Death Note is T3h R0x0r

Recently, I finished a manga called Death Note. This manga was like no other I had encountered. The manga had everything. It is about a 17 year old boy named Raito who comes across a mysterious notebook. He finds instructions in this note. The note can kill people. The only condition is that you need to know their face and name. You must visualize their face while writing their name down in the note. They will then die. Raito starts to kill people with the note. His goal is reasonable, though. The reason is he will kill off all of his victims with heart attacks. People will know that someone is killing them off. They will become afraid and stop committing crimes. However, a genius detective is on Raito's case. However, then, a second note-user (Reffered to as Kira.) comes into the picture. This kira, upon meeting Raito, falls deeply in love with him. Raito uses this to his advantage. However, after L traps him, he gives up ownership of the note, as does the 2nd kira, Misa. For a while, Raito loses memory of the note. Then, he manages to catch the newest note owner. Upon touching the note, he regains his memory, and then shows just how deep his cunning goes. He forces Misa's guardian to kill the detective for him. So, the gist of it, is that death note, the psychological action manga, is really really good! Amazing!
