Story ( Battle Royal I) :

The film centers around Shuya Nanahara (Tatsuya Fujiwara), a charismatic young boy living in Kanagawa Prefecture. After his mother abandons him and his father commits suicide, he becomes disillusioned with life. The rest of his classmates are similarly disillusioned, and have little respect for authority. Shuya's best friend, Yoshitoki "Nobu" Kuninobu (Yukihiro Kotani), attacks their teacher Kitano (Takeshi Kitano), but runs away before he can be identified. Noriko Nakagawa (Aki Maeda), a sweet, reserved young girl who happens to witness the incident, hides the knife that Nobu has just attacked Kitano with. Kitano, frustrated, resigns.
The next year, as the students are nearing the end of their compulsory education, they embark on a class trip. On the bus the entire class is gassed, kidnapped, taken to an isolated island, and fitted with electronic collars. Once there, the students are shocked to find that they are inside an abandoned school, and that Kitano (along with the government) is behind the entire operation. Kitano informs them that they have been selected as participants in Battle Royale, a game created by the Millennial Educational Reform Act (better known as the Battle Royale Act) where the students must kill each other until only one is left. One class from the country per year is selected to participate in the program. If after three days a winner is not declared, the explosive collars attached to each student's neck will be detonated. The collars also prevent the students entering certain areas of the field of participation, the "danger zones," the idea being to force students to encounter one another. (These instructions are delivered by a cute, smiling girl via a video, who behaves like a kindergarten teacher and refers to herself as their "big sister".) After killing a student, Fumiyo Fujiyoshi, for whispering, Kitano also detonates Nobu's collar, killing him. One by one, each student leaves the school, having been provided with survival packs and a random weapon.
The students split up. Some of them go into groups, while others stay on their own. A mute boy who signed up for fun named Kazuo Kiriyama, whose weapon is a paper fan, manages to kill his entire team and goes around the island by himself, killing without remorse. Also willing to kill is Mitsuko Souma, who has taken it upon herself to win the game, using everything she has at her disposal, especially her sexuality.
Some students refuse to play the game. Shuya, grieving over Nobu's death, decides to take it upon himself to protect Noriko, the object of Nobu's affection. Elsewhere, class president Yukie Utsumi (Eri Ishikawa) gathers up a group of girls and decides to hide in an abandoned lighthouse, while junior revolutionary Shinji Mimura (Takashi Tsukamoto) gathers his friends and plans to hack the system and blow up the school (along with Kitano), thereby liberating the students.

Story ( Battle Royal II ) :

Battle Royale II seems to express a reaction to the post-9/11 state of the world. The film's opening sequence re-enacts 9/11, Tokyo style. The twin towers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Offices, Tokyo’s tallest buildings, are brought crashing down by Wild Seven's bombs, along with the rest of Shinjuku’s many skyscrapers.
When the kidnapped children are told the rules of the new Battle Royale game by their teacher, Riki, he points out a white line on the floor, and says, "There are only two sides in life, the winners and the losers... This is the line that divides good from evil. It’s black or white. There’s nothing in between." Riki scrawls the names of various countries on a chalkboard: Somalia, Bosnia, Japan, and so on. Riki asks his frightened and bewildered students what all the countries have in common. The answer, Riki spits out in anger, is "In the past sixty years, America has bombed every one of them. Some 8 million dead among 22 nations!" Riki states, "You are either with us or against us".
Once the Battle Royale begins, the classmates' experiences mirror two important chapters in American history, D-Day (similar to Pointe du Hoc landings) and the Vietnam War (when the kids regroup and head into the thick jungle of the Island’s interior to face tripwires and booby traps).
At the end of the film, the last remaining members of the Wild Seven seek refuge in Afghanistan, which was the first target of the War on Terrorism. Without coincidence, Shuya wears the same white robe as Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden (but wields an AK-47 instead of bin Laden's AKS-74U).

从全国中学三年生中选出被认为是最不良的一个班级，令其所有成员在一起自相残杀直至仅余最后一人存活的游戏法则——新世纪教育改革法，通称“BR”。　　三日之内，要么将身边所有同伴杀死，要么等着自己被杀，道路残酷而唯一。而当年最终从这种极限状态中脱逃，残活下来的人，他们后来如何？　　在七原秋也与中川典子从BR中脱身，离开孤岛的两年之后，人类世界进入了恐怖主义时代。首都在反BR国家的“恐怖分子”手下被炸为废墟，政府当局将这次事件的凶犯判定为七原，并开始了对其的国际通缉。　　首都崩坏之后一年……七原做为反BR法组织“wild seven”的领袖，对所有的成人发布了宣战通告。成人们为了剿杀七原，便籍着反恐的正义之名，计划了一次新游戏——新世纪反恐对策特别法，通称BRⅡ。　　这样的背景之下，某天，汇集了来自全国各地的不良少年，以及逃课问题生的鹿之砦中学校的3年B组42名孩子，在圣诞节休学旅行通往滑雪学校的路途中， 沦为了军队的劫持目标，被全员绑架到了一座孤岛之上。当他们被勒令换上军服，并押送集合至一个巨大军营之内时，他们的指导教师RIKI却出现了。“整个班 级无一人例外，将成为本次BRⅡ的参加者”，RIKI向已经陷入混乱的学生们，公布了绑架理由，并说明了BRⅡ的游戏规则。BRⅡ规则：　　1，将潜伏在孤岛之内的恐怖分子七原等全部歼灭者为胜。2，限时为三天。3，采取二人组合接力形式，交替作战，并生死诛连。　　如此，不允许发表任何异议，孩子们集体被强制加入了这场镇压恐怖分子的战斗。他们中，有人因在首都爆炸事件中丧失了全部亲人，而确实对七原怀抱着恨意 与复仇的决心，但是也有人拒绝合作，抵死不从被当场射杀。而跟被杀者同一出席番号的另一组员，因为新游戏的生死诛连规则，颈上的金属项圈自动爆破，亦随之 丧命。剩下的这40名学生们，则按照出席号码的顺序，被迫乘上6艘自动艇，向着最前线的“战场”出发了。　　孩子们奋力滑动着剧烈晃动的小艇，浑身被激浪所拍湿，竭尽所有可能不顾一切向着孤岛进发。然而当他们最后终于即将登陆的时刻，恐怖分子的攻击却开始 了。光弹交织，迫击炮在水面上不断炸响。面对这样的突发状况，惊愕交集的学生们只有躲闪之力，而无还击的准备。有的人全身被子弹穿透如蜂巢，有的人被迎面 飞来的炮弹击中高高飞起。Wild Seven的成员们，并不知道前来进攻七原的这些身着军装的人，竟然是一群中学学生，因此怀揣着对BR国家宣战的全部信念，誓死发动着攻击。在枪林弹雨和 爆炸的火光中终于登上了陆面的学生们，因为弹药告罄本欲暂行撤退，然而，炮火却不歇不缓地接踵袭来，令人毫无藏身之处。战斗到此刻，只剩下了26名成员的 学生们终于醒悟到：原来他们早已经走投无路。于是只有毅然端起了武器，被卷入到成人所阴谋策划的，另一次孩子们自相残杀的战争游戏中去。而到最后，他们以 及七原秋也，到底将会沦为何种命运呢……
