Sólo una persona de la clase elegida para participar puede sobrevivir después de tres días en una isla repleta de peligros. Si hay más de uno vivo al cumplirse el plazo, mueren todos, así que la única forma de salvarse es asesinar a todos sus compañero/as. El horror, la locura y la traición se convertirán en moneda corriente, mientras la lenta cuenta atrás va llegando a su fin. Pero a pesar de todo esto, dos compañeros, Shuya y Noriko, se confiesan su amor y se prometen sobrevivir a este calvario juntos.

Koushun Takami (高見 広春 Takami Kōshun) is the author of the novel Battle Royale, originally published in Japanese, and later translated into English by Yuji Oniki and published by Viz Media and, later, in an expanded edition by Haika Soru, a division of Viz Media.

Takami was born in Amagasaki, Hyōgo Prefecture near Osaka and grew up in the Kagawa Prefecture of Shikoku. After graduating from Osaka University with a degree in literature, he dropped out of Nihon University's liberal arts correspondence course program. From 1991 to 1996, he worked for the news company Shikoku Shimbun, reporting on various fields including politics, police reports, and economics.

The novel Battle Royale was completed after Takami left the news company. It was rejected in the final round of the literary competition for which it was intended, owing to its controversial content. It went on to become a bestseller when finally released in 1999 and, a year later, was made into a manga and a feature film.

He is currently working on a second novel.

Estoy para el gore, la violación capaz no.

El tema del fan service es molesto siempre, pero acá directamente es hentai y la verdad que se siente gratuito. Ya pasa en uno de los primeros volúmenes y acá es toda la primera parte. Entonces me cansa un poco, pero después te tira toda una secuencia como la de las amigas, con unos planos dementes donde todo se va recontra a la mierda. Y para eso re estoy. Tonces, ya sabés.
