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.

Gorgeous animation, exquisite music, and some truly fantastic, arresting visuals. Story-wise.....it’s alright??? Definitely feels like a cliff notes version of a larger story at times and the character development isn’t much. But it’s a freaking masterpiece of craft.

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.
