Highest Rated Anime Shows First Released in 2022
Includes both TV series and Mini-series. I'll add a release with few ratings if it has episodes catalogued. Just sort list by IMDb rating to be safe, ratings change quickly. I'm always adding new titles. Ordered by IMDb's usual overall rating instead of the Top 250's alternate weighting system. If you're viewing this list on the IMDb mobile app, the IMDb rating sort doesn't include hidden decimals like the desktop version does, so shows with the same one decimal rating are sorted randomly on the app only.
