Battle Royale II: Requiem


Battle Royale II Requiem , Batoru rowaiaru ts Rekuiemu? , abbreviated as BRII Bii ru ts, is a 2003 Japanese dystopian actionthriller film. It is a sequel to the 2000 film, Battle Royale, which in turn was based upon a controversial 1999 novel of the same title by Koushun Takami. An extended version of the film is titled Battle Royale II Revenge.

Three years after the events of the first film, the survivors of previous Battle Royales have formed a rebel group called the Wild Seven which is led by Shuya Nanahara. A class of teenagers from Shikanotoride Junior High School , Shikanotoride Chgakk? are kidnapped by the Japanese government. Instead of stereotypically studious Japanese students, these ninth graders are a ragtag collection of delinquents and losers from all over Japan, including toughguy rugby players and punks with dyed hair. More importantly, many are orphans whose parents or family died in bombings by the Wild Seven. After their school bus is diverted to an army base, the students are herded into a cage, surrounded by armed guards, and confronted by their schoolteacher, Riki Takeuchi, who lays down the ground rules of the new Battle Royale game. Wild Seven is hiding out on a deserted island filmed on Hashima Island, and instead of being forced to kill each other, as in the old Battle Royale, the students are sent off to war and ordered to attack the terrorist groups hideout en masse and kill Shuya within 72 hours. Most of the students are not interested in being forced to avenge their families, but they are coerced to fight through exploding metal collars, which their captors can detonate by remote control. The teacher shows them a line in the caged classroom those who wish to participate are instructed to cross the line, while those who refuse to participate will be killed. The students are put into pairs if one student dies, then his or her partner will be killed via collar detonation.The students are sent via boats onto the dangerous island base of the Wild Seven. A number of them are killed when they were bombed, shot or their collar detonated during the journey onto the island, leaving only a cluster alive. Most notably, two of the survivors are the delinquent Takuma Aoi and Shiori Kitano, the daughter of Kitano, the teacher of a Battle Royale program who was killed by Shuya three years
