Noir, a 26-episode anime series from 2001, is a story of two young female assassins who are seeking answers about their past and why are they doing the job they are, while they are lured into more and more traps by the same people who employ them, a cryptic secret organization which calls themselves The Soldats (The Soldiers in French).
It was produced by the Japanese animation studio Bee Train and was licensed for American distribution by ADV Films.
In Japan, it was broadcasted through Tokyo TV, which is known for extremely tough ethic guidelines, which includes "NO blood please." Excel Saga which also aired on the station poked fun of the rule in the last episode, while Noir circumbented the rule by stylizing the gun fight.
"Noir" is also the French word for "black", and noir is a genre of film. Noir takes its title from both of these; it takes place in France and is a fairly dark and violent anime. The furigana given for the title, a guide for japanese readers unfamiliar with roman script is ノワール Nowaaru.
