Umineko has detective work in a closed off island where the people that are trapped both have to solve murders and commit murders themselves.
Danganronpa has detective work in a closed off high school where the people that are trapped both have to solve murders and commit murders themselves.
Both have the same theme of murders happening in a closed area and finding the culprit.

They both have ideas of being Psychological, disturbing, mysterious. However, Umineko is more magical while danganronpa is more real.
Both are centered on murder mysteries, where the setting is arranged by a "mastermind," or the one who has the most control over the entire situation. As murders happen, due to the characters' (hidden and obvious) motivations and relationships, the survivors attempt to solve every aspect of the death based on the evidence left. Umineko is much less logical, however, as the "mastermind" is a witch that uses magic, and the protagonist's goal is to refute magic, regardless of what actually happened. If you watched Umineko and enjoy a logical (though not quite ingenious) mystery, watch Danganronpa; if you watched Danganronpa, but prefer more ludicrousness

Both take place in a setting closed off from the rest of the world. The plots are similar in that mysterious murders take place. The "trial" set up in Danganronpa is similar to the "chess match" set up in Umineko. Lastly, both deal with the idea of trust, hope, and despair, albeit more prevalent in Danganronpa
