Whoa, never thought those two would get licensed. They had trouble getting aired in Japan.

Will buy to go with the earlier Kampfer release.

This is pleasing news, I thought the first series was alot of fun, especially the visibly disemboweled mascots / puppets with the various famous seiyuu voicing them. (their name escapes me at the moment.) Another Sentai title to look forward to.

I'm only about half way through the first season and it doesn't seem to be above a PG-13 rating. Is this one of those OVA-type releases where there is A LOT of nudity compared to the regular anime series or does the plot get really controversial?

I wish they would dub the series.
I have find the subbed for free everywhere.
I see no value in subbing a series when you can watch it online for free

Yes, dub the series and put them all on Blu-Ray! I'll buy it in a heartbeat even if it's a limited edition!

Hopefully, Sentai will come out with a release in the future that adds these two eppies to the main series.

I was starting to get worried, though - it had been a whole 8 days since Sentai's last license announcement and I was afraid they had gone under or something.

I'm hoping Sentai adds a hentai line instead, I can think of much better smut than what they've grabbed lately.

I'm definitely getting this, even if it was slightly less fun than the first series (thought that's mostly due to the hindrance of being only 2 episodes long)

After Sentai released the two-episode Rozen Maiden: Ouvertüre, I thought there was a good chance they might do the same with this.

They have one already, it's their Happy Carrot label, though it seems they forgotten all about it. Crying or Very sad

.

You can also find dubbed anime online on many sites, legal and illegal, so what's your point?

It was very disappointing in that regard. Even when there is supposed to be nudity, there is no actual nudity. The girls get frisky, but not much different....

German dub of Kämpfer
http://youtu.be/lUPvtZsU9Z0?t=19m45s
Interestingly they keep the honorifics in the dub
