So, I could feasibly start watching SAC and not suffer from not watching the movie? (did a search for the movie on Netflix and didn't find it. Did they take it down?)
Should also point out now that I've watched the first 11 episodes of Gunslinger Girl on Netflix. Don't know what this board feels about it, but I've generally found it enjoyable.
Gunslinger Girl is widely regarded as very good.
Avoid season two however.
