    My parents decided to watch episode 2 of Death Note while I wasn't looking... aaaaaand, they said it was brainwashing me to... what did they say?? *thinks* Oh, that it was brainwashing me to take care of all my problems by killing people or something. Something about trying to figure everything out by myself in violent ways, not contributing to my overall mental health, and blah blah blah...(something like that) oh well. I'm not that crazed about Death Note (unlike some people...) But still, I only get to watch 30 minutes of anime a week on Saturday... and now I can't. I kinda wish Bleach was still on... *sigh* Oh well.
    What do you think???

    well thats a bit depressing for you, but you should have your parents watch the first episode before they make that conclusion

    I think they permanently hate it now... just because Light can kill people by writing their names on a notebook and it's a little more bloody than the manga...*sigh* I don't think they'll give Death Note a second chance, you know??

    Sure, DN is darker, but Bleach could.. lead impressionable youths, such as Maiwyn, into thinking they can solve all their problems by slashing away their enemies with humoungous swords!! O:

    Srsly though, your parents are too strict. >_> What are you, 11? I dread to think what their reaction would be if you were to watch live action thriller/horrors.

    Your parents seem very stubborn. lol They (I'm assuming) let you watch Bleach... an anime that shows that if you want to get rid of someone, you hack them to bits, and always. Always. It's the same thing.

    If your parents let you watch that and not Death Note... I don't know what to think. LOL

    Anyway... Tell them to research before they jump to conclusions. And what's up with the "improving/being good for mental health" crap? It's a show ffs. >_>

    Death Note isn't that bad... I mean it's Tv14 on AS right? The concept is different as far as killing, but like Darky said, it's still killing.

    Now if they didn't let you watch Claymore or Elfen Lied, that's a bit more understandable... >_>

    ...ELEVEN!? Do I sound eleven to you!?
    Anyway, I think it's because DN's set in a more realistic (excluding the existence of the Death Note and shinigami and whatnot) time period with more realistic mental issues (I think). The probable reason my parents let me watch Bleach is that I would never be able to pick up a humoungous sword, let alone hack someone to pieces with it. XD
    Plus, I think Ryuk scared them. XD They're not used to seeing blue-skinned shinigami on their TV screen.

    52 episodes before Death Note came around. Is it just me, or are you guys biased against Bleach? It's not that bad.

    ...I have to agree on the hacking them to bits thing.
    I don't know... I think my parents probably think I'll start creating my own personal Death Note or something, or start wishing people dead.

    I watch DN when I get a chance , trust me I'm seen stuff with way more things that may not be suitable for youth .


    DN is just fine .

    But once I was at my Aunt's house , my little sis and little cousin came into the room and flipped on the TV and DN was on and I was sitting a few feet away , doing my homework , but a few things came on and I turned around . I was like
    WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU WATCHING THAT FOR ? YOU ARE TOO YOUNG !! etc .




    But I totally agree libregkd .

    Which I agree with, btw.

    Not at all. x3 I meant that your parents were sheltering you as if you were an 11 year old.
