Arrived way early, excellent condition too. It was like a brand new dvd. The only "complaint"is the sticker on the case, but that's just a pet peeve really.

TO THE DEATH

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 29, 2004

To me, Volume 6 of Noir was probably the most powerful installment of the series, so Volume 7 comes almost as an anti-climax. I had read reviews and heard rumors that this final Noir ended depressingly, but to me, it had a happy ending for some of the characters.

After learning, or rather remembering, that she killed Mireille's parents years before, Kirika seems to finally accept her fate that she is the true Noir, along with Chloe, and accompanies her to the Manor where the mysterious Altena is trying to purify the Soldats and bring them back to their original purpose. She seems to think that reviving Noir will have a rejuvenating effect on the Soldats, who she sees as having strayed from their original purpose of protecting the weak and oppressed. Ironically, the Soldats are now the tyrants of the world.

Meanwhile, Mireille, who also was a candidate for Noir, tries to get on with her life without Kirika. She is contacted by another faction of the Soldats. A faction that is against Altena. They want her to throw a wrench in the system. They want her to become half of Noir by killing one of the other two girls and becoming their agent, and maybe kill Altena in the mix. So Mireille, wanting to finally rid herself of the past, and also, in part because she cares for Kirika, also travels to the Manor. Who knows who will be standing at the end of Volume 7? You'll just have to buy and watch!

Well, I know it's a bad joke, but the series does end on quite a bang. Actually, this volume was a little slow-moving. I especially thought the character of Chloe was not allowed to develop much from a bloodthirsty grinning killer. Kirika really shined in the last couple of volumes. As always, the action sequences are very fine, with the usual shooting Noir theme playing in the background. Highly recommended.

The name of an ancient fate

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 27, 2012

Kirika and Mirielle are assassins for hire. They'll rub out anyone for enough money. Kirika has anmesia. All she recalls is the skills she has as an assassin. A mafia organization has sanctioned them and sends hitmen to test their skills. What they don't know yet is that they are candidates to take the title of Noir, an ancient team of killers that is feared by the underworld.

Noir is a very stylish anime. The colors and the soundtrack create a very unique mood. The series has a lot of action and plenty of mystery. It's a very cool series. The characters are compelling and keep you wanting to watch more. I definitely think anyone, anime fan or not, can get a lot of enjoyment out of it.

Ã'True NoirÃ" Has been selected

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 2, 2003

What a remarkable series this was! As far as I am concerned, this is one of the finest anime series ever produced. The voice talent, the music, the stories were all well crafted and heck of a lot fun to watch.
Noir is a female centric anime about three beautiful young women placed in various cosmopolitan settings all throughout Europe who make a living; and the world for a better place for that matter, by assassinating very bad men. With choreographed, ÒJohn-Woo-likeÓ, action scenes, immense details paid to the type of weapons used, a compelling story line, and a wonderful soundtrack, Noir is a true rush to experience.
In the first episode there is a consummation, so to speak, between two female characters hence this may not for suitable for children; you decide. In the last two episodes we witness all three characters, Chloe, Mirelle, and Kurika tear into each other to determine which two are the ÒTrue NoirÓ and it is very compelling to watch.
My favorite show-stopping scene is in the second episode of this DVD. ItÕs a point blank, in your face, shooting sequence between Murille and Kurika that takes place by a statue. This scene is amazingly animated, directed and edited. Every time I see that scene I replay it just to get the whole nuance. (Watch KurikaÕs shadow after her first shot at Mirelle.)
I hope we see more for even if a sequel is marginal, the music and the characterizations alone would be worth the time and money.

SpellBinding at the End.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 11, 2003

I really liked this series. The underling story line develops an unstoppable momentum as we move from chapter to chapter. By "Then End of the Matter" the viewer can hardly wait to get his hands on the next DVD to learn who will survive to become the "True Noir."
What I especially liked was the lethality of the players, unlike alot of Sci Fi, great rivers of firepower are not on display. Instead each shot fired is potentially lethal, and the tension in the movies of Sergio Leone is recaptured. Also like Sergio, extreme close-up's on the character's eyes, and facial features are often used to build the tension. The artists come through beautifully in terms of rendering what must have been a challenging vision on the part of the director.
I'm in my 40's myself, and have no problem recommending this series to an adult audience. The story telling is that good, far beyond the level of most "Prime Time" offerings in the states.

The True Noir

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 19, 2003

"Noir, it is the name of an ancient fate, two maidens who govern death, the peace of the newly-born, their black hands protect."
Noir was one of the greatest anime series I have ever seen. The animation is wonderful and is used to really illustrate the mood and scene. The show is also one of the most depressing series I have ever seen. The end has some hints of a happy end but it is just overshadowed by all the has happened in the seires. The end poses the question, " If love can kill, can not hatred save?" This question is the main focal point of the end of the series. The series may end with the vision of a brighter tomarrow, but it is easily looked over by all the prior events. All in all the series is very depressing, but so are the end to a lot of the shows that I watch. The end, as well as the entire series, may be depressing, but it is just an excellent show and is one of my personal favorites.

A fitting conclusion

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 28, 2004

Verified Purchase

Having reached the end of the tale, apart from the sadness that it is now all over, it did not disappoint, unless you really want irrelevant levels of detail in character back-stories to have been expounded. We learn all we need to know, and there is closure.
Disk 7 also gives us some of the fan-service that we'd been missing to date. And a poignant scene when we see that Kirika has finally achieved peace and happiness - and we know that it cannot last.
If I have to pick nits with the series, it's that it was dub-titled (in about four places sub-titles appeared without matching Japanese dialogue, presumably reflecting the English voice script). In all but one of the cases, it was just adding some suggestion of "noises off" for a distant crowd, so could be ignored. The last - which happens on this disk - changes the tenor of a scene - whether one character calls another's name in warning or not. And in a series - and an episode in particular - that relies heavily on subtle nuance as to what the characters are feeling and how they are reacting, that's a big change to make.
Having been put off the American voices and mispronunciations on the first disk, I can't comment on how that version developed.

Fantastic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 1, 2004

Verified Purchase

Yet again, noir delivers the goods in this satisfying conclusion to a great anime show. Without spoiling the ending, pretty much all the major loose ends are tied up, with a few things left un-explained (but you get the feeling that is intentional). The quality of the art and music is superb, as it is through out the show. I still have a few problems, somtimes kirikas voice is a little hard to here over the background noise, and I still dont understand exactly what happend in episode 20, but i still have to give, both this edition and the series as a whole, 5/5.
As a dvd, noir offers alot of extra's such as previews and interviews with voice actors and alternative languages. I did find how ever that the interview with the english voice actors was boring and pretty use-less as an insight into the show.
I don't see how a sequel could be possible, but I would certainly check it out.
