I think Akagi and One Outs accomplish that pretty well. Especially One Outs. Watch Kaiji if you like either of them. Doesn't fit your criteria, but it's good stuff.

One Punch Man, too, in a sense.

Overlord and No Game No Life, maybe? The main characters in both are already practically the best, so they just fuck around with whoever messes with them. More fucking around in No Game No Life.

Thanks. I was thinking of fighting and already knew Akagi, but One Outs looks pretty interesting.

>Overlord and No Game No Life
I meant more a weak MC who gets by through wits, but I'll check those out too.

By memeing around, I assumed you meant fucking with the enemy, which is what all of the things I listed basically do. Can't just do that, anon.

If you want more strategy, then you'd love Hunter x Hunter. The MC isn't exactly trying to become the strongest, he's just trying to find his dad and figure out why he abandoned him to become a Hunter. It's good stuff. And the cast are the epitome of underdogs, since the enemy is always better than them, thus making them have to form strategies to overcome the odds. Also, it may be 148 episodes long, but they honestly fly by with how easy it is to watch multiple episodes in a row without getting bored. The intrigue only increased the more I watched it.

Some more "wits" that might not be what you want, but I'll list anyway:

Boku Dake ga Inai Machi
Code Geass
Death Note

I hesitate to say Zipang, since I haven't watched it in forever, but I think it might be close to what you want. It's about a JSDF ship getting sent back just before Pearl Harbor happened and they want to avoid fucking up history and have to plan their every move. It's pretty interesting, but ends in a shitty spot, so.
