rocklobster's Review Main Review The world of Lacry'ma is becoming unstable. It's only hope lies in the Dragon Knights, a group of warriors who are searching for the Dragon Torque, an object they believe may bring salvation to Lacry'ma. But when Kurasu, one of the Dragon Knights, meets Haruka, a girl who possesses the Dragon Torque, he is reminded of her counterpart in his world. Will this complicate the mission? And what is Haruka's role in this cosmic play? Noein is one of the most enjoyable series I have ever watched. It has beautiful animation and the story is well-told. Every character's motivation is described so well that you fully understand why they are acting the way they are. If you like stories that have rich complexity, check this out. I doubt you will be disappointed. Comments Music Nicely done. The opening theme is mesmerizing and the battles are accented by gothic chants. The music is a cool as the show itself. Sub vs Dub The dub a hit or miss. Some characters sound good, but others sound horrible. Manga none Related Movies Violence Details There is very little blood. It should be noted that because their world is fading, the Dragon Knights' bodies are unstable. They are able to transport between worlds using a "pipeline" that helps them to maintain stability. But if they separate themselves from it, they risk literally disappearing or losing body parts. Two members of the Knights die, but they do not lose blood. (They literally fall apart) Language Details The show itself contains rare bad language, but the outtakes have much more. (see Sexual Content) Nudity Details none Sexual Content Details An Easter Egg which can be accessed by selecting the “Noein Volume (insert volume no. here)” circle on the main menu in included with each volume. It provides a collection of humorous alternate dialogue outtakes, many of which are actually quite funny but most of which are definitely not PG-rated in content. The show itself contains no sexuality. Religious Material Details A god-like being called Noein is attempting to bring all worlds into his world, called Shangri-La. Although Shangri-La does have something to do with Paradise, the void Noein inhabits is a a place where nothing exists and all is illusion. |
