Synopsis
Neo-Tokyo is about to E X P L O D E Akira isn't just a movie it's the genesis of a genre. Katsuhiro Otomo's landmark cyberpunk classic obliterated the boundaries of Japanese animation and forced the world to look into the future. Akira's arrival shattered traditional thinking, creating space for movies like The Matrix to be dreamed into brutal reality.
Without Kaneda and Tetsuo, without sonic assassins, without that badass motorcycle our world would be a far less exciting place to exist. But the manga became the movie and the movie became a phenomenon and the world took notice. Now, Akira is everywhere. If you can't see it in the streets if you can't feel it crawling around inside your brain then you have yet to be initiated.
What. Are. You. Waiting. For?
