Death Note (2006)
L vs Light
I have to read Platinum's End, from the same author, that, having a sinopsis similar to Mirai Nikki's, probably has the trope.

Reinhard von Lohengramm vs Yang Wenli
I wonder if I should put Arslan Senki, from the same author, here, but Narsus doesn't have any real opponent to wits-battle with.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (2000)
Yami Yugi vs various oponents.
It's a version of the trope for kids.
Paulo Júnior's rating:
These are cat and mouse games. It's when two or more clever people use their minds against each other. From what I can see, it's much more common in japanese media.
I have to mention it is only battle of wits with at least two very clever individuals. If only one person is very clever, it can't be that trope.
