Trivia / Noir

• Playing Against Type:
  • TARAKO usually plays Moe characters. She plays Mistress Altena here.
  • Fun fact: Mashimo Kouichi, during recording, referred to Tarako as "Altena-chan".
  • Same with Tiffany Grant, her English VA, who is best known for Asuka and other young characters. The voice director, who happens to be married to Tiffany, said that he knew she could pull off the level of creepy required for Altena when she once spoke in her sleep about putting a body on the table.
  • The entire English cast. During an interview with the cast (on the last DVD) the director asked the actresses why they think they were cast for the roles. They all looked at him quietly before throwing that question back into his face and promptly talked about how each character was different than what they were used to playing. Hilary Haag spoke on length on how hard Chloe was for her.
• Star-Making Role: Shelley Calene-Black as Mireille Bouquet is what got people to know her aside from her stint with Sorcerer Stabber Orphen.
• What Could Have Been: Currently, a planned live-action series is put on hold. Starz mentioned that creative difficulties is cited as one of the reasons why they're having a hard time developing the story.
