Madlax
Volume 5: Convergence

Racked by 12 years of civil war, the country of Gazth-Sonika is overrun by armed rebels, spies, assassins, and covert organisations that take advantage of the chaos to ply their wares - chief among them the sexy female assassin Madlax. Meanwhile, rich orphan schoolgirl Margaret Burton lives miles away in the peaceful country of Nafrece, in many ways a normal high-school student - except for haunting dreams and memory lapses that hint at a hidden connection between herself and Madlax. The thrilling anime series continues to chronicle the parallel destinies of its two heroines in this collection of episodes 17-20.
