Weary Shinigami the Death dropped a notebook in the human world.  "The human whose name is written in this note shall die" it said...... It was the notebook of death that determined people's death.

And it all started when Light Yagami, an extremely bright high school student picked up this ultimate tool.  He decides to create an ideal world and begins to hold the scales to judge the criminals in his discretion.  Is Light a saviour?  Or is he just a maniac killer?  Some worship him.  Some contradict him.  The world is affected by Light's actions......
