re: Kirika's suicidal save... My thoughts:

Like the fact that Mireille had to overcome her vengance, Kirika had one last thing she had to overcome too. Throughout the whole series, she'd been ready to die. To be killed by Mireille. She was too well programmed to survive to be able to allow herself to be killed by any of the attacking forces (even after the Final Guidance when she was walking through the cemetary), only Mireille would be able to do it. So even though her last act was to try and prevent Altena from being able to harm Mireille any further, she really still wanted to die. She needed to want to live.

...or something like that.

Anyway, it's great to see a smattering of Noir debate still going on; I thought that since I happened upon the show so late that I missed it all!
