Extremely similar premises and similar storytelling. Also a lot of "whodunnits" as well as an oblivious protag and his "friends" trying to fight the unknown evils. Very battle royale structure and thriller mood as well.

Both series are rather similar in tone with how the characters are placed in a death trap, although I would say that Danganronpa is more light hearted about it than Dokumushi, but I think that helps in it's favor.

Set in an elite high school designed to nurture talented individuals and that the students are currently unable to leave, the focus of these stories is to outsmart, outmaneuver and outscheme other students to survive -figuratively in case of Classrom of the Elite, literally in case of Danganronpa.

Protagonist is trapped in a location where murders start to occur. To wiggle out the truth and find out the culprit he needs to use facts, logic and passionate argumentation.
