Plot
The film begins in the Shinigami realm with an unnamed Shinigami seeking out Ryuk, complaining that the Shinigami realm is boring and in search of a good story. In return for the story, he brings him a Shinigami apple. Ryuk accepts a Shinigami apple for his tale, which turns out to be the first half of the Death Note anime series. After Ryuk is done telling the story, he tells himself (and reminisces to Light) that Light wasn't a god back then. He then realizes that the Shinigami has left and tells him, "Go ahead, why not? Maybe you'll meet an incredible guy and see something you'll never forget for the rest of your life. Wouldn't you agree…Light?"
New scenes and changes
The film mostly uses original scenes from the anime, but it includes some additional scenes and changes, mostly to replace longer events with shorter ones to fit the content into a feature-length film.
- The opening with Ryuk and the unnamed Shinigami is new for the film.
- There is a new scene where L shows Light the Second Kira videos in a private theater.
- There is a new scene involving Light gloating over L's grave.
- During the 26th episode, the death of Yotsuba member Reiji Namikawa is depicted as either a heart attack or something that causes bleeding from the mouth. However, in the film, he is killed by Light in a car accident after L's funeral.

- Many fans believe that the unnamed Shinigami may, in fact, be Light Yagami due to their many similar characteristics.[1][2]
