Lets see... Sugar-chan has seen Mai-HiME, Rozen Maiden, and Sekirei.

What Sugar-chan is looking for is an anime with a "game" that people try to "win" in order to gain something.

Fate Stay Night - Quite popular, you may have seen.
Kurohime - Much like Sekirei
Kämpfer - This, I don't know. It has trap, no problem.

Battle Royale- Manga/Novel/Film.
Liar Game- Manga.

Gantz it is.

the competition to possess 'god's' power

Fate/Stay Night seconded. They're fighting over the holy grail, which is supposed to grant the winner's wishes.

Gantz also fits into your category, but but warned: It's ultra-violent.

Also be warned,you might be wondering when the hell they're gonna frickin shoot,just a heads up
I also don't know if it's any different from the manga,I only read it from where the anime ended

FuzzyWuzzy · 2009-10-04, 21:40

Gantz is pretty good. But they aren't exactly fighting for ultimate power. They are all just trying to survive or fighting to survive. The main characters aren't trying to level up or gain superior ultra power.

Death sees that Sugar-chan talks in the third person. Death likes that.

As a somewhat comedic suggestion, there is Queen's Blade. But that is an extremely crappy anime and is very prone to boobage (I mean, comeon. Acidic breast milk as a weapon?).

Shakugan no Shana has this to an extent. The "bad guys" are fighting to obtain ultimate power, and the "good guys" are fighting to prevent them from gaining that ultimate power. I also feel heavily inclined to second Fate/Stay Night.

freak · 2009-10-05, 01:14

In Gantz they are fighting for the ultimate prize: Their own life.

Anju-chan · 2009-10-07, 22:39

Hmmm.....I think Umineko no Naku Koro ni might be good. Zatch Bell goes too. Of course, we can't leave good ol' Yu-gi-oh off the list.

synaesthetic · 2009-10-08, 16:43

Manga suggestion: Mirai Nikki.

A bunch of (mostly insane) people with diaries that can predict the future, competing to become God.

Senden · 2009-10-09, 06:33

I'd suggest Kiba.. while it's not a game in say the same sense Gantz is.. as the plot develops it's basically a story about people fighting for the ultimate power. Fairly good series too.. nothing amazing but certainly an enjoyable watch.

There is a fringe anime no one but me has probably even heard of where characters must gather what are called DRAGON BALLS in order to utilize super-ultra-power! Characters have their own reasons for wanting these special magic BALLS and what they all go through on another planet (called "Namek") is pretty dynamic and amazing. I highly recoomend it. It's called DRAGON BALL Z, however, airing currently is a new "more true to the manga" edition called DRAGON BALL KAI. It's awesome.

Sugar_Prayer · 2009-10-18, 21:20

Thank you everyone for the suggestions! I'll check Fate/Stay Night, and Gantz out, since thats what the majority of people suggested! ^^
