Mirai Nikki (TV)

While Eden of the East (Higashi no Eden) and Future Diary (Mirai Nikki) appear to have significantly different plot directions and main character pairs, both revolve around a sort of tournament where twelve seemingly randomly selected contestants have been given a great source of power with which they must outsmart their opponents to win--with death as the price of failure. Because of this power, the characters are faced with ethical and moral dilemmas and even existential questions that provide thematic depth. These shows also feature plot structures that are rich and complex; the twists and turns often will catch you by surprise, but it all makes sense by the end. And the animation for each is beautifully done: a pleasure to watch.
