Juuni Taisen

While Danganronpa is about murdering and getting away with it and Juuni Taisen is about murdering for survival, they still share a lot of things in common.
You're free to kill, when and where you want to and they don't care how you kill your victim.
The only big difference is that there are no class trials in Juuni Taisen.
Both have the same situation where survival is the name of the game where anybody can be murdered.
Again, both are survival anime about a bunch of people being told they have to kill each other. In Danganronpa, they have to kill someone secretly then get away with it. In Juuni Taisen, it's just a free for all.
- 12/15 people must kill each other to get freedom
- there are pacifists, who don't wan't to kill and there are mad people having fun with the killings
- every character is unique and has his/her special personality and character traits
A group of misfits are put together in an isolated environment, so that they can deceive and kill each other. Why? Because the game can have only one survivor, and that can happen only when you kill the rest of the people you stand with you.
Both anime feature lies, betrayals, unusual alliances and the deaths of the most unexpected characters. Both also have fairly questionable plots, but if you're someone who enjoys blood, death and gore more than the intricacies of the plots of anime series, then both these series should prove to be entertaining to you.
They are both killing games except this anime is based on the video game. In Danganronpa, it is about regular school students who are imprisoned inside Hopes Peak Academy, but in order to gain back their freedom, they must murder someone and get away with it. I would recommend the game itself, but the anime counts as a weaker substitute.
Both of these shows share the theme of characters killing each other. In Danganronpa, the students were kidnapped, but the characters in Juuni Taisen are there by choice. Every character in Juuni Taisen possesses some sort of power to fight the others, simmaler to how the students in Hope's Peak have Ultimates.
