Heres the link heads up some pages are jumbled and repeat themselves but if you keep reading down you'll get to the correct order.
My spoiler review
My thoughts is it was pretty interesting and I enjoyed it. So we get a 10 year time skip to our current time period with more surveillance making it harder to be kira. Ryuk goes back into the human world to find a new person to be kira and unlike light with his god complex jumps at the opportunity to use and monopolize the power of the book he decides to sell it and get rich. And if the guy has morals it's also smart that the auction eventually only becomes between countries and the winning country and cant really use it to lord over other countries since they know they have it. Sadly the protagonist of the oneshot dies due to a bs rule thr shinigami king makes up of you can't sell death notes. Also Near gassed him up being smart I can't say what he did was particularly clever ryuk was the one who told him the same tricks cant work again. Only reason I think it's okay is I wished it introduced interesting concepts and ideas to get hype for a potential sequel. Even tho I liked the story I don't think it was innovative enough. We do see Near trying to work on something to recognize shinigami could be interesting if it gets a sequel. Also thought it was hilarious they had trump in this I could see him trying negiote with Ryuk for the death note like he wont take it as sale but wants it bu Ryuk giving it to himself trump with a death note would hilarious it would just be all the people we publically see argue with him and doubt he would hide the fact he has it.
Some questions I had was
Ryuk says in this sequel that hes coming to the human world to get apples we know he comes to the human world and gives a death note for his entertainment. Maybe he meant he wanted a person keep him on earth to get apples for a long time.
I also don't get why Ryuk is giving the death note to kids this time going younger and giving to a middle school student. Seems he might of been interested because they said he was smart and maybe hes looking for another light. Just doesnt make sense if you want a person to use the death note in interesting ways an adult would be a better option unless he picks people he knows will fail. Seems with Ryuks hiatus of 10 years in earth after the oneshot he actively looking for a new person to be kira again. I'm not sure how much care if any Ryuk puts into who he gives it to. I guess there will be a string of short lived kiras till he finds the person hes looking for.
I don't get why the protagonist asked Ryuk to take the death note and come back in 2 years. I'm assuming he waited 2 years I guess maybe because middle schoolers cant have bank accounts in Japan maybe? And I'm assuming he asked him to hold the death note till then since he didn't want anything to do with it until it was time to sell it.
I don't remember if the first series spoke of there being a shinigami king but why does he care that death note is sold. If it's an issue that death notes shouldnt be publicized then Ryuk already messed up with light where a handful people know of death notes and can spread its info. Also don't get why Ryuk didn't tell the kid the new rule he knew about it before havent the death note returned a second time and we can see he was considering in the end telling him. Seems like a dumb plot thing to not tell him in the end.
