| Very intense episode! It started with Alex's dark memories and they all those fights started! I hope they do a 2nd season! 8/10 |

Rachmaninow said: Went to the manga and checked how much they adapted. 5 volumes exactly it seems, and it was adapted 1:1. Potential for season 2 there. I wouldn't be so sure about that, cause rumors are that Manglobe filed for bankruptcy today. |
 |
| Some really good moments in this episode, but a really awkward way to end things. If Manglobe really did file for bankruptcy, then... well... it doesn't necessarily mean they're going under... but they might take on less risky projects, and even though Gangsta garnered a lot of popularity at first, in the end, it's gotten enough of a mixed response from people that a season 2 would be more risky than not, sadly. :( Of course, with this ending, I'd still want to see a season 2 happen, and if they already have the licence for the manga, perhaps they'll still go ahead with it, instead of trying to get the licence for another series... still, the fact that they haven't announced anything yet isn't a good sign. Here's hoping, though. |

| This anime didnt really live up to my expectations. It turned out to be a show with a messy plot and awful pacing. They didnt bother at all to properly explain most of the things that is happening especially how the mafia system works, leaving its audience clueless most of the time. And to end this with a cliffhanger is like blatantly telling the viewers to read the manga. Manglobe very rarely makes second seasons. |

| This has to be the one of the most weakliest endings I've ever seen..seriously, wtf was that?, did the producers forgot they had 12 episodes to work with?. meh show, gonna miss the OP though. |
| Throughout episode 1 to 12, is there heavy censorship? |
 |
| I don't understand, does MAL have a wrong number of episodes or what? this felt like a normal cliffhanger for next episode.Seriously, i'm lowering my rating if that's the case. 6/10 and no more.Gonna read manga which i can imagine being much better, since i liked the plot itself. |

| In the 200s for 11 episodes and then boom fell off a cliff. Freaken Charlotte is ranked higher than this. What a disappointment. |
| Yikes. Did Gangsta kill Manglobe? Now I feel like a dick for complaining about the ending. |
| Great start, meh middle, great ending. 8/10 overall since what's there is really well done but there's so much more that should be there. |
| Jumping in Headfirst - I hear reading it causes immortality. Warning. Reading may not actually cause immortality. |
| What a... cliffhanger? Letdown? Whatever it is, it wasn't a bad end. Sure, it felt out of nowhere but not so bad that people that it should suddenly lose its ranking so fast. Well, yeah the last episode have been pretty boring though. The characters which seemed so mysterious are turning out to be not-so-awesome or just are taking way too long to uncover... Well, its still a good anime. Enjoyed it. 7.5/10 |
 |
| That was the end??? There better be a second season. Anyway great anime. 8//10 |
 |
| Well, seems like we will never get a second season. The anime studio apparently went bankrupt |
| Great episode. I'm back to liking Gangsta again. The few episodes back was a real shame and pissed me the fuck off. I don't know if it was the gross animation or the fast pacing. I really enjoyed that its back to this consistent pacing. 7.5/10. Season 2 seems hazy now that mangalobe is bankrupt but I do hope someone picks it up and hopefully delivers the same atmosphere and directing as the previous studio did. Also I don't mind the cliff hanger. IMO Better than rushing the fuck out of the last episode and giving me something to rant about just like the previous episodes. |
 |
| WTF?! There has to be a second series to this anime. ... solid story & very interesting characters. |
 |
| No idea what to say about this. I enjoyed this anime sooo much at first, to the point that I thought it could be the best this season but I was disappointed in the end. Gangsta had so much going for it but the second half it kind of died for me. Still a good anime with potential, will read the manga to see if it satisfies on a higher level. 7-8/10 only because i loved the first half. |
| OMG WORRICK , NICK NOOOOOOOO SEASON 2 !!!! PLEASE !!!! |
| Is it just me or has the show gone down hill after the last few episodes. The Deaf dude is weak and Ricky is becoming weaker. I want them to start killing the bastards that killed doug. Man how i hated episode 11. I better hope it gets better from here. Nicolas and Ricky need to be like episode 1 or 2 again. Is there going to be a season 2 soon? |

| a non ending, this isn't even a cliffhanger it is just nothing really enjoyed the series but what i feared happend, we get nothing in the end probably gonna read the manga but this was disappointing. in this case some anime original ending would have probably been better, or atleast add some scenes to have some sort of finale. let ginger kick some hunter ass or something a bunch of stuff is set up but nothing resolved in any way |
| Lol, so many plebs who dislike the fact that they have to read the manga. Well anime original ending would have disappointed manga fans and I really hate when anime ruins source material by rushing/cutting content and making entirely anime original story i.e Tokyo Ghoul. So, I will definitely check out the manga. I advise you to do the same and read it from the first chapter (You never know how faithful is the adaptation until you had read it all). Overall 8/10. Still better than shonen-crap that is Deadman Wonderland(Both manga and anime) which tries to act serious even more than Gangsta, but it is not. |

| Season 2 will clearly never happen. You should be glad they tried to give it a ending in the first place. |
| added the fourth most popular anime onto this site |
| 6/10 |
| Well motherfucking hell. This ended so unsatisfying š I oughta say that this was the best episode of this anime for sure, the second half was stunning. From emotion to animation. Fucking fantastic. Worick was amazing this time around, together with that other guy, they made the best of this episode. I'll give this a final rating of 9/10. Surely the best summer anime and it definitely needs a sequel which I'll be watching for sure. |
 |
| Damn that ending was just one helluva cliffhanger :o Worrick better survive >_> I hope this will get a 2nd season, but I'll definitely start reading the manga soon-ish anyway to see the difference. One of the better shows this summer, 8/10. |
 |
| Alright final episode, too bad Manglobe is no more. Never will see a season 2. |
 |
| Just to clarify to the straight up idjits in this thread; ANIME ORIGINAL SUCKS PLZ STFU 4 LIFE THE ANIME COVERS 28 CHAPTERS. THERE ARE ONLY 39 CHAPTERS DO THE ELEMENTARY LEVEL MATH F* |
 |
| What a disappointing series. Upon hearing of Gangsta, I'd hoped that perhaps the series would've been more, well, gangsta as the title suggests. And whilst I certainly wouldn't consider it a terrible series, it left much to be desired. There wasn't much of a direction from the get go; each episode instead meandered about, introducing characters and pumping up plot arcs before dropping it altogether in this finale. I enjoyed the characters - namely Nicholas, who's very unique and fun to watch - and the fight scenes were at times well choreographed and fluid. However the little to no buildup to this ending is sadly unsatisfying and ultimately weak. A shame Studio Manglobe is no more. Their anime has always been testing the waters; they've never found much of an audience in Japan, but I appreciate their willingness to try new things. And I don't entirely blame them for this anime; unfortunately it's just one of those cases where they were given a strict amount of episodes to work with, and what with their apparent financial troubles, the rush to birth this out is sadly evident. It had potential and a definite entertainment factor. If it weren't for that ending it'd be a 6/10 from me; however, upon reflecting on it, 5/10 seems most fair - a shame, since this was the anime I was most looking forward to this season. |
 |
| Damn how can they stop the anime like this :/. I hope another studio will buy the rights. Really a great episode, Worrick was badass, Joel's speech was full of feelings. About the show, I'm a little disappointed, because at the beginning I was waiting an anime without supernatural things. But nevertheless, this anime is good with serious moments and very good OSTs. |
| Maybe I am crazy but I thought it was a ok ending... Not the best that ever was but for people to call the series a disappointment is kinda crazy... Overall I give it a 7.5/10 (and not MAL 7.5 out of 10) |
| Alex is gonna catch a cold on those steps. Poor Worick. I dislike they didn't conclude it. I heard something about Manglobe falling apart. I hope we'll still get a second season. Probably, anyway, but how soon? I just might pick up the manga. |
 |
| First half was like 9/10 for me second half 6/10. Very inconsistent. Overall 7.5 |
| ? |
| I was really hesitant to give this a 7 because I wanted to rate it a 6.5. The beginning of the anime, maybe the first half was pretty enjoyable. The last half, not so much. I found myself only half paying attention to the episodes running on one screen while playing Cities: Skylines on the other. It didn't really grab my attention enough after a while so I just kinda let it play and glanced over every so often. The production quality took a hit at some point, too. I guess overall for me it was okay. Not terribly much to remember about it. I liked Nina though. She was probably my favorite character. |
 |
| It just starts getting good and then the series ends!! n If there is any single anime I can think of that needs another season its this one. |

| is this really the end??????????? |
| I hope this series will have a 2nd season. Because that ending were so weird. I hope a 2nd season will come cause after the last ep. I were totally confused about the whole sereis. LOL |
 |
| This was a pretty good series. Too bad it ended in a cliffhanger... :( |
| Words aren't the only way to tell someone how you feel.- Tifa lockhart Which is it? A memory or us? -Tifa lockhart |
| I can only give this a 6/10. If there was a confirmed 2nd season I could understand the ending and thus change my score. However we don't know if that's happening and can only judge it on its own. If you are going to do a one off series then give it an end. |
 |
| Literrally what happened and rip Manglobe. C'mon man |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| What the hell? |
| This anime had the best mix of animation and music since years. I need the OST to this as much as the second season. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Oh man, that did not feel like an ending. I almost feel like I should expect another episode. This was a pretty good adaptation. Admittedly, the art and animation suffered more often than not, and I didn't like that during some fight scenes they would keep playing jazz-ish music (I felt like that made fights feel less serious), but still. The main problem here was that they probably should have ended it somewhere else. A second season isn't guaranteed and they ended at a really bad place for a season that may not have a sequel. I give this a 7/10. It'd be cool if we got another season, but I'd like better animation if we do. VanishingKira said: This was alright,but definitely the most overhyped/overrated anime this season 6/10. Nah, I think that title belongs to Charlotte. |

| Very disappointing show. I guess I got my hopes up because when I looked at the art for the show it reminded me of Black Lagoon but sadly it wasn't nearly as good. |
 |
| Damn hard ending, pretty decent run and even though I did expect a different kind of ending it was still enjoyable to marathon this anime! The setting was pretty solid and the overall character/story development was quite good as well! So all in all a pretty good anime if you ask me! |
