(1 Season - Currently Airing : 10 Episodes)
To anyone else, acquiring the power to kill at a whim might initially seem enthralling, and, falling back to reality, immediately terrifying. But to Light Yagami, who feels a burning need to deal his brand of justice to the world, it would have been close to heresy if such power was left untapped. When he picked up the Death Note dropped by the shinigami Ryuk and started causing criminals worldwide to die by heart attack, this need -- which was already bordering on megalomania -- found exactly what it wanted to feed on.
Suffice it to say this "phenomenon" did not go unnoticed, and that's precisely how Light planned his vision to unfold. Soon enough, the public dubbed this mysterious force as "Kira" (derived from Killer), and unsurprisingly, the crime rates from all parts of the globe began dwindling.
While most people worldwide thought this was a good thing, not everyone -- especially not the International Criminal Police Organization, or ICPO -- had the opinion that killing off criminals above their sentence was a good way of dispensing justice. It is at this point that they decided to hire the services of an enigmatic but extremely intelligent investigator known only as "L" to find out who Kira is. And true to his reputation, L was already a step ahead from the ICPO as he wasted no time in making his presence known to Kira.
The mind traps both Light and L set up for each other are clever, complex, and oft times coldly cruel. "Each person is searching for an adversary whose identity is a complete mystery, and the first to be found will die." Ryuk was right when he said humans are infinitely interesting creatures.
