I think I wrote once about Death Note before, but I'm going to again.

Yagami Light*: a brilliant highschool student, who is tired of all the violence and crime in the world. Suddenly he finds a notebook titled "Death Note" that gives him the power to kill who-so-ever he chooses, by writing down their name in the Death Note. When he starts using it to kill off criminals with the intent of making himself a "god" of a perfect world, the police hire a mysterious individual named "L" to track Light down. The battle of wits between Light an L begins, where if either one slips up and let's the other know his name, then he is dead.

This anime has challenged me mentally from episode 1. I know that Light is evil, and must be stopped, but at the same time I so clearly see how his thought process is working, and how he really is trying to get rid of evil, although in the wrong way. And, the mental battles between Light and "L" are amazing. Even if you've never once in your life watched anime, I'm really sure you would love this. Just pop over to youtube.com** to watch it online, or realitylapse.com to download it. The anime is up to episode 23, with episodes being released on each Tuesday @ 7:30 JST(Japan standard time), you can usually get the episode with english subbs on kuro-hanasubs.com by at least Thursday morning.

This is my latest piano piece, that I've played. It was really hard for me, because of the 3 against 2 on the second page. Just go to thoughts-of-music.blospot.com to hear it. It's the top post.

*In Japan last names are listed first. So, his friends call him "Light"

**Note: Youtube has been recently removing anime from it's site due to copyright issues, so, you'd probably have more luck downloading from realitylapse.com
