 Note: I spell royale

Battle Royale

This is Ore Samma No review on Battle Royale from the distant future year of 2000 (the year after the global civil war emded when the SDF-1 hit earth in macross island)

Its directwed by  Kinji Fukasaku who did Samurai Reincarnation

Its based on a novel by Koshun Takami I never read but heard of

The wroter got the idea from a dream where the teacher said: All right class, listen up. Now today, I’m going to have you kill each other

It stars a bunxha japanese guys and chicks I never heard of

wait, its got Takeshi Kitano

Aftera warning that its 15+ we get logos and Toe did this

at the new millenuon  society fell, jobs went out and kids went mad max so the gov cracked down on em

then we gets the news swarming at this girl who won and looks a bit psycho

the we get this gys life story of in 7th grade hung himself and left a note sayong "u can do it" 

then takeshi is in class and the board sez; taking the day off cuz we wanna"and as he goes out after a girl came in late, a guy shanks him but the girl takes the knife

the teacher ditched the schoolcuz if he defends himself from those c=cxk suckers, HE's be the bad guy

With things devolving and teens and kids getting more dsturbed and malcontent, People like Go Nagai had 60s manga of schools where the kids were too devolved to function and when the went mental and killed people, the teachers iced em

Kinda fits the 21st century with teens shooting and knifing and b0ning each other

Could be something in the flu shots

so soon they were almoist done high school and they take a photo of em on the bus

later they are all blacked out and were gassed and the 1 who got up is beat out by a mask gas chick

hay, Ko Shibasaki from the TMS Hokuto No Ken things is in this

he wakes up andthey got collars on the necks and are in a dar school

the army comes in and kitano comes inhe tells em of the B R Act slaps the kids around a bit for mouthng off

cuz the youth are f'd up they have the battle royale wjere the stuents are to kill eachother til 1 is left, as there can be, only 1

theyr past teacher is beat dead ad he shows em the body as hes a loser and shoes e a vhs that sez each year 1 class is used for battle royal where they are on a 10 k island and 1 girl whispered so takeshi throws a knife in her skull which freaks out te little c-c suckers and they get beat down

the video resumes where it sez the colars cant be removed like cyber city oedo 808 and monitors their heart and if they take it off it blows and their head files a divorce against her body

i teen goes nuts and his colar is triggered and he runs to the other kids but is pushed back and it blows out his throat

his homie gets the photo he had and the tape sez if teres more than 1 left at the end of 3 days, they all bite it

1 kid asks if he can go home and is told yes and they were chose by random

they each get random items and surval kids and get to leave 1 at a time, but their rents were told of this and i gota say, the gov icing it people and making em do evil is a lot like yatsura maruta in ch=na

also is 2 transfer students and out in thejungle like contra they fght and run and 1 chick gets arrowed by the fat guy who gets arrowed by the guy who took his bow

a guy and a chick, i dont care about their names help each other and have binocculars

also this seems to have been ripped off by the hungar games

we getta flashback of these girls bullying another and weiting stuff on the toilet wall and they think they might not like eac other but he sez his flashback of him and the necked guy from b4 talking of crushes and how he was his room mate in the foster home after dad went to h-ll

we get a soft moment of him wishing he could have saved the necked guy and wanting reenge and to protect her

the other teens catch the transfer guy and think he works for kitano and he shreads em with a machine gun

the main cuple is at a cliff and she dont wanna play the game and throws her cr-p over and wait its not the main ones its a sisser one and they jump to h-ll to avid being in the game

2 girls meet in a shed or w/e and 1 has a stub gun and the stun gun one uses a sickle to slice the softer ones neck as 2 other teens hung themselves in the next room

the next day at 6 am kitano sez the names of the iced in order and sez the danger zones to avoid and the times they are active

main heroestry to ecape a damger zone but this axe eielding maniacattacks but in the struggle gets his own axe in his skull and bites it

man guy freaks out over icing a guy and chick sez its an accident but a gun oting nerd comes after em saying masth b4 another gun teen caps him and takes da axe

b4 he wases em, this chick voice sez to stop fighting and work it out together

mai guy wants to go butgun hero stops him and  they clash b4 he calls ut to the chicks who say she always had a crush on, then get shredded by blobee exchange guys gunfire

main guy wiggs out over teens killing each other s hes not from soviet california and gun hero sezto man uo

at noon the kitano sez theres a lunch break and not to ice and the futuredanger zones

1 chick takes the stub gun sickle chicks weapon at gunpoint over icing another chick and stun gun chick gets whiny but stn gun uses the stun gun on the hand gungets the gun to ice her when she runs

man chick has a fever for some reason andsez 1 of the iced chicks had a crish on main guy and blax out so mai guy carts her to a clinic where gunstar hero gives her expired drugs to save her

he helps em cux his dads a dr and some teens get a machine working and a vomputer and types somethingon a laptop in japanee

the this chick in a yellow suit runs as a guy fi=olows on a bike and they have a moment of anime tyleromance and then we see yellow chickwith the collar and at a house

a guy talks to her about how others gosspied of her and she sez he lied and he sez he loves her an she dont want him an he sez shes a virgin and he wants to b0ne once b4 they bite it9

she dont consent and he pulls a crossbow and she sez she'd take him srs and ice him but when he sez he'd raepe her they fight and his crossbow goes off an cuts her face

things devolve and she pull a knife and they fight and she shanks his parts and gut andstun gun chick nw has a real gun and comes after her but i think yellow runner gets away

wait sjes down and wounded andchats with a guy she likes and sez he waoyed for her but she didnt show and she never knew

they have a moment and she bites it and her name was chigusa like the Kekk Kamen chick

kateshi sez only 3 bit it so hes adding new danger zones and exchamge student i think sez he dd this game b4 and survived adhad tp ice his homies including1 seme where his womn capped herself to save him and smles and thanked him

also he was drgged and brought over to shake thinfs up and now he wants to understand her smile

main chick sez the chick loved him and he sez he knows a way off the island ad gives em weapons for defencethen the other excahenge stent comes in and he sitned up willingly to go n and ice teens cuz teels s=ck and shreds more tens with a gun

1 guy used a bulletproof vest but blonde stident uses a blade on him

he sees main guys in the building and throws the head of vest guy with a grenade in its mouthand after it blowsstick his gn in and sprays bullets

main guy runs out and blonde asian chases but neither waste the other a they kee[ missing

main guy falls and as blonce reloads fires on hm but hes got a vest that takes 0 damage from bullets as this is a f--kin video game and force and impact dont count

man guy jumps in the sea and escapes as blonde fires but water stops bulles after a few feet

so the grup of teens by the laptop  has gunstar heroes books from his uncle who was an activist in the 60s and tried to guye fawkes pariament but is on the run now andgunstar hero wants to ecape with em

was he with maruta suki Inejiro Asanuma? aitsu wa jigoku no kuso

so main gy was patched up byt this chicka nd is saved and this chick touched a man for the 1st time with him bandaging him

she fills him in on who bit it and theres other girls there and i think main chick has this vial of something an these teen japnese chicks talk and worry about how tomorrow they get it and they make spaghetti and by that i dont mean making loev or b0ning

they talk of how gunstar hero knows a way off the island and1 who ate the sphatgeti barfs blood and bits it

glasses gets a gun on em and wants to know who poisoned the spahgeti an they spazz out like chicks often do untul 1 goes for a gun and gets shredded and they all shoot at each other

glasses goes mental and shoots the chicks while getting shot and akd main chik if shes one fo the kilers untilone o the shot chicks ends her and sez "we might have all survived" ndthey all bite it from teen idiocy and main chick sez "this isn;t only my fault" over and over

she goes to see main guy and sezshe forgot how much she liked em and sory and he sees the carnage but not cosmic cargane on sega 332x

then he goes to the roof after her and sees she iced herself and i dont thnk its main chick as she was in the other base and I f'd up

so then we see main chick with kitano by a river walking and its a memory or w/e and kitano is woke up andgets da phone from his daughter who he sez is on a business trip and she's kinda b--chy

main chic sez she dreams of kitano and her walking and they wer elonely i mean he was and how she wanted to hae a normal life

main guy has a memory about his last day with his dad b4 he went to h-ll and he was kinda unbalanced

alsoremembering his homie who got necked sayign to protect the girl an he wakes up and walks on in the rain and through the contra jungle woods

main chick runs out to meet him somehow sensing his i or w.e and they are near a danger zone andruns into some chick and i think its stun gun who pulls her firearm and is gonna ice her but kitano comes in and scares her off as main guy limps over with a stick

takeshi gives her his umbrella nd he has weapons and  he's bruend out but will protect her

later 1 guy gets shot up and i thin its the bf of the yellow chick and when this chick goes to him the stun gun chick caps her

1 chick has a flashback of this creeper trying to b0ne her and she shovd him down the stairs and i think thats syun gun chick

then stun gun chick fights blonde guy who has amor and shoots her a few times

the teens work on things and make weapons and charges to blow and1 hacks into the island cmputer anduses a virus as hes asian and good at tech like making gundams or veritechs

takeshi turns off the powrr and they restart it and holy f the music was done by  Masamichi Amano who did Urotsukidji an Ninja Resurrection

so the teens are gonna guye fawkes the school and end the game but blondo comes at emand none of tem think to aim at his head and he wastes a few of em

1 sacrifices himself liek buzz or gill harn in hokuto no ken 2 and blos th charges to rty to end the blonde but he survibes and i dont think hes got any dialogue ad is like a =n animal or roaming oni

the area is a sea of slames and looks cooland its a fight between gunstar hero and blonde who gets his head blowed off

they make it to the sea andmain guy sez he never trusted adults cuz they ditched him and now hes gonna fight until he becomes a real adult

never trust anyone over 30

wait, the under 30s ate a bucnha malcontents

so gunstar hero pulls a gun on them and is gunstar vilian but hes not evil and only wants to live and thwy are doing the same thing and he fires onem as it cuts to takeshi who sez the operations done and to check the corpses

so its day and kitani is doing evxercizses in the yard and gunstar anti herocomes back and kitani sez he hacked the system and stole the data on how to stop the necklaces

he shows a painting of all the teens icing each other like something outta go nagai and main chick is alive in it and he sez the only one he wants to live is her and tells her to do him

they fire on him andsend him to h e doubel korea and he gets up and answers the phone

is this like jyuuza of the cloudes fighting after being dead?

he sez he's not comming home and if u hate someone, live with the consequences and shoots the phone and keels over

the trio goes off and gunstar hero sez his dads a fsherman andtells em how to go straight unlike boy band guys and goes to have a smoke on the back

he goes on about keiko his gf who got it and bites it and text sez, at the end, i'm glad i found a true friend

the duo are wanted for murder/elping a murderer and go around undercover like that korea movie parasite but good and these guys are NOT living human waste

she has a butterfly knife from b4 that stabbed kitano and they go aorundjapan to hopelful music but they are fugetives and claim to be free but really have nothing

then a memorial thing flashback of them at the b ball game

then main gy recalls his necked friend after the game telling him to protect the chick

then main chick and kitani  by the river walking as these were dreams and they talk abouthis class and how the union or schoolboard is roucgh as you cant defend yourself if a student shanks you

she tells him she keeps the knife at home and its a secret between em

then credits over the class photo and rap from japan to a green day dsounding tune thats pretty late 1990s

the end

That as quite good

nice music and effects

good acting even though I'm watching it dubbed but it holds up

good effects and story

its a well made film and shows teens be8ng teens and choppin eachother up

like if degrassi was less candya55

it drawfrom Go Nagai with thing like Gakuen Taikutsu Otoko\usumu's Big Shock\Kekko Kamen with teens vs adults in school from h-ll

Also Harenchi Gakuen and Abashiri Family

i ejoyed this one, it told a good story and had some good heart with some pretty anime moments

I was gonna review The Amazing Transparent Man but saw this wasb on Pluto TV, I can do this

For Battle Royale 2 I want the couple from the 1st one to have assumed new identities and have gotten into politics and plan to use the power they gain to end the battle royale, but a few people have discovered their pasts and they need em ended, so they sneak out at night and waack em 1 at a time ninja style, also its an 8 bit  game like ninja gaiden on sega master system and game gear, nes and gb, tg16, atari lynx and 7800 where you play as 1 or both of em and go around the neon night city and cut through guys with a washizaki and ninja stars to end the enemies in missions. Then in Battle Royale 3, they got in and gave ower to the teens, but the teens being devolved malcntents go wild and Japan devlves into mad max, so they see the error of their ways and figt through each slum with power armor and waste the leaders of each area gang, also its a 16 bit beat em up on sega genesis, snes, tg16, atari jaguar and gba where you  and a friend play as the couple and bust teens in a ruine city and wasteland that once was japan.
