Understanding Disaster, Part 1: Death Note and the Cyclical Apocalypse
This is the beginning of a 4-parter. I’m not the kind of person with the editing patience to sit down and edit a full 40-60 minute session, so here it is in parts.

Stray Notes:
- I foreshadowed this on Twitter. The key word is ’tenuous’
- I’m using the term language pretty loosely here, so WATCH OUT
- Theoretical, non-prescriptive, I am a hack, reader-response criticism, yeah, yeah, same old song and dance routine
- Massive shoutout to Reaper_V / Momon_IV for pointing me in the direction of some very useful eschatological summaries, I hugely apprecite it buddy!
- I’m aware Obha and Obata tend not to really mean that much more into their work than surface-level, but Death Note does bear a lot of merit in understanding and studying because it is heavily studied, if at least because of how ridiculously famous it is in terms of general media, and understanding why or how is pretty important. Whether you agree or disagree with me is really the point
