I could go for more post-War set stories, but I understand they can be too… bleak, as was the fashion of the time.

Where To Start The Legendary Gambler Tetsuya Manga After The Anime?
If you finished the Legendary Gambler Tetsuya anime and want to continue the story in the manga, you can start at Volume 6, Chapter 45.
It should be noted that the anime starts at Chapter 7. The first six chapters show what life was like for Asada a bit before the mahjong. They are not necessary to read, but interesting.
What to Expect From The Legendary Gambler Tetsuya Manga?
While you don’t strictly need to read Legendary Gambler Tetsuya manga from the beginning outside of reading the first few skipped chapters, there is merit to doing so. Outside of the anime just skipping the first volume, the Legendary Gambler Tetsuya anime also does trim off some of the side character moments and their character arcs from the manga.
They’re not strictly crucial to understanding the plot, so you don’t need to go read the manga from the beginning for them specifically, but you may run into moments later in the manga that may be confusing due to those arcs being cut out. It’s really up to your personal choice if you want to read the manga from the beginning or not.
Is The Legendary Gambler Tetsuya Manga Over?
The Legendary Gambler Tetsuya manga is complete. It ended in 2004 with Volume 41, Chapter 339.
Will There Be A Legendary Gambler Tetsuya Season 2?
As the anime aired in 2000, it is safe to say a Legendary Gambler Tetsuya Season 2 anime is not in the cards. Or tiles, in this case, because Mahjong. Anyway, probably not happening.
