Deathnote is one of the most intense thriller/suspense anime you could ever watch. The stroyline is nothing short of genious that will leave you truely astound. Its an on the edge anime that continues to reinvent itself as the story progresses, however it may feel that it may be a little streched nearing the last few episodes. The plot unfolds at a steady pace making it easy to follow. Overall Deathnote felt like a grandmaster chess game in anime form, one the that is really stimulating and nailbiting. It is an anime that should not be missed.
