I think I need to buy this. A rip of it came by and I took a look. The second BD is four episodes, 03-06. That covers the Lightning 11 arc, and I was curious about something. Spoilers below the fold.

UPDATE: I just ordered BD 2 and BD 3.

Odette II is on a practice cruise, full of high school girls. Their original orbit was to go around Tau Ceti, around the outside of the planet "Sand of the Red Star", back around Tau Ceti returning to Sea of the Morning Star.

At a certain point (beginning of episode 5) Marika suggests they change their flight path to stay on the sun side of Sand of the Red Star instead of passing over its night side.

It's always bugged me that the computer orbital plots they show at various times through there had the orbit wrong more than right. Usually they showed the orbit inside of Sand of the Red Star before ep 5, and outside of it later, which is exactly wrong.

There were also a couple of examples of Engrish:

That one got fixed, too:

But this one didn't. From the BD:
