"Ignorance VS Justice"
Sound:
Being a new anime for 2007, Death Note has amazing sound quality. The sound will make you feel all the suspense ans pressure the story is giving to the audience. The opening song and ending song for episodes 1-19 will surely play through you mind when watching the anime. You might as well make it your phone's ring tune (>.-).
Animation:
Death Note's animation bring the most out of it....

"Death Note"
An excellent anime with very good symbolism and questions about what we as humans, deem to be moral and immoral. Without giving too much away, the brief story is of a student of extremely high intellect who comes across a notebook... A notebook dropped by a Death God. At first, he percieves this "Death Note" to be nothing more than an elaborate prank yet still he is drawn to it. Taking it home...

"Delightful mental mind twisting series with some supernatural thrown in"
Death Note is all around a truely surprising and astounding series. It has strong elements of the supernatural, psychological/human interaction, and suspense, and it's all well balanced.
This series really keeps you on your toes, in nearly every episode I had one of those "I didn't see that coming" moments, and usually I find shows fairly predictable. There are some little quirks of humor here...

"Action and horror"
Twists, twists and more twists. An anime that was being made into 3 great movies and with popular voice actors and voice actress such as Mamoru Miyano and Aya Hirano.
Be prepared for an anime filled with psychological thrill that will keep you thinking what's going to come up next. Conflict between good and evil. Is justice really what it is deemed to be? What if someone overused "justice" and...

"Death Note!!!! "
I have to say this anime has to be the most thought out anime i have ever seen. The time it took to think of the plot and characters had to be danting. The story line draws you in from the first episode and after each episode you can't wait for the next. This is a great series for people who enjoy psychological thrillers. The characters are amazingly put together and make you awe in the amazing...

But like any story, theres always the opposing side, which in this case would be L. a mastermind detective who hasnt failed to solve a single mystery. Then theres Ryuk, the...

Deathnote is in my top 3 best animes! Right up there with Bleach non-fillers(action, some comedy) and Gintama(comedyXcomedyXcomedyXcomedyXaction)!
Basically, it's about the handsome main character who passes righteous jugdement from the shadows! Then a battle of wits commences with the also gorgeous adolescent genius detective.
It's about this guy who...

"A plot grabbing moral tale of pure good and evil."
This is probably the most compelling anime story out there. While this anime brought controversy between anime lovers, it became a must watch. The idea behind this genre is about human nature at its brightest and darkest stages. The only disappointing part of this anime is the end I would have to say. Not to spoil it for others, I will say that the peak of intensity in the story drops...

"This is a great anime i love until L died, but still very good"
I love this anime. Tons of people recommended it to me. It is about this boy who finds a notebook, which he can kill people with. He is trying to set up a perfect world with him as the god. Some , such as the detective L, think what he is doing is bad and catch him.
