Death Note
The human whose name is written in this note shall die.
Light Yagami is an ace student with great prospects—and he’s bored out of his mind. But all that changes when he finds the Death Note, a notebook dropped by a rogue Shinigami death god. Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies, and Light has vowed to use the power of the Death Note to rid the world of evil. But will Light succeed in his noble goal, or will the Death Note turn him into the very thing he fights against?

My favourite ever series not just of anime but TV in general, Death Note is simply beautiful television. The production is amazing from great animation to brilliant music and wonderful performances in English and Japanese. The characters of Light, L, Ryuk, Misa and so on are all truly iconic and entertaining, with Light Yagami being my favourite ever fictional character (he is a brilliant psychopath) and his rivalry with L being simply incredible. Episodes 25 and 37 stand-out as two of the greatest episodes of any TV show ever, especially episode 37 which releases the brilliantly built-up tension in a wonderful way. Tension is Death Note's speciality; it is brimming with tension and the few moments it lets loose are really quite special. If you want a high-stakes, morally grey battle of geniuses that sees almost every character get emotional broken and subjected to horrific fates, then watch Death Note. And the end of Death Note actually left me speechless.
