Booty Royale

Booty Royale: Never Go Down Without a Fight!, known in Japan as Hagure Idol: Jigoku-hen (はぐれアイドル 地獄変), is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Rui Takato. It was serialized in Nihon Bungeisha's Bessatsu Manga Goraku in 2014 before being transferred over to Manga Goraku Special in 2015.

Plot
Misora Haebaru is an 18-year-old karate expert from Okinawa who decides to move to Tokyo in order to realize her dream of becoming a famous singer. When she arrives there, however, she discovers that her handlers have tricked her into joining the adult entertainment industry. As such, Misora is forced to participate in a martial arts tournament where she has to fight 100 opponents. If she loses, she must have sex with them.

Manga
Written and illustrated by Rui Takato, Booty Royale: Never Go Down Without a Fight! was first serialized in Nihon Bungeisha's Bessatsu Manga Goraku from April 25, 2014, to December 25 of the same year, when the magazine ceased its publication. The manga was then transferred over to Manga Goraku Special, where it began serialization on March 10, 2015. The magazine last print issue was released on July 15, 2020. The magazine went online on August 15 of the same year. Nihon Bungeisha has collected its chapters into individual volumes. The first volume was released on November 19, 2014. As of November 28, 2022, sixteen volumes have been released.

In July 2022, Takato wrote on his Twitter account that he was retiring from drawing manga, although the statement was unclear whether his retirement was going to be permanent or temporary, as he alternated between wording that implied both, and that Booty Royale would go on hiatus. Takato elaborated that due to circumstances at his home, it was difficult to constantly draw manga about "boobs and sex." Takato stated that if the situation in his household changed, he might consider continuing the manga. He added that he was satisfied with his work on the manga as a hybrid "softcore porno" and "battle" manga, and that the series constantly sold well. He also noted, however, that his motivation for continuing the manga was not high given the circumstances surrounding its production. The last chapter before entering on hiatus was released on September 15, 2022. The series returned from its hiatus on March 15, 2024.

The manga is licensed in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment under their Ghost Ship mature imprint in two-in-one omnibus edition.

A spin-off series, titled Hagure Idol Jigoku-hen Gaiden: Princess Sarah (はぐれアイドル地獄変外伝 プリンセス・セーラ), was serialized on the online platform Goraku Egg in 2015. Its chapters were collected in a single volume released on February 19, 2016.

Live-action film
A live-action film adaptation, directed by Tsuyoshi Shōji at Sedic Deux and starring Rina Hashimoto as Misora, premiered in Japan on September 12, 2020.
