Nice jacket, I thought.
I want one like that.

I suppose. But they all managed to fire guns alright - despite no prior experience.

I suppose.
But you'll also notice there was jack recoil when they fired the guns. Steady hands all the way.

The teacher didn't know.
They WERE going on a school trip, which was probably planned by the government, and told the head of the school.
When the teacher discovered what was going on (on the bus, or after, or he would have told the kids beforehand), he objected, THEN they killed him.

Yea Kiriyama was my favourite, very cool and crazy

Good point about the recoil plus it's easier to hit the body then the head, although as some of the time they were almost point black they could have aimed for the head then

Kiriyama.
He was a crazy foo.
But he was cool.

Put it this way, aim at their chest, then recoil will cos you to aim further up and uless you've got arms of steel, so you can get several bullets to hit the head.

B: They're schoolkids, they're not supposed to know.

C: back to recoil, if you aimed at the head, and missed, you'd start shooting above them, then you're dead.

Yeah, but I meant when they're on the island, and he writes BR Act on the board - none of them know what he's on about.

Yeah, them kids seemed to be able to take a whole load of bullets before dying. And why everyone always aimed for the torso is beyond me - even that crazy guy, surely he'd be sensible enough the save bullets and just blow their heads off.

*Spoilers and things*



They thought they were going on a school trip didn't they from what i remember on the bus ride, because Nobu says to Noriko thanks for talking me into coming on the trip.

Only the teacher knew and he got killed because of it when he objected

Just managed to watch it today.
Then watch it again straight after.

Much greatness - much, much greatness.
I love the little numbers on the bottom saying who's died - a nice touch. And all the different stories were very well done.

Although - how come none of them had heard of it before? Seeing as that guy had been in one 4 times ago (if I remember) - and from the girl at the start, there were TV reporters there, so they must have heard of it.
Foolish children.
