An anime television series adaptation produced by Bones and directed by Kenji Nagasaki, aired in Japan on Fuji TV's noitamina programming block from July 8 to September 16, 2011.
You can relish in the gorgeous, detailed art and the rich, complex characters. My only qualm with this anime is the English dub voice actor choices.
Watch No. 6 Season 1 [subtitled] | Prime Video.
6 -- a completely different series, which used to be on Crunchyroll but was removed.
6 is not labeled as BL, because even in softer BL, actions are laced with sexual tension and there is no such thing happening in No. 6. It is because of this habit to expect sexuality that Asano took it upon herself to do make a queer series that breaks the romantic-sexual/platonic dichotomy.
Despite its popularity, 'No. 6' is still not renewed for season 2. Fans have signed online petitions for another season of the anime. Sadly, their wishes remain ungranted.

Unlike Yuri, BL anime has a vast library from which to choose. The best BL anime on Crunchyroll is only a taste of what's available in the collection. BL anime are usually short, so it's surprising to find a good show that doesn't rely on oversexualizing the characters.

It felt incredibly sad, almost like nostalgia. As cheesy as this sounds, my heart clenches when I hear it. Background music was very subtle, but added wonderfully to the overall feel.
Yes, for me, it wasn't quite clear what exactly happened. That's probably my fault for watching anime at 6.15 am...#N#There was potential in some kick-ass action etc. In the last episodes, but it just didn't make something out of its potential.
To me, Nezumi and Shion's interactions were better than the overarching plot. Most of the characters were interesting because they possessed some original traits. Overall an enjoyable watch for anyone who likes a sad plot, the utopia theme, interesting characters, even though the plot left unanswered questions.
In a city known as No.6, an elite student named Shion saves a young boy called Rat, who happens to be an escapee from the local prison. After being reunited with Rat years later, the two begin to uncover the dirty secrets of the 'ideal city' No.6 while discovering more about themselves and their love for each other along the way. — Emily Dean
Based on a a series of novels by Atsuko Asano. It was published in 9 volumes.
Many years ago, after the end of a bloody world war, mankind took shelter in six city-states that were peaceful and perfect... at least on the surface. However, Shion—an elite resident of the city-state No. 6—gained a new perspective on the world he lives in, thanks to a chance encounter with a mysterious boy, Nezumi.
No. 6 condenses but largely remains faithful to the the original nine-part light novel series. Changes were made to tone down the amount of violence in the series, in addition to creating an alternate ending.
