I've seen most of the popular ones, I've seen death note/Code Geass etc. Not trying to sound inconsiderate but please check my list as nothing is worse than seeing a reply then having my hopes crushed and destroyed.

The MC isn't an anti hero, but watch Shinsekai Yori anyway.

Also bit the bullet and watch Shingeki no Kyojin as it releases.

The best part of the show is the cliffhangers, they make the wait so awesome. Also, it's directed by the guy who Directed Death Note.

I won't really call Kaiji and anti-hero - he never did anything bad towards others (stealing car badge doesn't count) and always on position "those people are in same shit as I am, I need to help them somehow". From same author Akagi does fit though - the guy pretty cruel and has the idea of destroying his oponents not only in game but in life aswell.

To OP:
You can take a look at Anti-hero club - there are some nice characters in club relations
And honorable villains club
Search may be usefull aswell: by keyword "anti hero'
by keyword "villain"

would like to add a few which people usually forget/don't mention much:

These recs have morally ambigious characters at best, they're not anti-heroes

Hmm, wasn't "anti-hero" a character who either exaggeratedly has no heroic virtues or qualities - or character with negative personality traits and some heroic qualities (not much) who is still able to attract viewers sympathy?

Which of the examples I gave don't fit? All of those characters have pretty low morale and do whatever they feel like doing to have fun/achiev their goal. Neither of them are interested in saving the world/bringing peace etc (besides Lina probably, but she is mostly forced to do so).

Personally I'd say with a gambling addicted bum for an MC, plus the values he holds and the fact OP mentioned DeathNote make Kaiji a decent example of the "anti-hero" mentality, it's all opinion though why come and argue it here? Just give the guy some recommendations and let him make a choice.

I'm surprised Akumetsu hasn't been suggested. Also try Zetman.
I like my book readings!
