Phantom, Requim for the Phantom, Part One
Good animes start with a strong story and peel away the layers to let the audience discover the mystery underneath it all. Phantom turns the usual on its head by giving us a string story n episode one and ten piling on the layers until you no longer know what story is being told, but you just can’t stop watching. A young tourist witnesses a brutal murder and barely escapes with his life. He wakes up in a dingy room with no memory of what happened or how he got there; in fact he has no memories at all. When an attractive young girl tells him he’s been selected to be trained as an assassin he thinks he’s having a nightmare. the fact that he turns out to be good — very good — at killing people doesn’t help. And if you think you now where the story is going to go, pay close attention because the end of Part One will floor you.
