I’ve put together a list of works based on the death game!
There are 20 different types of death game manga, from tense battles to erotic and grotesque ones.
Each title has an “eroticism” and “grotesqueness” that indicates the eroticism and grotesqueness of the work.

Battle within 5 seconds of meeting

出典 : Amazon.co.jp

It is a battle manga that is serialized in Manga One.
It has been released to 12 volumes and has a circulation of 1.5 million copies.

It is a story about a protagonist who is killed by a mysterious woman and is forced to participate in a death game of xenophobic battle.
The protagonist has absolute confidence in the game and welcomes his participation in the death game.

This work was originally a web manga published on the internet by Saizo Harawata-sensei, and the manga was remade by Miyako Kashiwa-sensei in the form of a serialization.
At the point of 24 episodes, all of the original web manga storyline was digested, and after that, it seems that Miyako Kashiwa-sensei is also in charge of the storyline, and Saizo Harawata-sensei has been changed to the credit of the original idea.
There are endless rumors on the internet like “the original author has disappeared”, but it seems that the original work has simply not been touched from the beginning, and when the original work was fully digested, it was automatically switched to the original work.
