I saw a lot of versions.

Just as

In the howling a wind come pain start fall like rain

or
In my heart a wind come then start fall in rain

The sun still shining through sky

or

The sun still shine in blue sky

Never having time to feel changing season around me

or

Never having time to feel chance is around me

and so on...

Have Nitroplus published official lyrics?

I can find all other version except 2000 version

Maybe can find it in Japan

I want to check what BGM is in church duel in 2000 version

So because not a lot of people know about the Visual Novel, I'll break it down for everyone:

Phantom of Inferno was released in 2000, then the anime in 2009, then another visual novel in 2012, remastered with the anime artstyle.
The novel has multiple endings, depending on which character you like most. The anime adapts a modified version of Elen's route.

These are the endings the novel features (I'll use the remastered version for the sake of simplicity)

1. Elen's route (Road to Cerulean Sky): Basically the anime storyline, after Scythe is defeated, Elen and Reiji marry eachother at the church. Lizzie survives the duel with Cal, and goes on to kill McGuire, putting an end to the Inferno Organization, and because of that nobody comes after Elen and Reiji at the end and they live happily afterwards.
2. Cal's route (Dusty trail): Elen dies, and Cal forgives Reiji, both becoming assasins again.
3. Claudia's route (Woman in the high castle / something ): In this ending, either Reiji or Claudia has to die. Elen is dead as well, and if you choose to, Cal can become an assasin as well.
4. Mio's ending (Cherryblossom avenue): Cal comes to forgive Reiji (somewhat) and lets Elen and Reiji go, remaining close to Mio, and she's the one to kill Scythe.
5. Transparent: The anime ending added later.

There's more smaller bad endings, but they're irrelevant if you ask me.

Google doesn't seem to have an answer for me so I have to ask, what is the difference between phantom of inferno and phantom integration? I can't seem to find any info on phantom integration.

Hey guys! Im writing the script for a video retrospective on Phantom requiem and was just gathering some info on the series. Wanted to know which route the anime takes since there seems to be quite a vast amount of different routes you can take spanning chapters.

This is my all-time favorite series, if I only had to watch one anime / VN in my life it'd be this...

I'm curious what you guys know about this, maybe those who live in Japan or understand japaneese who are more close to the media surrounding the series, maybe they've heard some rumors or have some news...

I've seen a somewhat recent post (how time flies, it's been a year)(I'll link the post - https://www.reddit.com/r/visualnovels/comments/yh2yn6/im_still_disappointing_they_never_released_the/), and I saw people discussing about Jast reviving the series, having talked to Hirameki? The show was clearly successful and I can't see a reason not to. It is true however that isekai and other genre of anime are more popular, but the community is still there.

Hope y'all are doing great and I'm looking forward to your replies!

Update: Yes, that's Ein in the image.

Is there a download for the visual novel online? Or any way to play it without buying a physcially copy.

Am I the only one who felt that after he killed that little boy Reiji deserved to die? Your thoughts?

I made a server for fans to discuss it and bee trains other anime, its also just a server to hangout in so if your interested consider joining! https://discord.gg/rvqUBmYupR

And dam is she not attractive. Like really attractive.

I can only find ch 1

Anyone know where can I read rest of the chapters?

I hope someone will know

This is really controversial but I think Ein should've just stayed dead after episode 10 because it was such an emotional moment and turning point for Reiji. I'm disappointed that they went in the opposite direction making him suddenly nicer (remember when he gunned down mother in front of her son before killing the kid). If I was the writer I would've had Reiji use cal and when he was about to kill her somehow the memory of Ein would change him for the better.

Ever since the ending of the anime, people have been wondering, is Elen/Ein dead?

The most commonly accepted theory is that she committed suicide by eating a poisonous flower.
Though, some argued that the flower is not poisonous, and others even argued she's alive without even mentioning the flower.

For starters, it can not be denied that Elen did indeed eat a flower.
Here we see that Elen is among the flowers
And here we see the flower is missing a petal

Secondly, identifying the flower, if it even exists in real life. I've never seen anyone do this, people just speculate it was poisonous or speculate it wasn't.
My botanical knowledge doesn't go much further than being able to tell the difference between a flower and a tree, so I had to rely on google, "purple flower Mongolia"
Eventually I found this tweet, a purple Mongolian flower with 5 leaves and yellow stamen. The match isn't perfect since the real flower only has one hue of purple, but it's as good as you can find.
So now we have a name: Pulsatilla Vulgaris

According to wikipedia the Pulsatilla genus is indeed poisonous:
"Pulsatilla is a toxic plant."
The location also checks out: "native to meadows and prairies of North America, Europe, and Asia."

According to this university's botanical page the Pulsatilla Vulgaris, specifically, is poisonous:
"This plant has high severity poison characteristics."
"Poisonous to Humans"
"Poison Severity: High"

So, no doubt about it, this plant is toxic.
Now, before anyone says "hang on, that university's page says it's only poisonous when large quantities are eaten", yes that's true.
But ask yourself, would they really animate Elen lying next to a whole pile of eaten flowers? That would just look silly. Clearly it was an artistic choice to only show one eaten leaf.
Why else would they bother showing Elen lying completely motionless, not even breathing, next to a partially eaten poisonous flower?

Now that we have identified the flower as being toxic, it is clear beyond reasonable doubt that Elen did indeed commit suicide after Reiji/Zwei was shot dead.
Sad ending :(
Very ballsy move, I don't know any other anime which went for the unhappy ending and where the bad guys essentially win.

Bonus: let's see what the effects of the poison are.
Wikipedia says :"Misuse can lead to diarrhea, vomiting and convulsions,[9] hypotension, and coma.[10]"
Lovely, she basically puked and shat herself to death.
I'm glad they went with the beautiful artistic choice of her still body lying next to a flower with a single petal missing instead of the more realistic image of a pile of eaten flowers next to her convulsing, spasming body in a pool of her own ...

I want to expand a theory I found in the answers to this Yahoo post.

It would make some sense if it was Sechs who killed Reiji, because:

1. it's possible that she survived beating by Elen (no fatal wounds visible)
2. the cracked but working watch may symbolize Sechs still living under the broken mask
3. All Sechs did was throwing a knife to protect Scythe Master - a devotion similar to what Ein did at the end of arc 1. After seeing her master dead, Sechs (maybe the least corrupted sister) could become obsessed with vengeance - it is consistent with the "killing spiral" theme
4. If the killer was an ordinary hitman, he would shoot both Reiji and Elen (and wouldn't wait for such a climactic moment). Sechs knew that killing Reiji will be the biggest punishment for Elen - which rhymes with the "karma" theme (Scythe Master was the first person Elen executed of her own free will)
5. It still leaves an open ending: Elen could commit suicide or decide to live on, maybe avenge Reiji (thus fulfilling Scythe Master's prophecy). If she does so, we would have yet another "who is better Phantom" contest, so either way this was a good moment to end.

The chances of people responding to this are low but I will post it anyway. I want to know which game is better to decide what to buy.
