It is really an awesome series with a lot of plot twists, suspense, thriller, crimes, rivalry, and fantastic character development with a satisfying ending for the show. The story is so thrilling, captivating and exciting that never gets boring anywhere. I can’t describe the characters ‘Yagami Light’ and ‘L (Ryuzaki)’ in words. If you don’t believe me, watch yourself if you haven’t.
Plot: One day, a high-school student Yagami Light finds a supernatural notebook dropped by a Shinigami (The God Of Death), that grants its user the ability to kill, just by writing the name of the person on it.

But what happens when his rival, the most talented detective, ‘L’ and his team tries to take him down by prooving ‘Light’ here is the evil one.
