I know a lot of you are and might be confused about the anime’s chronological order, right? Well, tbh, even I was. So, we thought of why not create a guide for you folks to lead you through the journey.
At first, we would want you to be familiar with the anime. So, we would introduce you to the anime first and then move on with the correct order of the anime.
Ready then? Let’s begin!
About Re Zero
Re Zero is a very popular anime and one of the most-watched anime in Crunchyroll, Funimation, VRV, and Netflix. Rated 8.25 by My Anime List (MAL) and 8.2 by IMDb, I will only say, guys, do watch this amazing anime now. The drama, fantasy, supernatural and psychological anime is adapted from a light novel.
Subaru unexpectedly gets dropped into a fantasy world after leaving the convenience store. He is dazed and in shock and more shock gets across him when suddenly he is attacked by some goons. With no weapon at his side and with only his grocery items and a no network phone by him as he gets teleported, he is beaten brutally by those thugs.
But is fortunately saved by a beautiful girl who was pursuing them as they had stolen her insignia. Now in order to thank her for saving his life, he decides to join her in her journey to get back what belongs to her from the first.
But what will happen when they get brutally murdered and Subaru is reawakened and is shocked to find the same happenings repeating. What awaits next and will be able to save themselves from history which is repeating again?
Now, that you know about the anime, let’s get into the order of the anime. But if it sounds really confusing to you still let me ease things out for you. Although the anime has many sequels and parts, believe me, they are not at all confusing. And most importantly with passing seasons and episodes, it gets more and more interesting.
So, you will get to see the correct order as provided below. I am positive that it will ease things out for you. I promise, so keep going!
1. Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- (Episodes 1-11)
Okay, so this is the very first season of the anime. This one has 11 episodes in total and is also known by the name of Re: Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu. The anime follows the story where the hero travels to another world that is the world of fantasy and fantastic creatures.
This would be more or less a parallel world connected to our very own universe.
I have already discussed the story with you, you will find it in the above section. The episodes run for 25 mins each. And is available on Crunchyroll and HiDive.

This is the movie version. The movie aired in 2019 and is rated 7.60 by MAL. The watch time of the movie is 1 hr and 16 mins and you will find it on Crunchyroll and VRV.
The land is the home to dangerous beats who live in the snow. Puck is a spirit who helps a girl out of the prison. Now surprisingly her featured matches with a witch who destroyed the world years back. Now shunned for so long she finds company in her rescuer.
But what will happen for Emilia when the Arbitrator of the world, the spirit, finds her? Will she be locked again or death awaits her?
Now please note that the season which is under heading number one, I broke it and added the movie in between. Just for your idea; watch and if you’re looking forward to binge-watch it. You can anyways watch the 25 episodes anime and then watch the movie. But if you’re looking for the perfect order then, I would recommend watching in the order as presented by me.
3. Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- (Episodes 12-25)
This contains the other half of the anime. As I said I divided the season into two parts and added the move in between. So, this part will be the continuation after the 11th episode and completes the first season.
The anime has 13 episodes in total and is there on both Crunchyroll and VRV. The watch time is 25 mins each.
I will move on with the next show, I mean the next sequel.
