If you loved Death Note Relight 2: L's Successors, try Death Note Relight 1: Visions of a God

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Tetsuro Araki, and they both carry the atmospheric, cult, devastating, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Crime / Drama / Fantasy / TV Movie / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Death Note Relight 2: L's Successors, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Death Note Relight 1: Visions of a God is

Japanese suburbia. Perpetual dusk. A notebook falling. Light discovers the Death Note and begins his grim experiment, while the detective L closes in. Each player maneuvers, as the body count rises. A dark anime remix of a very familiar tune.
