Wild Seven is a terrorist group (freedom fighters in their own right) in the 2003 film Battle Royale II: Requiem. They are led by Shuya Nanahara.
The name "Wild Seven" is derived from the nickname of Shuya Nanahara from the first movie, which itself is derived from a fictional brand of cigarettes that Shogo Kawada smoked in the first film, itself derived from the real-life cigarette brand Mild Seven.
