Synopsis:
It's been three years since Battle Royale's survivors, Nanahara and Noriko, escaped from the island and the world has descended into and Age of Terrorism. The wild seven, led by Nanahara, is an anti-state organisation that has declared war upon the adults that force teenagers to kill each other under the murderous BR Act. Fearful and desperate, the goverment has now passed a Millennium Anti-Terrorism Act, better known as BRII.

On thier way to a ski vacation, a coach load of Junior High School children are abducted by the military and forced to put on uniforms with lethal explosive necklaces. They are given 72 hours to hunt down and kill Nanahara and the Wild Seven, or they will face certain death at the hands of the authorities.

This explosive and much anticipated sequel to Kinji Fukusaku's celebrated and controversial original seriously ups the ante, both in terms of bloody violence and dark social satire. This is one war on terror that will definatly get your vote.
