Bibliobattle

Hiroshima University Preliminary Round for the National University Biblio Battle 2025.

What is a Bibliobattle?

A “Biblio Battle” is an intellectual book review game where participants (called “battlers”) introduce books they’ve read and found interesting.
Here’s how it works:

  1. Each battler brings a book they want to recommend.
  2. One by one, they give a 5-minute presentation about their book.
  3. After each presentation, there is a 2–3 minute group discussion.
  4. Once all presentations are finished, everyone votes for the book they most want to read.
  5. The book with the most votes becomes the “Champion Book.”
