Sentai Filmworks also revealed the details for its other January releases at the panel. The company will release Mardock Scramble: The Second Combustion on Blu-ray Disc and DVD, and the release will include the theatrical edition and the director’s cut edition. The company will also release Bodacious Space Pirates on Blu-ray Disc and DVD with an English dub. Additionally, the company will release Saiyuki Gaiden on DVD in January, and the release will include an English dub with the original ADV Films dub cast.
Nice to see. I wish these things could have come out faster than once a year but whatevs. I enjoyed the first one, its failings were more than made up for by the hilarity and the classic dub in my book.
There are three planned films in the series. All three have been licensed by Sentai and should see release in the US. However, the third has not been released in Japan yet, so it will be a little while before we have it here.
I would have preferred the disc and back cover art to be on the front.
The brightly colored, classless, side-boob aquatic scene doesn’t say “dark scifi series with a semblance of a plot”, it says “crappy dime-a-dozen no-effort fanservice show”.
What’s up with this? The art on the first movie’s cover was fanservicey (and classier) while still being dark. Are they trying to market it to a different audience than the first?

I don’t have the BD of the second movie (though I did watch it on ANO), however, to answer your question, you would be doing yourself a huge disservice for neglecting the first movie.
3rd Mardock Scramble Film Blu-ray Slated for September in Japan
posted on 2013-07-06 21:15 EDT
The official website for the Mardock Scramble anime announced that the third film, Mardock Scramble: The Third Exhaust, will ship on Blu-ray Disc with English subtitles on September 25.
The Blu-Ray will sell for 8,925 yen (about $89) and include the complete and theatrical editions of the film, a 42-page booklet, and a 56-page miniaturized theatrical pamphlet.
The film is the final part in a film trilogy based on novels by Tow Ubukata. Sentai Filmworks licensed the trilogy for North American release with English dubbing and subtitles. Viz Media publishes the novel series in one volume in North America.
Looks as though they kept the proposed artwork for this one. A much better choice than the unfortunate art on the previous movie.
I still haven’t finished the second movie. I hate to say it but maybe I should try it subbed and see if that changes anything, though the scenes reminiscent of the kanye west episode of South Park will still be there.
