Mixed Feelings
I'm about 14 years late to the Death Note party and a lot of what I would like to say about the show has already been said a million times, so I'll keep this very brief.

I think there's a 10/10 idea in here that is watered down by approximately 15 episodes worth of unnecessary padding. The concept is stretched way beyond it's maximum capacity and as the story starts to drag, the audience's eye will start to shift towards the absurdity of all that's going on and their suspension of disbelief will really be put to the test. Thanks to all the padding, some of the characters, which could have been fine as minor story pieces, also end up really overstaying their welcome and start to get on your nerves due to their one-note nature.

This could have been great, but it ends up being merely a "mixed bag" for me. Unfortunate.
