I am not an avid anime fan, but I have enjoyed a number of anime series and movie such as Full Metal Alchemist, Naruto, Akira to name a few. Death Note definitely ranks among the top of the animes.

Death Note provides interesting characters, a believable world, and an intriguing plot with smart twists and ideas. The uniqueness of this series stems from its "sherlock holmes" style story. Featuring good and bad forces battling it out through mind games, deception and even with the use of outer dimension beings to manipulate or save the world.

This series is only 37 episodes and is easily watchable over the course of a couple of weeks to a month. If you are an anime fan and considering watching this, then go for it, your in for a treat.
