How nice will it be to write your arch enemy’s name on a supernatural book that will eventually lead to his/her demise? We know the first name that comes to mind will be someone with the initials ‘D.T.’! If only…
‘Death Note: Light Up The New World’ is the upcoming sequel to ‘Death Note 2: The Last Name’, which that takes place 10 years after the events of the first Death Note murders, a sensational story setting that involves a supernatural notebook ‘Death Note’ that kills anyone whose name is written in it.
This is the best time to catch up with the film series - Death Note, Death Note 2: The Last Name and spin-off L Change The World - which have been box office record holders for Japanese films in Singapore for the past 10 years, grossing over S$5.5 million combined.
There will be 2 different Death Note movie marathon screenings, specially for fans to relive the classic series. In the second marathon screening on 5 Nov, fans will be the first to catch the new sequel and they can also join in the fun at the cosplay party that day!

[About Death Note Light Up the New World]
10 years has passed since the Death Note murders and the final confrontation between Kira and L. Again, the shinigami sends Death Notes to the ground, and the world soon falls into chaos. A ripple of mass murders caused by the Death Notes occur in the United States, Japan and other countries around the world. Mishima (Masahiro Higashide), a member of the Death Note special task force, takes up the case with 6 other investigators.
Famous private detective Ryuzaki (Sousuke Ikematsu), who is the rightful successor of L, joins in the investigation. They discover that 6 Death Notes currently exist in the world. While they are investigating the case, cyber terrorist Yuki Shien (Masaki Suda) sends a computer virus throughout the world’s systems. The virus carries a video of Kira that says to surrender all 6 Death Notes...
Who will be the first to secure all 6 Death Notes?
