Death Note

As i said before Death Note was the first anime that i watched.

It sucked me in from episode 1!

The Death Note is a note book that when you write a persons name in they die. Ryuk, a shinigami (god of death/reaper) drops his note book in the human realm and its found but Light Yagami who later on uses it.

The human whose name is written in this notebook shall die.

This notebook will not take effect unless the writer has the subject's face in their mind when writing his/her name. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.

If the cause of death is written within 40 seconds of writing the person's name, it will happen.

If the cause of death is not specified, the person will simply die of a heart attack.

After writing the cause of death, the details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.

The story continues as Light uses the notebook to kill off criminals thinking it will make him a god. The police catch on and send L, the best detective in the world, to stop the madness.  Light, with the help of Ryuk, discover more and more ways to kill off people. I won't spoil it too much if you have yet to see this amazing Anime!

After seeing the Anime i did buy the mangas which are the same more or less story line but equally as good. Who wouldn't want to own them?!

Small note: I recommend not watching the live action films as they ruin the story line. Amusing but you cannot compare it to the Anime & Manga.

Manga: Same story slightly different ending... a bit better in fact than the Anime.

I love this Anime and will most likely watch it 100 more times :). It's a good Anime to start off with if your new to all this.
