DEATH NOTE
Light Yagami is a genius high school student who is about to learn about life through a book of death. When a bored shinigami, a God of Death, named Ryuk drops a black notepad called a Death Note, Light receives power over life and death with the stroke of a pen. Determined to use this dark gift for the best, Light sets out to rid the world of evil… namely, the people he believes to be evil. Should anyone hold such power? The consequences of Light’s actions will set the world ablaze. (Source: VIZ Media)

Death Note, Death Note, Death Note. There was so much potential to be an absolute masterpiece. I legitimately thought that it was a solid 9/10 after 13 episodes or so. Then it kept going....And going....And going...And going long after reaching a satisfying conclusion, after two characters that coul…

Read full review on AniList →Here is an anime that I consider a bit overhyped if not overrated, I will share my positive and negative thoughts about the characters, plot, world-building, art, moral and finishing with a small paragraph. The premise is good but it is not like I wanted to watch it right away, it was the 50th anim…

Read full review on AniList →Though this is different from the genre of anime I normally watch, I was blown away by Death Note's execution and original, inventive storyline. I had always been intrigued by its concept of a notebook that can kill anyone whose name is entered in it, and that alone was enough to convince me to watc…
Read full review on AniList →When one thinks of quintessential anime, the first things that come to mind might be classics such as Dragon Ball and Naruto. This list arguably contains slightly more modern series such as Attack On Titan, My Hero Academia, and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. And it certainly isn't hard to find p…
Read full review on AniList →Alright so I drafted this review 2+ years ago and actually wrote it all the minute I finished Death Note but never posted it, so here. Also be grateful I took out the Light x Ryuk image. Death Note is listed as the [3rd most popular anime](https://anilist.co/search/anime?sort=POPULARITY_DESC) for g…
Read full review on AniList →It's been about 12 years or so since I had discovered Death Note for the first time. It was one of the first anime alongside Fullmetal Alchemist to get me versed into anime, and it's funny because I remember pretty vividly my cousin showing me this show on YTV's former late-night anime block Bionix;…

Read full review on AniList →So Death Note a series where you ask yourself what left is there to say about it apart from the obvious? Well maybe a couple things to be sure because the thing about Death Note for me is that it's such a heavy handed series that I can really only afford to revisit it every so often to avoid sufferi…

Read full review on AniList →Death note is just so much of a sick anime, both in the good way and in the way of the cast (preferably the main character). And now watch it or have it watched before reading, SKIBIDI SPOILERS AHEAD (ok omg that was so cringe, forget that) It starts of with a simple (but for a story, genius) idea…
Read full review on AniList →Death Note is one of the best animes I have seen, whether it's because of the animation, the characters, the plot or voice acting, this is one of the best things I have seen, to date (November 9th 22:49 of 2023). Of course we have to start with the animation, the animation style of Death Note is gr…
Read full review on AniList →No Spoilers ahead! When you first pick Death Note up, it sort of instantly draws you in with swift storytelling and fast but not confusing introductions of how the Death Note works, and the setting/ordinary life of the characters. The dynamics between Light and L are very entertaining to watch, it…
Read full review on AniList →Death note is easily one of the greatest anime ever made A)The Premise: The plot is deceptively simple. Light Yagami, a brilliant but bored high school student, stumbles upon a Death Note, a Shinigami (death ***)'s weapon dropped into the human world. Its rules are straightforward: any human whose…

I'm not gonna go too in-depth because I think most of you guys have probably seen the show let alone heard about it. firstly th…
Read full review on AniList →When one thinks of quintessential anime. This one is almost always there. You cannot find someone who doesn't think highly of Death Note. Even if there are people who dislike the second half. The anime itself is a classic From the very first episode we are thrown into the unrealistically smart shoe…
Read full review on AniList →_(Spoilers for all of Death Note)_ I went into Death note pretty much blind, and overall is exceeded my expectations. I found Death Note a lot more fun to watch than a typical Shonen like JJK. An interesting plot and good pacing are one of the most important things for a story to get right, and som…
