About

You can watch Death Note (2006) on Hoopla with a participating library card.

Light Yagami is an ace student with great prospects—and he’s bored out of his mind. But all that changes when he finds the Death Note, a notebook dropped by a rogue Shinigami death god. Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies, and Light has vowed to use the power of the Death Note to rid the world of evil. But will Light succeed in his noble goal, or will the Death Note turn him into the very thing he fights against?

Light Yagami transforms from a bored genius into a lethal vigilante after discovering a notebook that kills anyone whose name is written inside. This intellectual cat-and-mouse game pits his god complex against a brilliant detective in a battle of wits where one wrong move means certain death.
