It’s officially the start of a new year, and it looks like 2024 might have huge plans when it comes to the world of anime. From brand-new movies to returning shows, the industry has plenty of entertainment coming up. As you might have expected, Netflix will also launch some of these 2024 titles since the platform has greatly invested in anime. Some time ago, the service gave fans an idea of how 2023 was for anime titles, with the report revealing the series that were the top performers on Netflix.
Netflix directly gave the update since the site also releases regular rating information now. By the end of 2023, Netflix broke down the top animes through the number of views they received per hour. Miles Thomas Atherton of Anime Ltd. revealed the data in an infographic that reveals the surprising details to fans. From the looks of it, Netflix got plenty of views through Record of Ragnarok.

The fighting anime gathered 11 million views for every hour that it banked. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba comes second with 10.8 million views per hour. You can check out 2023’s top 10 anime projects on Netflix by going through the list below:
Record of Ragnarok – 11 million views per hour
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – 10.8 million views
Vinland Saga – 5.7 million views
Jung Ito Maniac – 5.6 million views
Oshi no Ko – 5.4 million views
Cyberpunk Edgerunners – 4.7 million views
Gudetama – 4.5 million views
Chainsaw Man – 3.9 million views
Hell's Paradise – 3.4 million views
One Punch Man – 3.1 million views
From the list above, it can be seen that the top two animes were quite close to each other, but Record of Ragnarok took the win instead. This is quite impressive considering the reputation Record of Ragnarok has in comparison to Demon Slayer, which is among some of the biggest IPs in anime at the moment. The list pays tribute to Netflix exclusives, with Record of Ragnarok being one, along with Junji Ito Maniac, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Gudetama, Hell's Paradise, and more.
