Death Note is so Overrated

When I first saw DN, i thought it would be a change from the average kiddy anime crap that comes out these days.  I mean, it had the formula, and everything down, but the plot holes and some characters just makes this anime fail.  I'm sorry but this anime isn't gonna get people to think of anime as a serious medium anytime soon, because of it's major flaws.

The first half was made of awesome.  Except for the obvious, me vs you in a duel see who wins, between Light and L. 

And then when Misa was introduced the series just turned into another one of those Love anime like Love Hina.  She's the epitime of the girls in those anime obsessed with a guy, trying to win their hearts.  There was never any substantial reason why she fell in love with Light except, he looked atractive in her eyes.  WTF, so many plot holes I can't explain.  Misa was so retarded, how'd you figure she would know how to search for Kira and set that up that Kira would come by and she uses her eyes to figure him out.

Also Major plot hole, why the fuck in world would not only 1, but 2 Shinigami fall for Misa she has no fucking brain.  Not only that but Rem a female Shinigami?  Can Shinigami's be lesbos?  That's just lame.

I think that Ray Penbar's fiance was 100X more interesting than Misa ever was as a female character.

If they creator wanted to introduce a female lead, maybe they could of used Ray Penbar's fiance more, it would of been interesting to see how it will play out if she got a hold of the death note instead of misa since she's a much more deep character and actually has a brain.

Also, it would make more sense if Rem has feelings for Ray's fiance since she just lost her husband, made no sense for rem to have feelings for Misa, cuz Misa had no brain, she didn't show any emotions accept for her dumb love obssesion for Light.
