Death Note

It has been some time since I've watch any Anime that has really interested me. I guess Neon Genesis Evangelion was the last one I really liked. Death Note has really caught my interest. A fascinating story that can be watched in it's entirety on Hulu, a great new way to watch "Television".

At the same time I've been watching this series, I've been listening to Valis by P.K. Dick in audio book format. Horselover Fat's friend Kevin quotes this bible verse at him in reference to Ferris F. Fremount, who is an amalgamation of Richard M. Nixon whom is an/the Antichrist unseated by the Dogan/V.A.L.I.S./Gnostics and it describes the story arc of Death Note and main protagonist/villain, Light Yagami very well:

"In the last days of those kingdoms, When their sin is at its height, A king shall appear, harsh and grim, a master of stratagem. His power shall be great, he shall work havoc untold; He shall work havoc among great nations and upon a holy people. His mind shall be ever active, And he shall succeed in his crafty designs; He shall conjure up great plans. And, when they least expect it, work havoc on many. He shall challenge even the Prince of princes And be broken, but not by human hands."
