{"product_id":"phantom-blu-ray-dvd","title":"Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom Blu-ray \u0026 DVD","description":"A Japanese tourist witnesses a murder in the United States and is captured by the assassins responsible. The organization is called Inferno — a criminal syndicate working to consolidate the American underworld under a single conglomerate. The tourist has no name, no memories, and no apparent value. What he does have is an instinct for survival that impresses Inferno's top operative: Ein, a young woman who has herself been stripped of identity and turned into the perfect killing machine known as Phantom. Rather than eliminate him, Inferno's enigmatic weapons designer Scythe Master decides to make him useful. Renamed Zwei, the amnesiac is trained as Ein's partner and deployed as Inferno's second Phantom. Surviving means complying. Reclaiming his identity means surviving long enough to find a way out — if one exists, and if the person he is becoming in the process is someone worth recovering.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPhantom: Requiem for the Phantom is a 26-episode psychological action thriller produced by Bee Train — the studio behind Noir, Madlax, and El Cazador de la Bruja — directed by Koichi Mashimo, and based on the visual novel by Nitroplus. It aired on WOWOW from April to September 2009 and represents Mashimo's fourth and final \"girls with guns\"-adjacent production, darker and more morally complex than its predecessors, with an original ending that departs from the visual novel. The score was composed by Yuki Kajiura — returning from all three Bee Train trilogy entries — delivering one of her most restrained and atmospheric works. Originally released in North America by FUNimation across two half-season DVD\/Blu-ray volumes; the Complete Series Blu-ray + DVD Combo was released January 31, 2012. A S.A.V.E. Blu-ray followed June 4, 2013, and an Essentials Blu-ray on June 2, 2020.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNotable Staff \u0026amp; Voice Talent\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDirector:\u003c\/b\u003e Koichi Mashimo (Noir, Madlax, El Cazador de la Bruja, Sorcerer Hunters, Gate Keepers, Captain Tylor OVA)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOriginal Visual Novel:\u003c\/b\u003e Nitroplus (Chaos;HEAd, Steins;Gate co-developer)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eScreenplay:\u003c\/b\u003e Koichi Mashimo \u0026amp; Yoshino Hiroyuki\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eStudio:\u003c\/b\u003e Bee Train (Noir, Madlax, El Cazador de la Bruja, Arc the Lad TV)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMusic:\u003c\/b\u003e Yuki Kajiura (Noir, Madlax, El Cazador de la Bruja, Fate\/Zero, Puella Magi Madoka Magica)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOpening Theme:\u003c\/b\u003e \"Karma\" by Kokia\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eEnding Theme:\u003c\/b\u003e \"Transparent\" by Kokia\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eJapanese Cast:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n- Toshinori Arima as Zwei \/ Reiji Azuma\u003cbr\u003e\n- Ayahi Takagaki as Ein\u003cbr\u003e\n- Rina Sato as Cal Devens \/ Drei\u003cbr\u003e\n- Jouji Nakata as Scythe Master\u003cbr\u003e\n- Rikiya Koyama as Lizzie (El Cazador de la Bruja additional cast)\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eEnglish Dub Cast (FUNimation):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n- Newton Pittman as Zwei \/ Reiji Azuma\u003cbr\u003e\n- Lindsay Seidel as Ein\u003cbr\u003e\n- Shay Moore as Cal Devens \/ Drei\u003cbr\u003e\n- Tyler Walker as Scythe Master\u003cbr\u003e\n- Brittney Karbowski as additional cast (Akame ga Kill!)\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBlu-ray Features (FUNimation Original Complete Series Combo)\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n- All 26 Episodes — Complete Series\u003cbr\u003e\n- Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack\u003cbr\u003e\n- FUNimation Previews\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSpoken Languages:\u003c\/b\u003e English \u0026amp; Japanese Audio, English Subtitles\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eEdition Details\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eJapanese Title:\u003c\/b\u003e ファントム〜Requiem for the Phantom〜 (Fantomu: Rekuiemu Fō Za Fantomu)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRuntime:\u003c\/b\u003e ~650 Minutes (Complete Series, 26 Episodes)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDirector:\u003c\/b\u003e Koichi Mashimo\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBlu-ray Release Year:\u003c\/b\u003e 2012 (U.S. Complete Series Blu-ray + DVD Combo, January 31 — FUNimation); S.A.V.E.
