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)

I think I know what was going on! The animation in this is stunning and don’t worry it’s not one of those gross anime movies that rightfully get you shunned from society.

Pretty funny how early and insignificant the iconic bike scene is. Wish there was more thematic depth, but this kind of animator lineup, it's hard to deny it as a pure visual spectacle. Any film would be blessed to have just one of Okiura, Inoue, Kigami, etc. and yet this has them all.

It's a hell of a trip to rewatch this as an adult. It's far deeper than just a stylish, futuristic and cool anime, that my child-self had stored away. The animation is obviously fantastic but the story itself somehow feels way ahead of its time and also still relevant for the now.

Watching it three decades later it's naturally pretty dated. But its greatness still shows, and it's not difficult to remember the experience of seeing it for the first time back when I was young.
