I can’t argue that the voices does make it sound more fan made then something official, cept for Steve oddly. It actually makes it a bit funny like a so bad it’s good English dub.
@@JakeYolk They are not the original animators, they are one of the companies that was hired in part of the animation, they were not in charge of the general animation nor did they have the artistic direction.
Probably for another anime parody. I’m guessing they’ll go for another anime that went mainstream, like Attack on Titan or My Hero Academia. Or maybe even something obscure depending on which weebs are working on the episodes…
But it would take so much time to develop and all! This whole short is under 8 minutes, a whole series with this quality would take quite a bit... I know I’m a fan of anime, but it’s a point worth bringing up. Just to remember that this stuff isn’t easy and would take time.
The best part of all of this is The Simpsons horn looks just like a Japanese family home despite it being made clear throughout the series they’re the classic All-American family 😂
Another reason is the voice actors are intentionally trying to talk like the Death Note English dub, you can compare how they talk here to the other segments or recent episodes. There's some intentional weirdness the VAs are tapping into to sound more like an anime dub.
Lisa’s justiceis is selfish many times, it’s a good idea about making her play Yagami Light. Lisa is indeed a person who hates killing people on the surface, but actually writes a lot of names in Death Note. After she killed Reaper, she had to replace Reaper. What a excellent ending it is.
@@multicatkid It's unknown what happens, but I like that fan-theory. On the one hand, it is terrifying as these sociopaths can go on tormenting people. On the other hand, in the context of the story it is kind of poetic that Light becomes the god he always wanted to be. Dark, but poetic.
Its like the story of a naive person and a robber baron. A robber barons cruelty and greed will eventually go away but a naive person’s cruelty will go on forever if they believe they are right.
Ooooo that explains why Deathnote was on the TV at work. There's no sound and I only caught a glimpse while collecting the dishes. I was wondering what the new reboot was lol.
@@DemonicRemption I thought they rebooted Deathnote on Fox. I didn't realize it was the Simpsons Halloween Special until seeing this clip. There was no sound, just picture so I didn't know they were the Simpsons.
Let's not kid ourselves. No matter the state of the Simpsons, the Treehouse of Horror episodes will never die as long as horror movies preside! (P.S. Hereditary parody when?)
Little refresher on how the actual death note works. Few rules from what I can remember since it's been so long. 1: a person's full name must be written in the notebook. No aliases allowed. In the event that the persons name and face do no match up, death will not occur. 2: if a cause of death is not written within thirty seconds after the writing of the name, the target will simply die of a heart attack. 3: users of the death note will not be allowed into heaven or hell when they die but will instead be sent to Purgatory. The realm in between heaven and hell. That's all I can remember
I think they added the: "Each death must be different rule," in the Simpsons version. Let's be real, no matter how creative you are, you'd eventually run out of different ways to kill someone, meaning you wouldn't even be able to reach 500, or 1000, much less cleanse the entire world, bruh not even a quarter 🤣.
@@SensitiveSavage That kind of makes it more intriguing to me. Like if you want to kill someone you have to earn it, think each kill through, think about which type of kill you might want to hang on to. If you waste heart attack for example. Now you've lost an indiscreet way of killing someone. Which will make planning stealth kills harder.
I hope this gets people interested to watch the original Death Note Anime if they haven't already as I'm quite sure there's quite a few people out there who don't realise this is a parody
I love this animation. Imagine if every now and then we get special episodes doing anime parodies animated by anime animators like this one. It would be perfect 😌👌
Lisa: “But Millions Of People Will Drown! Mr. Burns: “True, But I’ll Be Able To Dock By Yacht Outside My Kitchen.” You Could Just Move Your Kitchen To The Water And Build A Dock Connecting To It.
I wish they would’ve at least made Marge’s hair stay curly or wavy. Obviously there’s no way they could do the OG hairstyle but if it weren’t for the blue hair I feel like I wouldn’t know it was her
Somewhere Japanese production officials are putting Japanese subtitles in an American animated program designed to look like anime. Venturing into the more obscure there are likely VOA dubbing it into Japanese too.
She wrote that he dies in his sleep. She figured that he would just pass away peacefully… He falls asleep and lands on some hot coals, burning to death. Still… he does die in his sleep. So… can’t be upset about that.
I thought it was fan made from how Mr Burn's voice doesn't sound the same as he was in the show's earlier/better seasons. When I heard Lisa talk, I realized this was legit part of the recent seasons. That's amazing.

I'm shocked at how good the character designs look. It's cool to see the Simpsons in even a slightly more "realistic" style.
I believe a few of the original death note animators helped to fully capture the style

It's probably expensive
If this was a full-on series and I'm talking like animation and all I totally would be watching this and then when it's over watch it again
This is seriously so much better than the current show. If they made some kind of anime reboot, I'm all for it.
But it would take so much time to develop and all! This whole short is under 8 minutes, a whole series with this quality would take quite a bit...

@@tahraethestoryteller6079 already did multiple times XD I watch alot of anime
Side note. This is the first time Fox aired somewhat of an anime since Fox Kids/Fox Box. Pretty cool.
They really need to bring cartoons back to network TV like they had back in the day.
The best part of all of this is The Simpsons horn looks just like a Japanese family home despite it being made clear throughout the series they’re the classic All-American family 😂
What’s to know
Omg yeah, plus Homer is drinking sake instead of beer
I just took it as one of their ‘alternate universe’ type plots.

all charactes looks soo good especially lisa and marge

Homer and Marge look really good in this style
