Battle Royale
Has anybody here read Battle Royale? It is by far my favorite book, but it is quite violent. There is also a movie and a manga series based on it but the movie leaves out some parts and the manga is more graphic.

If you've read the book, did you find it weird when Shuya seemed to know how people died (like Hirono)? I didn't really understand.

The book was absolutely amazing. Best book I've ever read.
When did Shuya know that? Perhaps he saw the corpses? Or maybe it was in that strange hallucinatio he had.

Shuya had a dream while he was asleep in the lighthouse. He goes into the classroom, but only sees the other student's dead bodies, and sees their corpses like how they died (Like he sees Megumi's throat slit, but I don't think he ever saw her body). I just thought that part was kinda weird.

Haven't read it. But I watched the movie and it was pretty gore.
Is the movie or the book better?
