Summary:
Yagami Light is an ace student with great prospects, who's bored out of his mind. One day he finds the "Death Note": a notebook from the realm of the Death Gods, with the power to kill people in any way he desires. With the Death Note in hand, Light decides to create his perfect world, without crime or criminals. However, when criminals start dropping dead one by one, the authorites send the legendary detective L to track down the killer, and a battle of wits, deception and logic ensues...
the plot is well written. the battle of mind and strategy is awesome too. i never thought of watching this anime, but turn out it is quite good. the progression of light to cold blooded murder is intriguing. i really wish that someone will beat sense into him back or just give a punch to his face since he is really annoying. his justice is kinda screwed up too. as for the episodes, there's some that contain entirely of conversation. some people may think it is a bit slow, but for me, i don't find it to be boring, it just necessary for the plot. recommended to everyone.
