Gameplay

The game keeps the earlier title's koma deck building system, arranging battle koma, support koma, and help koma on a grid before matches. Battle koma are the characters players directly control and attack with, while support koma trigger a single assist move and then leave the field, and help koma apply passive buffs. The DS touch screen and microphone are used for some special attacks and menu navigation.

Premise

Death Note is represented entirely through support koma: Light Yagami and Ryuk share one panel, and L, Near, Mello, and Misa Amane each get their own, for five characters total. None of them can be selected as a controllable battle fighter, so Death Note's presence stays limited to one time assists rather than a starring role in combat.
