Well I'm looking for serious anime about money gambling , economy ( trade etc ) and for society I mean about the dark side of the society/system let's say behind the scene , people lying , immoral fact, etc ...
Doesn't need to be of actual time , could be in the past or maybe future ( like Psycho-pass )

Thanks!

kaiji has aspect of gambling, and dark side with immoral people. but the gambling feels kinda a little disappoint me(it's more psychology genre than the gambing)

i like gamble movie/anime/series too so i'll bump it haha

[C] - The Money of Soul and Possibility Control

Nakamura Kenji's response to the financial crisis. Not his best work (see Mononoke, Tsuritama, and Gatchaman Crowds for those), but relevant to your request.

Thanks for the reply , I was planning to watch Maoyuu Maou Yuusha!

I've already watched Spice and Wolf though , and for Kaiji I watched the first season but near the end the pacing got really slow and really repetitive that's why I didn't wanted to watch the second season , but it was a long time ago , might give it a try!

I've already watched [C] - The Money of Soul and Possibility Control aswell ! ( same for Tsuritama and Gatchaman Crowds , haven't watched Mononoke tho )

Nobody has any anime about dark side of society , hidden truth , those kind of thing ?

Watch the "Bake Neko" arc that ends the anthology Ayakashi Samurai Horror Tales first then. Mononoke is a continuation of that story.

It's hard to find good stories about those subjects that aren't cliched. I'd start with Monster which I was surprised not to see on your extensive list. Other shows that might qualify include Hyouge Mono and Seirei no Moribito.

Adding Mononoke to my plan to watch then!

Well I had started Monster but then I had it on hold aroung ep 30 or so , I might continue watching it but I have to watch it from the start since it's been a long time...

Never heard of Hyouge Mono , just checked it , sounds interesting !
and for Seirei no Moribito it was already on my planning list.

Thanks for your recommendation again!

Akagi is gambling anime with mahjong as the main game.

Eden of the East is pretty good economic plays anime,
as well as Arakawa Under the Bridge with kinda different element.
