Details

Based on the best-selling Japanese manga series of the same name by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata, Death Note tells the story of Light Yagami, a bright but dissatisfied student in Tokyo. When he comes across a discarded notebook owned by Ryuk, a mythological god of death, he discovers that he can kill anyone by just writing their names in the supernatural notebook. So Light decides to take justice into his own hands by filling the notebook with names of the nation's most wanted criminals, but unbeknownst to Light, a detective only known as L is tracking him down.
