Rating: 8/10 (24 June 2006)

There is a long,long time I don't watch ''Akira'', and when it was released, I was just 2 years old. I remember being afraid of this movie, since it is very violent, full of blood and bizarre things/people that were quite shocking when you are young. If I am correct,'' Akira'' was also one of the first anime movies to be watched here in the West and anime in general would become very popular during the 90's around here.
''Akira '' has a lot of destruction during all the movie and also in the manga, and the story has as a present theme, the idea of people with superhuman powers, the government always manipulating things behind our backs, the big corruption that is always around and teenagers being delinquents and alienated.
