Akira (1988)
Kaneda is a bike gang leader whose close friend Tetsuo gets involved in a government secret project known as Akira. On his way to save Tetsuo, Kaneda runs into a group of anti-government activists, greedy politicians, irresponsible scientists and a powerful military leader. The confrontation sparks off Tetsuo's supernatural power leading to bloody death, a coup attempt and the final battle in Tokyo Olympiad where Akira's secrets were buried 30 years ago. (imdb)

Murky, confusing storytelling can't quite dampen the stunning animation on display here, creating a vivid and tactile feel for its dystopian world unlike any other animated effort (and though it misses Nostradaming the COVID crisis, it does forsee the 2020 Tokyo Olympics!) Would likely improve on a rewatch where plot points might become clearer, but shortfalls and all most definitely deserves its reputation as an "adult animation" landmark.

A perfect animated film. Exhilarating set pieces, beautifully done animation, and a gripping story. It's impact reaches not just anime, cartoons, and comics but also on big budget Hollywood movies.

I expected this to be a lot better than it was. So much hype only to disappoint. I'm not really sure what the core theme/lesson was... as there was constant mixed-messaging.

Saw it on a big-ish screen at an independent cinema. Total sensory overload in the best way possible. Symphony of screeching metal, exploding viscera and burgeoning tetsuosterone steadily escalating into incomprehensible, blood-churning pandemonium. 20 minutes in I started hemorrhaging blood out of my nose and ears and when I got home I went online and ordered 14 motorcycles.
