#Akira
Akira is one of the best animated pieces of the past century, especially when you realize that it is such a smooth animation that was hand drawn on paper.
True. It's better than anime these days too. It's just a masterpiece.
Don't forget cowboy bebop and samurai champloo
I hate 90% of todays anime, its the same shit copy pasted over and over and over and over again, this is what happens when industry goes in hands of large corporations who only care about $. The reason old anime was good is because it was made by a few guys who just liked doing what they`r doing, in a sense anime and gaming industry fell to the same problem.
@@tezwoacz WHAT i like about the akira movie is that the fight beetwen tetsuo and kaneda fall in the trope knows as:
Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?: Kaneda shows no fear confronting a super-powered Tetsuo, even barking orders at him. Of course, from his point-of-view it's just his own childhood friend Tetsuo.
and thats having some big balls right there , i like the fact that he dosent go like ´but he is mi friend i cant hurt him´ tho to be fair a that point tetsuo was beyond salvation
@@tezwoacz Facts.
Vegeta sure had a tough childhood
Yeah his hairline is fucked
atleast their planet didnt get blown
Ha! Yeah!

When I finally saw *Akira* , I was really impressed by how well made it was despite it being made over 3 decades ago! It was hands down one of the best anime movies I will ever see!
Add also Steamboy! It followed the same animation regime as Akira, leaving the animators take as much time as they wanted to finish their given scenes.
It took a lot of time and money, but the result is a masterpiece.
Seriously people, If you liked Akira you are going to LOVE Steamboy.
@@nikmaxter Thank you for the recommendation!
also astroboy, it's kinda good ngl
@@y4ngers The new astroboy film (well, new, it has been a few years) was good. Very heavy sometimes too. It was very interesting to see the character design that inspired the whole manga/anime artstyle for years to come.
@@nikmaxter true
"Great power comes with responsibility"
Tetsuo: *ignores*
"Great power = fuck up everything"
Tetsuo: YES
Kaori’s death shook me the most. The poor girl didn’t deserve to die. All she ever did was love Tetsuo. Being crushed to death is probably the worst way to go too. I’d rather be shot to death like in the manga than be crushed. Still though, that poor girl.
My dad showed me this when I was very little and I was thinking about this yesterday. The sheer coincidence and flood of memories was absolutely incredible.
That ain’t coincidence it happens to me all the time
@@wisenotwise2676 me too....let's share some.... Yesterday I was suggested to watch a play online in which the main protagonists at a certain point starts believing that he is a king and wears bedsheet like a cape. The thing is that before starting to watch the play I was feeling cold and instead of wearing my sweater, that's right... I wore it like a cape tied around my neck. (This isn't something I do usually but I did before seeing the play) ✨

Not coincidence, but synchronicity
This is the first time I've seen someone do an animation recap, just like how people do movie recaps. Love this type of content, now you have me hooked.
@puteqx can confirm, it is pretty great
Have you not seen anime in minutes?
@@TheAvaricious. he has
@@TheAvaricious. but his life is focused in getting top comments in YT xD
mf stop appearing in every video i watch!!!!
Let's be honest here, we all had no idea what Akira was about because we were young while watching it, but still enjoyed it since it's something new to us, the art style, the story telling, the whole idea itself was a masterpiece till this day.
Exactly man, I stumbled upon the full movie on RUclips one summer and I watched it tons and tons of times over and over, this movie will always be one of my favorites
I never understood why people like this movie so much, the Animation is good but everything else? I just don't get it, the only anime movie I've ever considered a masterpiece is sword of the stranger.
@@ZER0O9 storytelling I guess
I'm older and I STILL don't understand it
@@ZER0O9 you would have to read the manga but basically 3 kids were experimented on and one was basically turned into a god and that is Akira at the end when he saves tetsuo and guides him to the right path and he creates his own universe it's way more complicated but yea
One thing is for sure, the animators who made Akira were channeling god-like powers. The attention to detail is stunning.
with limited colors and potato computers
yes they're
@@rin0847 They did not have limited colours and they did not use a computer that is why it is good. Computer animation is a poor shortcut compared to the real thing.
@@ericconnor8419 whatever
I read the books and even in them, the details are just amazing. 😎😎
They somehow predicted where the Olympics would be too
the animation in this is SO much better than a lot of modern anime.
I was absolutely devasted when Kaori died. She literally didn't deserve anything that happened to her.
Same, she was a really sweet girl, probably the nicest character in the whole story, and the manga really made me feel for her
@@lonelywolf140 so Tru
dont worry she gets remade and lives happily in tetsuo's new universe.
@@Huyle18 We don't know that and I don't think that happens to her in the manga but it does bring me comfort knowing she might have a better life in another time.
@@lonelywolf140 we do have clues that tetsuo, akira, and the others do get roles in the next universe. Tetsuo is a god now so he could of easily remade her. Her "dna" did get pulled into the new universe.
The progression of everyone trying to stop Akira reminds me slightly of the last episode of Invincible.
And the satellite laser
I’ve only ever seen Akira in bits and pieces so I was surprised to see that
@Diavolo Jaegar yes, the most expensive nosebleed
The scene in "Invincible" with the satellite, as well as the action sequence in Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker," were both an homage to the SOL satellite scenes in "Akira."
Aot
I remember seeing that transformation scene when I was a kid, like 6-7 years old. Literally came on tv at like 3am when I should've been asleep, came downstairs to see my dad sleeping on the couch while this guy's arm is just getting horrifically huge. Definitely gave me a bit of a body horror phobia for a few years
Off topic but this exact thing happened to my brother but it was green inferno, if you don’t know what it is do NOT search it up
I remember watching a preview for the film on Adult Swim back when I was like 12-13 years old, which was sometime during the film’s 25th anniversary
@@SONMEV3 isn't green inferno the one about a disease?
@@SONMEV3 oof that hurts
@@lick28 No its about how not all tribes are good. that tribe literally ate some of there bodys
I first saw Akira during a hurricane alert. Somehow, amidst al of the rain, wind and blackouts, I managed to watch the entire movie. I'll never forget that transformation scene. Man it was disgusting and amazing at the same time.
This movie revolutionized anime and pushed animation generations forward. There may be other movies that were technical marvels before and around the time of Akira, but this was the most recognizable and prolific.
"When Kay, inspired by Jesus, walks on water" my favorite line 14:42
“You can’t do this, you guy’s are animals!”
I thought he was called K.
"Two of them pullin' out the blixky" lmao I didn't expect that.
I got into Akira in a unique way.
A couple of years ago, during Thanksgiving, I saw an Akira poster at a cinema named the "Hollywood Palms" and it looked very intriguing. The tagline is what got me: "Neo Tokyo is about to EXPLODE." I didn't look into it further, though.
A couple of weeks later, I saw the clip of Tetsuo's mutation, and it left me craving for more.
That's when I found videos on RUclips that motion-animated the books. You can find them, but they're in Spanish.
Anyway, the point is that I'm glad to have discovered it.
What thanks I been wanting anyone toanimate those lmao
If you loved the movie, then you NEED to read the manga its even more amazing
@@johncenagaming581 I own it but ive been waiting decades to see it actually get animated idk if they'd be able to resist adding some woke "THE MESSAGE" into it if it were made today lmao so idk that's why I wws stoked to hear that but I couldn't find it anyone have a link?..oh oops wrong thread lol yes if u like the anime u will love the manga it makes more sense too
Akira is an incredible representation of Japanese animation history! The movie is a beautiful work of art and inspired many artists and films thereafter.
Man, Tetsuo literally lost control of god-like powers because he's a crybaby about always getting himself into trouble. Hates his friends because they care too much. What a baby.
Great review bro!! I love your sense of humor during the recap, really kept it entertaining, keep it up. You earned a new subscriber!!!
Thank you! Will do!
1:39 the kid thats grown ass man he even has rinkles and look at how his hair is white
The question I have is this, “ How might things have turned out different if he hadn’t been treated like a monster from the outset?”, I grant it’s been a long while since I last saw this movie in its entirety.
He became mentally unstable all on his own. No one did that to him except, perhaps, the psychic influence of Akira. The violent tendencies were just a symptom of his condition. Nothing anyone could have done or said would have helped.
In the most ideal scenario the government would have kept him on the drugs that suppressed his power. He would have became dependent on them like the other children. Where would things have gone from there? He'd probably be studied in the hope that other people could gain these powers without the drawbacks. Living his life like a pampered lab rat and/or used as a bio weapon against Japan's enemies.
Regardless of how well or how badly the person is treated, the psychic powers in this story setting are implied to be ultimately uncontrollable by any being. That's why the first explosion at the start of the movie occurred.
The psychic powers demonstrated by both Tetsuo and Akira are supposedly so infinite in scope, they say that in the manga that this anime is based on, that Akira (and maybe also Tetsuo?) eventually causes a Big Bang in another dimension and the start of an entirely new universe.
Exactly the fact the kids terrorized him when he has been kidnapped and hospitalized. Who wouldnt suspect everybody around them. Then the power corrupted him
Y'know, it's funny...
Outset is an anagram of Tetsuo
De-escalation would require specialized attention: Tetsuo suffers from an inferiority complex. He's lashing out simply because this is the first time in his life where he can do so as much as it is a response to being persecuted.
so akira used tetsuo to free himself so he can stop tetsuo, well played.
Ehh, not really, Akira is really not to blame, he didn't even plan for any of this to happen
I think Akira's storyline is sort of the ultimate example of narrative reduction in order for a story to fit a medium transition. Akira originally released as a six-part manga. And not just normal sized mangas, we're talking like world encyclopedia sized books. The Akira Manga series is Japan's version of the Odyssey.
When Akira was made into an anime, the studio literally could not afford to make six movies or a television series. Anytime a narrative transitions from one media form to another there are bound to be certain concessions made. For example there are numerous characters who were core to the narrative of the manga that were reduced down to one scene or even just a background appearance in the anime. While there are certain elements of world building that are transitioned well from exposition to cinematic demonstration, there are many other elements that are just left unexplained or not even brought up. The Akira movie is certainly very visually impressive and it is definitely an iconic piece of animated history. I believe it is the first time we saw such a violent and gritty animated narrative transition from Japan to American audiences. But it has the same feel to it as the watchmen movie, where it just feels like there's some scenes missing, like the story doesn't quite line up. I know that the watchman was made as a multi-medium experience, meaning you are supposed to both read the comic and watch the movie to understand what's going on. I don't think Akira was made with that same consumption experience in mind. I think that just due to time and budget and constraints certain parts of the story got left on the editing room floor. If you have the opportunity, I definitely recommend reading the Akira manga, it just helps you get the full impact of the story.
This movie left such a huge impression on me. I remember how much American media played up on it's gory scenes, but I was happily surprised to see such a comprehensively well written story it had. I had always wanted to see what godlike power would really look like, and it's fully realized in this film. Without a doubt my favorite animated film ever made, and I love introducing people to it!
I first watched Akira at the age of 5 on a bootleg VHS my brother brought home.
I never understood the movie plot but I was drawn into the 240p over saturated copied version of the Official stunning animation we can see today in 4K print.
The red leather jacket and bike scene had my attention. The fight scene's, the swearing and the way their body moved was far beyond the level of cartoons I was watching at 5 years old (Flinstones, Rugrats, Simpsons)
IT WAS FROM THAT MOMENT - I got into anime and watched all the stash my bro kept (Ninja scroll, Street Fighter 2 and Dangioh) Syfy Channel showed Fist of the north star at 11pm and eventually Toonami showed Dragonball Z.
Years later everyone in the school playground were talking about Arthur and Ed, Edd n Eddy but the only Anime they knew was Pokemon.
I was watching them with judgment and sad eyes because by then our akira VHS was long gone and I could've led everyone to real world of Anime. It was not their destiny
Then in 2003 Pioneer released the 2 disc Edition of Akira and I got it from HMV, I was around 12-13 years old but the old lady didn't even look at the 15 certificate. All she saw was a "cartoon" (LUCKY ME)
This time around I was sure i would understand the plot. WRONG!
I was still confused. I got the gist of it but I still had too many questions etc
I went to my local library, put in a request and lo behold they ordered the MANGA set of AKIRA.
I read it all.
That shit got me depressed and thinking about society as a whole and mankind lol. The manga comes in 6 volumes which follows a richer and more thought provoking path.
I then stuck on the dvd and just like the explosion in the beginning of AKIRA...... I was blown away
This right here is why I always encourage my friends to at least try watching anime..its more than a "cartoon" it's something that gives us a different perspective on life ,it shows us different emotions ,gives us a sense of being ,anime is an amazing art that should be shared....I'm just glad there are people who appreciate it and love anime ,godspeed to you and may you live a wonderful life.
@@celina1072 Thank you for the message.
I couldnt agree more with everything you said, Akira specifically is a timeless classic and it still makes me laugh hysterically when I remember it was from the 80s!
I was a 90s kid so it was easy to grow up to adult material. I had no business watching BERSERK or FIST OF THE NORTH STAR at 10 years old lol, but how the hell can any kid go from gritty and raw animation story telling to plain old Disney's Tarzan? Its a huge leap in difference both in culture and style. (fyi Disney holds its own Merit)
However I got my friends and family into anime and seeing their reactions and growth spoke volumes. It was like showing a music fan Michael Jackson for the first time, how can you live not knowing the best of the best?
At the end of the day, we all are in this community and part of the popculture and its awesome to meet other fans. If you do have instagram then follow me on @cyberpunk_chill. Would love to show you my Akira themed room lol
Take care buddy!
I never got it either and don't know why it was hailed so much I mean ghost in the shell was so superior
@@MissBunny850 well my take is this. When GITS came out 'I EXPECTED' and was 'NOT SUPRISED' by the quality of Animation and style.
It was 1995, by then we saw CG being used in animation such as Lion Ling (1992).
I wouldnt blame you for appreciating GITS over AKIRA, animation always improves decades later.
You just have to remember Akira set the ground work for GITS to be GITS and also Akira came out during a time where its type of animation was not expected. Nothing matched it. It was the first. For that it would always be superior and god of animation.
Yeah brought home. Surprised you made that mistake. Good comment though.
This is like the Mona Lisa of animation.
Akira is one of the most legendary classic anime films of all time, like if there was a university course on anime, I feel like this one should definitely be required viewing, lol
I actually heard from a few people that were taking animation that they were shown Akira.
Which is cool to say the least, it’s great to think that the movie of which I am currently hella interested in is basically the Gold standard of animation, to the point where people are taught how to animate through it.
Seriously, this was an excellent recap. There's so much going on in this movie- visually, plot-wise, and with characters, that it's hard to keep a handle on everything even though I've seen it multiple times. This video was like sweeping away the dust to give a clear picture.
I watched this movie over 20 years ago and it still leaves an impression on me to this day. Such a unique and insane perspective on superpowers and emotional stability as a whole
When I first saw “Tetsuo”? (Idk how to spell name) become a grotesque monster I was about 6-8. I thought it was honestly one of the most amazing things that ever existed.
lmao based kid
You spelled his name correctly don’t worry dear
You absolutely like body horror, didn't you?
Tetsuo is so entitled Kanada literally saves him so many times 🙄
Yeah he's a selfish brat
Thats the WHOLE point
Tetsuo don't wanna be saved by kaneda anymore
7:32 “two of them. pulling out the blicky”
Does anyone else think that Kei and Kaneda have powers as well? Tetsuo got powers just because he was blown up by one of the psychics, while Kei was straight up possessed by one of them. And Kaneda was in a giant psychic explosion and he managed to live. And both of them glowed when this happened, Kei glowed green and Kaneda glowed white.
Kei is psychic but kaneda is not. Hence why the little girl is able to possess kei at first and kei was able to (breifly) fight against tetsuo.
Kaneda has the ungodly power of luck
They all have powers, that was the point. They just weren't necessarily 'awakened' to them as the narrator of the vid points out.

Yeah the city was pretty cool the society portrayed in the city is actually pretty shit though as explained by the general to the scientist in the elevator scene it’s almost a bit reminiscent of modern society
I wish I could live in a city like neo Tokyo

I think you missed a word there at the end.
But I agree. He really did a great job recapping the plot.
I wasn't 10 when I first watched this, but some details went past me, specifically the motivations of Kei.
When tetsuo became that giant disgusting flesh I was traumatize for life
this art style was waaaaay ahead of its time i love it so much.
I'm not a zoomer TikTok user who came here from the "LEAVE ME ALONE" memes, just came here to say Akira is genuinely one of my most favorite movies of all time and it has really well-done animation
Finally, I'm sick of the "leave me alone" comments.
I came here because of Kaneda’s bike slide that contributed to many animation shows. Of course, I was curious to know more and ended up here. This film is such a crazy fever dream in a good way.
This channel is a hidden diamond i hope it gets the attention it deserve
nothing can top 90s art style. Wish anime now was drawn like this just imagine aot with this art style 🔥
80's in this case.
Akira is a classic. I love the movie so much I bought a manga box set. It’s a must read.
Akira, leave me alone (bell sounds) a
This movie literally revolutionized animation.
It is also responsible for introducing me to anime, along with Princess Mononoke. But it was Akira that solidified my love for it.
“Great Power comes Great Responsibility.”
Like a lot of westerners Akira was my intro into Japanese anime. I was instantly hooked at about 8 or 9, but as awesome as it is, I will tell anyone the graphic novels are beyond better. When I got my hands on them I was dumbstruck. They are very different like in just the first novel, Tetsuo takes over the rival clown gang just so they can make enough capsules for him to keep his powers in check at the beginning. Highly recommend 👌
Akira, still a legendary anime till this day. Love the atmosphere, setting, everything about Akira.
They don't make anime-film like Akira anymore :(
Is not at the same level maybe, but what do you think about Ghost in the Shell?
It was so labor intensive to animate anything well, back then, that artistry was promoted. A good story, that would likely sell better, if it was more visually appealing, could justify the cost of both more people drawing and coloring, and much more skilled people doing so. Now, TBF, Akira is Kubrick level stuff. But, in general, it's mostly commoditized, today, with a few rare exceptions. Animation software made things quicker and cheaper, and promoted styles and methods that make the animators themselves interchangeable. That allows studios to hire animators cheaper. As a gradual change, it turned the industry into one of high volume output and mediocre quality, by and large.

This is Akira, one of the most influential anime in the anime/cyberpunk community, alot of stuff would be missing in anime/cyberpunk if Akira never came out, this anime was ahead of its time.

I don't have the attention span for shows and movies that much anymore, so things like this are much appreciated :3 I've always been curious as to what Akira is about, very pleased to at least have some knowledge about it.
I finished the video. I must say, that was definitely interesting. I'm a little lost about the ending, I guess the psychic kids and Tetsuo made a different galaxy or died? A little confused.
@@lunasun1738 Akira contained Tetsuo in a new universe where he ascends into a higher plane of existence, the kids are there too, in the manga it's implied that they're technically all dead, it's hard and weird to explain, most of it is up to speculation really
I like this channel...we needed one for anime...I respect that you are doing the oration yourself...I think episodic anime arcs are on the table as well
Akira is the reason why anime community in the West is surprisingly mainstream and not even a niche. It clearly had a strong enough impact that it reintroduced the general population into anime since the Astro Boy back in 1960s, and without Akira the movie, then the rest of anime at large would have been introduced much later in the West and would not have influenced the animation industry for much of 2000s. It's basically the Squid Game of that era.
This reminds me of when Omniman destroyed the orbital cannon
LEAVE ME ALOBE AGH *Inner voice ``Akria`` AAAAAAAGH!!!
I love how he cursed on Kanata while he was holding the rock
I've never seen the anime but holy this definitely convinced me to watch it thank you for being in my recommendation
What happened to Tetsuo is similar to what happened to the Krell in Forbidden Planet: Abrupt tremendous power to ACCOMPLISH, but no idea how to limit it to what you want to accomplish.
I remember stumbling across this movie on tv back when I was about 13. I didn't understand the plot whatsoever, but I was memorized. I owe all my love of anime today to this twisted, bizarre gem of a film.
Thank you for making this video because before this video. I had no idea what the heII I had just watched
To be honest this summary video really help me understand what the movie was about because I can recall when I was younger watching it having no idea what was actually going on and being very confused at the end lol
