After airing in Japan last year, North American anime publisher Aniplex of America have confirmed they will be releasing Plastic Memories across two Blu-ray sets starting in July 2016. As of writing this Japanese-dub exclusive set will only be available on Blu-ray, and there are no confirmed plans for a cheaper DVD release.

This collection will include Episodes 1-7, and will also come with a small set of on-disc extras, a set of collectible illustration cards and packaging illustrated by the shows character designer Chiaki Nakajima.
A few months later on September 27th 2016, Plastic Memories Volume 2 will launch. This set will include Episodes 8-13, in addition to its own small collection of on-disc extras, illustration cards and packaging illustration. The price for this volume is slightly cheaper, with an SRP of $74.98 USD.
Orders for these collections are currently being taken by RightStuf.
About Plastic Memories
In a world where there was a slight advancement in science.
After failing his college entrance exams, 18 year-old Tsukasa Mizugaki is offered a position at the renowned SAI Corporation due to his father’s connections. SAI Corporation is known for its production and management of androids that possess human emotions called “Giftia.” Tsukasa’s position is in the Terminal Service Department where their main job is to recover Giftias that are close to their expiration—it is a graveyard department in every sense. To make matters worse, Tsukasa is ordered to work with Isla, a female given any responsibility other than serving tea to her co-workers.
