Mardock Scramble: The First Compression, マルドゥック・スクランブル 圧縮, Mardock Scramble: Asshuku, Mardock Scramble: The First Compresion
Due to the high crime rate in Mardock, a new law called "Scramble 09" has given police carte blanche to take extreme and otherwise illegal measures to revive crime witnesses. With this in mind, they allow a professor to bring Balot back from the brink of death by reassembling her entire body with reinforced synthetic fiber. When she finally wakes up, her confused mental state eventually turns toward revenge as Shell is revealed as her killer.
