Producer Roy Lee announcing<\/a> that the prospective American Death Note movies will definitely be rated R seems ridiculous to me. The three Japanese live-action Death Note movies were not mature-audiences-only features. The anime TV series was (Japanese) all-ages accessible. And lest plenty of people forget, Tsugumi Ohba & Takeshi Obata’s original manga was published in a children\u2019s magazine. Ohba & Obata’s Death Note manga serialized in Weekly Shounen Jump next to comic series including Katekyo Hitman Reborn! and Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro that have received kid-friendly anime TV series adaptations. There’s no logical reason or need for Death Note to be provocative enough to warrant an R rating.<\/p>\n
