I recognize I posted a thread similiar to this one, but it wasn't quite the same. While the former inquired whether or not Noir had sexual content, this thread asks specifically whether or not Noir is a good series that's worth buying. The only other series i've been exposed to (own the entire series) is Cowboy Bebop.

Definitely. The story is engrossing and the artwork superb, although it's definitely not exactly a "cheery" story. Think Cowboy Bebop's Ballad of Fallen Angels/Jupiter Jazz/Real Folk Blues story arc. Also, the soundtrack is amazing. Its soundtrack ranks up there with Cowboy Bebop or FLCL's soundtracks.

I've only seen the first volume but I really like it.

Here's t_n_c's review for it:

Noir is all about Forgiveness

it's pretty decent really

So far i'm on episode 7 and its been really good so far - i love how they use music in it to build up the atmosphere really well

I highly recommend this series...if um...you're into a bit darker material. The characters are amazing... The way they portrayed Kirika's emotions was superb...she didn't say too much...but her eyes expressed a lot. Also...Kirika had the most ingenious ways of assassinating people...it always impressed me. The music was also downright amazing... Of course, I might be slightly biased as the composer...Yuki Kajiura...is my favourite composer...but still...it added a lot. The animation was beautifully clean, and the character development was wonderful. Again...I'd recommend it...it's a series that I would watch over and over again. It's that good...well to me anyway. ^_~
