Summary Mangafox writes : An overachieving 12th grader, Yagami Light is an aspiring young man who seems destined for success. Unfortunately, his daily habits bore his incredible intelligence--So when a strange black notebook fell from the heavens during his class, it wasn't long before he had taken it. In his room, he finds, to his horror/fascination, that the Death Note is real, and owned by Ryuk, a Shinigami (Death God). Any person's name written in the Death note will kill that person in 40 seconds.... without fail. With this supposed gift of God, Light swears upon his grave that he will 'cleanse' the world of the evil and needless people that inhabit it, thus creating a utopia for all. With the world's greatest detective, L, hot on his tail, will Light's ideals prove too fantastic to realize, or will he succeed bringing justice? |
Kumi's Death Note review:The manga and the anime are pretty much exactly the same, which is a rare luxury in most series. Nut the plot twists and turns so many times that it allways keeps you interested in what is going to happen next. Its an amazing series, one of my all-time favorites. The art is really good, and the plot is unpredictable. Its a bit dark for some people, but Kira/Light generally doesnt kill people that guesomely. I think that some people are just disturbed that the main character happends to become a serial killer no one can track. But either way, its definetly worth the watch. Its facinating trying to outwit the characters and discover their plans. |

Favorite character of the series: |

| "L" L. He's quirky, calm, brilliant, and eats nothing but sugar...constantly. He's the opposite needed to balance Kira, even though both are extremely similar. (Vash's Note) L.
