SMH at all you people.
Why can't you make like Vald and watch Turn A Gundam?
Why does nobody else watch Turn A Gundam in here?
How many other people even acknowledge Turn A's existence?
Turn A Gundam is really interesting. I don't know that I like it all that much, I've never been a fan of Tomino's style outside Char's Counterattack and the Original Gundam (specifically the trilogy) but I am enjoying watching this weird, supposedly future world unfold.
It also feels like the general bizarre world of Turn A Gundam better fits Tomino's style and characterization. Normally I have issues with the way people behave and express themselves in Tomino Gundam, but the odd behavior almost fits here.
Three Episode Rule/Episodic Content Etc.:
So. I didn't watch the video, nor do I care to, I rarely watch youtubers thoughts on anime, but I personally don't work by the rule of three. Part of that's for reviews, it;s impractical to watch every show for 3 episodes. Instead I watch 1 Episode, write a preview, and then reevaluate my thoughts 6 episodes in.
But I also don't agree with it entirely for casual watching. I strongly feel that first episode needs to be good. It needs to have a hook and suck you in. It doesn't have to be amazing, it just has to be decent. I think it's silly to do three episode rule for say, something like The Reflection, if you're already feeling like your time is wasted and you're not enjoying the series. So I don't really ascribe to the idea that if you've tried a show you're 'locked in' for three episodes. I mean, if the three episode rule works for you that's great, but I think people should feel they can nope out at any time.
Edit 2: I forgot to actually talk about Episodic Content:
As for Episodic anime I don't have any issues. I understand the appeal for a serialized story, and personally generally prefer those, but yeah, Episodic can be wonderful too and not every story needs an interwoven connecting narrative.
