I was recently recommended Death Note by a friend. I am currently watching episode 8 and all I could think my entire time watching is what an interesting GURPS game this would make. I cannot decide what would be the best way to do it, however. It seems that there are many ways and they all seem fun. You could have all the players be investigators, all of them searching for the "kira" character. Possibly one of them being kira would be interesting. However both of those possibilities seem like they would take an insane amount of planning and work on my part. A better way, I feel, would be to have a player find a Death Note and let his friends (the other players) in on the secret. This may bend the rules of the show but that's okay because I would prefer to play this with people that have never seen the show. Any ideas or opinions?
