Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 1/24 - Romantic Killer

1/6
I feel like this one has been a little bit buried in fan discussions because it lives on Netflix, & while the show looks fun from its trailer, it doesn’t look like it brings much new to the RomCom genre.

However it does, in my opinion, by simply doing things better than other shows in its genre. But what do I mean by that?

Anime Fall 2022 #Ranking 2/24 - Bocchi The Rock!

1/3
I’d never thought I’d put a high school rock band #anime has my number two for the year.

But how could I not? When said band anime not only does right by musicians/music, but is also damn funny & heartwarming? When it experiments with animation styles & techniques to convey the characters’ feelings? When it’s so perfectly captures the mental feel of social anxiety, & externalizes it into hilarious & surreal imagery?

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 3/24 - Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury

1/4
I have never watched a Gundam anime before this one - go ahead and revoke my anime fan card now - but it makes me want to check them out if any of the rest of them are this good.

The Gundam fights are great, the politicking & back room maneuvering are interesting, and there many pertinent themes.

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 4/24 - Chainsaw Man

1/2
Not beating around the bush, Chainsaw Man is an anime masterpiece. Particularly in cinematography & animation. It manages things that are rare to see even in quality movie productions, much less animated shows.

More than that, while it has a very immature & over the top aesthetic and treatment of violence & sex at first glance, giving the show time to explore them reveals a surprising thematic & character depth.

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking -
Entering the Top 4

From here on in, in positions 4 to 1, ask me on any given day and my answer for which show deserves which spot may very well change.

These are the cream of the crop, and the shows that I think absolutely any anime fan (who is old enough to handle violence) should give a shot.

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 5/24 - Akiba Maid War

1/3
What if 1990’s Akiba was the site of intense, merciless, and bloody yakuza turf wars? Now, what if those yakuza were actually animal and space themed maids cafes?

Now you have a sense for the concept of this wild anime.

Anime #Fall2022 Ranking 6/24 - Mob Psycho 100 (Season 3)

In the final season of this #anime, Mob confronts the realities and responsibilities of his powers, & what it means to truly accept himself.

The season was full of both fun and emotional moments, great action, & good themes. It was a great send-off for these characters, & provided yet another banger opening. I’m going to miss them.

If you‘ve not watched Mob Psycho 100 yet, do yourself a favor and change that.

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 7/24 - #SpyXFamily (Season 1, Cour 2)

While the second half of season one of this #anime does not have the novelty factor to boost it as high as the first half did, it remains just as sweet, funny, and heartwarming as it was in its terrific beginning.

The Forgers are a wonderful little faux family slowly becoming a true found family. I love them all, and I will watch this show until they stop putting out episodes.

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 8/24 - Raven Of The Inner Palace

1/2
In this beautiful #anime, set in a fantasy world inspired by ancient China, a mysterious courtesan who holds a special position in the Inner Palace, reluctantly helps the new Emperor, among others, by solving supernatural problems and mysteries.

But who is she, really? The emperor wants to find out.

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 9/24 - Reincarnated As A Sword

1/2
#Anime don’t often focus on father-daughter relationships or dynamics (and when they do it’s too often creepy), but this show does so very well, and does so, somehow, between a person reincarnated as a living sword and a young #catgirl named Fran.

While the sword, called Teacher, is technically the MC, #Fran is in many ways the real MC and the heart of the show.

Anime Fall 2022 Ranking 10/24 - The Eminence In Shadow (Season1, Cour 1)

1/3
This #anime surprised me. The trailer looked good, & the concept was amusing, if hard to explain, but I still wasn’t expecting it for the top 10.

Let me try to explain it as best I can - The MC always wanted to be the big power in the shadows who, unbeknownst to the world or good guys, is the one making it possible for them to win - the “Eminence in Shadow,”pulling strings.

Anime Fall2022 Ranking 11/24 - Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War (Season1, Cour 1)

The return of the Bleach anime has been everything that I was hoping it would be. The pacing is excellent, the art and animation are fantastic, and the characters and plot feel stronger than they did in the manga.

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 12/24 - #ToYourEternity (Season 2, Cour 1)

The first cour of the second season of this #anime wasn’t as enrapturing as the first season, but then that is a very high bar to clear for me. Even still, it was a great watch.

The Nokkers felt more menacing in season 1, but the threat they represent remains - and the continued conflict between them and Fushi gain interesting new layers.

I’m done writing the mini reviews for the remaining 12 #anime of my #Fall2022 seasonal #Ranking.
Hopefully tomorrow I can start getting them posted so I can talk more up-to-date about the anime I’m watching rn.

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 13/24 - #DoItYourself!!

This #anime is the definition of cute girls doing cute things. However, it doesn’t force cuteness with big eyes, sparkles, and over-designed outfits. Instead, it delivers sweet character interactions, bonding over hands-on #DIY crafting, and a generally #wholesome vibe.

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 14/24 - #ImtheVillainessSoImTamingTheFinalBoss

This #isekai #anime really surprised me with how good it is. #Aileen is a fantastic proactive protagonist, who knows what she wants and goes for it. She isn’t content to sit on the sidelines and let fate come to her. The fact that she is the one who pursues a #romance with #Claude helped me get emotionally invested, and their relationship felt meaningful.

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 15/24 - #PuiPuiMolecar

I know - it’s not really an #anime, but… It’s my list, so nya! :eeveecoffee:

This one isn’t complicated. It’s about felt stop-motion cars that are also moles that make guinea pig sounds.

The episodes are minutes long, funny, and overwhelmingly cute. It’s charming. It is a warm blanket and I loved it.

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 16/24 - #MyMasterHasNoTail

A sweet #anime about the power of storytelling which centers on a terrific main character in #Mameda - a clever and determined, but naive young #Tanuki struggling to find her place in a modernizing world during the #Taishō era.
(1/2)

Anime #Fall2022 #Ranking 17/24 - #MoreThanAMarriedCoupleButNotLovers

To be perfectly clear, this #anime’s premise is ridiculous and bonkers, so when I say that this #romantic #comedy has a lot of heart, and some genuinely good characterization and relationship dynamics, you know I mean it.

The main characters are very likable, and I genuinely feel the dramatic tension over which of the female leads the MC, #JiroYakuin is going to end up with.
