Six separate continuities, two unconnected shows with almost the same name released on the same service in the same year, and one genuine sequel that skips thirty six years.
Start with Revelation. That is the answer for almost everybody, and the reason this page is long is that the franchise has six continuities and no single order through them. Below, the spine is the one story that actually continues; everything under Outside the main timeline is a separate world that starts over.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
Fifteen episodes, about six and a half hours, both on Netflix. They are a genuine sequel to the 1983 cartoon but are written to re-establish everyone before breaking them, so they work cold. Telling a newcomer to begin with 130 episodes of 1983 syndication is how you lose them.
130 episodes, episodic, dip in anywhere. Season 2 adds no arc, so the first 65 are plenty. This is what Revelation continues.
The film is the She-Ra pilot and introduces Adora as Adam's twin, so it goes first. The 1985 She-Ra is the same continuity as the 1983 He-Man and crosses over with it. The Christmas special puts both leads in one story.
A continuation on paper only. It strands He-Man on another planet with a new cast, and Revelation disregards it entirely. Skip it unless you are completing the set.
Then what? Everything under Outside the main timeline is a separate reboot and none of it is required for any of the above, or for each other. The 2002 series is the best of them. Tales from Eternia is free on YouTube in four minute pieces and is the lowest commitment way to sample the franchise that exists.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. If you would rather not do it by hand, a free account syncs every device you sign in on automatically.
The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.
Every franchise you have touched, in one code.
Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.
This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.
Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet works too, and an account does the same job without you having to remember a code.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.
Yours, on every device you sign in on.

Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
Nothing is charged and nothing is cancelled, because SagaList does not take payments. What goes is your account, your email address and the progress synced to our side. What stays is everything ticked in the browser on this device.
