Is it true? In my opinion yes. But what makes it so perfect?
First of all some will maybe say that you can not create a perfect anime there will always be some little mistakes. Well this could be true. However i can not really find "little mistakes" in this masterpiece. The story is unique, the soundtrack perfectly fits to the anime in almost every scene. Although Death Note also contains fantasy or supernatural elements i also have to say that Death Note is kinda realistic because it clearly shows in many scenes the human nature and the human weakpoints.
Some will maybe even say that Death Note has a Christian message because the main protagonist of Death Note eats from the forbidden fruit.
Conclusion
Death Note is the best anime ever(in my opinion) if you haven't watched it yet you better do it. It's a must see for every anime/manga fan.
