WE WATCHED DEATH NOTE AS GIRLS IN 2025… Did It Age Well or Get Worse?! | Anime First Impressions | Girly Anime Podcast

Death Note is turning 20 years old, and we finally sat down to watch the first two episodes for our Anime First Impressions series. In this series, we watch the first 2 episodes of an anime we haven't seen before and decide: is it love at first sight, kiss-on-the-first-date material, a second date, or are we ghosting? As two anime girlies, we had to ask… did Death Note predict 2025 internet incel culture?! We recap Light Yagami’s wild god complex, Ryuk’s little apple addiction, and talk about how this dark psychological thriller hits very differently in today’s online culture. If you grew up avoiding “dude anime” or thought Death Note was just edge-core boy propaganda, this episode is for you. Should it be a staple for every anime fan (including the girlies) or is it officially outdated?💖 Anime for Blondes drops new episodes every Monday, plus bonus episodes on the last Wednesday of every month. 💬 Tell us in the comments: should we keep watching Death Note or move on to something lighter?Anime for Blondes is created and produced by Becca Reagan and Alisa Patience, bringing you the ultimate female-gaze takes on anime like DanDaDan, Witch Watch, The Apothecary Diaries, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Solo Leveling!Music by Haley Hernandez @ virtuallyyourshaleyFollow along with us on...Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/animeforblondespod/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@animeforblondespodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5djhK91vdjYkvzw7Xs5IgX?si=fccb824f5f254353Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnimeForBlondesPod Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anime-for-blondes/id1770563703#deathnote #deathnotemanga #deathnotecosplay #deathnotelight #deathnotemisa #animepodcast #AnimeFirstImpressions #AnimeForGirls #animeforblondes #lightyagami #ryuk #DeathNoteReview #psychologicalanime #anime2025 #WomenInAnime #FeminineGazeAnime #animediscussion #animediscussiongroup #darkanime #darkanimevibes #anime #animegirl #animelover
