Death Note Relight 1: Visions of a God

Death Note: Relight is a feature length film series that encapsulates the first half and second half of the Death Note TV series into two separate films. The films were made for people who had not seen the Death Note Anime series.

Death Note Re-Light 1
The film begins in the Shinigami realm with an unnamed Shinigami seeking out Ryuk, in search of a good story. Ryuk accepts a Shinigami apple for his tale, which turns out to be the first half of the Death Note Anime series. There's a new scene involving Light Yagami gloating over a grave, but otherwise it's just a heavy edit of the TV series.

Death Note Re-Light 2
The film contains the story of the second half of the Death Note Anime series which tells the story of the Near/Mello ark after L’s death. The opening of the film shows L about to get ready to tell the story of the event that happened after his death.
