	Anime News Network - Madlax (TV)
		There, a mercenary called Madlax plies her trade, with almost supernatural skill.
		As separate as their lives may seem, the two are connected by ties of mystery, and by a holy book that is also sought by the shadowy organisation, Anfan.
		As Margaret and Madlax follow the path of their destiny, they come ever closer to uncovering the truth - with no guarantee that it is a truth they can bear to learn.

	Gamerz-Edge - Madlax Volume 1 Connections Anime Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Madlax is a deadly assassin who not only is in a league of her own, but with the classic anime heart of gold.
		Madlax kills without remorse, but is always curious as to why she has to kill her victims and in some cases has to meet her victim before she does her dirty deeds.
		As with Noir, Madlax and Margaret leave the audience questioning to the last minute, and as one piece of the puzzle is shown to the audience a new piece emerges to change the outcome of the series.

		Madlax is a supremely-skilled super-agent sent to the civil war-torn country of Gazth-Sonika to ply her trade.
		Madlax is also more flighty and playful than Mireille ever was, though she is just as professional when it comes down to business.
		In fact, Madlax and Margaret don’t even appear in the same episode until the very end of episode 2, and the only factor which seems to link them is common possession of a bizarre picture, so it is not apparent from this volume how their paths are going to cross.

	Madlax Vol. 1 Connections - SNK - Capcom dot com
		Madlax, a show from the people who brought the world.hack, Tsubasa, and Noir, is about two women, both with memory loss, who are inexorably intertwined with a civil war in a South American-esque country called Gozthsonika.
		Madlax, as a character, is very curious about life, and generally engages other characters in conversations about life, as if trying to reclaim some sense of lost humanity, a common trend in the assassin mentality, but none the less interesting.
		But there is hope, for the English dub ADV has provided for Madlax is stellar, as each actor sounds as if they take their character and role very seriously, even matching the numerous subtleties of their Japanese counterparts in both emotional inflection and sheer delivery.

		So, why did Margaret return only able to say "Madlax?" Well, Madlax was actually her father's codename, and it seems he was assigned to stop Friday Monday from whatever evil plan he had devised.
		Even Nakhl has realized that there is something different about Madlax, and she may not have a real reason to continue on.
		Madlax has realized that Margaret's only hope lies in her and she heads off into the most dangerous territory on the battlefield, but she's not going alone.

		While Madlax and Margaret continue their separate lives, there are the first signs of their stories beginning to come together here, as Margaret's unusual attachment to an old red book leads to Madlax becoming involved in the search for its origins.
		Madlax is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.78:1 and is enhanced for anamorphic playback.
		Fortunately, Madlax has her own contacts and is able to trace the missing shipment to a small shipping firm, where she finds Chris Krana, an individual who may be able to help her but who has also attracted the attention of Limelda's superiors.

		Madlax has some SERIOUS issues man. I’m sure there’s going to be a storythread on how she gets her name, which bears (in part at least) a fitting description of her mental state.
		Madlax seems to be a combined derivative of the 2 animes.
		In fact Madlax is quite the nice girl, albeit a lonely one who yearns for something as simple as a date.

	Madlax Volume 1: Connections (DVD) - Anime Reviews - The Armchair Empire
		Dark, brooding, and filled with tortured characters who were interesting for not only in the ways that they could move, but for the ways that they couldn’t it was an amazing anime to watch, assuming that you didn’t become too impatient.
		Madlax for all intents and purposes, is both the thematic and spiritual prodigy of Noir – the animation is a carbon copy, the main show focuses on strong but tortured women, and uh, features assassins.
		Madlax is currently staying in a city whose calm is thanks to a tenuous peace agreement.

	Underland Online
		Madlax has undoubtedly been filled with some quite unexpected turns, and though the series initially seemed to be another action anime in the same vein as the fan-favorite Noir, more recent events have taken Madlax into somewhat paranormal and supernatural realms.
		Madlax is herself, and yet she is another that is contrast to her.
		Madlax becomes touching in some ways, to an extent it also becomes thought provoking, but most importantly the last three episodes are riveting and incredibly captivating.

		It is this confusing and frustrating state which has driven Madlax to discover her true existence.
		The three episodes on this volume of Madlax firmly move the show into a new realm where the metaphysical elements of the past are now the strong point.
		Madlax continues to be a rather enjoyable show now that the previously mentioned orbits of the characters have all come so close to each other that it's causing some of them to fall off completely.

		Interestingly, it seems as if Madlax, left to her own devices, would've never thought anything of actually investigating the cause of the war, or taken some action to stop it.
		Whether his goal is to have Madlax put a sizeable dent in Anfan is yet unknown, but he does have something big in mind.
		Madlax's indifference towards Gazth-Sonika's situation is certainly unsettling, especially since she kills so frequently and without remorse.

		Female gun-for-hire Madlax and unassuming student Margaret have discovered that their seemingly different lives share a deadly connection, one that they must uncover and solve before the dark forces opposing them end their lives forever.
		Madlax is the type of show that I meant above in that is determined to ride to coattails of its precesor Noir, a stylish action/drama about the mysterious connection between two top notch assassins.
		Madlax seemed too passive for an assasin plus the fact that she found it necessary to change into an evening gown in the middle of the jungle in order to shoot someone.

	Avalanche Online - Madlax
		Madlax for instance sounds far too american pop-teen brat for her character and Carrosour (never sure on the spelling of that one) who should have a swuave, deep pitch in his voice sounds airy and camp...good thing either tracks selectable, an I was curious but not expecting much.
		Even though MADLAX as a whole is a very elegant an stylish series, it works quite well on the civil war element front of it all, which is quite integral so it's all good.
		It could be that it's close enough to shoujo for it to be what you're after, since Madlax is known as much for her beauty (especially in a dress...hehe) as she is her gunplay and all the character designs do definetly have a definite edge of swuave shojuo attraction to them.

	DVD review of Madlax: Volume 3 - DVD Town (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The most important distinction between “Noir” and “Madlax” is that, in the former series, Mireille (the blonde assassin) and Kirika (the amnesiac schoolgirl) meet and team up right off the bat in order to discover their linked pasts and identities.
		The Madlax character design, the general animation, and the music are key to this series’s draw--“Madlax”, like “Noir” and the “James Bond 007” franchise, makes assassination glamorous.
		Madlax is hired to protect Vanessa, and through the coincidence of having protected Margaret’s bibliodetective, Madlax becomes aware of several connections to Margaret, whom she does not recall ever meeting.

		Madlax went from a ropey start to a gripping middle and a slightly anticlimactic final hour due to revealing too much too late so we’d already guessed it.
		Madlax acknowledges her own immortality as she destroys two squads of soldiers (including tanks and helicopters!) in the Cocktail Dress of Doom.
		Madlax, meanwhile, has miraculously recovered from her bullet wound without a scratch and sets out to find Margaret, cutting remarkably non-lethal swathes through the fighting Gazth-sonikans.

	Madlax 1
		Madlax dons a nightgown and beats the crap out of everyone.
		Instead of presenting a compelling "search-for-truth" or "seek-revenge" lief-motif, Madlax merely illustrates the one-sided mentality of a jaded mercenary.
		Although I think that the idea of a elite assassin is cool (and always gives rise to neat Matrix-esque scenes), the thematic framework for this series is simply too vague to be compelling.

	AnimatedBliss.com Forums: DVD Review: Madlax - Volume One
		In some ways Madlax seems to have a goal of intentionally confusing it’s audience so that its viewers will believe the reason why they were confused in the first place is that the show, being highly intelligent, was the reason they just couldn’t understand it.
		Madlax seemed like an interesting idea for a show from the get-go but little seemed to have taken place within these first four episodes.
		It is possible that the show will continue to get better until it eventually reaches a mark of fine craftsmanship but at this point in the series I was left feeling confused as to where everything was going and curious as to if the creators knew what was coming next themselves.

	THEM Anime Reviews 4.0 - Madlax
		Into the fray comes the mercenary assassin Madlax, a beautiful blonde woman who is apparently heavily trained in firearms, but may be seen in combat wearing impractical field equipment, like evening gowns, while decimating entire units of professional soldiers.
		The big difference is that unlike Noir, Madlax fails to capitalize on its biggest assets, instead delivering a lackluster drama that is sluggishly paced and schizophrenic.
		The "action" is so over-the-top as to cross the line between cool and stupid; one scene has us believe that Madlax hugging her semi-auto and firing a burst from it (without aiming, mind you) signifies the off-screen demolition of a fully loaded attack helicopter.
