>it's a "narrator covers 300 years of setting history" episode
What did people think of LotGH when it first came out?
The history episode was the best one. I want to see a fantasy series which does an exposition episode like this every 6 episodes or so.

Nobody watched it in the west when it first came out.

Based as fuck.

It came out as a series OVAs over the course of like a decade. Before the internet. It was a different world.

Absolutely. I'm also glad series didn't BEGIN that way because we don't really need that info dump until we're already invested in the world and then we're wondering how it became this way. Nothing puts me off faster than "as you know" talk in the first couple of episodes to get the viewers on some basics.

I assumed it was beloved considering it was a on-order OVA series released on Laser Disk based on what seems to be a 1:1 adaptation of the novels. One thing you can really tell from the way show was released over the course of almost an entire decade is that someone REALLY wanted to see it animated.

Yes. It also helps with all those people who need a 'recap' episode by not just being an actual recap. It answers peoples questions while giving new info.

If you're going to steal content from Banksy, you could at least have the decency to cite his work.

I think it's tossup between the documentary episode and that Yang inquiry episode when he schools the entire jury.

Intellectual property doesn't exist, if you want his name on the picture, tell him to sign his next works. Or you could simply google the picture and see it's Bansky's art like everyone else.

I really hope the new series (is that planned for 2017 or no?) keeps that, though I kind of doubt it.
