Anime Battle Royale?

[color=crimson][font=times new roman]Wow this manga really caught me by suprise...I havent read the novel but im assuming its about as graphic as the manga...

I saw this one at work(barnes & noble) It immedatly caught my eye cause it was shrink wrapped and had a sizable sticker warning of adult content unsuitable for minors.

So I went in search of info on the title tonight and ive caught a few pages of this...All I can say is wow...They wherent exaggerating when they gave it a M rating...Graphic violence...and abit of sex/nudity. But this title isnt just for shock value...It also is pretty deep and has alot to say about human nature...

Im def gonna read this one cover to cover tommorrow and look forward to the next issue :devil:

And id like to say kudos to Tokyopop...Its nice to see they have some guts...First they put out some shounen-ai titles and now such a mature manga...And even better they get mainstream bookstores to carry them.

Thankfully Viz and CPM have seen the light and are starting to follow tokyopops example of perserving the right to left format and not pricing thier volumes absurdly high...Now if only dark horse would get with it... :p [/color][/font]

Didn't they also make a live-action Battle Royale?

I havent seen it (yet) but I was told about it, I didnt realise there was manga as well.

Yep, Battle Royale became a movie(I think two) in Japan... Its very graphic... but I love it :)

[color=crimson][font=times new roman]yeah it was made into a movie though I havent had the pleasure of watching it yet...

Though from what ive heard the manga is much more graphic then the movie...Well I cant wait for the new ones to come out...Sighz just have to play the waiting game now... :p [/color][/font]
