COMMENTS FOR THE FUTURE DIARY
Same type anime with 'Survival Game' on phone.Mirai Nikki has Thrill & Darwin's game have some mystery.Darwin's game is about trapped in a Mobile App and to survive, player have to kill other player.Same goes to mirai nikki,player has a 'Future Diary' to read their opponent players future.One player has to destroy other players diaries to defeat them.In Darwin's Game,Each player has a ability named 'Sigil' to fight other player with super powers.Also in Mirai Nikki,Each player has different diaries with different super power.
Darwin's Game starts with very strong Mirai Nikki vibes, mostly from the relatively average and inexperienced dark-haired male MC with a crazy killer female MC who loves him and protects him from the twisted game they're participating in.
Darwin's Game is different enough, largely in that it's a game open to an infinite number of people, while Mirai Nikki was only between 12 people, but the characters in both series still have to be wary of everyone around them in public in case they're being targeted.
Another key difference is Darwin's Game's Sigils, which are super powers unique to each individual player. While Mirai Nikki also has the characters with unique abilities, they are all tied to telling the future in some way, and Darwin's Game has no such restriction.

2. The same story plot where guy got himself in a situation where life or dead is the name of the game.
3. The same level of antagonist that the 2 MC have to deal.
Dissimilarities:
1. Setting in one anime was more like a cyberpunk theme while the other one is more like monster battle kind of theme.
2. One anime has the MC have a team while the other one only involves the 2 of them against other enemies.
3. The Sadodere girl in one anime can really kick and blow an enemy's ass, while the Sadodere girl in the other anime has to depend a lot on his Shundere partner to kick some ass.

1) The main characters are both trapped in a survival game.
2) In Darwin's Game the plot is progressing in Tokyo while in Btooom's case, the protagonist is transported to an unknown island along with the other players.
3) In both anime the female protagonist is in love with the main character and tries to assist him
4) Sudou Kaname is quite similar to Sakamoto Ryouta (Btooom's protagonist) with quick thinking and puzzle solving skills.

The protagonists are forced into scenarios where they are given certain abilities are made to fight against other users of the game.

COMMENTS FOR TOKYO GHOUL
I feel like the main character's development is a bit similar in both anime. In Tokyo Ghoul, Kaneki started off as this normal, boring guy who was tortured and forced into awful circumstances. This is the same in Darwin's Game, since Kaname was forced into the game through the death of his friend.
Both anime also give off that dark vibe that just makes my stomach turn (but in a good way). They also have that psychological element and isn't just a plotless action anime.

COMMENTS FOR JUNI TAISEN: ZODIAC WAR
Both anime feature a battle royal game, with characters having special abilities. Also both focus much on internal monologue for fleshing out the characters motivations and strategies.
In contrast to Darwins Game, Juuni Taisen shows varying characters per episode, while Darwin stays at the main character.

COMMENTS FOR FATE/STAY NIGHT
The Fate series are considered a battle royale masterpiece, with the main protagonist accidentally dragged into the race, after which a grand story of struggle for life and love follows, mixed with mystery, suspense and action. Darwin's Game tells a similar tale, albeit perhaps in a slightly less "epic" setting.

COMMENTS FOR DATE A LIVE
At first glance these anime may or may not be appealing to most people. But from experience im saying these anime are pretty good. Both anime had a mix of Romance, Comedy, and Action which is like the perfect group of genres for anime. If you are looking for a short anime go with Darwin's Game. It has only 12 episodes. If you want some more longer episodes then go with Date a Live. It has 3 seasons with 12 episodes each.

COMMENTS FOR TOWER OF GOD
If you enjoyed Darwin's game, you'll enjoy Tower of God; both anime's follow a main plot of having to 'break out of the boundaries', portrayed differently, however, both ultimately follow the same goal. In Darwin's game, the goal is to break out of Darwin's game, to enter the 4th wall essentially and win-over the system. In Tower of God; the goal is to become God itself, to climb to the top to then leave the tower and become an overruling power, thus obtaining anything you so desire.
Both anime's are great, they both are animated well, with good openings and endings. Both 9-10/10

Apart from the gods part in Law of Ueki they are pretty similar, a bunch of people getting powers fighting eachother
Where as in Law of Ueki they get powers from Gods and in Darwins Game they get powers from an application in your phone, each power differ and have its up and downs.
The Goal in Darwins game isnt really revealed as of this point, whilst the goal tends to be clearer in Ueki no Housoku

COMMENTS FOR AKAME GA KILL!
Survive to change this world! Akame ga Kill and Darwin's Game both follow protagonists in a situation where their lives, and that of others, are at stake. These MCs use all of their powers to change the current system of their respective worlds, in hopes to demolish in what is a horrid world.
MCs Tatsumi and Kaname both start out as everyday members of society, though as they understand their predicaments, they begin to see that there is no peace in their world. With a mindset complete on their goals, both group with others to set out on their ultimate mission.
Both are good action anime with a fair bit of blood and gore, though AGK is more gore than Darwin's Game.

COMMENTS FOR [C] CONTROL - THE MONEY AND SOUL OF POSSIBILITY
The premise of both shows is nearly identical.
A random average kid is forced to play a death game. That game turns out to have real world repurcussions.
No real point to either show, no overarching character goals or anything - just cool fight scenes

COMMENTS FOR SWORD ART ONLINE
Both have that same plot where gamers got on line and both have the same situation where they got more than what they've bargain for where they either play the game throughout the end or die both in the game world and at the real world.

COMMENTS FOR KILLING BITES
Both popcorn anime centered around a "battle royale" fight to the death game.
Both have similar levels of animation quality, pacing, character focus, action scenes. The stories are both structured in very similar ways. If you liked Killing bites you'd probably enjoy Darwins game too. There are small differences, namely the way they handle the fight scenes but overall they're about as enjoyable as each other.
COMMENTS FOR AIR GEAR
Darwin's Game is about a guy getting dragged into a death game; Air Gear is about a guy getting into the sports of Air-Trek. Both series have a lot of similarities: Creating their own clan, battling to gain/defend turfs, Sui/Sota & Agito/Akito, even their clan names have similar theme of black bird.
