The week, we're discussing the maybe-controversial Japanese action thriller from 2000, Battle Royale. Based on the novel by Koushun Takami, a group of high school students believing they're on a class trip are instead taken to an evacuated island and forced to engage in a brutal game of survival over a three-day period. Loyalties and friendships are tested as the classmates must fight each other to the death, for the privilege of being the last student standing, or be killed as well.
**TW: This episode features discussion about suicide and sexual assault relating to underage characters .**
