Death Note The Musical
RcornellJr for Ryuk
Ryuk is different from most Shinigami in that he does not want to simply pass time away in the Shinigami Realm but find something to relieve his boredom, and he is unaffected by the mocking he receives from other Shinigami for it. Ryuk should have a deep and raspy voice. You will need to speak and sing a lot for this role.
Speaking Lines
"I've had it up to here with writing human names in the Death Note already!" Exasperated and loud.
"You know it ain't no normal Note, don'tcha?" This line should be said with an amused tone.
"As for me, my heart’s pounding, I’m totally into where this is going now." This line is said with a darker tone.
Singing Examples
"They’re only human, they don’t see. Who they are is who they’ll always be. Only human, after all." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrZolM3uCds [0:59-1:09]
"Except for Kira, Kira, your brand new name; The masses cheering, Kira. Don’t know it's Light Yagami, playing his dangerous game;" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFh0_c8fSLs [0:33-0:55]
