I honestly don't, either. It's just that one.

"What's so special about Death Note?" you ask? Let's see... starting with the premise: one supergenius finds a magic notebook that will kill anyone whose name is written down in it; this catches the attention of the deputy chief of the Japanese Police (his father), who hires a detective, anpther supergenius, to try and catch him. The rest of the series is a series of plots, counterplots, counter-counterplots, etc. etc. between the two to figure out each other's identity. It's mostly psyhological, and f-- brilliant when they explain exactly how the characters set events up.
