The official website for Susumu Kudo and GoHands' Mardock Scramble anime film trilogy began streaming a promotional video and two commercials for the second film. Mardock Scramble: The Second Combustion will open in Japan on September 3. The website already began streaming the theatrical trailer on the same page in June.
In the story of Tow Ubukata's original science fiction suspense novel series, a teenage prostitute named Rune Balot (Megumi Hayashibara) is murdered in an explosion. However, Dr. Easter (Hiroki Touchi) saves her, and Balot is resurrected as an advanced cyborg. Balot takes on the worst of Mardock City's criminals as she looks for vengeance.
Sentai Filmworks licensed the trilogy for release in North America starting this September. Viz Media publishes the novel series in one volume in North America.
