Subsequently the show also aired on AT-X, TV Aichi, and TV Osaka.〔 Funimation Entertainment is streaming the series for its North American audience. The anime is based on the 2000 video game Phantom of Inferno. The series is about a Japanese national who gets kidnapped by an assassin syndicate called ''Inferno'' after he had personally witnessed an assassination while visiting the United States. ''Inferno'' is a criminal organization attempting to unite all known underworld mob gangs into one conglomerate. In order to achieve their goal, ''Inferno'' deploys its assassin operatives codenamed Phantom. Among them is an amnesiac girl named Ein and the Japanese national, who was given the name Zwei as his codename after being brainwashed of his previous memory. The anime's plot is more complex than the video game as there are underlying meanings and symbolism involved but they are thoroughly explained in detail in the episodes list below as not understanding these will result in the ending making no sense and being ambiguous to the viewer. An announcement regarding the show was first announced in the January issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Newtype magazine with Yoshimitsu Yamashita, Mutsumi Sasaki and Yoko Kikuchi being the main animators with Bee Train being in charge of animation. Soon afterwards, a promotional video of Phantom ~Requiem of the Phantom~ was broadcast on Biglobe.
