Mirai Nikki

Average wimpy school boy meets friendly-but-sinister girl. Lethal games start. Mayhem ensues.
Bloody and edgy 'battle royale' type of stories with plenty of deaths and psychopaths, they share several genres and themes.
Both manga were also serialized on Shounen Ace and consist of almost the exact same number of chapters/volumes.

Both series have a young protagonist who is given/discovers he has an unusual power and is required to fight similarly powered people to survive. Both have similar art styles and rather stylishly violent action on top of its inherent moral dilemmas and pervasive air of desperation.

Both Mirai Nikki and Deadman Wonderland have the same kind of themes, but are just put in a different setting. Definitely what I consider two of the most unique series being published at the moment, especially within the violent-supernatural genre.

If you liked Mirai Nikki, you may want to check out Deadman Wonderland.
The protagonist Ganta is thrown into a bizarre and hectic situation and quickly has to figure out how to keep alive.He is also helped out along the way by a girl named Shiro, who posseses strange abilities and a mysterious past. Both of these series are chocked full of action and suspense; and plenty of crazy and entertaining characters that keep you wanting more. Deadman Wonderland is definitelya worthy read.

In both manga, the protagonist is at first at shock and sometimes a crybaby, and in both manga there is a girl who at first looks cute and innocent and helps the protagonist when he needs help.

Although in mirai nikki yuno loves yuki, while in deadman wonderland shiro wants to be friends with ganta and play, both of the girls are pretty attached to the protagonist.

Both Mirai Nikki and Deadman Wonderland are fairly odd series but what comes from them is blood, gore and a ton of fun. 

To start, both series aren't the smartest or most intelligent but what makes them so great? Well that comes from the enjoyment factor. In both manga you will find yourself cringing and the stupidity and lack or intelligence but just can't help to laugh it off and have a blast.

Onwards, both series have very similar characters.
First you have the wimpy crybaby protagonist.
Second you have the crazy, scary, yandere, stalker heroine.
and for the rest you have some of the weirdest and craziest characters ever made in manga.

For further similarity both manga have similar plot devices. Where the protagonists end up in a crazy death game with supernatural or special abilities/powers.

If your looking for something fun with a lot of blood a gore these two will suit your desire. read more

Want some of the darkest shōnen ever made? If so, then Mirai Nikki and Deadman Wonderland are just for you.

In both Mirai Nikki and Deadman Wonderland, an ordinary teenage boy (Yukiteru Amano/Ganta Igarashi) are thrown into a life or death situation. There is also a crazy girl (Yuno Gasai/Shiro) that’s in love with the main protagonist as well. The art styles are somewhat similar and the cast is full of crazy psychos. Both ran in the same magazine as well (Monthly Shōnen Ace).

The main difference is the setting, as Mirai Nikki doesn’t take place in a prison. While both are very violent, Deadman Wonderland is much more violent. 

Regardless, both are still very similar, and I love both of these manga. After you read these two manga, I’d recommend reading Elfen Lied, which is similar to both Mirai Nikki and Deadman Wonderland. read more

Similar plot: God is disappearing for some reason and powers are given to some humans, and a new god will be chosen among them. The main characters are similar and it's likely that an alliance between the main couple is formed.
Also, the god candidates in both stories seem to have lots of personal problems (it's insinuated that all god candidates in Platinum End are suicidals and most of the god candidates in mirai nikki had a sad/terrorizing/problematic past.)

Differences are: In Mirai Nikki, the power of each candidate is completely unique, while in platinum end the only difference is how many accessories the candidate has, depending on the class of his angel. Also, it seems killing all the other candidates is not the only way to become a god in Platinum End, even if he obviously needs to stay alive, while Mirai Nikki was a "must-kill-everyone-else".  read more

Well, even though only 3 chapters of Platinum End have been released while I'm writing this recommendation, they both follow the same main plot.
Few individuals are chosen to finish each other off and become Gods. The main difference is of course the resources they have in hand. Mirai Nikki has diaries and Platinum End has Arrows/Wings. 

reportRecommended by One

Both of these manga have a very similar plot. In both of them there are 12/13 chosen people to be god candidates, in Platinum End these chosen people are often suicidal and have given up on life and in Mirai Nikki the chosen people are generally psychologically damaged. These chosen candidates are given something that would change their lives, Platinum End provides the characters with angels and a choice between wings or red and white arrows, whereas Mirai Nikki rewards the candidates with a future diary, a device that will inform them of future events.
The MC's of these manga are both the "everyday person" that seem to be brought into this game outside of their free will to do so, and they also form romantic alliances with other candidates.
For anyone who likes a unique systematic plot line, these are two manga's that are definitely worth the read. read more

Both series have a kill-em-all survival game set-up. Battle Royale gets a lot more gratuitous with the sex and violence (not that Mirai Nikki lacks either of those), and Mirai Nikki has some mild fantasy elements, but if you like enforced kill-or-be-killed scenarios, both deliver in that respect -- and might give you some nightmares in the process.

Did you just see a new character on the page? Then you can expect the same fates for said characters in both series. It might not get them now, but it will catch up with them at some point.
Also the "one must survive by killing all the others" thing is present in both series, as well as equipping the characters with weapons in order to help them achieve this (future versions of diaries in Mirai Nikki, random things like scythes, guns, and forks in Battle Royale). Many of the characters in both series are also pretty damn crazy.

reportRecommended by Keiz

There is only one way to survive and that is... TO KILL EVERYONE! Both manga carry a kill or be killed scenario as the characters enter a psychological battlefield. What entitles forth is a total bloodbath of death and gore. In terms of character progression both manga also feature some similar character revaluations; as our passive protagonist begins to question their own sense of morality and begins to wonder if they could kill for the benefit of their own survival. Mirrai Nikki differs as it features supernatural elements with specialised phones as the character fight against each other for the hopes of becoming the next god. While Battle Royale features a very humane story as it focuses much more on the morality and induced trauma of the situation; as it goes to investigate each characters ideology and thought process, through its use flashbacks. As classmates/friends are forced to kill and betray each other on an isolated island. So, if you a fan of blood, death and plenty of gore on a psychological battlefield, than you will love both manga. read more

Battle Royale's influence, at least talking about the original book, is undeniably big, even if you can find similar plots from older works, it's with the book that this kill or be killed game was popularized, Mirai Nikki is one of the many works post of Battle Royale that would utilize this basically same basic plot, so most of the themes of death are present in both, Mirai Nikki adds sobrenatural elements to make it's story more of it's own, but overall both are recommended series of the same genre.

Both are written by the same authors.

The female protagonists are both insane to begin with. The male protagonists however have different powers, Eiji has complete control over everything and everyone within a certain area which expands as he covers more ground, its name: World Domination(Because when he has explored the world he will control everything). Their personalities are similar in some senses but Eiji is still a lot less cowardly and as the story progresses he will probably become more determined just as Yukiteru did. The female protagonist is completely nuts just like Yuno, although in a completely reversed fashion.

-Both female protagonists, Yuno and Rin, are yanderes skilled at combat and serve as the male protagonist's companions. Personality-wise, they're incredibly similar, though there are slight differences in their interests. You'll see. 
-The concept in both mangas is very much similar to a game, being administrated by a certain force that grants its "participants" power (Deus Ex in Mirai Nikki, Daisy in Big Order).
-Eiji > Yukiteru. The protagonist in Big Order is not a wimp. He has the power to fend off for himself and does not depend so heavily on others, unlike Yukiteru.

Both manga contains action and super power themes as power is what dominates the characters.

Koharu no Hibi addpermalink

Aside from to laugh at it, the ONE reason I finished Mirai Nikki was Yuno. Never before had I encountered a character that made me love her for her single-minded devotion cuteness but also ponder whether I'd be able to deal with the whole axe-killing aspect, if she wasn't 2D. She's half lovestruck girl, half psychotic killer, and that made me want to violate her in my mind, as well as laugh as her PATHETIC beloved cried himself to sleep over her stalking ways.

Unlike Mirai Nikki, which is first and foremost a psychological thriller, KnH is a full-on romance... or rather, a full-on tale of stalking-love that somehow develops via many tongue-tangling sessions into a romance. As you'd expect in reality, the lead was disturbed to the point of running away early on as Koharu attempted to glue their hands together and abused his flute, but his lust and her creepy-cuteness won against his fears in the end.

Koharu hasn't YET attempted to kill anyone, so she's not as lust-worthy as Yano (also: short hair = NO!)... however, she HAS sexually assaulted a love rival by forcing her down and shoving her tongue into her mouth in order to 'retrieve' the first kiss of her boyfriend, if that compares in your mind to murder. read more

Although the premise is not entirely similar, the setting, the development and the plot twists share a substantial resemblance! Mirai Nikki follows the battle royale recipe with a specific number of people trying to be the last (wo)man standing, but ib follows more the good side versus bad recipe, which in this case involves a specific number of people with certain abilities. However, who defines what good or bad is? The works redefine what you thought was right or wrong pretty often.

In both cases, the plot holds many surprises for the reader and some are just crazy and over the top, but enjoyable nonetheless. They are character-driven stories, so the more you get to know the characters, the more the story changes with them and although, the main characters are not really similar, many of the characters have crazy personalities to accompany them. The quality of the twists and wacky characters are what truly connects these 2 series, but they are more of a guilty pleasure. read more

Underdog is like some kind of holy union between Mirai Nikki (KILL EVERYONE ELSE!) and Liar Game (OUTSMART EVERYONE ELSE!). What I like A LOT about it is that face-to-face intensity gets combined with the need for thinking. Since it's against the rules in Underdog to DIRECTLY kill the other players, the aim of the game is to make the other player either kill themselves or INDIRECTLY cause someone else to kill them. It's great!

Based on the author being the creator of Shamo, there might be a fair amount of unpleasant, not-so-nice things around the corner to keep me hooked. (....LITTLE SISTER!) read more

Change 123 addpermalink

Action and love story about a weakling boy and a powerful girl with some serious mental problems. Although male character is a nice person, in both mangas all attention focus on female characters. In C123 Motoko has divided personality and in Mirai Nikki Yuno is superprotective and obsessed yandere who has no qualms about killing. Both has action and blood, the difference is that there's more ecchi and martial arts in C123 and Mirai Nikki is more violent and even creepy sometimes. But if you enjoy one, I definitely recommend the other.

Along with many others, the outcast main character gains an immense power.  The main character teams up with a classmate who has a similar power to find out as much as they can about the power and defend themselves against the many threats to their lives. Both manga are intense psychological horror and contain a lot of killing.

Eden no Ori addpermalink

Like games? Like psychological plot holes? Like horror? Like action? Like romance? Then, you might like both of these manga series. Both the main protagonists begin as ordinary people but are quickly thrown into a setting they never imagined before. There are also evidence of romance and drama as the chapters drag on. Additionally, there are quite a lot of character development not only in the main characters but some of the main supporting as well.

Shinigami-sama ni Saigo no Onegai wo addpermalink

The art-style is very similar along with the atmosphere. Facial expressions are very fleshed out and events that take place in either will most likely shock you. You can't NOT think of the other when reading either.

Baroque K/night addpermalink

Both Manga fight and win to become the new god but Barque Night goes to a game world but the action is real just like Mirai Nikki

Akuma no Riddle addpermalink

A focus on survival, Mirai Nikki and Akuma no Riddle deals with this concept as the main character is caught and thrown into a dangerous game. They realize the nature of the game that will cost their lives if they play the wrong cards. Luckily, there is hope as with an unlikely ally whom shows feelings/care for the protagonist.

Both series involves a group of characters/players in this game where each of them seeks to eliminate their target for their own reasons. Expect the unexpected.
