why does it feel like so many battle royalesque manga series are being thrown in my face ever since dangan ronpa became popular

Battle Royalesque manga have been popular and numerous since the eighties, anon. You're just noticing them now, or other people have been and are showing them to you.

i read somewhere that the popularity of battle royalesque stuff is a reaction to people's real-world social concerns... series where young people are forced to compete or die by coldhearted authority figures (who represent the older generation) supposedly reflect worries about youth unemployment, student debt, and media sensationalism of youth violence/laziness/etc.

so it's not really surprising that they're popular right now. they tap into a lot of inter-generational conflict, and that kind of stuff is all over the news lately.

which series

haven't gotten into dangan ronpa yet but this is one of my favorite things
