Adapted from the famous manga series by Katsuhiro Otomo, this bold, adult and stunningly rendered epic bumped "Japanimation," from the import cult margins into the mainstream. The time is 2019, 31 years after WWIII, during which Tokyo was destroyed by an atomic bomb. The government is performing strange experiments with a mysterious invention called "Akira": Part bomb, part god, it has the ability to endow a human being with apocalyptic strength.
