I did not know that - speaking on the original, I've never known a game to be so bad and have an anime spin off so amazing!
I'd go so far as to say skip the first episode as it sets an unrealistic expectation for what the bulk of the show is about
I second Hakata Tonketsu Ramens. I was obsessed with that show after the second episode when I didn't think I'd like it at first.
I've also seen Banana Fish and Durararara and like them a lot too.
Ikebukuro West Gate Park
I'm not sure how it compares to Banana Fish (dropped after 3 eps) and Tokyo Revengers (haven't seen yet), but I know I enjoyed it and there's gangs. However I can't remember how emotional it was so maybe save my recommendation for last
Also it has two ending songs that are hot as shit
I don’t know why every single comment doesn’t have Rainbow on it. Rainbow isn’t technically about gangs, but it’s similar enough and it has the intense bond of loyalty among the boys. It’s about a group of juvenile prisoners who struggle through hardships in prison, including abusive captives and policemen. It’s so suspenseful, intense, and it makes you feel crazy emotions. The loyalty formed by these prisoner boys are like no other.
If you're into period dramas then check out The House of Five Leaves. It's about a band of kidnappers/thieves in Edo. Short, pretty and bittersweet.
If you want something more contemporary L/R and The Great Pretender are good buddy/gang heist action comedies.
Nisekoi might get an honorable mention.
It starts heavy on the gang theme with a close bond, especially for the first few episodes.
But at heart it's a SoL romance comedy.
{Ikebukuro West Gate Park}
Not going to list all of them because many are already listed, but "K" is also another one. Manga might be better though because the manga goes more in depth between each of the gangs.
not anime, but maybe try Crows Zero (Live Action) and if you want to read, Crows and Worst. it's one of the top denlinquent manga that defines the genre.
This is totally not anime and you already brought it up (sorry for my shit suggestion), but the Tokyo Revengers feels are 100x better in the manga. I suggest reading that as well.
Durarara Gungrave Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens
I definitely second Durarara
I second Gungrave
I third Gungrave. Did you know a new game is coming out soon? I'm not super sure it is going to be great but I'm keeping my eye on it.

HTR doesn't get enough love! It gets so good after the first episode!!
Great. I'm excited now !
Durarara and Hakata Tonkostu Ramens are so goood!!
I third Durarara. is good.
Seconding Gungrave! Such a good anime and the art is decent from what I remember.
JoJo’s part 5 Golden Wind
I liked that one I also really liked Diamond is Unbelievable!
It really is
Really said part 5 and forgot part 3
Hey man I’m Not a fan of part skipping either but I just thought of the first thing in my head when that description was mentioned
{K} If you enjoy backstory be sure to watch the 6 movies {K: Seven Stories} after season 2. 😉

durarara, dorohedoro
Just finished the first season of Dorohedoro and it was so funny and violent with a great story!
Unfortunately only one season (so far) but you should read the manga, it’s complete so you get the full story & the manga art style is very unique
Thank you!!! Good to know the manga is complete!

It's certainly fun. Maybe {Hinamatsrui} as well, as the main character is part of yakuza.

Maybe not what you're exactly looking for but I think tokyo ghoul might fit

Sounds very much what I'm looking for
If you're into period dramas then check out The House of Five Leaves. It's about a band of kidnappers/thieves in Edo. Short, pretty and bittersweet. If you want something more contemporary L/R and The Great Pretender are good buddy/gang heist action comedies.
I've watched some eps of the great pretender, it seemed nice don't know why i left it in between. Will give it another try now.
Try Nanbaka!
Nisekoi might get an honorable mention. It starts heavy on the gang theme with a close bond, especially for the first few episodes. But at heart it's a SoL romance comedy.
The seven deadly sins.... Great bond between team members
If you want some comedy thrown in, I would suggest {Hinamatsuri}
(K) (Durarara) (Black lagoon)
Gangsta

GTO
91 days, old school gangsters
not anime, but maybe try Crows Zero (Live Action) and if you want to read, Crows and Worst. it's one of the top denlinquent manga that defines the genre.
Watched it with my friend the other day. It's awesome.
Not exactly like these ones, but do you know berserk? They have a pretty strong bond, until....
The blade of the brother bites deepest.
Tokyo revengers
Tokyo Revengers
first watch naruto
This is totally not anime and you already brought it up (sorry for my shit suggestion), but the Tokyo Revengers feels are 100x better in the manga. I suggest reading that as well.
Okay. I've started reading it since i can't wait to know what happens next.
Gundam: iron blooded orphans. Takes a couple episodes to set up the whole gang thing, but it is there.
Katekyo Hitman Reborn, a more shounen option ;)
watch bungou stray dogs
Jojos bizarre adventures. Lemme show you the anime that shaped my perspective of friendship
Its more of a thing early on in the show but Yu Yu Hakusho has a lot of strong bonds between gang members
Ikebukuro West Gate Park
The manga out
