Episodes: 1 season with 37 episodes
Synopsis: Light Yagami is a genius high schooler who discovers the "Death Note", a notebook that kills anyone whose name is written in it. After experiencing with the notebook through several different ways, Light meets the Shinigami Ryuk, the notebook's original owner, who dropped the notebook to a human out of boredom. Light tells Ryuk of his plan to rule over a new world free from criminals as a god, where only people he deems morally fit to live remain. Light eventually becomes known to the public as "Kira", which is derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the word "killer".
Opinion: Death Note is very intriguing and mysterious. The first episode gets you hooked and makes you want to watch the next one and so forth. The animation is done very nicely. The story is intriguing and keeps bringing you back. The second season has no scheduled release date so far but it has been quite a while since the last episode aired. If you are looking for a mysterious anime with an interesting plot, then this is the show for you.
