It's very simple. Tokyo Ghoul -> Tokyo Ghoul √A -> Tokyo Ghoul:re part 1 and part 2

The second season is an anime original history but in :re they followed the manga again.

I would recommend you to read the manga because the anime treated this history like garbage. Worst season is by far the last one, mixing poor animation with a horrible pacing (They ""adapted"" more than 100 manga episodes in 12 episodes)

So please read the manga xd

Just read the manga.
Watching the anime should be a choice because it was poorly adapted. Wasted potential as I usually say.

If you're dead set on watching the anime before reading the manga, simply watch the anime in order of release.
1: Tokyo Ghoul
2: Tokyo Ghoul √A
3: Tokyo Ghoul:re
4: Tokyo Ghoul:re Season Two

Just be aware that the anime did not fully capture the story, especially in √A. I always enjoyed Tokyo Ghoul, and :re seemed fine to me, although a bit rushed. But like several others have mentioned, √A pretty much goes off and does its own thing, while still being required to watch in order to understand the rest of the series.
I wish you good luck, as this series has a pretty special place in my heart, both the anime and the manga.

Season 1 is the only worthwhile season to watch. I still think √A has its merits but its not thats good.

I kinda feel like I should state this, the question was “which seasons...should I watch” and at no point said anything about the manga. This is like telling a person who asked something about movies to just go read the comic or book.

Idk, just thought I should’ve pointed that out.

Read the manga before watching the anime. Even I don't like reading manga but i'm glad that I took the time to read the manga as the anime left me with several questions. The manga is just a masterpiece, I read it around 7-8 months ago and its still fresh in my heart :) Tokyo Ghoul is one of the very few anime/manga that i would rate a perfect 10/10 :D

Read the manga anime is trash except S1 which is acceptable re didn't showed anything which was important to the story in the manga . If you are dying to watch anime just watch S1 cause if u watch other seasons they will just spoil manga for you . And manga is one of the best ever written . Rest is up to you . Well you should his read the manga is you ask me .

1. Tokyo Ghoul
2. Decide if you want to watch √A (if not skip to step 3)
3. Decide if you want to read the manga (if not skip to step 4)
4. Pretend re: didn't exist
5. Done

I hate to be that guy but in this case just pelease read the manga instead, it's way way better than the anime. I watched the anime first then read the manga and the difference is abysmal.

Yes, but if the movie is bad, people will tell everyone to read the book. Some have already answered which order is correct, we are just telling him that the manga is better. It's up to him.

If you want to truly appreciate the series read the manga but since you do want to watch it then I would suggest watching Tokyo Ghoul>√A>Re:season 1>re:season 2. I would also add that I would personally ignore both √A and Re seasons. They made such a confusing mess out of the series after the first amazing season. This is of course just my opinion so take it with a grain of salt. I'm always up for others to form their own opinion from their experience.

@RaZaSlackZ the only season of Tokyo Ghoul which is worth watching is s1, the other seasons are pretty bad but i definitely recommend you reading the manga because it's my most favorite manga series, the anime skips a lot and a lot of important parts and s2 which is TG √A will confuse you even more so plz read the manga because it's one of the best horror manga out there

Watch it! All the seasons are good IMO I haven’t read the manga so I have no opinion there but if you don’t want to shell out $200 for the manga set watching it is a better option.

I felt a sense of accomplishment after RE that’s why I rated it a 9/10 lol. Having never read the manga I’m looking at it from strictly an anime standpoint.

Like other's said, first two seasons are pretty good, but the rest is awful. Rushing and skipping lots of stuff made the rest terrible.

To be honest, I think season 1 and 2 (Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul √A) are the only ones worth watching. Season 3 and 4 are just confusing, and a bit too much characters to keep up with. And it's not even that good. I watched the whole series for the pleasure of it, but didn't enjoy it that much. Just stick with the first two seasons.
