Black Cat

 
This show is about a guy named Train Heartnet who went from assassin to sweeper(bounty hunter). Before Train was a sweeper he was one of the top assassins for an underground organization called Chronos which controlled one third of the world's economy and its goal was to gain world peace. Train's job as one of the chronos numbers was to either protect the people who supported the organization and eliminate who was against or was trying to destroy it in any way. Now his number was thirteen and their are twelve other numbers before him so what I'm saying is Train is already hard enough to beat as it is they call him one of the best and he's not even top dog or cat. Now it makes you wonder if this lower ranking assassin is this strong then how strong is number one?

Train has been doing this for quite some time and has earned the name Black Cat because of his stealth, speed and quick and merciless deaths that he gives to his victims. But, later he comes across a carefree sweeper named Saya and they become quick friends. The more Train hangs out with her the more his morals start to change and its starts showing up in his work. This no doubt catches the head leaders of Chronos's attention and which eventually leads to him leaving the organization for good.

But when he leaves he doesn't know that his partner,Creed, has been watching him when he goes out to see her. Creed then comes to despise Saya saying that she's a witch that has somehow put a spell on Train that has led him to 'forget who he is' and make him leave Chronos. Creed murders Saya in hopes that if she is dead then Train would go back to his old self. Instead,though, Train swears that he will one day avenge her death leaving poor Creed to sink more into the pit of denial and thinks that even though the witch is dead the spell on him is still strong and that he will return for him when the spell eventually wears off. After, that Creed vanished without a trace.

Train then becomes a carefree sweeper himself and roams to town to town capturing criminals. Until he meets Sven Vollfied an ex-detective turned sweeper with a strange magical eye that can see a couple seconds into the future and Eve the genetically engineered bio-weapon that's in the form of a little girl that has the ability to change her form at will.These three partner up and continue in their sweeper adventures until Creed shows up again and with his own personal group at that. Creed wants to destroy Chronos and take over their business so he can change the world in his own image and has decided that Train should be fighting by his side when he does. Of course, Train refuses to join him and, of course, he thinks that the spell still hasn't been broken yet.Now with Creed within his sites he's going to have to choose between staying in his carefree sweeper life or take revenge like he promised to do in order to avenge Saya's death?

This is a very good anime and I would recommend this one to anyone who loves anime. Also, this show is a anime and a manga so you guys can read it or watch it or both, its your choice. Thanks for reading!
