I love the characters and the way they're presented and the whole psychological aspect of 'hey, let's stick a bunch of kids on an island, tell them they have to kill each other, and see how they react!' I believe that's why Battle Royale is great - it delves into the human mind and explores why some people are willing to kill others beyond 'lol, fighting for what I think is right!'

Really?
I'd say that BR is, if anything, a study in self-justifications people come up with to escape the fact, that their lives and their actions are out of their control, and the only choice they have is to act in a way repulsive to them.
Transforming, if only in their heads, acts, made under inescapable duress, into acts of their free will as a way to somehow avoid the crushing trauma of victimhood.
A nice metaphor for human existence as seen through the lens of determinism (either theological or not), with free will and maybe even consciousness itself as epiphenomena, if you will.

Because "why some people are willing to kill others beyond 'lol, fighting for what I think is right" - that's, like, almost any halfway decent book where anyone kills anyone else ever.
