Death Note Episode 4

If you want to learn another language, go for it! I have a 73-year-old relative that’s learning French just because she can. Age is just a number and old is a mindset.

Personally, I really prefer the japanese subs :). Also I minored in Japanese at uni and I would totally encourage you to try just learning hiragana! Although my advice would be learning from Anki decks rather than duolingo... It's a bit difficult to explain, but the Japanese duolingo (last time I used it ~1 year ago) give furigana which make it impossible to do memory exercises... Also they emphasize kanji stroke order which can be bad if you aren't interested in practicing writing. It's decent for grammar forms though.

What's Psycho-Pass about? I like to describe it as "Minority Report" meets "Se7en."

Aaagh Light is so captivating as a character, even though he is evil at times, he is also so interesting. Don't worry too much if you don't get the rules of the death note exact, in time he uses them and they explain how he did it.

When it comes to reacting shows. I think it is okay to pause/rewind when you have something to say or just lost your focus on the show. If I wanted a totally uninterrupted viewing experience I would be watching the show by myself. I do still realize there can be people that will be annoyed if there are too much pausing but I do not think you are anywhere near that. In fact I would prefer even more discussion and theorization when reacting to shows.

36:14 Light/Kira has already shown himself to not care about innocent lives in his willingness to immediately write the name of L 's impersonator on TV.

Kira is light the owner of the deathnote, L is the detective we see hunched behind the screen. I see why you are getting confused with L and Light sharing the same letter so it may be useful for you to refer to light as kira going forward.

32:59 The author of death note also wrote Bakuman, which is a manga about making manga (pretty different vibe from this). Manga author might get some suggestions from editors, but most manga are written by one person so there's no writing team. Btw Aot is written & illustrate by isayama, it's his only work and I think recently he said he doesn't think he could write something like Aot ever again.
