Maintained by the AnimeChrono community. 9 entries in chronological viewing order.

The Black Jack watch order threads two TV series, the OVA episodes, three films, and a special into one chronological guide. Begin with the first 12-episode series, then the 17-episode run, followed by the block of OVA episodes. From there the order moves into the films — Black Jack: The Movie and Capital Transfer to Heian — before the Inochi Wo Meguru Yottsu No Kiseki special, then The Two Doctors of Darkness film, and finally The Child Who Came from the Sky OVA. Because the movies, special, and OVAs are spread throughout rather than saved for the end, following the listed order is the reliable way to keep the standalone cases in sequence. If you want the correct order including all movies and OVAs, this is where each installment fits along the Black Jack timeline.
