About this product

Product Information

A landmark film that introduced much of the Western world to modern animé, AKIRA is a marvel of modern animation. Based on Katsuhiro Otomo's 2,000 page manga, AKIRA begins on July 16, 1988, when what was believed to be an atomic bomb was dropped on Tokyo, completely destroying the city and marking the beginning of WWIII. Thirty-one years later, Neo-Tokyo has sprung from the ruins of the old city and is experiencing a prolonged period of civil unrest caused by student uprisings, political instability, and, most destructively, biker gangs. One of the members of these biker gangs, Tetsuo, is detained by the military after a near accident with a strange young boy. After recognizing innate psychic ability in him, the military begins using Tetsuo as a test subject to channel Akira, a source of unimaginable power and the cause of the explosion that destroyed the original Tokyo. However, the military's plan backfires, and instead of locating the source of Akira's power, Tetsuo becomes a medium for it. Endowed with incredible psychic powers that make every one of his destructive impulses a reality, Tetsuo begins to go on a rampage that threatens to completely annihilate Neo Tokyo. Combining a complex science-fiction universe with intricately detailed animation and phantasmagoric images, AKIRA is a stunning visual experience and a disturbing vision of the future.

    Akira is one of those movies ALL,i repeat,ALL anime fans should ever watch in their life. The animation is so well done,you wouldn't believe that it was made in 1988.The one scene to check out is the beginning,the part when the motorcycle gang are fighting.The voice overs are done so well,one of the voice you might do know is Johnny Yong Bosch(the voice of Ichigo from Bleach) doing the voice of Kaneda. The only minor complaint is that the manga is slightly more better than the movie,being that there's more sub-plots and more characters to know.If you're lucky enough,look for the manga before watching the movie Akira is ahead of it's time,one of the best movies ever made.Dont waste your time looking at it on Youtube,actually BUY it,and check it out.I give it a ...
