Description Taken from tokyopop.com
"In the future, random Jr. High School classes are chosen to compete in a game called Battle Royale. The rules: only one student can survive after 3 days on an island or else they all perish. Weapons are handed out and each student is sent out into the field alone and unprepared for the horror that awaits them. The classmates turn upon themselves in a battle for survival, treaties are made and broken, and former friends become foes as the relentless countdown continues. Amid the betrayals and rising body count, two classmates confess their love for each other and swear to survive this deadly game together.
Based on the live-action feature film that became a cause celebre and polarized much of Japan."
Volumes 1-14 has been released and vol 15 the Final is coming in April 11th.
I've been sticking with it ever since vol 1 and the amount of character development added to the student roster is much better then the movie(I haven't read the novel yet)Violence is incredibly detailed and you feel for the next student thats about to die a horrible death from getting inside their head and past to know how they really are.So has anyone else been keeping up with this manga?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
