Noir ( ノワール , Nowāru ? ) , a 26-episode anime series from 2001 , is a story of two young female assassins who embark together on a personal journey to seek answers about mysteries from their past. While at first they seem to be only vaguely related to each other, there are clues and hints given throughout the series that there are more than meets their eyes. During the course of the series, they are lured into more and more traps by a secret organization named Les Soldats ("The Soldiers" in French ). The anime draws inspirations and influences from two prominent films by French director Luc Besson , Léon and Nikita . The amnesia suffered by one of the main characters resembles the story of the protagonist from Robert Ludlum's novel The Bourne Identity .
It was produced by the Japanese animation studio Bee Train and was licensed for American distribution by ADV Films .
In Japan, Noir was broadcast on TV Tokyo , which is known for strict guidelines, including not allowing blood to be shown. Noir circumvented this rule by stylizing the gunfights. Outside Japan, Noir has been well-received, due to its unusual plots and stories which have a strong European style and flavor. It has been broadcasted in France (by Canal+ ), Germany (by VIVA Television), Latin America (by Animax) and Spain (by La Sexta), dubbed in French, German and Spanish respectively.
"Noir" is also the French word for "black", and noir is a genre of film. Noir takes its title from both of these; it mostly takes place in France and is a fairly serious, dark and violent anime. It is worth to note that the production team stated that their goal with Noir is to create it as realistic as possible. Noir has almost no funny or comic relief scenes, save for some sarcastic remarks. No character is ever animated with super deformed or over-exaggerated style. To make it even resemble a film than a TV series, Noir is filmed in 16×9 aspect ratio instead the usual 4×3 aspect ratio for TV.
Despite the presence of attractive female lead characters, Noir features almost no fanservice (compare this to Najica Blitz Tactics ). In Noir, characters' non-verbal expressions play such a significant role that it is quite difficult to come to a common understanding of the show.
