I'm not necessarily talking about you but there are plenty of UC fans & even reviewers out there suggesting to newcomers to watch
CCA on Netflix first before watching
HF. I personally think it's a mistake and a real bad idea. I imagine plenty of newcomers will either 1) be put off by CCA due to its so-fast-pace story & wall-to-wall action and decided not to watch HF thinking they'll get more of the same or, 2) being excited after watching CCA's wall-to-wall action only to be disappointed by HF's lack of action quantity.
Either of those result can't be good for newcomers. Of course, there is a 3rd possibility that newcomers will just enjoy both CCA & HF and eat them all up but I think only those with very-open-mind will react that way.

Yeah, Hathaway killing Chan was the absolute libido-driven dick move. Although, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise as the T-shaped Psychoframe & her death helped Chan to ascend to Newtype-relm helping Amuro pushing back Axis. Also, for all we know, Chan's T-frame is still flying in space looking over humanity, just like the Phenex

HF movie (at least this first one) is a the result of a dynamite duo of Yasuyuki Muto (
Unicorn OVAs writer &
Re:Rise savior) & Shouko Murase (
Ergo Proxy, Argento Soma, Genocidal Organ, etc). So I knew they'd do a good job adapting the (first) novel. They even trim some unnecessary fluff like the tired (pun intended) car chase in the novel.
