I can say this right here and now to get it out of the way. I DO NOT care about the art of a manga I care for a story. But I despised this art with every fiber of my being.

I really really liked the first Battle Royale, I would put it in my top 3. When I heard there was a second Battle Royale I bet you could see the joy on my face. I was so very disappointed.

The Storyline was too different from the first and the art and characters were not developed whatsoever. This is the only manga I have ...

Preliminary (454/700 chp)
Years and years ago a magazine called Shounen Jump came out in America. A lot of kids went wild over so many manga in one place, it was like a dream of sorts. Many interesting manga were in Shounen Jump like Yu-Gi-Oh and Dragon Ball Z which was put on air in America so there was some familiar faces and hopefully more to add to the memories. One manga that caught my eye was a little manga by the name of Naruto.
