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

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.
