In my opinion Death Note is one of the greatest manga series of its time. The artwork in the manga was very realistic, the facial expressions are so real it's like you are experiencing what the characters are going through. The story also had me on the edge of my seat because you never knew what was going to happen next. It was full of suspense and it kept you guessing on what was going to happen. The characters were also very well done. They reacted to situations in a realistic way, which is surprising given some of the supernatural elements of the manga. The characters were also drawn in a way that fit their personalities. I would highly recommend this manga to others because it combines thriller and action all rolled into one.
