Death Note, Vol. 7
When Light Yagami finds a notebook giving him power over death, will he use it for good—or evil?
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 now Light has vowed to use the power of the Death Note to rid the world of evil. But when criminals begin dropping dead, the authorities send the legendary detective L to track down the killer. With L hot on his heels, will Light lose sight of his noble goal...or his life?
After a high-speed chase, Light and the task force apprehend the newest Kira. Light regains his Death Note and his memories, and the depths of his cunning are revealed as the plans he carefully put in place before going into confinement are slowly unveiled. His masterful manipulation of both humans and Shinigami lead him to the strongest position he's yet enjoyed. But the glow of his victory is marred when a new threat appears. Can Light withstand a surprise attack on two fronts?

Okay, this volume was amazing! I wanted something different as far as narrative structure and golly, did I get it! Ohba! I didn't mean for you to take it this far!! I wasn't quite ready, but you know, honestly the outcome to one of the storylines was overdue.
In the previous volume, Light and L apprehended the current known Kira. Once they gain possession of the DeathNote, Light's memories return and the depth of his genius comes to light and we are finally able to see just how brilliantly Light manipulated EVERYONE: human and Shinigami alike. I loved the revelation in its full breadth, as well as what followed.
Since one of the major plotlines came to a close, a new one that forked took its place. I'm not sure how I feel about the two new character introductions, but the only way to find out is to read Volume 8! Onwards!
