Death Note

Mmmmbuddy, Death Note has come to Adult Swim on Saturday nights. It's a pretty complex little mystery anime, and it's not so much action-packed, yet it is extremely well written and intelligent. I own all the manga in English and watch the anime in Japanese as it was coming out. I'm pretty stoked that it is now in English on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. It's replacing new episodes of Bleach...which ran out of English dubbed episodes apparently, ah well.
Anyways, Death Note is a mystery anime for the most part- like I said. It's about an extremely smart high schooler who finds a notebook with the power to kill anyone that he has seen the face of and whose name he has written down. He decides to use this newfound power to cleanse the world of evil and become the deity of his new world. Unfortunately, the police are after him and even the genius detective, L, has developed interest in taking down this unknown invisible serial killer. I highly recommend checkin' it out. The animation and music is terrific, and while there aren't any fight scenes, it's definitely got terrific intellectual duels between two conflicting sides of justice.
