Movie/OVA series first. TV later.

The series is 26 episodes long. Grouped up into 7 movies (which are basically in an OVA format save that they are all shown in theaters first).

The first movie was shown last weekend and is still showing. At the theater one could buy a limited edition BD (which is almost entirely sold out presently). The normal BD and DVD release on May 25th.

Some station showed the first episode as a sort of promotion for the movie. The movie is the first two episodes.

The next movie comes out on June 30th and will be the next four episodes. (Its BD and DVD come out July 27th). No news yet on when Movie 3 comes out, though I hope it is at a quicker pace than one every 12 weeks. (it be nice if the show started airing one year after the movie release...cause symbolism works. To do that and still have time for theater and BD sales for movie Seven they would need to release faster than that so the last four episodes come out after the the last film. Than prep for the next season by April 2014, as that would fit the timeline perfectly from 2199 to 2201.)

So there are people that have seen episodes One and Two. No one to my knowledge has put up Episode Two anywhere. Aside from a few pictures here and there. Though it does confirm that the BD version has English subtitles.
