MADLAX

After losing all his comrades, a young Galza fighter Pete attempts to evade Royalist cordons and get to safety. His chances are rather slim, but a strange young woman who appears out of nowhere, single-handedly deals with his pursuers, but still refuses to tell him her name may change the situation a bit...

Margaret Burton's life goes as usual, that is, with no changes in sight, until the day when her former tutor Vanessa Rene's present makes one of her seemingly forever lost memories come back.

Madlax is assigned to assassinate the Royalist Commander-in-Chief, Guen McNichol, but there is something bothering her: the customer in this case is Commander McNichol himself.

Margaret's classmate Anna Moré kills her own father and then walks out of a third floor window. Police investigator Maclay Marini is convinced that there is a reason behind this murder and is ready to give everything to find the truth.

A boy from Nafrece, Chris Krana, secretly travels to Gazth-Sonika in hope to meet his father, of whom he only knew from his late mother's words. And, since Chris' father is thought to be Min Durk, the leader of Galza, Madlax is hired as his bodyguard.

A classmate invites Margaret to a soirée, but her omniscient maidservant Elenore soon finds out that some suspicious individuals are on the guest list, too...
