Wizards of the Coast has included a total of 45 anime art cards within the Jumpstart 2022 set, showcasing a number of Magic: The Gathering cards that are worth money on the secondary singles market.
Packed with popular MTG tribal themes throughout history, the Jumpstart 2022 (J22) set contained 51 new cards, reprints, 46 themes, and 121 possible pack contents. In addition to the 45 anime art cards, there were another 25 that showcased new art.
