n) a movie in which in one of the last scenes, while the last survivors are on a boat, one of their friends dies from bullet wounds, and as he lays dieing, making a lovely speech, he gets a hard-one, a zinger, a boner, and you can see it through his jeans as he lays there, go ahead! Watch it again! ITS THERE!
"Battle Royale is both cool and odd..."
"Yeah and in the end that one guy gets a boner!"

A book that's about 42 kids going to an island where they are have to kill eachother becase a law. This book was turned into a manga and a movie.(Both are good)

Themanga shows more gore.
The movie lease out all the backstories.
Hopefully the American version of Battle Royale won't suck as much as people saying it will be.

A misspelling of the popular Japanese book/manga and movie called Battle Royale
If you haven't already seen the film, I suggest you go and see it unless you are really into manga then you could read that first.
To see what its about then read some entries on the Battle Royale definitions.
"Hey did you know how to spell Battle Royale?"
"No I don't, I'll try anyway and create a thread for a misspelt version on Urban Dictionary"
"OK fair enough."

The Film was highly controversial, the book was highly controversial...Fuck it! Everything about it was controversial. Koushun Takami wrote the novel and it immediately became a cult classic. The book gives a much deeper isight into each of the characters and unfortunately the film turns the whole story into a shacky violence crazed story. My advice: Read the book, Screw the movie
42 students, 1 island, an assortment of weapons and if after 3 days they dont kill each other until 1 is left...They all die.

The term "Battle Royale" is often misused. The real definition is an intense battle between 2 men, named Roy and Al. If 2 people engage in an intense battle, and they happened to be named Roy and Al. If you see this, you are truly blessed and should be appreciative that you get to see a true Battle Royale.

*And the "e" is thrown on at the end just for fancy sauce.
Person 1: Hey, Roy and Al are fighting!
Person 2: Holy balls! Battle Royale!...a real one! This has been my lifelong goal, and finally, it is happening.

Heres an improved definition.

A Japanese movie. This movie is about, basically, a government plan to reduce poverty levels by getting rid of the one thing that keeps them down, the youth of the nation. The thing is, the government passed a law called the BR act. In it, a class of 9th grade students is put on a completely deserted island with explosive collars on. If they try to take it off, it explodes. If they are in a danger zone, it explodes and any of the people who run the contest can detonate it using a remote, too. If there is more than one survivor by the end of the 3 days, all of the collars explode. Each student is given a pack with food, water, a map, a flashlight and most importantly, a weapon. SOme get cool weapons (guns), some get average weapons (sharp objects), while others get completely screwed (Nannahara's pot-lid, for example). In the movie, the class that is chosen is also given 2 new transfer students. One of the transer students (Kawada Shugo) is experienced and knows a way out. The other transfer student (Kiriyama Kazuo) is psychotic and crazy. This movie, in my opinion, is great and should be watched by everyone. It is good in every categorie (except for family friendlieness, but who looks for that?) and pretty entertaining while at the same time thought provoking! Another interesting note is that it was based off a novel and also has a manga.
I'm American but I'm not some wapanese, I liked Battle Royale alot for what it was, not just because it was Japanese.
Fav part? Probably when Kitano shot his cell phone. Best hang-up EVER! BR 2 isn't that good but it's okay.
