Story: Death Note has definitely one of the BEST storylines I've ever seen in an anime, almost every single episode was very intense and incredible and would leave me wanting to see more. The plot twists thrown and the battles of intelligence between the two main characters was outstanding and the way they would try to regain control was definitely something worth watching. Sadly the last few episodes were not as good but they were still above average.
Art: For being such a dark show Death Note's animation was REALLY well made and it was very detailed and neat. Ryuk's face always pops up in my mind every now and then, it was so well made! ^_^ The way the camera would some in the note writing scenes was also really good and fun to watch.
Sound: I usually never pay attention to the soundtracks but this show definitely knew when to play the right songs at the right times, like when Light is writing names down and the evil music is playing, how can you not love that? Miyano Mamoru really outdid himself playing Light, and I'm a sucker for Aya so I also loved Misa >_>
Character: This is IMO one of the best things on the show, Light vs L is definitely something that I will always remember, the epicness of it was just of the charts. Light has great personality change from his regular high school days to his slow turn into a more maniac character, Light is one of the best at being evil too. L was a character that had a more silly side but also a very serious and cool side when facing Kira. The other characters in the show are also developed quite nicely (how could I forget to mention Misa?)
Enjoyment: Boy I had a blast watching this show, it left me almost sweating at times because of how intense the story and developments were. This show is definitely one of my favourites.
Overall Death Note is an amazing show that EVERYONE should watch and not miss, the whole genius vs genius battles between Light and L are something outstanding and I dare say was something perfect. This is one show I definitely will never forget.
