I've read all three HUNGER GAMES books and the novel BATTLE ROYALE. There is no other novel in the BR universe. There is a manga which is very different, and there are two movies, but the second movie is generally regarded as non-canon (the original novelist and creator was not involved in any way), not to mention being unspeakably awful.

What issues exactly did Hunger Games not address that it should have?

I did not necessarily take the strict dichotomy of poor = good and rich = bad from the film...

That premise is the equivalent of public domain - it's so unoriginal you can't call plagiarism

In this case, the suggestion is justified (at least with the books)

Superiority is not evidence of plagiarism (and arguably more evident of the opposite)

indeed..think of the suits that could run rampant throughout sci-fi/fantasy if that was the case!

Is it really fair to compare the two books of BR to the first book of THG alone?
