Hey guys, I'm looking for an anime with children in difficult situations/kids doing cruel things. Basically something like The Drifting Classroom or Lord of the Flies as an anime... Maybe something similar to Now and Then, Here and There or Bokurano with main focus on what's going on with the characters and how they deal with what's happening around them.

I don't really care for the art and I'm fine with most genres.
Story could be about anything, really.
Most important thing is for it to have interesting characters.
Preferably nothing longer than 26 episodes.

These aren't about kids doing cruel things, but mirai nikki, jormungand, deadman wonderland and Btooom! All have a cruel child in them.

Dwaejiui Wang is exactly what you're looking for.

Last season's Gakkougurashi! had a difficult situation. You could say they did cruel things in a sense.

Thanks for all the recs.

I watched Dwaejiui Wang, it was really great! Thank you for that.
And for now, Shinsekai Yori and Jigoku Shoujo caught my interest so I guess I'll go ahead and watch those next.
