Death Note

I think most who will see this are already familiar with the story. This is a fantastic tale of corruption and death, and (in the typical Japanese fashion) a story of the struggle between two young, brilliant, emotionless, cruel, good, evil, men.

Having no background on the series, I felt that they did a good job of building up sympathies with Light before bringing them down. Even with the very predictable themes, it was a good ride from start to finish.
