📖 SYNOPSIS

In a world where the mundane meets the supernatural, Light Yagami, a prodigious high school student, stumbles upon the Death Note, a notebook dropped by the shinigami Ryuk. This extraordinary artifact grants Light the ability to kill anyone whose name he writes within its pages. Driven by a desire to eliminate evil, Light begins a clandestine crusade, targeting criminals and those he deems unworthy of life. As Light's actions ripple across the globe, he becomes a figure of both fear and admiration. The series explores complex themes of morality, justice, and the corrupting influence of power, as Light's ambition and the consequences of his actions set the stage for a thrilling battle of wits and wills. The story unfolds in a world where the line between good and evil blurs, forcing viewers to question the nature of justice itself.
