Death Note
Pros:
-Light was an interesting protagonist
-A surprisingly good score
-Really good tension
-A satisfying unraveling of events
-I never quite knew what was going to happen next
-The contrast between both openings is still pretty funny to me
Cons:
-All the stuff with L was so good that Near couldn't stand on his own
-Holy paranoia
Overall if I could describe Death Note as a meal/food:
Awesome sauce
