Such a good series, it's lamentable that the number of good walls is so limited. I wish there were some good high resolution walls of some of the "mistery" elements. Thanks for everything posted so far by the way.

It is sad that there are so few. After a lot of lurking and surfing the interwebs I've only got 55 and most of them are low quality shit.

I have about 100 of varying quality. If someone can point me to a free (as in freedom) picture dumper, I could upload them. If you want them.

madlax has fewer, and is better imo
go figure.
i suggest universal madlax/noir/kino wp threads cause of very cool art style they use
(even though kino is a trap)

I lol'd. It's a shame the "pixels" don't line up, but there's a seed a brilliant wallpaper in there.

1600x1200 is going to be though, but I'll look.

Plot of roughly the first half episode follows. I've tried to keep it spoilerfree, but skip this to ---- if you're spoiled easily.

Contract killer Mireille Bouquet gets an e-mail from a Japanese schoolgirl Yuumura Kirika. "Make a pilgrimage for the past with me." As she is poised to dismiss it, a melody starts to play... the effect on Mireille is visibly very emotional. They meet up and are sucked into this pilgrimage for the past.
Telling anymore of the plot would be spoilerific, so I won't.

---- End of spoilers.

The first few episodes are a bit erm... episodic, but later the global story enters the focus more.
Expect gunfights.
Expect feats of almost superhuman acuity.
Expect exotic locations.
Expect a bit of drama.
Expect realism.
Expect mystery. I think this is the closest you'll get to what it would have been like had Umberto Eco directed an anime, although recently a few other contenders have been released.
As for the quality of the series, I can only say that the backgrounds are colourful yet atmospheric and really evoke the various settings. The characters are well-designed. Action sequences are convingly animated. The soundtrack is superb: opening by Ali Project, background by Kajiura Yuki.
I was hooked after the first episode. Apparently I wasn't the only one, as most reviews I've read were rather lauding.
As a final note, this is a serious series. If you need comedy to keep going, don't expect to find it here. The main characters may provide a quip once or twice, but no more than is realistic and without detracting from the serious atmosphere. Similarly there are no rivers of tears either.
Don't watch the fansub that calls Mireille "Mireiyu Buke" - even when they gradually catch on, they'll screw up again later in the series. Also, Wikipedia is full of spoilers.
