This is a blind shot in the dark just from the premise of "high schoolers in an ultra-violent anime fighting in a sports arena," but Deadman Wonderland?

Nailed it Bernd. Thanks Dude.
BTW, @livewithstyle, I should have mentioned it wasn't Deadman Wonderland. My bad.
Looking for an Anime. It looked ultra-violent, and the animation was very fluid. Possible Mad House, or Production I.G. There was a guy running in what looked like a sports arena. He was getting attacked, limbs torn off, and regrowing them rapidly. I believe he was fighting a girl. Both were most likely high school students.
I thought it was Tokyo Ghoul, but after two and a half seasons, I know it was not.
