Everything about this anime exceeds all others. The storyline, the plot, the characters... they're all so original!!! Watch the anime (37 episodes) AND read the manga (12 volumes), doesn't matter which one you read first, they're both just so good! ^.^
Light Yagami, 17, is a top-scoring scoring pre-Uni Japanese student, and he's bored out of his mind... until he finds the Death Note, a notebook of death. Anyone who's name is written in the notebook dies, and Light vows to use this power to rid the world of evil, as the Shinigami Ryuk watches over him, unseen to other humans. Only once all these well-known
...
criminals start dying, the nation comes up with a huge rumour... that a god called 'Kira' is finally passing righteous judgement on the wrongdoing in their world. But this case catches the eye of the mysterious detective L - nobody knows his real name or face, but he's the greatest detective to have ever lived - and he has vowed to hunt Kira down and put an end to the murders. And so an all-out battle between the anonymous 'Kira' and 'L'. Who will win? Who is truly the meaning of justice?
It's riveting. Once you've started, you can't stop. 10/10 for everything on the ratings, but if I could mark above, who knows when the noughts would end... because it just overthrows everyone's expectations COMPLETELY. If you don't read this, or watch it, you'll regret it.
