LYING JUST TELL THEM WHAT ORDER TO WATCH THINGS IN JFC
I literally can’t provide anything like that though?
If you’re confused by the profound references, no sequence will actually clear that up. Both seasons and both movies deal with very distinct philosophy concepts and even then they pop in on a variety of different notions too, so no sequence will clear them up.
On the other hand, if it’s world timeline you’re confused by, there is literally no chronology possible that clears it up easily. Different episodes offer different tidbits about the setting, some places have flashbacks, and a few places are just explained as they come up. There’s no way to clarify the setting easily.
And finally, the chronological order of watch doesn’t help anything really. There’s very little foreshadowing and very little overt consequence, with characters only being subtly nudged in certain directions at best.
That said, if you want a chronological order of things:
GitS:Stand Alone Complex 1st Gig
GitS:Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig
GitS: Stand Alone Complex
