Anime Guides & Watch Orders
Last updated:
Watch orders and best-of rankings, each dated and reviewed by our editors.
What guides does OZZO.TV publish?
This hub holds 49 anime guides: 46 watch orders and 3 best-of-year rankings. The watch orders between them cover 258 individual entries — series, films, OVAs and specials — each placed in viewing order with its year, episode count and a note on whether it is essential or optional. 6 of the franchises are rated a complex watch order, among them Fate Series, Monogatari Series and Gundam (Universal Century), where release order and story order diverge. 6 guides also carry a filler list, giving the exact episode ranges that can be skipped without losing the plot. The best-of pages cover 2024, 2023 and 2022 and are editorial picks rather than a score ranking. Every guide is dated and reviewed by the OZZO.TV editorial team, and the review date is printed on each page so you can see how current it is.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an anime watch order guide?
An ordered list of every entry in a franchise — TV series, films, OVAs and specials — with the sequence to watch them in and a note on which ones the main story needs. Ours cover 46 franchises and 258 entries in total.
Should I watch anime in release order or chronological order?
It depends on the franchise, so each guide states which it recommends. Release order is the default because it matches how the story was revealed; 6 of our 46 franchises are rated complex, and those are the ones where the choice actually changes the experience.
Which anime guides cover filler episodes?
6 of the 46 watch orders include a filler list with the exact episode ranges and a total filler percentage, among them Naruto, One Piece and Bleach.
