Okay, you all know how much I’ve been pushing Phantom on you guys. Just in case you didn’t know, it’s a new adaptation of an assassin visual novel, and it’s bloody awesome (if you can get past the awful first episode and “slow” pace).
That’s the first OP, which has been present for the first 19 episodes. If you blink you might miss my loli Cal. However, with episode 20, we got a new OP…
This is the new OP for Phantom ~ Requiem for the Phantom’s last 7 episodes, AKA the Drei arc. KOKIA’s Karma was the first OP, and it fit the assassin thriller to a T. While this somewhat upbeat song, complete with mostly slice-of-life style scenes is a far cry from what the series is about, it fits perfectly with at least the first episode of this arc. But I guess you really need to follow the series to fully appreciate it.
I’ve been thinking about watching this, but haven’t gotten around to it for no particular reason.
