About Battle Royal High School

Here is what Battle Royal High School (真魔神伝 バトルロイヤルハイスクール) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, ecchi and horror anime (1987). At its core: Hyoudo Riki is just an ordinary guy who likes to wear a tiger mask while Kung Fu fighting, which means he fits in real well at BATTLE ROYAL HIGH SCHOOL! Unfortunately for Riki, he's the doppelganger in our world of Byoudo, Master of the Dark Realm, and when a dimension gate opens between the two worlds.

Soon after, now poor Riki is semi-possessed by his opposite number, and the minions of the Fairy Master are mutating his classmates into hideous lustful monsters. To make matters worse, all the inter-dimensional commotion has attracted the attention of a sword-happy exorcist and the heroic Zankan of the Space-Time Police! Which all means that Riki is about to take one bitch of a mid-term.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Kazuki Yao as Riki Hyoudou and Chieko Honda as Megumi Koyama. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. At 1 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.

Production & Appeal

The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Its 5.2/10 score suggests opinions are split, so it suits viewers who already like the genre.
