posted on by Andrew Osmond
Manga UK has confirmed by twitter that the second DVD volume of Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ will be released on March 12, carrying the second half of the series (parts 14 to 26). The first half was released last October.
The series adapts the Phantom of Inferno suspense visual novel software from the multimedia studio Nitroplus and writer Gen Urobuchi (Blassreiter). The story centers around "Phantom," the Inferno organization's most elite assassin — a girl named Ein. Phantom's true identity is compromised by an unwitting male witness, so Inferno brainwashes the witness into becoming another assassin named "Zwei."
The anime staff at the Bee Train studio includes director Kōichi Mashimo (.hack franchise, Blade of the Immortal, Noir) and series script supervisor Yousuke Kuroda (Gungrave, Mobile Suit Gundam 00).
