Death Note, Vol 2, by Tsugumi Ohba

Now a storm of difficulties hit Light as he is tested to be qualified for this formidably malicious life as Kira. His magnificent intelligence is questioned whether he can really slip out of the fingers of the police and built his new cleansed world. On the other hand, L works for the very first time with a few detectives for the sake of this monstrous case. L is no less intelligent than Light in fact he is the only detective in the world who is capable to solve labyrinthine problems like this. Shockingly we learn more about luminary detective’s outrageously strange habits. L tests Kira’s limit by monitoring how far he’ll go to protect his crime by sending private FBI spies from America. To make things worse one of the agents has a fiancée whose clever thinking and evidence may lead to Light’s defeat. Light strives to destroy all that is against him but the question still hangs in the air, how far will he go?

Things spice up even more in the book Death Note, Vol 2, by Tsugumi Ohbaas the unique detective L is introduced with his peculiar actions. I am absolutely loving this new character who is on the same intellectual level as Light but the only difference is that Light is head to toe a perfect model while L here is simply a bizarre human with outrageous behaviors! This is where it gets exciting as the cat and mouse chase begins among Kira and L. Also, I am really enjoying how Light takes certain actions which is absolutely shocking for him to committee all for his terrifying dream of creating a new world with the Death Note.
