Which anime do you enjoy with a mostly adult cast of characters? (lemm.ee)

By adult I mean over 18-20 years of age and with adult appearances. Nothing against anime with younger characters, but interested in finding some with older characters.

Current:

Ramen Akaneko - is a current show with working (adult) cats and a human running a ramen restaurant.
The Fable - is a current show that I classify as Yakuza noir, about a uh... idiot savant assassin? I love Yoko.
Kengan Ashura - Extremely violent bizarre macho underground fighters.

Recent:

Paripi Koumei/Ya Boy Kongming - An absolutely fantastic blast about making it in the music industry. All of the music is sooooo good! All major protagonists work in a bar.
Akiba Maid Sensou/Akiba Maid War - A parody of maid cafes operated like Yakuza gangs.
Brave Bang Bravern - was a pretty good farce of 90s super robot shows with all adult military guys as protagonists.
Glass Of God - was about godlike knowledge of bartending, so obviously no kids or teens there.
