Death Note--Support KIRA

DEATH NOTE

Episodes: 37

Genre: Action, Drama, Mystery

Summary: The World in which Light Yagami in is rotting. At least, that's what he thinks. There is nothing but criminal reports on news broadcasts, criminal activity on the streets...and even in the classrooms. It's pathetic...and someone needs to fix it. And that's just what he aims to do, when he happens upon a strange notebook labeled "Death Note". The front page almost scares him away "The person who's name is written in this note shall die". Almost. He refuses to cast the book away without testing it for himself. Randomly watching a broadcast, he witnesses a hostage situation. As the name and face of the man is posted on TV, Light writes it down...then waits. When the notebook proves to be real, Light's mind starts turning. What if....what if he could eliminate ALL Crime from the world?! What if he could start a NEW WORLD? Would that make him...the GOD of that world?

You follow Light during his transformation, as he meets the Shinigami Ryuk, and proceeds to follow the path which he believes is right. Using the notebook to his full advantage. Things heat up when Detective L is brought in to oppose him, with his quick wit and daring intellect, he is truly the only one to offer Light a challenge. Just who will win...and will Light TRULY create a world only he could dream of? Or will L crush that goal and save the world's criminals from Light's judgment?

Opinion: This is a must see for anyone who's into hard core MIND GAMES. The entire show is like a huge game of chess. One wrong move and it's Checkmate....or more specifically, Death. It has you wondering just who is truly right...and makes you think about everything you've come to believe. I'm sure you form sides...but I stayed pretty objective for the most part. ((Yes yes, even though my name IS Support KIRA. I really DO connect with Light's Beliefs and Goals...but to a certain point. I can't go into it unless you see it! LOL)) The animation is ASTOUNDING...and the music really fits well with the situations. I must say...the openings/endings are dynamite! XD I highly recommend it as it is truly becoming one of the 'must-see' staples.

Here's the Opening Sequence, Enjoy!
