The manga will be re-released soon in "super size" volumes. 3 volumes crammed into one.

Can I kill my friends?! - 11-28-2008, 03:52 AM


No.

Not even if they are able to respawn.

"And I ain't in it for the power,
And I ain't in it for my health
I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all
And I sure ain't in it for the wealth
But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop
If you wanna get it done,
You gotta do it yourself..."

yeah u should watch it. they gather a class of 42 students and put them in an island. they attack a necklace with a bomb. if you try to take it off ur neck explodes. out of 42 only 1 can survive the game. if their is more than one survivor in the game after 72 hours all the necklaces explode and no one wins. you could watch it in youtube

The movie's pretty awful, but could I kill my friends so that I could survive? Sure. It's instinct. I wouldn't kill my lover or dog or parents, but friends, sure - I hope they'd do the same. Besides, I don't have 42 friends, so the other nobodies would be the easiest to kill.

well honestly the novel is a million times better than the movie. reading it gives you a sense of realism while watching the movie gives me second hand embarassment and also seems corny at the emotional parts!

as to killing me own friends? no; but i think the book is an unbelievable "what if" sooo...

The whole class isn't friends... of course it would be easy to kill the ones that don't have a realationship with you. sad but true!

I can't believe people didn't like the movie?

I loved the movie! Especially the lighthouse scene. That scene was classic!

Well now... I might have to check out this story.

I'm reading a bit about it now, and it sounds... Interestingly disturbing, lol.
