Kirika Yuumura quotes from Noir

That's an excellent field dressing. Did you train as a medic?

Kirika

I don't know.

This is your house.

Kirika

Yes...

But it isn't your house.

Kirika

Yes. Yuumura Kirika, that's my name.

But it isn't really your name.

Kirika

Yes.

[At Kirika's school]

I've made the arrangements to leave the country.

Kirika

Thank you.

So are you about finished?

Kirika

Mmm...

I just can't imagine why anyone would want to say good-bye in a place like this.

Kirika

You're right.

"Even when...I was in a crowd, I was always alone."

Kirika

Huh?

"I'm afraid that's not mine. It's...Ernest Hemingway, I believe."

Kirika

I'm ready to go now, Mireille.

[Later, in France in Mireilles apartment]

You know what I do for a living, and for that I can't let you go. Do you understand what I'm saying?

Kirika

Yes

Well, then I will help you. They are sure to come after us again. I have something I want to ask them. And when all this is over, I will kill you.

Kirika

I will be waiting for that moment.

[A room at the Manor]

Kirika

The smell of blood...

That's right. Over the years, many lives have been taken in this room.

Kirika

It goes beyond this one room; this whole place seems imbued with the aura of death.

Yes. You lived here once you know...

Kirika

Of course. It is my home, isn't it?

Yes. Would you like to come see my room?

[Chloe's room]

We used to live here together, although it really was only for a short time. We were trained and raised separately. You carried out missions even when you were very young. Including the mission in Corsica. That was a task worthy of a maiden with black hands, the figure of Noir. After seeing you that day, I swore to myself that I myself wanted to be like you. To be shoulder to shoulder with you to be venerated as the true Noir.

Kirika

Are you saying that you became an assassin because you saw me?

Yes.

I now return this to your hands.

[ Altena gives Kirika her gun. After a flashback, Kirika realizes Altena gave her her first gun and sent her on her first assassination mission. Kirika points her gun at Altena.]

Go ahead and shoot. If that were the ask assigned to you, a Noir must be able to shoot, even if that target is myself. Just what worries you, child? You must never falter. The world of man is always bound in darkness, and in years to come, you will see many black deeds with your own eyes. But you must never look away...not from that darkness, and not from the world full of suffering. We have an obligation that we must bear, both you and I. It is our shared destiny to bear the most unforgivable of sins together. But you already know this, don't you child? The answer that you have been searching for is within these walls. You have returned to your home, this is where you belong, it's time to accept your world. Those gathered here are all family and together we serve that cause.

Kirika

You're saying...I'm a sinner because that's what we must do...this family?

Yes, the sin within the sin, that is why we live together in darkness. For this is the only place where you will ever know peace.

[ Kirika falls to her knees.]

Kirika

The man within the man, the love within the love, the sin within the sin.

[ Altena embraces Kirika.]

Poor little one. Do not worry, child. Once you come to accept this life, all will be right once more.

[Amongst the ruins, Chloe prepares to kill Mireille]

In the past, this site was used by those who gave their lives for the darkness and presented themselves to the selection of the True Noir. You will die here. In other words, this is fate. Goodbye, Mireille Bouquet.

[Kirika shoots knife out of Chloe's hand, and as a result Chloe attacks Kirika]

Why...? Why?! you LIAR!

Kirika

Cloe, stop. Please.
