Death Note

Goof: At the beginning of the recap, the first confrontation between L and Light is shown. However, in the dubbed version, L's scrambled voice is not the same as the one L actually uses and is instead merely a different sounding voice. Though if one listens carefully, the voice is the same one normally used, but is missing the "deep sounding scrambled" voice that plays alongside it.

Goof: At the end of the series recap, a farewell message from L to his successor is shown typed out in English. However, the message is not grammatically sound, with the opening sentenced seen as: "The following is the record which contains everything I have investigated on Kira Incident." In the Viz dubbed version, the footage is not changed, but they did make an attempt to fix the "Engrish error," having L narrate the message and reading the opening sentence as: "The following is the record which contains everything I have investigated on the Kira Incident."

Altered Scene: The Task Force The Task Force's conversation following the series recap is much shorter in the anime, cutting out some of the less significant details. Near the start of the scene, the manga has Mr. Yagami address how he hid the fact that L has died to the higher-ups for the sake of keeping the Japanese Police involved in the Kira Investigation. Later in the scene, the manga has Aizawa bring up the point of Rem's sudden disappearance after L and Watari's deaths. Mr. Yagami adds on, mentioning how even Rem brought up the possibility of there being multiple notebooks in the Human Realm. Aizawa continues, saying how Kira must have been able to gain information on L to be able to kill him. However, Matsuda brings up that with the shinigami now gone, it is difficult to confirm anything. Light closes the scene in the manga, saying how although a shinigami was the source of all this trouble, Kira is the one who took the notebook from the shinigami in the first place. His father agrees, saying how they will definitely capture Kira in the end.

Listen Closely: Upon being asked to live with Light, Misa claims victory over Kiyomi, Yuri and Mayu, women Light has previously dated. Yuri only appears in episode 4: Pursuit while Kiyomi first appears in episode 14: Friend. Mayu, on the other hand, was never shown and is only mentioned in this episode.

Altered Scene: Ryuk on the Roof Ryuk's conversation with Light about how the death of everyone in Light's way will only lead to boredom has been relocated from a street corner accompanied by Misa in the manga, to a dramatically lit roof-top in the anime. While on the roof, Light begins to kill off various criminals, finally taking back his role as Kira. In the manga, it is also on the street corner that Light asks Misa to live with him. On the other hand, the manga has him bring up the idea at the local coffee shop.

Altered Scene: Aiber In the anime, Aiber suddenly dies in front of what is suggested to be his wife and child. The manga, however, has him slowly die of liver cancer with his family at his side in a hospital in Paris, France.

Altered Scene: Yotsuba During the montage of deaths, the anime actually shows each of the remaining Yotsuba members realizing the errors of their ways and deciding to start their company anew only to all die in their meeting room. The manga, however, mentions through narration how they all died of heart attacks on the same day eventually resulting in the fall of Yotsuba Group's stock.

Moved Scene: The scene covering Near's story during the montage explaining the events preceding the time skip in the series is moved to the beginning of the next episode.
