I will just put this as a very emotional review.

I remember Ryuk telling Light that those who use the notebook have misfortune and Light was being rather cocky and saying uh no not me. Well, the anime makes his death really pitiful but sad. The manga however makes him die a pathetic death but I still feel bad for him. This anime/manga really changed my life and it has a lot of messages as well. It goes to show that nobody can be God, and Gods of Death aren't ever on one side. I think that Light would have gone on to be a great detective, and have a happy life with his family if he never picked up that notebook. I still can't believe Death Note is finished even though its sort of old.

I find it interesting and sad how they show L at the end in the anime standing in front of Light like he's saying, "Justice will prevail. The good always wins." It was truly emotional and its like he's showing Light that L's death was only a temporary defeat. This anime also makes people wonder What is really good or bad? What is justice? What is right, What is wrong? It makes you think if Light was really bad.

Personally, I think Light had a good idea in his head. It's nice to live in a peaceful world but he was achieving this dream with the wrong method. It can never be called true peace if people are living in fear of being killed. So in a way, Light was right but he tried to show his 'rightiousness' the wrong way. And, despite the fact that L, Near, and Mello were fighting Kira as the 'good' people, I think that each one of them has a sliver of evil in them. Everyone does.

Basically, Death Note was a really unique manga. It was different from things you usually see. I think one of the things you can do when reading a manga is to think about what is really good or evil. Like Naruto, was Tobi/Obito really that bad? He was like Light- he was doing something others considered evil for a good reason. It's up to the readers who to side with but everyone should consider the 'bad' guys' point of view. Once you've done that, that's when you can decide for yourself if they can really be considered good or evil.

Well, I shall stop for now. But it would really make reading manga more interesting if you thought of things from many different perspectives.
