Similar to the American cover.
This is much more menacing cover. It is accurate to the contents of the Hunger Games.
The problem with this cover is that it is aimed at girls. The quote is from Stephanie Meyers and it gives off the impression that this is a book for girls, and so boys might be hesitant to buy it.
The problem with this cover is the same as the problem with the previous cover. It makes it seem like a boys book, and could potentially turn off girls from purchasing it.
Anime is popular in Japan, so it makes sense that the cover (exciting as it is) would be in that genre.
A nice cover, but it gives off the wrong impression that Katniss and Peeta are lovers, when in actuality, they are not. (Though I have not read past book one, so maybe they could be, but at this point, they are not.)
