Even tho Doubt is a bit more horror-ish, both manga are about a game which includes death. Kinda different, yet similar.
They both go to wacko schools which have some sort of social weirdness going on. The main characters are strong and try to abolish the injustice.
One of the twins tried to kill herself/himself and another's searching for the motive in his/her twin school.
Both main characters are female and when they go to a new school they find out schocking things about their school-mates.
The main character goes to a school full of stranges events and mystery. The main character also went to the strange school to find out what happen to their friend/sister.
Both main characters are girls and both find something shocking about their new school-mates and how they treat others.
In Both there are twins which go to different schools
Both have the "king" plot, where students must play the game-- fulfilling different tasks in order to please the king of the school and gain their "wish", or in Torikago Syndrome's case, freedom. Both have a mystery plot and fairly creepy side characters.
Both have very pretty covers with flowers and also have very pretty girls
-Both deal with the "King's Game" concept.
-Both stories deal with a classroom that get a weird text saying they are in a game.
-Both have all the students turning against each other in order to not get punished by the "King".
-Both have that eerie feel to the stories as you keep reading

Only difference is that Ousama Game is shonen and people die if they don't do the command that the "King" tells them to do while in Arisa, if people don't obey the "King's" command, they are just injured badly (so it's more softer than Ousama Game) and plus it's a shojo with a mystery to it. But both are very great stories.
The art's are somewhat similar, and also their plot is similar in a way. Arisa's mangaka is the creator of Kitchen Princess. Both manga's talk about a group or thing conspiring against them, that result in troublesome situations, but still has some good romance scenes. Although Arisa has less since it just began, and involves trying to help her twin sister. While the heroine in Max Lovely, finds herself targeted for being extremely popular, by a mysterious cult called group *F*.
the main characters is very similar
Similar story in the beginning. In both cases there're twin sisters who were parted for some years swap places, one of them dies and the other decides to live instead the died one. The difference is that in "Arisa" the purpose is to investigate the circumstances of death, while in "Inochi" heroine sacrifise herself to protect her mother.
Haven't read the whole "Inochi" thing, but "Arisa" all the way kept the intrigue , the plot is reeealy twisted.

Both are shoujo manga which have psychotic characters and group mentality that leads to some really bad occurrences.
Both are about twins who were apparently good friends, but later an event occurs making them grow apart from each other, while both fight desperately for life and the protagonist tries to find out the mystery related to her sister. Both have a touch of supernatural.
Both have situations that occur during school period! The story it's different from Arisa but has plenty of mystery itself!
