Hello, friends! Many thanks, first of all, to rukbat3 for assembling the survey that was used to vote on the numerous issues that cropped up due to airing\/production orders for this show; it made assembling this list much easier. Thank you to everyone who discussed this in the comments, too; you’re all greatly appreciated and have made me even more excited to watch this show and talk about it with all of you.<\/p>\n

Obviously, this is not a definitive order or a sanctioned one; it’s just the one I’ll be using to watch the show in as faithful and sensible of a manner. I have also been warned to avoid many of the DVD covers and the opening bits in the menus (also thanks to rukbat3 for that!), so I should be good to go at this point to remain UNSPOILED throughout my viewing.<\/p>\n
