I've beaten all of them going K1 > 0 > K2 ... 7, and K1 was by far my least favorite due to just how awful some of the boss fights are. The penultimate fight is the worst in the series, I hated it that much.

You are typing these words out and in the previous breath trying to convince new players to start with it.

I know of people who started the series with Kiwami and stopped because of the Chapter 3 boss fight and how they couldn't get through it.

You have to get out of the mindset of someone who believes everyone is just guaranteed to play every game in a series. Very few people have that kind of time.

Some people start with 0 and skip to 7. Some people literally play 0 and stop, and that's fine, so long as they get to experience some of the best the series has to offer.

Don't recommend people start a series at the worst game to "just get it over with" because these games are LARGE GAMES.
