Ever wondered what my favourite Anime(Japanese comic) is ? Well it is 'Death Note' ! 'Death Note' is about a bored shinigami(God Of Death) by the name of Ryuk throwing down a Death Note into the human world. Another bored character by the name of Light Yagami picked it up and read the instructions within it. At first he thought it was all fake but soon found it to be genuine. He planed to kill all the criminals in the world and soon attracted the police, ICPO, CIA, FBI and even the world's top detective "L". Not long after, Ryuk and Light Yagami met. But there was yet another 'Death Note' from another God of Death named Rem, in the hands of a girl named Misa Amane.
There was numerous characters such as Teru Mikami, Kiyomi Takada, Soichiro Yagami, Tota Matsuda, Kanzo Mogi, Shuichi Aizawa, Hirokazu Ukita, Hideki Ide, Watari/Quillsh Wammy, Near/Nate River, Mello/Mihael Keehl, Matt/Mail Jeevas, Sachiko Yagami, Sayu Yagami, Raye Penber, Naomi Misora and many more.
Other Shinigami (God of Death) were Jealous, Shidoh and Jastin the Jeweled Skeleton and others who were unknown.
You may think that they sounded and looked errie and dark but there are other aspects of the characters that stole my interest in them. Although Light Yagami kills people, he only kills criminals and those who oppose him. I think he is still very 'righteous' in that sense except that he practises much violence in dealing with his emotions. The twists in the stories captivated me immensely and I just couldnt let go of the book once I start on it. I'm a fan of it now and I collect related 'Death Note' collectables besides just reading the book.
Take a glimpse at some of these characters below :They are Light Yagami, L lawliet, Jealous, Misa Amane, Near/Nate rivers, Rem and Ryuk respectively.
