Talk:List of Battle Royale characters

Yoshitoki's love
It should be noted that, in the manga at least, Yoshitoki was thought by Shuuya to love Noriko, but actually loved Ryoko Anno, the orphanage lady. Read the first few novels carefully, you'll see. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.99.4.17 (talk) 04:32, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That sounds original research. Also, "love" can mean many different things. WhisperToMe (talk) 04:50, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Original character articles
If all the character articles were supposedly merged into this one, can anyone explain why the originals still exist? I'm not opposed to them still existing, but do they need to? Caissa&#39;s DeathAngel (talk) 23:19, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * No they don't, and shouldn't. They do not pass WP:N --Kraftlos (talk) 20:28, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

I am now redirecting all the individual articles again - see also Talk:Battle Royale. WP:N and WP:WAF are also relevant here. Marasmusine (talk) 12:17, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * We can separate the articles again if we find information about the creation/conception of the characters and reception/reactions to the characters. If we only have plot info, the characters will remain in this article. While Battle Royale has a lot written about it, it is all in Japanese. We will need to get people from JA on board and/or secure hard-to-find publications. In addition we will have to post the Japanese text and, on another site, keep scans to confirm what was said.
