Insanely odd for the 2 anime to show up to be an average romcom (with crazy production value) and a good but lesser known sequel.
(Oh NVM I thought this was a list from some website not yours! Still surprised to see MDUD though!)

What other new anime from 2022 did you think were great?
Anime for me in 2022 was, meh tbh. I didn't like Summertime Rendering much and Chainsaw Man hasn't gotten to the good parts of the manga yet. I was suppose to see Bocchi The Rock! before making this list, but ended up getting an ear infection so couldn't.

Dropped Summertime after 5 minutes lol.
But personally, Bocchi the Rock is incredible TV and is my #1 show of any medium this year. And I'm not even usually into anime comedies. It's just that good, glad you're gonna try it! I'm an Attack on Titan fan after the massive story shift in Season 3, and S4P2 aired at the start of the year, although personally I don't like rating something that isn't an entire season.
Otherwise Chainsaw Man would be a decent pick even if, as you said, it hasn't quite gotten to what makes it special yet. Cyberpunk Edgerunners is one that would be worth watching and has near universal praise, and my other 2 shows to hit a 9 were Kaguya S3 (but it's not everyone), and Paripi Koumei, which I thought was an extremely passionate show but it might hit as a 7-8 for others.
From your list I probably have to watch the 2 seasons of Tatami though. I had no idea it was well regarded I never looked into it!
Other than that though, yea there was a lot of meh. Spy Family went from potentially great to just average as it went on, LycoRyco got a lot of hype but was merely good not great (needed some writing cleanup). Personally though Dress up Darling was ok at best, and Gundam and To Your Eternity were massive disappointments

Ignoring some great sequels I thought Chainsaw man was awesome even if it hadn't gotten to some of the good parts of the manga. And I really liked summertime rendering (although I haven't seen the last few episodes). Lycoris recoil was fun. Spy X Family was great.
