The L / Light mind battles were pretty boring as well. It was all these constant face shots accompanied by "BLAH BLAH DICK". Man, I was so bored. ~
Death Note = 16 pages of BLAH BLAH DICK, 2 pages of stuff happening.
So I can imagine the anime will translate to 2 minutes of OP/EDs, 19 minutes of BLAH BLAH DICK and 3 minutes of stuff happening.
