@gustavoturner The FSC might be interested in this one. Australia is carrying out a consultation regarding censorship.

Obviously, Dio immediately comes to mind when I think of this anime, lol.

is not to be confused with Transformers, the show with the giant intelligent space robots which turn into vehicles, lol. The a near the end is also deliberate.

I don't really see the value in smartwatches, to be honest, when you already have a computer in your pocket.

Now that there are smartwatches, next there should be a badge you tap then say "Hello Enterprise" into, lol.

Be careful, if someone drops a nuke, you might end up with a guy in a wheelchair with powerful psychic powers and a guy wearing a metallic helmet terrorizing you, lol.

In , mankind's greatest enemy are cockroaches which evolved into big muscular men, lol.

"A Māori mum misidentified as a trespassed “thief” at a Rotorua supermarket trialling facial recognition technology says she felt “racially discriminated” against and embarrassed during the “horrible” birthday incident."

"Last week Commissioner Michael Webster launched an inquiry into Foodstuffs’ facial recognition trial to monitor whether it complied with the Privacy Act and was effective in reducing harmful behaviour at those supermarkets.

In a written statement, a spokesperson from the Commissioner’s office said he was concerned about “bias and accuracy” and facial recognition technology (FRT) not being “a proven tool” to reduce harmful behaviour in supermarkets."

How to make Light roll in his grave: Get his notebook, get the Death Eraser (which was removed after the first short story), and rub all the names out, lol.

Death Note wasn't bad for an anime without any lolis, huh? Lol. Okay. Joking. I think it's fine to have a few more serious anime (although, being "serious" is not an excuse for a story being boring or lazy, ahem). I think having multiple styles is alright.

I saw this anime a long time ago, lol. I saw something which brought it to mind.

The power really went to Light's head, huh, lol.

In the original short form of Death Note, there is actually a Death Eraser which brings people back to life after someone rubs names out with it. He removed this element from the main storyline (which was written afterwards), probably because that one is more serious and it would be less impactful to have random characters coming back to life.

I don't think I'd want to be the one to try to arrest an apparently god-like being who remotely kills people from afar through some magical power (and who might not even be human), lol.

You kind of have to admire the guy deciding not to create a Death Note 2, despite knowing that it would probably sell really well. A sequel would probably be far worse, lol.

The example of higher ice cream sales being "linked" to higher crime rates is used in introductory data science / introductory psychology as an example of how an apparent correlation doesn't necessarily mean there is a meaningful link. A possible third variable which might affect both is the weather.
