This is for Battle Royale manga disscussion only! (I might make a thread for movie and novel disscussion later if it tickles my fancy.....) If you have seen the BR movie or read the novel, but didn't know that there was a manga adaption or just haven't gotten yer grubby lil' hands on it yet, here's a link to the complete series:

http://www.findmanga.com/readmanga/Battle_Royale (Quick note: On this website, sometimes the ads block the bigger pages. No worries. All you have to do is right click the page image and open it in another window. NBD. heart )

Please also support the official release.

Also vote in the poll. Some of my favorite characters are Mitsu (Mitsuko), Zuzu (Kazuo), Shogo, Yutaka, Mim (Shinji), Hirono, and Yuichiro. But my ALL TIME FAVORITE is... um, I think you can actually tell. 0_o

I actually read the manga first a long time ago, then a about a year back when I was moving in with a friend he had the live action movie so now I've seen that. I've heard that there's supposed to be an OVA on it but it's supposedly rare. It's been so long since i read it, but my favorite was Shogo, his motivations were like solid gold to me and not to mention he was a total bad @$$!!

*while head is rolling down the hill* TELL ME MORE OF THIS OVA. I MUST KNOW.

@ Krad-sama: Y'know, I posted that link to the entire series for a reason. sweatdrop Red River is awesome. 3nodding Yuri's not a total tool like some manga heroines. ninja

I don't know much about it myself just a couple of hard core fans I talked to mentioned it. I think a friend of mine had said he'd seen it or something. I suppose I'm gonna have to find out for you just to be sure aren't I?

Blitz!?!!?! Oh... I think there was some of that on Mangafox... do I have to read that next?
Almost done the series now, two or three volumes left.... needless to say, it was enthralling and I got all caught up in it and whatnot... ^-^ I'll read all but the last volume tonight... still waiting for it. xD
And I don't like reading online all that much unless I must... books are better.

Yes! I'm with Kabapu on this one (WTF?) Ishtar FTW!

I LOOOOOOOOOVE this series.

I have more than one favorites, but I think I like Mitsuko above all.
She was psycho, but she was smart using sex as a weapon.
I don't remember how she died in the movie, but I didn't like how she died in the manga. I wanted her to go down guns blazing.

Kiriyama was crazy and blood thirsty in the movie, but I thought he was really cool in the manga. Did anyone notice that he wore his jacket like a cape

example of capeness:
User Image

and that no matter what happened it never came off his shoulders.

...while punching
User Image

...while dodging
User Image

...while charging
User Image

...even while jumping and landing
User Image

it always stays on....oh wait a minute maybe this time it'll fly off...
User Image

There's no way it can stay on his shoulders right?
User Image

(OwO) holy crap it actually stayed on his shoulders and he looks badass doing it too.
User Image

Anyway I just thought he was really badass the whole time, especially his "cape"
Oh crap he's looking this way
User Image

Mimura was really cool to actually build a bomb. I was sad when he died,
but the way he died was awesome in the manga. His guts was hanging out but he still was able to fight on. Then at the end...wait for it....wait for it......
