Both speaks about a young boy accused of murder which it didn't make. He's send in a prison where there's many deaths. There's allies which become traitors but there's only one girl who will make all for him. Really much of similarities, but these two animes are just excellent ;)

Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch addpermalink

I find them quite similar: Shiro from DW and C.C. from CG, cause both of them are weird attached to the main characters, but in CG we know why at the beginning and in DW not. (And maybe because both of them like eating :D)

Very similar protagonists are forced into a situation that they know very little about yet happens to have ties to their past. Additionally, the plots both have the same pacing and fights work the same way with a cost applied to the loser.

Genocyber addpermalink

Both titles are set in the near future and are very dark, violent, bloody, and can be rather psychological at times. They both have strange powerful beings and deals with a young protagonist that has an unusual power to gives them to kill people with over the top gruesome attacks. If you like one, you should probably like the other.

Evil or Live addpermalink

Deadman Wonderland is also similar to this anime, and begins with the MC confined at a facility where they are pushed to their limits everyday for survival. Both the MCs start off as underdogs, but Deadman Wonderland has more intriguing plot points and twists, which makes it all the more interesting to watch.

Both of these anime have a cheery circus motif that hides darker elements underneath. Also, both have the innocent white-haired, red-eyed child character (Shiro in Deadman Wonderland and Nai in Karneval).

Bleach addpermalink

Somehow some character designs made me think of Bleach. Also the 'Branch of Sin' ability in Deadman Wonderland made me think of 'Bankai' in Bleach. They're both skills multiple characters can perform, but it depends on the character how it actually can be used in battle.

Munou na Nana addpermalink

-Both of the animes are about the main characters going into an island, isolated from man-kind and that the place is supposed to be "special" but soon find out everything they knew is a lie. In Deadman, people believe that the island is a fun carnival that everyone has to go at least once in their life. In Nana, the island is a school full of only talented children who has powers. They are all elite and that is why they are there. Soon, both of the characters find out that the place they really are in is a place where they throw anyone with special powers and are forced to kill each other to "save" mankind. People with powers are just "arrogant" and will rise up and kill everyone who doesn't have powers. 
-Both of the anime is also very dark with a huge twist read more

Yakusoku no Neverland addpermalink

Kids fighting for their lives. Deadman Wonderland and The Promised Neverland both are about kids trying to survive against some evil force that looms over them.

Deadman Wonderland is about Ganta entering prison to try clear his name. TPN the children trying to escape from Grace Field since demons wish to eat them.

Both are good anime for the shounen demographic, though Deadman Wonderland has action, with TPN having psychological mind games to play with.

Main character has insignificant memories about a mysterious female character.
The animes both include some kind of hidden laboratory involving children.  Each anime involves the characters having to participate in unwanted challenges to survive. Deadman wonderland is a lot more gore and serious, but Kiznaiver has blood too.

Koukyoushihen Eureka Seven addpermalink

Both original stories made by Kataoka Jinsei and Kondo Kazuma. And share such things as sci-finess, main character getting involved in things he don't want to and mysterious girl as his companion.
Even though they quiet different in setting: Eureka is more light and colorful story with romance-lines, while DW is more dark and tragic.
