THIS WILL CONTAIN SOME SPOILERS: Well Death Note is a very good anime but I feel as though it really does make some really bad choices. The anime is unofficialy broken up in to three parts. The 1st part i felt was very good. It kept a very good tension with the search for the mysterious Kira aka Light Yagami. At one point it had me rooting so hard for Light to figure out this girls name so he could kill her, which i found terribly morbid but it was compelling enough to make me wish death on her. I also found the man leading the search for Kira, L, to be a very fascinating character id like to know more about. The 2nd part, Light actually joins up in the search for Kira, which i felt lost alot of the tension the series had been building up because they started looking for a different Kira. In the 3rd part, again spoiler warning, they kill off L, who i thought was an awsome character and needed some characterization but gets killed off. Then the worst part is that they replace him with some gay kid named Near who i found was trying to be L so fucking hard im surprised he didnt shit himself. Then the biggest insult is he actually catches Light when L could not. Seriously that little shit was nothing compared to L. I wanted him to die sooooo bad. but the ending was emotionaly satisfying shitty Near nonwithstanding. Overall a good anime that wastes a very interesting antagonist.
