Not being able to follow along is your personal shortcoming.

Movie is decent but too short. Manga is fantastic, but with questionable dialogue for the localization.

The book is good, but all things considered I think the manga is my favorite version.

I never really saw it that way, I've seen it twice, and really loved it! The second time, I watched it with around 8 other people I had only just begun working with. One was a Japanese chef, and he was laughing his ass off. It's a teenage horror-comedy. It's great.

Still better than the blatant copycats that followed it. At least Battle Royale actually had social commentary and subtext. Or at least social commentary that wasn't completely ham-fisted and bludgeoned you upside the head like a mallet, anyway.

That being said, I'd never say it was "amazing", either. It's above average, though the context can easily be lost if you're a Westerner watching a translated version, and not someone actually from Japan who relates to the subtext and understands it in your native language.

I liked the book just the way it was, I don't know if I could read the manga or watch the movie.
