Why are you trying to watch an episode before it's completed downloading?
BitTorrent is a segmented downloader, not a sequential. If you have 50% of a file, it could be the first 50%, the last 50% or any random 50%.

umm DW i think they're different episodes, if you download a bunch, if 1 episode finishes before the others, you can watch that one first.

Tiger, you have to restart the download, i did it when i was downloading a bunch, you have to restart so the BT isnt still using that data. (after you finish downloading ah my goddess 24, and you want to watch it, quit your BT, open ah my goddess and open the BT download again)

I'd still wait till the full download is done.
If I had other episodes that matched already, I'd use them to resume so that I don't have to re-download.

BitTorrent wasn't really designed for people to be able to preview.

You could have downloaded only the first one (with a client permitting it). But Ah My Goddess does not need preview i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif. It's a great anime
