Takako's story is further explored in this installment. I found myself increasingly warming to her character, I was just hoping that her survival would have lasted longer, I felt she had more to give and it was upsetting that her life was cut short so soon. I did love the story with her and Sugimura, though, it was sad but heartwarming in a way as well.
This book is just as good as all the other volumes, the usual deep psychological analysis of school children under the worst kind of pressure - the pressure to survive. It keeps you gripped throughout, something that can be easily said about all 15 volumes. Definitely worth the read and the five stars! ( )

This one is a bit weaker than the previous three. I should note that I felt so neutrally about the book that I haven't yet (in several years) purchased the remainder of the series. I've enjoyed the first three graphic novels of the series immensely, but I found Volume 4 to be a little less enjoyable than the previous volumes.

I guess my main objection is that it didn't seem like that much happened in this book. Sure, a few more students died (I won't reveal any spoilers here about specifically who did what to whom), but after I was done reading the book, I was left with the feeling that not much had happened. That's probably not uncommon for middle volumes in long series like this one; I'd expect that the pace will pick up in the next volume.

The art is as good as ever, and there are some truly creepy close-ups of at least one character who's gone mad. There is a decent amount of violence, including a very nice surprise in one of the scenes, and the graphic sex that was present previously in the series is absent from this volume (so if that turned you off the series before, you won't have to worry about that with this one).

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed Volume 4, and I do still intend to pick up Volume 5 at some point, but I do hope that the rest of the books are stronger than this one. Obviously, if you're new to Battle Royale, I'd advise you to start with Volume 1, you won't regret it!
