K Watch Order
9 entries · · community-maintained
The K watch order can be confusing because the franchise spans six movies and three episode blocks, so this page sorts them into the correct order. Begin with the film run: Lost Small World, R:B, Side: Blue, Side: Green, and Memories of Red, which build the backstory before the television arc. Then watch the first season, Episodes 1-13, followed by the standalone Episode 1 and the second season, Episodes 1-12, wrapping up with the Circle Vision movie. Front-loading the side films here gives context for the Kings and clans before the main story kicks in, and this chronological order keeps the supernatural mystery coherent. If you were searching for where to start or how K's many movies slot around the two seasons, this sequence places every film and cour exactly where it reads best, including all movies and OVAs in the flow.

How this order works
AnimeChrono watch orders put every season, movie, OVA, ONA and special for a franchise in chronological story order, the order the events happen. When an OVA or movie takes place partway through a season, the episode range is split so it sits where it belongs. Entries you can skip are marked optional, and each order says where to start. Release order, sorted by air date, is a secondary view once every entry has a date. The orders began as a hand-curated set, and episode counts and air dates come from AniList. Fans maintain the orders from there. Any signed-in user can edit one. Edits from trusted contributors go live right away and the rest are reviewed first. Every change is versioned and can be reverted, and each order shows when it was last updated and last checked.
