In between production, Saber Marionette J spun off into other media. A manga serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Dragon Age magazine ran from October 1996 to November 1999,[5] and was collected into five volumes. A concurrent radio drama was broadcast and the show's original soundtrack was published by Kings Records.[6] The show was also the basis for a PlayStation fighting game called Saber Marionette J: Battle Sabers, developed and published by Tom Create.[7]
