One of life's darkest and most reveal questions is, "What are you willing to kill for?" For some people, it's impossible to imagine a situation in which they would take another life. For others, they might be able to list a price, but without being in the situation, there's no way to be sure if they could do it. In death games, participants find their price: it's usually a large sum of money and, of course, their own life.

In death games, participants usually find themselves in the same predicament: kill or be killed. And while some participants join the games willingly, many find themselves forced to play the game. Not all death games are made the same, of course. Creators of death games constantly find more and more interesting ways to force the participants to rack up the body count in the most gruesome manner.

Okay so my favorite niche sub-genre of manga is the ones where the cast has to kill each other or participate in some sort of sick and sadistic game. I have read most of these, but it is my favorite so I figured I should share with the world, enjoy!

All manga that fit the "Death Game" criteria. You can also look for the anime version.

With so much amazing anime and manga out there, a person can only reasonably expect to watch and read a small percentage of it. Sometimes, you have to choose whether you're going to experience a series as a manga or as an anime. In some cases, the two are equally high quality, and the choice comes down to what's more convenient for you. But there are also a lot of anime you should skip for the manga.

Often, these underwhelming anime could have been great, but they never finished fully adapting the manga's storyline, which means that relying on the anime alone will result in an unsatisfactory viewing experience. This is the case with Btooom!, Deadman Wonderland, Wandering Son, Gangsta, and more. Sometimes, the story not only didn't finish, it also left out tons of interesting information - A Centaur's Life is so much more complex than the anime gives it credit for! Then there are anime like One Piece that are genuinely enjoyable, but are so long that you might be better off reading the manga if you're a new fan who wants to understand the series without taking on what is basically a part time job.

Which of these anime would you skip in favor of the manga?

Focus on deceiving, outwitting your opponents, and psychological warfare.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Manga with tactical fights/strategic battles that are not determined by strength or numbers but how they use what they have available to them, using their knowledge/cunning to outsmart their opponent, exploiting weakness, planning beforehand or quick thinking in the heat of battle and using what's in their immediate surroundings to their advantage.

Not all included manga are at the same level when it comes to tactical fights/strategic battles and while the majority of fights are tactical and the battles strategic there are some that are not.

1 title per series

Manga about protagonists that's lives changed for the better due to a change in how they see the world, themselves and those around them, though there are some that must go through hardships before they are able to change.

The change in these protagonists aren't instant and some of the included protagonists take a long time to change or just have a more natural gradual change that is more apparent once you have gotten further into the story.

◦ Mostly Seinen but also others which are not are also listed definitely suited for an older/adult audience or are just the epitome of good writing!

◦ Almost all my personal favorites but if not one, it's definitely worth reading at least once.
