Death Noted

Hey. There have been a lot of things stopping me from making posts, writer's block for one. But there has been a show I have been enjoy lately. A little show called Death Note. I have watched Anime in the past, mostly stuff like Naruto and Dragon Ball, but this one just simply beats the crap out of both of them. Death Note is the best Anime I have ever seen. It's also the most intelligent show I have seen.

The story manages to look deep into such subjects as human nature and the right to punish. The main plot, the conflict between the Protagonist Light Yagami and the Detective L is amazing, watching their separate plots unfold as one tries to outsmart the other, it's all very well done. The characters are brilliantly done. Light is basically the Anime version of Macbeth and L, man L. L is one of the greatest characters ever created, managing to throw all detective conventions out the window.

That's enough from me. Death Note, sadly, will not make it to broadcast here, since Cartoon Network AU ditched Adult Swim. However, the DVD's and the Manga will arrive next month. Seriously, it's worth watching.
