The greatness of this anime can be found in many ways of viewing. Death note is one of these anime shows which aren't limited to the borders of one particular genre. And this is that magical place in art life where we can find real and persistent enjoyment. Innovative, wonderfully passionate characters, smart plot, thrilling sometimes pretty depressive atmosphere, astonishing soundtrack etc..
Even the last thing that I've mentioned can be interpreted as medium between high inteligence of the main character and his very human, natural efforts to be global alfa male. It's really not that hard to find part of ourselves in the God kissed
...
character Light Yagami, although the fact he's mass murderer and sociopath. It's just natural that the only human being who is actually able to oppress this evil power must be just another sociopath- L. They are very similar, for example, both of them are addicted to some kind of catalyst. In L case is everything eatable with dangerously high sugar level, on the other side Light needs to be admired and dreaded as every great dictator who loves applause maybe even more than the extraordinary fact that he has ultimate power. But in this story are more characters who were punched by God complex. Principal similarity between them and other unusual characters lies in the unceasing attempts to solve problems and mysteries, especially in the Light case, these problems happen to be much more catastrophic for his persona than for others, but this is not rule in a real life and it's not dogma in Death note. Despite this likeness they all have something very special, what makes their personality unique.
There's no need to be worry about boredom in this anime. Dynamics is almost perfect mainly because we are invited to watch megalomaniac heroic battle between good and evil from the first line, since we are reading in the minds of both sides of coin.
Also there are so many things which can possibly go wrong, people are quite predictable but their revelations on the screen are sometimes rather shocking.
The animation is also hardcore. The animators created a piece very playful, stylish, closely connected to the psychological apects of characters. Death note is one enjoyable, inspiring show with little flaws.
Now, I'm not going to fall into pointing at the negative attributes of this anime, because all those thing I've written about can be peacefully taken as a bunch of disadvantages, anyway.
