People have probably been asked this GOD knows how many times, but please, I ask you to be patient and answer it again: I've done my research, but I'm still a bit hesitant.

I watched episodes 1-3, loving it all the way, then I saw 4 which I figured out nearly half-way through was completely out of place. On further research, I found out that they were aired out of chronological order. I find that interesting in an artistic sort of sense.

I also found out that about 80% of people recommend watching it in the "Aired" order first before the chronological. I have a few concerns about watching it in the chronological order, however.

My Concern:
Does it place any "Part II" (Out of two) episode before it's previous one, showing the conclusion before it even introduces the beginning? That's just a hypothetical situation, but that concerns me because it's like playing the last day of investigation and last day of a trial in a Phoenix Wright game: It's completely spoils the entire story, and all you feel is regret for it.

Another thing that concerns me: People insist that the way it was aired was the way it was meant to be watched. I'm fine with that. But I found out the DVD's have the episodes listed in chronological order, not the order of the "Aired Episodes".

That being said, I heard the conclusion is far more climatic when viewed in "Aired Order". That's something that makes me want to watch in that order.

Now, I value the opinions of the members of court records because we have a rather intelligent bunch around here. How would you recommend I watch it? I have watched, so far, episodes 1-4 (In Aired Order). Thanks in advance, I appreciate any help.

EDIT: I now realized I spelled "Melancholy" wrong. I apologize, it's been a long day.

Because it airs the episodes out of order, it airs the chronologically last episode of season one as episode 9. There really is no dramtic conclusion to this season, so you can watch it out of order most likely and still be amused without spoiling the "ending." I've only watched it chronologically, but I know that they make probably the most dramatic episode in this season the last episode in the aired order...

Basically, the first season consists of the main plot from the first graphic novel made up of six episodes and the other seven are a filler (which is good by the way) and five other stories scattered throughout the novel, with one story being a two parter. Basically, these short stories are shown in between the main plot from the first graphic novel and the two part short story is shown in order with an episode thrown in in between. Its not aired out of chronological order though to where you will get immense spoilers beforehand so don't worry. The episodes are just aired the way they are so that the climax of the main plot is the last episode. But there is no occurence of like a part II being placed before a part I, so its fine!
