Basically about Light Yagami finding the book of a shinigami and using it's powers to create a "New World" that he will be the new God for them. His plans start falling apart when he encounters L. People die, Shinigamis love apples, L magically doesn't have Diabetes, so yeah. Brief? Hope so. X3

It also involves Light having to use his intelligence to get out of a lot of tight spots. He has to use logic, manipulation, and other quick/witty methods to thwart L's moves against him.

The first half of Death Note, is probably my favorite anime. The second half, not so much. I just hated the last half, and for me it ruined what could have been my favorite anime.

Yeah, they should've made it a 26-ep series and just mashed together the endings from both halves (or at least, certain parts of each).

Death Note tells the story of a brilliant Japanese high school student named Light Yagami finds a mysterious notebook lying on the ground left by a shinigami (death God) named Ryuk. Light discovers that this notebook with the title “Death Note” claims to have the power to kill anyone whose name is written it. Out of sheer boredom, Light tries it out thinking it’s a joke at first, but when news reports of the man Light wrote in the notebook to be found dead, he decides to use it to get rid of all criminals to create the world in his image. Some people have become fascinated by this mysterious serial killer, and give him the name Kira (Japanese word for killer). The Japanese police, however want to put a stop to Kira as many criminals are dropping dead everywhere. Then, a mastermind detective known as L takes on the case to put a stop to Kira.
