The Simpsons Death Note Special Characters
Death Note parody stills have been released on Twitter, with the DiscussingFilm account displaying each of the main characters in anime form.
It’s strange to see the Simpsons in anime style – done by DR Movie, the same company that worked on Death Note – especially without their trademark yellow skin. Though, of course, Bart as Ryuk is the most disturbing of all of them, and it’s both exciting and terrifying to think about how the episode will depict the events of the anime.

Though it’s not that difficult to imagine, as a clip from the episode has also been released on Twitter.
The video shows Lisa walking through what appears to be Springfield – though it appears to be more of a city – lamenting how humanity deserves to become extinct. The titular Death Note – dubbed the “Death Tome” in this context – then falls from the sky, stating that “Anyone whose name is written in this Death Tome will meet their death…and be dead.”
Finally, it appears that the plot of the episode will closely follow the anime, albeit with added Simpson’s humor, as evidenced by the episode poster.
The Simpsons Death Note special Synopsis
“In a book-themed trilogy, Marge’s resentment takes monstrous form, Lisa tries to save the planet through an anime murder spree, and in a segment that breaks, Matt Groening’s biggest rule: Homer learns he’s not the man he thought he was,” according to the episode’s official synopsis.
Twitter Users React to the Simpsons’ Death Note Parody
Seeing the Simpsons in such a different style will undoubtedly be jarring for some, particularly those who do not watch anime. Even people who watch anime enjoy making fun of it.
Naturally, many Twitter users have jokes about the released clips and stills, including acting as if the episode isn’t real and one user asking, “Why does anime always ruin everything?”
