Death Note: Black Edition, Vol. 1 by Tsugumi Ohba

5.0

dark tense fast-paced

How could this possibly be any less than 5 stars? It’s tense, and so cognitively satisfying. I love how well thought out the characters and their motivations are. Ryuk is so funny, and the competition between L and Light really plays on the balance between good and evil, right and wrong. What’s not to love?
