Bataille Royale

Bataille Royale (バトル・ロワイアル) is an event when one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each district are selected by an annual lottery to participate in the Hunger Games, a contest in which the "tributes" must fight to the death in an outdoor arena until only one remains. The event is televised.
The government has established a military program, the Battle Experiment No. 68 Program to control National unruly youths in protest. Fifty youths from each districts are chosen to compete in the Bataille Royale and forced to kill one another until only one remains. Ostensibly, it is to help the government and its military research survival skills and battle readiness – in actuality, it is meant to instill terror and distrust in all of citizens to curb any attempts at rebellion, by showcasing the government's power and ability to target citizen's families and preying on the fear of being killed by a friend.
The battle grounds are set on an abandoned city island that was evacuated after a nuclear power plant explosion.
