I heard about Deathnote from a friend&decided to downlaod and watch it.the first episode was unexciting but then when L was introduced&he flipped it on Light it was like oh Sh!& didn't see that one coming!this is pretty much becomes the trend through he anime L and Light trying to one up each other.The end however is predictible as it suffers from what most animes suffer from and that is what one would call ganging up on a person"(I am talking about the M and N arcs here)but they call it "supporting friends" that is the usual theme in most shonen anime.So the writer did cop out in that regard.I like most other people was rooting for light throughout the series.There is something about Light that appeals to people's sense and interpretation of justice but also is a reflection of what would be our reactions if we were to be bestowed with such power.I have to admit that the anime made me feel much more smarter than I actually am(it got me scheming on people), Hiowever the real winner in the anime is The shinganmi who gets thoroughly entertained by the twists and turns in the plot funnily enough he his intelligence is nowhere near that of Light or L, this could be a potential flaw in the story.Like those kids in Belgium who killed a man&wrote a stupid note with"watari"on it,so you have been warned of its psychological effects.The animation is ok although they were able to make writing a person's name cool in a swashbuckling way.It is awesome and this could be the reason that Warner Bros might be doing a live action of it in the near future to add to the other ones that have been produced.There are no secret messages in this review by the way.The end did make mae want to delete it but it was a great anime overall to be honest and everytime I hear L's or Light's theme it gets me snickering and going into a dark corner and scribbling stuff while looking at people just to mess with their heads.But for [people who are into this kind of Anime i have yet to see an anime that tops this one, if yo have then let me know but in its genre it reigns supreme.
