The author, studio, or other information that will help identify the work

Produced by Bee Train
Directed by Kōichi Mashimo
Written by Ryoe Tsukimura

A brief explanation of the setting and premise (no spoilers!)
The series follows the story of two young female assassins, the Corsican Mireille Bouquet and the Japanese amnesiac Yuumura Kirika, who embark together on a personal journey to seek answers about mysteries concerning their past. At first, they seem to be only vaguely related to each other, but there are clues and hints given throughout the series that there is more going on behind the scenes than at first glance.

A brief summary of why you like it and/or why you think others might like it

I really liked the story and characters, especially developing of relationship between Mireille and Kirika. Also there are a lot of well-directed action scenes with amazing music. Plus great noir atmosphere.

How much of it you've experienced (particularly for longer series)

First season.

Other works that it reminds you of, if applicable

Phantom the Requiem of Phantom, Madlax, El Cazador de la Bruja.

Any other information that might help someone know if they should give it a shot

This anime is the first in "girls with guns" trilogy, and,in my opinion,is the best.
