Light Yagami is a high school student who stumbles across a Death Note, or a diary of death. Whoever is written in this notebook will die and there are plenty of celebrities and annoyances that Light will gladly get rid of. He takes it upon himself to be the god of a new world, and maybe will make a fan club or two. Accompanied by a god of death or shinigami named Ryuk, and being chased by idiotic detectives, there's bound to be plenty of chaos and laughter by the end.
