Hey /cm/, what's your favorite unlicensed animu series? Post pics and tell me why, I'm looking for something new and gar without being 100% illegal.

Mine's Monster. If you haven't seen it and can stomach a serious plotline with minimal omghawt characters, DOWNLOAD NAO.

Akagi.
High in suspense, and you need to stomach the minimal omghawt characters as well until the show makes you realize the style is fukken awesome.
The psychological analysis of characters and crazy gambles are part of what makes this show worthwhile. Try it!
And Akagi himself is actually very hot. Kind of like Johan.

It will also never be licensed BAWW

But anyway, I meant I want my new series to be gar, not necessarily that Monster was.

(Except for fuck yeah, Lunge.)

I've seen stills of it before and was immediately chased away by the art style. But if anon says it's good, I could probably give it a try.

The main character Akagi is interesting because he is portayed as both a ruthless villain, and a savior (especially towards the end). They keep comparing him to the devil, but that's only when he's gambling.
The show is also pretty funny sometimes.

And yes, Kaiji is to be included.

It takes maybe two or so episodes to get used to the style. And suspense.

Really, I'm surprised that so many people get chased away by that art style. I mean I find it actually kinda awesome.

Yakitate!! Japan, a series about bread baking. Full of lulz, and don't dare implying that characters like Brad, Ken and Pierrot aren't GAR. 69 (olololol) episodes.

Seconding. Also the new series Kaiji has much of the same mood. The main character is not GAR like Akagi, but fucking moè.

>Brad
His name is Kid. But otherwise you´re right.

I love Akagi. I didn't find the whole mahjong games interesting, but Akagi's character is awesome. He reminds me a bit of Hiruma from Eyeshield, only closer to reality.

Akagi's artstyle is what attracted me to it in the first place. It wouldn't be the same had Akagi been a omg bishi.

Kaiji has a very different mood from Akagi I'd say, but it's not any less good. I think anyone who liked Monster will like Kaiji, unless the style really is that much of a turn-off.

So between Kaiji and Akagi, which should be watched first? I've got a friend telling me now that Akagi makes references to Kaiji or whatever.

Well Kaiji is the newer show, and so far only two episodes are out. Akagi is finished and subbed completely.
And there aren't any references, not when there already are similarities in style...

I've only watched the two existing episodes of Kaiji, and I'm already in love with this show! Unlike all the over things which aired now, Kaiji makes you sympathize with the character.

bump for yakitate

for OPs question though, all the good ones are licensed or just recently acquired. Monster's manga is licensed, and debateably better because of the freedom of pacing..

OP here. Surprisingly, there is indeed a lot of unlicensed anime that is quite good.

Settled on Akagi for downloading. Woo.
