Code-E and Mission-E?

They're not episodic. Just two more anime I'd completely forgotten about until you posted this profound comment. One of Studio Deen's more obscure series.

One of my fave series, two seasons branched with a number of OVAs, Darker than Black, weirdly episodic in that the stories told take roughly two episodes each for the first season, the second is shorter but more episodic.
Baccano, a tale told somewhat out of sync from what I remember, like a giant jigsaw puzzle of a story that slowly pieces together, so, very weirdly episodic.

Death Parade fits in this category.

That's true Darker than Black starts out episodic and is a really great series. It's better after it loses its episodicity though, I think.

The only one I've seen that might fit the criteria that I can think of might be Trigun. There's only really one event to remember (maybe 2) in it that happened between the protagonist and the main antagonist of the anime, but it's hard to really forget. Otherwise though it's definitely episodic. I've seen the anime all the way through, so unless you mean absolutely episodic then I'd recommend this if you're willing to make an exception with the event that scars their past which is covered in 1 episode I believe. :^_^: Synopsis(using spoiler tags to save room):
  Spoiler:  
Vash the Stampede is the man with a $$60,000,000,000 bounty on his head. The reason: he's a merciless villain who lays waste to all those that oppose him and flattens entire cities for fun, garnering him the title "The Humanoid Typhoon." He leaves a trail of death and destruction wherever he goes, and anyone can count themselves dead if they so much as make eye contact—or so the rumors say. In actuality, Vash is a huge softie who claims to have never taken a life and avoids violence at all costs.

With his crazy doughnut obsession and buffoonish attitude in tow, Vash traverses the wasteland of the planet Gunsmoke, all the while followed by two insurance agents, Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, who attempt to minimize his impact on the public. But soon, their misadventures evolve into life-or-death situations as a group of legendary assassins are summoned to bring about suffering to the trio. Vash's agonizing past will be unraveled and his morality and principles pushed to the breaking point.

The Big O is really a must and definitely episodic. The ending blew my mind, but the whole atmosphere was so awesome. I'd highly recommend this one. It's also mecha, which I thought you'd like. :dance: Synopsis (I'm using spoiler tags just in case you don't want to read the synopsis or already know/heard of it):
  Spoiler:  
Paradigm City, a city of amnesia and a place of belonging. It remains populated by forgotten pasts and the ruins of their labors due to a calamity 40 years ago. Shrouded in a fog-like mystery, it is up to people like Roger Smith to shine a light through the mist. Acting as a professional negotiator and suave agent, Roger is a self-tailored ladies man whose only love is for funeral black. However, as he gets deeply involved with his clients, what often starts as a simple negotiation evolves into Roger saving Paradigm from crime and peril.

In the process, Roger stumbles even deeper into the untold folds of the city. As a rule, things are hardly ever as they appear. Serving as gray knight in a gray world, Roger is not without allies. By his side are Norman, a loyal and widely skilled butler, and Dorothy, a human-like android with deadpan snark. Together with the relic Big O, a jet-black mecha of gargantuan size and weight, they help Roger serve iron justice to Paradigm's lurking villains as he discovers the truth about 40 years ago.

The only ones I can recommend that I've seen myself that are episodic really that haven't been mentioned. :sweatdrop:

Acchi Kocchi
Akaneiro ni Somaru Saka
Alien 9
Amaama to Inazuma
Ano Natsu de Matteru
Astarotte no Omocha!
Azumanga Daioh

That should do for the "A" titles I'll have a look at "B" later.
To those just starting on the journey of life I say...
Bang your own drum. Walk your own path. Live wildly. Love fiercely. 
As you near the end, look back with no regrets.
