The Great “Girl With Guns on the Run” Trilogy Rewatch

December 23rd, 2016

If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I’ve finally done something I promised to do years ago. I rewatched Noir, Madlax and El Cazador de la Bruja back to back. And it was good. ^_^  (From Sean G, a link to concise, amusing summaries of the main characters.) I said as I began […]
