This anime's it's rather similar to Code Geass, except not as good, mainly for the writing and the main character.

The best part was the voice acting, It's an anime you'll actually want to watch the dubbed version of. Alessandro Juliani gives a particularly good performance as L.

Other than that, it's somewhat interesting how the main character is more of an antagonist, while the ones working against him are more like the good guys. It would be better if Light was just a bit like-able though, you tend to hate his guts after a while.

As for animation, I guess that soft, dreary style suits the plot, but it's kind of boring compared to the more typical, vibrant anime style.

Worst part was the ending. Nuff said.
