A review by merlin_reads
Death Note: Black Edition, Vol. 5 by Tsugumi Ohba

2.0

 I've committed to this until the end but oh my, they are just dragging this out aren't they?

There's been a lot of changes in the world of chasing Kira. New players exist to capture Kira while the world has somehow chosen Kira as their new God - this might be the most unbelievable part of this. There's TV shows devoted to Kira, Kira's word is now law, and anyone who opposes Kira is now the hunted.

At this point, nothing shocks me. It's just more cat and mouse games while Light just chills and laughs at everyone running around like sheep. In case you can't tell, I cannot stand Light. What irks me is this story started off so well with a great battle between Light and L. But all that is gone now and the story is missing that umph that was there when Light and L battled wits. It just seems like everyone is missing brain cells and just caving to childrens whims. Moving on to the final installment and I just hope this is wrapped up with some sort of just desserts for Light.
