No English? :(

This manga is extremely edgy and yet i can't stop reading it

you can get the first volume from amazon for only 10 bucks. Definitely worth it

Gracias por el manga el final fue genial!

how can i read it? I don't see the chapters...

Battle Royale II the prequel? Which should I read first? confusing.....
the manga has all the same students as the book. the only different character is the main "teacher" who monitors the game. though he is similar in all three variations of the story, he has a different name in the each of the different versions; book, manga and movie. The storyline of the manga is similar to the book; they made a few changes to the movie's plotline but in all i think they're all worth checking out! (the book is my favorite, personally.)
On yahoo they called this the "Japanese Hunger Games." Ignorant bastards.

I have a question for those that has read both the manga and the actual Book/Novel. (I dont know the proper term)
Does the manga follow the same characters and storyline as in the Book?
Actually both the manga and the movie were based on a book, written by KoushunTakami. It's a pretty good read, I'd recommend it.
There is a movie on this by the same name. I'm not sure which came first though, the movie, or the manga.
This manga was awesome. Dont forsake it just because the art might seem a bit odd, after twenty chapters or so you wont even be paying attention to it. A little note: It gets pretty gory... So if that kind of stuff upsets you dont read it. Also, theres a sequel.. Or something.. But id totally disregard that, its made bhy a different artist or author.. Cant remember which XD.

Anyway, story is amazing, and sad too..
This was such an excellent storyline!! It's what got me into the psychological thrillers!
