Chihayafuru

Chihayafuru and Akagi both focus on a game though in the case of Akagi it's Mahjong and with Chihayafuru it's Kurata.
Also like Chihayafuru Akagi dramatises aspects of the game to make it more interesting: in Chihayafuru the swipe of the card and in Akagi the slamming of the tile. Surprisingly it's one of the aspects that make both enjoyable to watch during the games.
As a warning though Akagi focuses on the game much more than Chihayafuru with only small amounts of plot between long games and tends to be more serious.
