DEATH NOTE had a nice ending and it made sense , but the second half lacked excitement and interest when it came to the main character. Everything that happened in the end was alluded to before hand ,but that part of Death Note story wasn't developed and delivered in an exciting format that allowed you to really feel the characters. Near, Mello, Matt, Mikami, Takada didn't have a grasp on the audience the way the earlier characters did , but it wasn't too bad. It was kinda bad though. Lol
ot: DB actually had great plot and storytelling and the interests and suspense in it was usually high, it had the feel of dying to see Kakashi's face, you didn't want to miss your chance at seeing an episode. DB didn't have any mystery in it for the audience because everything was pretty much explained by the characters, but the storytelling was great and the characters other than the Zfighters who were thrown to the background , had pretty good development. Vegeta was developed greatly though I think.
