Coming into Death Note the only thing I knew about the show was the Potato chip scene and the game of Cat and Mouse between by L and Light. Something I had also heard about the show was the excellent writing and I was not disappointed.

First off the characters in this show are outstanding. Lets talk about the main character Light. Lights wits are no doubt incredibly high as the way he is able to throw off the task force and L each time is nothing short of spectacular and clever. He is a sociopath but you cant help but root for him as ... L is hot on his trail. Next is L, who in my opinion is one of if not the smartest character in anime History. All of the breaks in the case L makes on trying to catch this killer who goes by Kira left my jaw dropped each time. Those are the two characters in the show that made the most impact to me and seem the most relevant to the story.

The story does an excellent job of confusing and keeping me on my toes the whole time. You are never quite sure what will happen next but usually it does not disappoint. I love the way the show uses audio cues to show us a point of interest. This is something that helps the story greatly as it enhances what the character is revealing giving importance to the point.

I don't think i'll give a synopsis of the plot as better ones are out there then ones I can write. I will apologize right now for how jumbled this review is but I wanted to give some of the main things that I liked about the show into this review.

I wish my man could've pulled through but you know.
