Death Note
Average college student Light Yagami discovers a black notebook that claims to be able to kill anyone whose name and face is known to its owner. After testing the notebook on a bully and a criminal holding his father, Soichiro, hostage, Light is met by notebook’s original owner- a shinigami named Ryuk. After some persuasion by Ryuk, Light becomes compelled to use the notebook as a means to create a utopia...

Suspect and Pursuit
Ryuk, who can see the lifespan of humans, reveals to Light that Misa Amane, a popular idol who Light is a fan of, may only have a few days to live. Light attempts to warn Misa after one of her concerts but fails. However one of her security guards, Tsutomu Yukida, overhears Light’s warnings and offers to help Light protect Misa. Meanwhile, L meets with a few members of the Japanese police, one of which includes Soichiro, in order to form a task force dedicated to capturing Kira.

Kira
With “Raye Penber” still following him, Light realizes that L’s phone call was, in fact, a trap. Light becomes determined to kill all the FBI agents involved in the Kira case in order to disperse suspicion on him. In the midst of his planning, Light remembers finding a picture of Cathy Campbell, the name of Raye’s lover, during the bus-jacking incident. Meanwhile, Misa sacrifices half of her remaining lifespan to Rem in order to receive the shinigami eyes, allowing her to see the real names and lifespans of anyone she looks at.

Kiras
Suspecting that Mark Dwellton met with Kira before his death, L plants cameras and listening devices in the houses of families Mark was following. Light quickly realizes this and formulates a plan to temporarily prove his innocence to the task force members. However, L’s suspicions do not waver and he enrolls into Light’s university in order to investigate him personally.

The Eyes of the God of Death
Misa reveals that she has fallen in love with Light and wishes to help him kill L. At the same time, L reveals to the task force that, based on the killings made at the wake of the recent broadcast, a second Kira may have appeared. L then suggests recruiting Light into the investigation team both as a way to move the investigation further and get him to possibly reveal himself as Kira.

"Kill Me"
Light approaches L and the task force and requests to be placed under surveillance on the grounds that he could subconsciously be acting as Kira. After Light is incarcerated, the killing of criminals stops for some time, but they resume once Rem passes the notebook to a new owner.

All According to Plan
Light and Misa join forces with the task force in order to capture Kira. However, L’s suspicions of the two do not waver as he suspects that they intentionally lost their memories by passing their powers to someone else. After realizing that they are under suspicion by the authorities, a group of Yotsuba executives enlists the aid of the investigator Babel, who is revealed to be Near in disguise.

Justice
After the notebook is confiscated by the task force, a fake usage rule written by Ryuk convinces L that Light and Misa are innocent. Near is revealed to Soichiro to be L's successor whilst L makes plans for a final confrontation with Kira...
