We watch a lot of anime, every year. At the time of this writing, we've covered 280 anime so far in Oops All Anime's history. Naturally we've also watched a lot of anime on our own time. Add all that together, and we have some THOUGHTS. We also have a huge database to compare new anime characters against. But, y'know? Sometimes a good tsundere just works. Let's decide the Best Anime Character of 2022.

The Nominees Are:
Anya Forger (Spy x Family)
Cucuruz Doan (Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan's Island)
Gamma 1+2 (Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero)
Pan (Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero)
Inari Fushimi (Inari Kon Kon)
Kongming (Ya Boy Kongming!)
Miorine Rembran (Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury)
Suletta Mercury (Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury)
Nazuna Nanakusa (Call of the Night)
Priscilla Asagiri (Bubblegum Crisis)
Rebecca (Cyberpunk Edgerunners)
Sorawo Kamikoshi (Otherside Picnic)
Sunset Shimmer (My Little Pony: Equestria Girls)
Wolf Bete (Miss Kuroitsu From the Monster Development Department)

"Six, this list is chaotic, how did you even organize this?" Well it's alphabetical by character name except when two characters are from the same show/movie, in that case they jump the line. It's also alphabetical by first name because some characters only have one name. Deal with it (sunglasses)

Coming up next, we have my (Six's) personal Game of the Year list hitting Tuesday, then That's Our Jam as our next podcast on Wednesday. But oh, what's this? There are TWO music podcasts this year? Well, I guess Friday will be fun too, won't it.

Here's our write-up for the winners!
