A slow start but the end of the volume I became more interested. I might just continue on this series just because I’m curious about where this could possibly go! I also really enjoy Ryuk as a character and am excited to see more of this Shinigami’s personality in future volumes.

Fantastic, gripping story that will suck you in and make you want to read deep into the night. It’s intense and often humorous. It loses one star for being misogynistic; there are some moments when Light (the main character) disregards female characters, and one scene where he contemplates holding a woman down by force so she can’t reveal his secret.

Re reading the series for the first time since I was 14. Favorite characters are definitely still L and Ryuk. Love Ryuk’s fashion style. An icon. Honestly don’t care abt anyone else yet lol. But I’m enjoying it for the nostalgia.
