Whoa! This anime takes place in 2009-2010! (no joke)


In episode 4, The Sound of Waves (~ 11:00 mark), you can see the date of birth of Rosaly Hammond: August 2, 1994. Her age is 15. Do the math and the year for that time would be 2009-2010.

I don't know about you guys but that's pretty amazing. Although I have heard that dates and these things are usually messed up by the the creators and writers...

Yup. I've seen some posts that deny that the on-screen evidence is true, but that goes against Occam's razor.

It seems Random to place it in the near future like that, with no references to any new technologies or anything. I never really even payed attention to dating Details.

I thought Kirka was only 16, cause Rosaly Hammond seems more than just a year younger.

I think that Kirika is only 16 or 17 in Noir's "present" timeline. Chloe is also 16 or 17, and Mireille is 19 or 20. The Corsican hit (murder of Mireille's family) took place 10 years in the series's past, making Kirika and Chloe 6 or 7 at that time and Mireille 9 or 10.
