Product Description
In the sequel to the blockbuster "Battle Royale", the world is catapulted into a catastrophic era. In order to oppose international terrorism forever, a troop of idealistic people volunteers to play another dreadful game called "New Century Special Anti Terrorism Method", which is also called "BR II"! For the highly anticipated follow up of the record breaking film its producers had to go through the torture of selecting 42 out of 6000 students. The lucky ones got to play parts in this high budget second episode that offers even more terrifying scenes!
It's three years after the events of the original Battle Royale, and Shuya Nanahara is now an internationally-known terrorist determined to bring down the government. His terrorist group, Wild Seven, stages an attack that levels several buildings in Tokyo on Christmas Day, killing 8000 people.
Exactly one year afterward, the government enacts the "New Century Terrorist Counter - Measure Alternative" program, a.k.a. the BRII act, and sends the forty-two students of Shikanotoride Junior High Class 3-B to hunt Nanahara and his cohorts down in their island stronghold. Shiori Kitano, the daughter of the late headmaster of Nanahara's Battle Royale, signs up for the program, to avenge her father. In order for the government to study the benefits of "teamwork," the new students work in pairs, with their collars electronically linked so that if one of them is killed, the other dies as well. They must kill Nanahara in three days--or die.
