The official website for Masafumi Yamada’s upcoming movie X Game 2 has been updated with a YouTube embed of its new trailer.
The movie is a sequel to 2010’s X Game, a live-action adaptation of a popular novel by Yusuke Yamada.
In the first movie, an adult used a sadistic “punishment game” as revenge for his own experience being bullied at a young age.
The sequel stars Aika Ohta of the pop idol group AKB48 as Misuzu Saeki, a student who gets trapped in a classroom along with nail stylist Yuko Hagiwara (Natsumi Hirajima) and three others. Soon, a monitor appears and a “lesson” begins which forces them to begin solving exam problems at the risk of severe physical punishment.
Meanwhile, as rumors begin to spread of an organization enacting vengeance for victims of bullying, a reporter for a weekly magazine (Ryoichi Yuki) begins an investigation.
