In this tutorial, I will guide you through how to install Kaito Kodi Addon. I have used an Amazon Fire TV device in these instructions. However, the process is the same on all Kodi-supported devices, such as Fire TV Cube, FireStick Lite, FireStick 4k, NVIDIA SHIELD, Android TV boxes, Windows, Mac, tablets, and smartphones. Kaito works with Kodi 19 Matrix.
What is Kaito?
Kaito addon for Kodi is a relatively new addon. It is focused on anime and was released in 2020. Kaito is a third-party Kodi addon developed by the team that produced the famous Seren Kodi addon.
Some Kaito addon features resemble Seren’s, such as splash screen, item browsing, next-up dialog, and source selection. However, it has enhanced functionalities unavailable on Seren, such as an airing anime calendar and a useful skip-intro feature.
Kaito does not host the content available on the addon and is not affiliated with any content owners. The Kodi addon searches websites for anime and scrapes links that it offers to users.
You should note that Kaito is still in its beta stage. It would be best to use Real-Debrid, Premiumize, and AllDebrid to get the most out of this addon. These online services offer users access to websites that are usually restricted and host shows, movies, and anime. Of these multi-hoster services, Real-Debrid is the most popular.
Attention Kodi Users!
Governments and ISPs across the world monitor your online activities. If you use third-party Kodi addons, you should always use a good Kodi VPN and hide your identity so your streaming experience doesn’t take a bad turn. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone.
I use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick, PC, Mac, and Smartphones. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 4 months free and save 61% on the 2-year plan.

Is Kaito Kodi Addon Safe and Legal?
The Virus Total did not show anything harmful about the Kaito addon. Here is the antivirus scan result:
Kaito isn’t available in the official Kodi repository, and the legality of unofficial Kodi addons often falls in the grey zone. FireStickTricks.com can’t verify the legality of Kaito because it is hard to scrutinize every content available on the platform.
Kaito collects streaming links from other sites that host the content. Streaming that content may or may not be legal, depending on the copyrights and licenses the source owns for your region. It’s nearly impossible to distinguish between legal and illegal links accurately. Since your government and ISP know what you stream, you could be in legal trouble if you are not careful.

Before you start streaming with Kodi Addons or Builds, I would like to warn you that everything you stream on Kodi is visible to your ISP and Government. This means, streaming copyrighted content (free movies, TV shows, live TV, and Sports) might get you into legal trouble.
Thankfully, there is a foolproof way to keep all your streaming activities hidden from your ISP and the Government. All you need is a good VPN for Kodi. A VPN will mask your original IP which is and will help you bypass Online Surveillance, ISP throttling, and content geo-restrictions.
I personally use and recommend ExpressVPN, which is the fastest and most secure VPN. It is compatible with all kinds of streaming apps and devices.
NOTE: We do not encourage the violation of copyright laws. But, what if you end up streaming content from an illegitimate source unintentionally? It is not always easy to tell the difference between a legit and illegal source.
So, before you start streaming on Kodi, here's how to get VPN protection in 3 simple steps.
Step 1: Get the ExpressVPN subscription HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it free for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for a full refund.
Step 2: Click HERE to download and install the ExpressVPN app on your streaming device. If you are using a FireStick, I have given the exact steps starting with Step 4 below.
Step 3: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That's all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for Kodi.
The following are the steps to install Kodi VPN on your Fire TV devices. If you have other streaming devices, follow Step 1-3 above.
Step 4: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE (if not subscribed already).
Step 5: Go to Fire TV Stick home screen. Click Find followed by Search option (see image below).
Step 6: Type Expressvpn in the search bar and select when it shows up.
Step 7: Click Download.
Step 8: Open the ExpressVPN app and Sign in using the email ID and password that you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription.
Step 9: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s all. Your FireStick is now secured with the fastest VPN.
