New DEATH NOTE Fashion Collection Channels Misa’s Gothic Aesthetic

Japanese alternative fashion brand QOOZA has revealed a new collaborative fashion line based on the hit psychological thriller series “DEATH NOTE.”
The latest collection focuses heavily on the distinct gothic aesthetic of the popular idol character Misa Amane.

“DEATH NOTE” is a highly successful manga written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata.
The gripping story follows a brilliant high school student named Light Yagami who discovers a supernatural notebook capable of killing anyone whose name is written within its pages.

Misa plays a crucial role in the plot, earning a dedicated fanbase not only for her fierce devotion to Light Yagami but also for her iconic gothic and punk inspired wardrobe.

This new line aims to seamlessly translate her dark, striking presence into real-world fashion pieces.
Fans can expect a mix of heavy faux leather, delicate lace, and bold graphics across the four available items.
Let’s take a closer look at the products featured in this gothic collaboration!
- “QOOZA × DEATH NOTE / MISA LASE LEATHER DRESS”
- Price: 15,400 yen (approx. $100 USD / £80 GBP)
