A new and deadly breed of covert agent walks the streets. Known as Contractors, these assassins and spies wield bizarre supernatural powers to carry out the dirty work of others. They thrive in the underworld, between rumor and reality, their loyalties always in question. One among these operatives is more mysterious than the rest the masked killer BK201, the Black Reaper. His true identity and intentions remain unknown, but as his path weaves through the shadows and alleys of Tokyo, blood is spilled on both sides of the law. It's a new age of confusion, and the rules of engagement have changed. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)

At first glance this draws on the slightly worn-out theme of an alternative version of modern Japan where not everything is as it should be. But on the second viewing, I was captivated by the amazing characters who took hold of me and wouldn't let me go. The charismatic Hei/Li, the ethereal Yin, and the determined Kirihara drew me into this world of contractors, puppets, and the Syndicate, and Darker Than Black turned out to be very pleasant and surprisingly intimate sci-fi. It works both in terms of the long-term development of characters and in the side storylines of the individual enemies, and even though the finale satisfied me more than enough, my excitement for the next series is in full swing.

Rjúsei no Gemini (2009) (S02)
Where the first series mixed Dollhouse and Matrix themes, Gemini comes with a paraphrase on (later directed) Hanna by Joe Wright. The retreat into the background by familiar faces doesn't bother and after a few episodes, in which there is no shortage of exaggerated emotional outbursts, Suou also becomes a competent guide to the new places of the depressingly charged world. Darker Than Black is lucky to end on a high note. The ambiguous ending left me pleasantly puzzled, but after longer consideration, I simply can't interpret it any other way than a sober happy ending.
