Death Note II: The Last Name (2006)

The second part of Death Note picks up right where the first left off. A second death note and a second Kira have surfaced. L suspects Light is the first Kira, but since Light is the son of the head of the Kira task force this proves awkward. The two Kiras start working together and there are twists and turns throughout the film.

While the first death note was more about Kira, this one pits L and Light directly against each other as they are working in close proximity. There are lots of unexpected twists. There are also two Shinigami's who surprisingly enough are not all that distracting considering that they are the only cgi in the film.
