Oh the great Death note what hasn't been said about this anime?... To be honest Death Note in my opinion its everything people said and more.
The story starts out simple, but later you will have to pay a lot of attention to details as things become much more complicated and a bit harder to follow. That might be a problem for some people, but like a said if you really pay attention you'll be a lot more interested in this characters and get familiar with them. Personally, I found it to be really interesting the way the story unfold, and came to an end.

...
Art and Sound in Death Note its beautiful and dark really following the concept of the anime and giving this characters a perfect atmosphere. I really like the way the drawing from this characters was and how the attention to details was on both the characters and environments. The sound of Death note its made of Heavy Metal for both the openings and endings and ambient noises as background music. The music fits very well and give the anime a sense of sorrow and bleakness.
The Characters in Death Note are very interesting themselves, but mostly you'll be focusing on two characters Light Yagami AKA Kira and (L) both are very interesting characters, but I happen to like (L) more as a character. I found (L) to be very smart and kind of funny at times in a very sarcastic way. Also, he was a very determent guy who always came with great ideas and He wasn't afraid to face Kira himself. Light Yagami on the other hand was pretty much everything that (L) was and more. While (L) had a very lonely personality; Light was also a very lonely guy, but he was also very successful with chicks. I also like to add that I really hated Light, but for all the right reasons. He was using everyone around him and he didn't care about anyone. His sole purpose was to become the god of the new world he will create, and everyone who opposed will suffer the consequences. For all those reasons I hated this character, but in the way he did things made it all that much interesting.
I have to say I did enjoy this series a lot and most of this enjoyment came from the well crafted dialogue. Yes, there was also some action here and there, but what made this anime was its excellent and intelligent dialogue.
Overall, if there is anything wrong I can say about the show its probably the fact that there was a few episodes that weren't as good around the middle of the show, but that is a very minor complaint and nothing to take away from the experience. I also thought of that perfect world Light try to create and how wrong it will be because no matter how you try to change the world it will never be perfect. One example will be Religion and how each Religion wants to create this perfect world of peace, but there has been a lot of wrong with Religion as they have created a lot of wars, and also you see how each of then criticize each other even if they followed the same god.Good and Evil will always exist and corruption its something that will always exist, we see it in: Politics, Religion, Wars, TV, on the Streets its everywhere. I know I deviate from this review on this last paragraph but I wanted to compare real life experience with the concept of this anime. In conclusion, I really enjoyed this show and by the end of it I was very satisfied with what it has offered me and the way it concluded. We humans can make this a better world, but we can never change the nature of every individual.
