AKA
バトル・ロワイアル
Batoru Rowaiaru
Genre
psychological thriller, black comedy, fighting, drama
Summary
"At the dawn of the millennium, the nation collapsed. At fifteen percent unemployment, ten million were out of work. 800,000 students boycotted school.
The adults lost confidence, and fearing the youth, eventually passed the Millennium Educational Reform Act - AKA The BR Act..."
In the year 2000 the Japanese government passes the "Battle Royale" act to deal with out-of-control juvenile delinquency.
This act decrees that once a year a class of 9th graders is chosen at random, stranded on a small island, and armed with random weapons.
The kids are also outfitted with unremoveable necklaces that monitor their location and life functions, and explode if more than one student is alive at the end of 72 hours.
Let the fun begin!
not suitable for children

Yeah, it was here. I think it was on the anime movie section, but seems like it've been deleted. _________________

I'll think of a section to put this in as In my humble opinion, Drama series isn't really the right place for this  _________________ The post above is entirely my opinion. Feel free to be offended by it. |

Well yes it says drama in the genre section, but there's a difference to what is classified as a Asian drama (as in the series that are mostly 13 episodes long and are like small soap operas), and a movie a la Battle Royale which is more action than drama (imo).
Anyway, Asian movie section later today  _________________ The post above is entirely my opinion. Feel free to be offended by it. |

I thought it was hilarious (due to its terrible-ness). Not at all the same as BR but I don't think I stopped laughing all the way through. Quality entertainment; at least on first viewing. |
