Begging of the end
Volome 7 is without question one of the best volumes of the series. It is the turning point of the series full of twists and a big final one which well make jaws drop. It brings it new a new set of people to add more sides to this epic battle of wits as well.

Now the ONLY drawback is that this volume does set up the worst story line of the series. But that storyline alone its still great. New foes/friends and the now the first story Arc is over.

The End Is Near.

Light's plans bear fruit
This seventh volume of the truly excellent Death Note manga is something of a book of two halves. The first half of the volume sees the conclusion of Light's rather complicated plots and it looks like he is well on his way to creating his perfect world. The second half of the volume sets things up for the second half of the series with new opponents arising to challenge Kira and events take a turn that he does not expect.

This series continues to impress me and some of the twists in the plot of the story, although seeming somewhat contrived in places, are nonetheless fascinating and do enough to keep you reading. I will definitely be interested to see where the story goes on from here.

#7-- An ending, and a new beginning
I won't spoil it for you, but a lot happens in this volume.

Characters die, the Yotsuba/Kira saga comes to an end, Light's machinations from 2 volumes ago before he was imprisoned are finally revealed, and the main story that runs through the book takes a twist.

The 1st half of this volume is all about endings. Light remembers everything he set into motion before he gave himself up to L, and many conclusions come out of it, while the main story takes a dramatic twist as it moves on 4 years.

The 2nd half is all about setting up the coming volumes. New enemies/allies [depending on if you agree with Kira or not] are revealed, and their own plans set into motion.


I am yet to read a volume of Death Note that isn't 5*, and this is no different.
