Raito is a nerd. The nerd voice is fine.

I don't like his Japanese VA, if only because he shares a VA with Tamaki from Ouran. It makes it that much funnier to watch with that knowledge.

I don't really like Light's English voice. :/ His VA has the "script-reading" voice that a lot of "This miracle product worked for me!" actors have and as someone who's been in theater for most of her life, that grates on me.

Japanese VA's might have that same sound to their voices, but seeing as how I'm not too familiar with the language itself, it's more difficult for me to tell.

But it could be worse, I guess. I didn't get to hear much of L's at all, and while it wasn't awful, it didn't really seem to suit him.

I have seen the ending. It's most worth it, I can tell you. I dunno if there's gonna be another season, though.

I like the manga more than the anime. Also Near's voice in the anime was quite suprising and made me stop watching it. (the japanese anime)

I think they're 12 volumes.

Apparently there is volume 13 with special stuff in it.(spoiler?)

I don't think you can get the limited edition version of vol 13 anymore though.

Not really sure if I should have bothered adding these links...

Yeah the links are just information on the 13th volume. It just explains the story and stuff - I think. I haven't read it but it seems to exist.

It doesn't SEEM to exist. It DOES exist. There was a topic about this on the forums when that was released. If you look around, you can find translations for it, too.

37 episodes, actually. If you're on about the anime, that is. I think they're gonna make more, too.

I didn't noticed I actually posted some boring post on the topic about volume 13 and L's real name. I probably thought it was filled with spoilers. I'm am so weird, volume 13 is actually new information to me.
