BR2 was really rubbish compared to the first. It just turned into a load of boring gun battles and action sequences and lacked the psychological edge and story of the first.

Firstly that wasn't a comic, that was a manga. Secondly that was number two in a series, not based on the second movie.

Finally, yes it is sophisticated, the manga offers far more plot development and character background then the movie does.

Isnt manga just the Japanese word for comic?

At the end of the day if you want to call it manga, graphic novels or whatever else they get known as these days, all of that stuff is still known as comics.

Manga is just the name for Japanese comics.

No idea. What I do know is that "Manga" was the most successful brand/company for Anime in the UK: so the name stuck just like americans say the company name 'Xerox' instead of 'photocopy'.

Urgh Battle Royale 2 sucked big time, the plot made no sense whatsoever and the main character sucked.

Also I thought anime was japanese animation and manga was japanese comics?

anime = japanese animation
manga = comics

also Battle Royal 2 was pretty damn good, you`re just fed up because it wasn`t a rehash of the first one. the 2nd one is more about the politics of it all and stuff. i can certainly see why some people DON`T like it though.
