Mankind is once again upon the very brink of total annihilation.
The powerful psychic force known simply as Akira resurfaces. Tetsuo, a young biker, is taken beyond the very bounds of sanity by the power of Akira, and as a result he is forced to lift up spirits laying within his subconscious. The animation was really great, but I also liked the story. It really made you think. There was an attempted rape scene, and there is sometimes much bloodshed.
