen without a bar of chocolate. He wants to become Number One outdoing Near at any cost. He is obsessed with being the best.

  • Matt... I never thought you'd be killed... I'm sorry.

Role assigned to: decapit8tedmuffin

L Lawliet, known solely as L, is the world's greatest detective. He takes on the task of tracking down and arresting Kira. His disheveled appearance and odd behavior belie his genius. He lives in solitude, and only his manager Watari is able to contact him directly. L suspects that Light is Kira almost from the beginning, but cannot confirm his suspicions until his dying moments, when a victorious Light secretly reveals the truth.

  • There is no heaven or hell. No matter what you do while you're alive, everybody goes to the same place once you die. Death is Equal.

  • Sometimes, the questions are complicated - and the answers are simple.

  • I have two rules: First, I'm never wrong. Second, if I'm wrong... back to the first rule.

Watari is L's assistant, providing logistics to the investigation team. Before the team is formed, he is the only person who has seen L, and the only one capable of contacting L directly. Like L, he represents himself with an Old English "W" on computer screens. He is also a fatherly figure to L. On the surface he is Quillsh Wammy, a famous inventor and founder of Wammy's House, an orphanage for gifted children in Winchester, England. Watari is well trained in espionage and marksmanship.

Role assigned to: sonicshadow555

Matsuda has the drive to match the other members of the team, but his lack of experience sometimes hinders the investigation. He is described as a "typical young man" who is "easy to get along with" and feels "very excited about trends and gossip;" often listening in on Light's intimate conversations with Misa and later Takada for the sake of gossip rather than the investigation. He becomes quite fond of Light. As for Misa, Matsuda often shows that he is a massive fan of hers

  • You guys hit at the same time. Just call this one a draw.

  • Please listen, Ryuzaki, Misa-Misa is number one in the Eight-teen magazine's reader popularity poll!

Light Yagami

Light Yagami is a bored young genius who is dissatisfied with the Japanese justice system. When he finds the Death Note, he uses it to kill criminals in large numbers. His goal is to create a pure world without evil, which he intends to rule over as "the god of the new world". The name Kira, derived from the English word killer, is quickly popularized, as people start to deify the source of this tide of judgments.

  • I have the mind of a genius, and a strong sense of justice.

  • This world is rotten, and the people rotting it should be killed off, to cleanse this world.

  • I am Justice! I protect the innocent and those who fear evil. I'm the one that will become the god of a new world that everyone desires!!
