Battle Royale. I only managed 20 minutes. Do you know anything about it?

I happened to have a 5th grader watching it with me most of the time and she would provide an additional running commentary/explanation of the show.

Sayaka now watches Doraemon in Chinese in Taiwan. My friend Lars (http://www.larseny.com) is translating Doraemon as a part time job from Japanese to English.

Claire – Battle Royale is a famous movie in Japan and there is a more spectacular sequel. It is fascinating in many ways but some are simply disgusted by it. I thought it was interesting. It is really one of a genre of similar movies/books/stories that we have plenty of in the West, but with a little bit of extra Japanese twist…
