Star Wars: The Clone Wars Episode 25-26 Reaction

You could watch in release order, but the issue will be the same. You would say, "Why is this episode here? There is no weight to this episode". Jumping around at the show's beginning was meant to set up context. Why were Obi and Ani in that Blue Crystal City in the movie? In season 2, an episode says they went there to help senior Organa. Why did they not have tanks or other big weapons in the film? Oh, an episode in season 1 showed the clones can be traitors, and he blew up everything except for the heavy cannons. Why are we watching a season 3 episode? Oh, it shows the clone's training and introduces Hevy, who dies in season 1. It added value to Hevy's death, shows 5s and Echos bond, and avoids the confusion of "Hey, we are in Season 3. Why is Hevy here? Didn't he die already?" Finally, Supply Lines showed a Jedi and his clone captain die in their last stand. Ryloth was freed in Season 1. Why are they attacked by the "Bad Guys" again in Season 3? Ah, it's because Supply Lines set up the freedom of Ryloth in Season 1. Shows the Jedi are not invincible, the loyalty of the clones, and Sindulas distrust of the Jedi at the end of Season 1.

These eps are an example of why I'll never personally recommend chronological order. Skipping around messes with the narrative for things including character introductions (such as getting Cad Bane's 'earliest' story here before his proper introduction as a character from an episode that was released first). If someone wants to go through the effort to watch them chronologically, I'm not looking to yuck their yay, but it seems like putting effort into deliberately messing up the narrative flow of the series. 

"Hey, it's an anthology series, some episodes take place out of order so don't be confused if a guy dies in a S1 episode but shows up alive in S2 or something." seems like all the explanation you'd need to watch and enjoy the series in release order.
