Deathnote is a unique anime series unlike any other to date. As apposed to being an action, martial arts, mech-robot, cutesy, romantic fantasy (other well known and common anime genres), Deathnote is more a psychological thriller with a supernatural twist.

The characters in this story particularly "Light" ("Kira"/Killer) and "L" and really, really fascinating and it's so thrilling to watch their "cat and mouse" style game played between them throughout the majority of the series. It always seems like one of them is a step ahead of the other but then just when you think you know what's going to happen....BAM!!! A NEW PLOT TWIST!!!!

Deathnote is a great series for anyone not just Anime fans as it is packed full of mystery and intrigue with a great blend of dark humour thrown into the mix and every episode ends on a cliff hanger leaving the viewer on the edge of their seat waiting in eager anticipation for the next chapter in the thrilling Deathnote saga!

This series was brilliant from start right up until the dramatic finale!

Highly recommended!!!
