Tokyopop To Publish Battle Royale
posted on by Garry Berryhill
Tokyopop will publish the manga that spawned the cult classic movie, with Keith Giffen writing the adaptation.
The manga, set in a fascist Japan that won WWII, focuses on the story of a group of junior high students who are sent to a small island to fight to the death. The manga was created by Koushun Takami and Masayuki Taguchi, and was later adapted into film by the late Kinji Fukusaku.
