My Review:
Great series! Really worth your time to watch. Animation Nicely done, nothing really special but it just fits in perfect. Almost a perfect anime, Many different characters are remarkable. Light with his pragmatic justice and L, Mello, Near representing the “true justice”, makes you think what side you prefer. Yup you will be confused whose the antagonist and protagonist in the series, as the flow of the story continue you will hate characters you love and love the characters you hate. But the ending is a slight twist. hehehe some will hate it, and other will just content with it. Death note became famous because of the unique story
line, for the first 2 episodes you’ve seen you will be asking for more and continue watching it because it really an interesting anime. You will wonder what will happen next. Overall really great and a must see Anime. I recommend it to everyone. Death note is one of the best animes that proves that we don’t always need large boobs, ninjas, magic, or giant robots. - anime-source.com
