Dude, I love you, this is the first time I've ever seen anyone spell the names the way I do.

(SPOILER WARNING for those of you who have not yet caught on that this thread contains spoilers about Noir's ending... lol)

Anyway, I agree that there probably isn't anything (sexual/romantic) between Kirika and Mireiyu. But they do have an intense friendship, and a companionship/love that is unfathomably stronger than what your average guy on the street feels for his friends. Since they went through so much together, and afterall in the end Kirika decided to live just because Mireiyu wanted her to. But I don't see any (serious) implications that Kirika and Mireiyu would become romanticly involved.

Plus there is that time when Kirika meets that guy. Some say that there was nothing romantic between him and her, but I say there was, and also Mireiyu's seiyuu said it was the story of Kirika's first love in the interview.

Anyway... I'd say her choice was fairly clear, seeing as how she killed Kuroe. She dearly wanted to not hurt Kuroe, but the only thing that would have put doubt in her mind regarding Mireiyu VS Kuroe would be that trance she seemed to be in at The Manor.

Yes a music video. You don't have to follow the original storyline. My favorite AMV of all time create's it's own storyline, Center of the Sun.

It's there job isn't it? When your an assassin you just have to kill the person. I believe in the first episode, Kirika wonders why she never feels anything for the people she kills.

What if you take a job eating bees. Do you get to complain? NO! BECAUSE ITS YOUR FUCKING JOB!!!!

May I ask why do you want to spell the names like that?

The fact that Noir kills a bunch of people is of major importance to what the show is. (similar to 'film noir' I suppose, I don't know). It's not like they're going around killing women and children, they're killing people who also have bloodied hands, bastards and murderers and the scum of the Earth. That's what the refference to Noir being the hand of/justic of God is.

If you can't stand how many people Noir kills, that's understandable, but you're not getting the show the way it's intended to be seen. One of the Soruda/Soldats' philosophy is that (as a whole) they kill, but in return they are killed for their sins.

Because that's how I hear them, plus I just like the names better that way. I don't speak French, "Mireille" just seems weird to me. "Chloe" makes me think the name Chloe, pronounced with a hard E, not an soft 'e'. When I watch the show I hear the characters being called Arutena, Kuroe, Mireiyu, etc. Plus I think they look better that way.

I usually spell names the "correct" way (such as Chloe, or Mireille) as opposed to the way they're pronounced in Japanese versions...but since, as I mentioned earlier, I've only seen the series subbed, I think of them in terms of the Japanese pronunciation. Plus, I kinda like 'em better tat way.

Somebody help meee...

I can't find the right song. Hoobastank just doesn't have the right music. I heard some good songs on the radio, but I couldn't get the names. What I'm looking for is a song sung by a woman with an electronic voice or electronic music, i.e. madonna. I'd really like having a song with lots of drum beats in it too.

All right, to each his own.

I've been wanting to see an AMV made to Heaven's Earth (Matt Darey remix) by Delerium, but I don't know what kind of video you are going to do. It may not fit at all.

Ohhhh...a Delerium song? GIMME GIMME GIMME!

If it's created 20% profit is yours.
