A group discovered a copy of the Funimation, and then illegally redistributed the episode on Wednesday — almost a full day before the episode premieres in Japan. The able copy contains Funimation's logo and English subtitles. This episode was supposed to premiere on Japanese airwaves on Friday morning at 2:15 a.m. JST (Thursday at 1:15 p.m. EDT). Funimation would have then officially streamed the episode on Thursday at 1:00 p.m. CDT (Thursday at 2:00 p.m. EDT). Some of the previous episodes of Phantom were also available on a publicly accessible server of Funimation shortly before their Japanese broadcast premiere times.
Funimation's English-subtitled version of removing all episodes to implement additional security measures. Funimation is now streaming episode 9, about half a day ahead of schedule.
