The 50 Best Anime Openings of 2022

Narrowing down the 50 best anime openings of 2022 was a challenge, to say the least. But, just as Winter 2022, Spring 2022, Summer 2022, and Fall 2022 top 10 openings lists did, this one takes everything into account (theme song, animation, composition, artwork, direction, replay value, etc) when given their rankings. So without further ado, here are the best 50 anime openings of 2022 (according to me).
