Death Note is widely considered to be a pillar of modern anime shows/manga adaptations, especially among western audiences - plus, it was Michael's first cautious step into the anime rabbit hole! The gang follows the main character Light Yagami as he acquires the titular Death Note and begins to expand his colossal ego to truly galactic proportions, and we discuss just how accessible this show is to people who might get...overwhelmed...by this show's initial vibe. Stay for the mental warfare, surprise character reveals, and big brain mind games! Content warning: SPOILERS, strong language.
