Death Note

In Tokyo, a disaffected high school student named Light Yagami finds the "Death Note", a mysterious black notebook that can end anyone’s life as long as the writer knows both the target's true name and face. Initially disbelieving, Light quickly considers the renewed possibilities of such an ability at his disposal and annihilates high-profile Japanese criminals then targets international criminals. Five days after discovering the notebook, Light is visited by Ryuk, a "shinigami" and the Death Note's previous owner. Ryuk, invisible to anyone who has not touched the notebook, reveals that he dropped the notebook into the human world out of boredom and is amused by Light's actions.
