I feel like Death Note is the most similar !anime to Breaking Bad I've watched. A dude finds a gateway into sneaky crime under a new identity and becomes addicted to the power and thrill of it while trying to hide his illicit activity from his family, carefully manipulating someone else to serve as their partner, keeping close to the cops but gets caught and dies at the end anyways.

No cap Death Note wasn't good. I liked the fricking rules and the fricking subversion, but a fricking lot of it is fricking poorly written and downright r-slurred.
Like legit how do you come up with that, b-word? Like, in a fricking world where nobody knows of the fricking supernatural and shit, HOW THE fricking FRICK DOES SOMEONE COME UP WITH THAT, b-word? He's not even some occultist or spiritist, just some r-slurred neurodivergent kid who doesn't know how to use chairs.
Their exchanges are fricking r-slurred too. Like if I talked with Light for one conversation I would have also concluded that he has a fricking book that he's been killing the fricking people with, even if we were fricking talking about weather, but that's besides the fricking point. The fricking author is so fricking far up its own butt and the fricking book takes itself so seriously and its all so r-slurred lmao.
Breaking Bad is not the fricking best thing ever and there's anime that's pretty good. Cowboy Bebop is fricking more down to earth and not r-slurred. Not far up its own butt too.

Bebop hit that sweet spot where it had a story that didn't overpower the characters
The time has come for the Necromaster. The unleashing of the fourth joker's card. The arrival of The Great Milenko

Also had realistic characters/motivation and the fricking characters weren't just:
Neurodivergent protagonist that every girl thirsts for
Fan service girl with squeaky voice/low iq
Etc

It's a show for 16 year old edgy kids, it doesn't need anything beyond the rule of cool and to be a 150IQ rick and morty power fantasy.

The breaking bad anime of course:
Also, while a different genre, Legend of the Galatic Heroes easily wins (the OG version from the 80s and 90s). BB isnt even as solid as people think, it was beaten by its spin off Better Call Saul.

Literally none of them. Mob Psycho 100 is the only ones that comes close, and it's still awful.
Although Breaking Bad is pretty mediocre in the canon of American television. The Wire and The Sopranos are far better, and the X Files and All in the Family blow both of those out of the water.
