Screw modern art galleries, this is modern art.
Bogmire777 I'm a year late but... you're so right man. Some games i consider to be true modern art as well. not a blue square on a white background...or some womens period blood (I'm guessing that's what passes for modern art nowadays) on canvas. Ironically vaporwave is closer to modern art than anything in a gallery.
yes
agreed
yes
@@The_Order_Of_William_Marshal i couldnt agree more my man....i weep for what modern art has become.
In my opinion, Akira was *THE* authentic animated cyberpunk experience.
Don't forget Fasa Games and Hare Brained Schemes Shadowrun and BladeRunner!!!!!
@@TeAtomicNumber.52 Bladerunner Was a big turning point and akira was just as big just the Japan take on the genre. And god I'm grateful for that
@@niteliniN I agree with you!!! ; )
Also ghost runner it's amazing
Haven't played cyberpunk at all but yea real cyberpunk at it's realest.
To think Akira was hand drawn frame by frame never fails to blow my mind.
Modern Anime: block by block
its not that hard
@@Suzuha_AmaneIt actually is that hard. A lot of anime from this era was hand-drawn, frame by frame. And that's also including the backgrounds and assets needed.
It's easier to replicate this style today, but back then, it was **HARD.**
@@Suzuha_Amane then, why don't you try do an animation by traditional hand-drawn frame by frame for all the episodes without cheating with digital and 3D CGI
@@Suzuha_Amane if hand-drawn is so easy, then, the anime industry would have not resorted to digital and 3D CGI
I think we feel attracted to the past and the 80/90's because back then they were so fascinated by the future. We look back on that young, naive world because we see the speculation in their eyes, the fascination for sheer possibility, and we wonder if things really could have turned out different.
up you go
+1
There is still hope ....
lol. as someone who grew up in the 80s/90s, I can assure you we were no more fascinated by the future than any other generation. Escapism, through cinema in particular, is a long standing American tradition.
And if you think we were naive in the 80s and 90s, during the height of the cold war, then I'd suggest you read a little bit more about those times.
"90's, during the height of the cold war"

Bring back animation like this, I feel like id actually enjoy it.
just watch ghost in the shell
Which ones would you recommend? I watched Akira and Ghost in the Shell.
Sadly, a project of this size is unlikely the future. Akira is well remembered now, but in it's time it was an expensive flop. You also remember that Akira was a HUGE project in its day. If you pay attention to the credits, they must have had half the animation studios in Japan doing in-between work at one point or another.
Anyone know where I might be able to find some online?
R E D L I N E
To anyone who has never done any work pictorial art yet is still criticising this masterpiece: check ALL the frames. Every single frame is an absurdly complex picture to draw on its own. Look at the angles, the cut, the perspective. Can you imagine yourself animating that with the same amount of fluidity, making characters feel almost like they have a physical weight and shape?
Like a good pair of boobs
The only animated part is the characters and cars and such, usually the backgrounds are beautiful art that sets as backdrop, there will be lights moving or something in the distance to make it seem like it's not a drawing.
SwaffyX I admire it so much that I cried though
Ignorant people live in a world of lies
Work like this takes multiple teams of animators and cinematographers and lighting directors. The amount of work the put into anime in the past rivals the efforts done my major blockbuster Hollywood hits.
All in the name of attention to detail. This is why anime is so deep, and dirty. ;)
I am a simple man. I see Akira, I click like
+MegaMac464 Me too.:P Absolute classic and one of the best there is.
Exactly what I did.
yes!
facts
youre an awesome buddy, like all that hit like
Neo Tokyo: the city I don't want to live in but want to visit.
You can visit Hong Kong.
One of the most important artistic insights we can get from Akita’s world building is it depicts a world without the internet
Golden age of anime welly equipped with golden age of music.
Early 2010s synthwave is certainly the golden age of music.
The beginning always gets me, the sight of Neo Tokyo in the flesh is absolutely ripping.
this is amazing
Your Channel is amazing too!
+sshdka 33 ur damm right
When Vaporwave meets Synthwave.
when senpai enters the room
Your the best channel
Wow... to think I started my journey into Retro Wave with this song more than a year ago... After that it only got wilder and louder, Perturbator, Lazerkawk, Miami Nights, Burgeoisie, Power Glove, Lost Years, Mega Drive, Trevor Something, Carpenter Brut, M.O.O.N., LIFELIKE, Dynatron, Kavinsky, Droid Bishop, Electric Youth, Le Matos, STARFORCE, DANCE WITH THE DEAD, Protector 101, Tokyo Rose, Quixotic... and I'm sure I'm forgetting A LOT. If anyone is listening to this song/genre for the first time check out all these artists, they're all awesome.
Will do.
Replying to save
And for any of you old school fans be sure to check the grand pappy's of synth like tangerine dream and john Carpenter
You should try the midnight my favorite song is sunset
I hope eventually it'll be the thing to take out the whole EDM scene LOL. It's gone waaaaay too mainstream now a bit.
amazing how "akira" still look very good in 2016!
Because it was before computers created anime
It will continue to look good.
Yeah, I hoped the world would eventually catch up and realize how awful CG looks in movies/anime but now its the end of 2016 and its still all over the goddamn place
panzerdiv
Japan is the last bastion of quality two-dimensional animation.
+Hugh G. Rekshun
Well made CG in movies looks like a part of the movie and you will not notice it. But bad CG is outstandish and unnatural, thus awful. Also, well made CG in anime can be very good. It is making production easier and making it cheaper to animate... God just if they spent those saved money to hire skilled writers and make some mindblowing plot and setting...
akiras animation is insane , amazing quality and detailing. I love the aesthetic.
Wish it were still a thing today
@@justauser9082 And wish cyberpunk was still prevalent instead of all the isekai and slice of life crap.
One thing Batman series, and the movie The Warriors taught me?
There is always a Clown themed street gang.
ikr
Pretty much ICP lol
Juggalos
Warriors come out and plaayay
CAN YOU DIG IT?!!!
Im in the cool part of youtube now. Awesome!
lol
Aren't we the lucky ones!
damn right you are
Hehe good shyt
Perfect use of Akira for this song.
And this song is perfect.
I have been listening to it nonstop for the past week.
.

Help me.
+Supreme Iron
Just came back after a while, and I still love this video. The song fits and the whole editing of clips together for the music video just works wonders.
I’m going to be honest, this video got me into anime. Opened the door to the world of insane retro anime
Akira is a absolute masterpiece! add a flashworx and becomes heavenly .
i went on a high speed bike ride in down town tokyo, nearby Shibuya... pretty epic time
+Joel Parizi I am so envious!!!
+Joel Parizi did you gain psychic powers and destroy the city?
I thought the max speed limit allowed was pretty low in japan.
+EggiTheShadow YAES BUT WHO CARES?
Ni jQ Your wallet does :/
I swear I will become rich, so that someone can finance a production like Akira again. Without CGI, without the same story you tend to get in anime nowadays... just a good film.
Do it! Do it! Do it!
I drove through the desert listening to this. I picture myself in this are. I also picture the song Night begins to shine by Teen Titans.
I want a anime of Blade Runner in this style.
One of the best retrowave tracks ever, that's for sure 🌌
Now I remember why I love Akira so much. It's a masterpiece!
I fell that 80s90s spirit is to have hope for the future, to have a open mind for the possibility’s life has. I Believe to have the 80s spirit is to remember what those books and media from that time stood more, adventure, love, family, world peace, freedom of speech mind and creativity, standing up to bullies form school to he dictators and elites who rule over people using fear and a class system to stop real good change. ❤️ love you all.
I can remember listening to this song in a shed in 2017 and it absolutely taking over my music taste as I madly scrambled to get my PhD done. Coming back to it takes me back to some of my tumultuous twenties and the agony of grad student life in all its messy forms.
Never would have discovered Akira if it wasn’t for this. Thank you.
It is incredible how much 1980s sci fi sounds and looks like 2015.
I always avoided this movie thinking its some anime crap, but it looks amazing, gonna check it out tomorrow.
we're gonna make anime great again.
XmXFLUXmX2 trump supporters will make anime great again #maga
1:00 to 2:00 is amazing musical textures.
TETSUOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

CANADAAAAAA!!!

SNAAAAAAAAAKE
WEEEABOOOOOOOO
Akira
starwolffan13 bi
The genius of this genre is it’s an improvement on the music of the 80’d while staying 100% faithful to the aesthetics
I listen to this almost everyday at work at least once or twice during the day. It helps me remotivate, and sends chills down my spine, the music, the sync with the Akira visuals, it's just... wow !
THIS ENTIRE THING IS FUCKING INCREDIBLE
about 2 years after i discovered this genre, and i still haven't found a more representative archetype for the whole new wave thing. utter perfection.
not to hate on the soundtrack of Akira, but it wouldve been dope to have synth stuff like this in the actual movie. Wouldve gone so well with neo tokyo
beefdawgamadeus Each scene is hand drawn by real people. today it would cost way to much money to do animation like this without some sort of computer assistance involved.
thelasthallow Since when did he mention about animation?
Bryan Tee well fuck? i think i may have made this post on the wrong video? i remember commenting on someone for saying "why cant they get this sort of animation detail today" but it appears to be gone.
thelasthallow lol
beefdawgamadeus Well, I disagree. This track is rather unfitting. And the OSTs of Akira are breath taking.
lvl of aesthetics in every frame of this movie is just mind numbing, just look at trail left by rear lights for example, its perfection in art form. This movie was truly ahead of its time.
The last music of the EP is such a perfect intro for this music
Anyone else listening to this in 2021? This still rocks
Yeah
love that bikers gang battle in that movie, it was really inspired by the mods vs. rockers fights in the 60's
made me want to watch Akira again.
Honestly Akria And Synthwave is Something special. We need a epic Akria Synthwave Tribute album.
I like your choice for footage. Akira is one of the most beautiful anime movies I have ever seen and will probably hold up for many years after I say this
2years later and still is👍
There is nothing else that I want to do as much when I hear this music, as to just take my bike and go for an all night long ride, listening to this. Has to be my #1.
Finally again on RUclips TY!!!
The anime is akira for all you new anime fans and it’s better than anything else you’ve seen
Akira That movie still freaks me out
Skull knight I know that feel
The Manga isn't as pretty, but it's just as trippy
The Manga isn't as pretty, but it's just as trippy
Oh but it is pretty, the art is incredibly detailed and the motion jumps off the page.
Where Puppers Go to Die I was debating on buying AKIRA because volumes 2-6 are being sold at an Indigo near me
Akria always goes good with 80s beat music
I swear to god, the edit of Akira makes this at least ten times more enchanting, when I'm just listening to it on my phone it's pretty average sounding but with this edit it gives me shivers.
HOLY SHIT, is it really back? I thought this video was taken down due to some copyright garbage but then it just popped back into my recommendations out of nowhere. Praying that it stays up forever 🙏, it's a masterpiece, I was legit depressed that it'd be gone forever.
I was legit shocked too when I saw it pop back up
Same, same. This was the one video that popped up in my recs and led me down the synthwave rabbit hole.
@@wageslave387best rabbit hole I ever went down.

akira is shite
***** IT'S SHITE AND YOU KNOW IT!
***** Nah I'm just kidding I've never seen it lol
The part @ 1:00 is so genius it really sounds like we’re tuning into some kind of signal from an outer space colony. It really trips me out every damn time 🤯
Goddamn that was a journey.
I used to listen to this all the time but forgot the name. As you can imagine searching "Akira vaporwave" did not exactly narrow it down. Glad to be back again!
Really puts that cyberpunk feels to it.
This is amazing I love the music and colorful city
This was a fantastic track, I need more!!
Also near-future setting is so much better than distant future.How I wish I lived in such a world (without all the mutants of course...nah it wouldn't be the same).I want to live in a city with rain slick streets bathed in neon light.
The best syntwave I've ever discovered, hard to believe 2011 was so long ago
Here we are 12 years later and synthwave is still not out of fashion. Unlike Dubstep. Remember?
A nostalgic video, a nostalgic songs and a nostalgic anime. always coming back to listen to this.
Good for health,Bad for education
Oiyyrre se se
5:35 starts the best part
5:57 slow motion
6:02 priceless ending image
6:15 fucking nostalgia
I have this as steam background lol
idk why it was removed in the first place. But iam very happy to see this video up again✨
Loving. This. Track. More. Everyday. Been in my rotation for almost 3 years now.
Akira, Neo Genesis Evangelion and Ghost in the Shell are some of the best Cyberpunk pieces of animation to be found, amazing imagenry, btw nice mix ^-^
I cant adequately describe how much I love this edit. Thank you for this, Lars. This is the soundtrack to my life from 2015-2019, smashing the Beijing midnight city streets on a CBR600rr. What a ride.
People keep talking about the visuals, but that song is awesome.
1:07 god i love these radio hizzling samples
I listen to this every night before I sleep - it takes me back to Akira
The 80's and early 90's Japanese cartoon's inspired many Hollywwod directors and screenwriters. Careful and conscious viewers immediately realize this.
I can never find such clean HD rips of this movie my god it looks so crisp and clean in 720 upscaled
今こんだけのアニメ作れる制作会社無いだろ
CGなんか殆ど使わず手描きセルアニメでこれだけ動かせるって、一体どれだけの情熱(と予算)で取り組まれたのか
別にCGを悪いとは言わない…っつーかCGや3Dの方が効果的な演出も有るが、セルアニメでそれらに引けを取らない出来に仕上げるって凄い事やと思うよ
私はSWも1stシリーズ原理主義者なので、こういう制作サイドの情熱溢れる素晴らしい仕事に感銘を受けるわけであります
bad ass track! Akira was alright...the fallout from that 160+ MPH motorcycle accident should have been way worse...I know..I know.. its a cartoon! lol im so high right now.. peace yall
Thank you for informing us, the good people of the internet, that you are intoxicated and feeling jolly good.
You are quite welcome my friend
It's KPH, not MPH. They're going a lot slower than you think they are. That's not to say that all of the crashes shouldn't have been a lot worse than they were, though.
It's 160 km/h But you're still right !
TitanOfDestruction The guy was high when he wrote it bro XD
I keep coming back to this song and video all the time, it has been months now and I cannot stop listening to it while working. It makes my whole body and mind shake with intensity. Congratulations for this masterpiece
A E S T H E T I C < 3
this song is still good as hell, even in 2021
Forever.
10/10 best synthwave
KANEDAAAAAAA!!
+Alessandro La Via TETSUOOOOOO!!
+Alessandro La Via NARUT.... ough...
That's mr. Kaneda for you punk!!!
i don't know what the fuck this movie is but i have to see it right now.
joh joh pls watch it,
its a fantastic movie please do watch it
By the way, the film is set in 2019. So for all of you still reading this in 2019...
The world didn’t turn out as dark as the people in the 80s envisioned it.
Edit: Nevermind. Dystopia is here now.
Lol when did you make the edit?
@@zs9652 after corona
Well, real life isn't quite like the distopia that is neo tokyo, but ngl it kinda feels like we're heading that way.
I'm from the future and yes, Dystopia has arrived and it isn't as cool as it is in Akira.
Just Amazing! Take's your ears...eyes...and thoughts on an adventure!!!
awesome music with an epic backdrop of akira? can't get any better! the music totally suits the background footage
Nothing is better than to drive in downtown at night while this music is on
Cries in Covid restrictions
this and the Bourgeoisie ,The Alphabet City Elite are such classics...
I've been listening this track all day. Can't get enough!
If only the intro lasted longer, because it sounds amazing.
Akira was just ahead of it's time
This has to be one of the best pieces I’ve heard in my 18 years of life. Truly. Provides inspiration like no other.
If, and I mean IF they remake this movie, they should style it the same way they did in this film. Only they would make three part covering the FULL story of the manga. It's freaking genius.
that'd be nifty
Yea, I saw the movie first then read the books, the books's
story makes way more sense and is overall amazing, and complete!
Jon Geist there was a live action hollywood-esque adaptation on the plans, i don't remember how many years ago but it never came up to be anything but plans (and i'm glad)
Anyone would be a fool to try and remake something this expensive and unique and hope that the remake would garner a profit. I really doubt there will ever be one. An entirely new miniseries based on the manga would be better because it would be less directly comparable/competing with the original film.
maybe weird feeling and feel of emptyness if i imagine live in cyberpunk makes me crazy bout cyberpunk. Blade runner and akira movies are in my vein since my childhood.. you should go to Kowloon city or Hongkong to listen this music. its got the feels..
80's and 90"s. Best decades to animes and cartoons. That is awesome. Let's get the third part of it.
love the streets of rage at the end
Great video editing of an excellent movie with magnificent music. Thanks.
The animation is glorious. :o
***** At time i thought it was a guy in a costume. Really, really great. :)
AKIRAのこの辺のシーン本当に好きなんだよなあ
I really like scenes of the bikes and the city. AKIRA is extraordinary.
This is, without a doubt the best use of the movie as a music video I've seen. It fits really well together. Props to Lars.
Neo-Tokyo 2019. A future world envisioned by the past, has now reached the present.
i wish this track would be on spotify
Been waiting and waiting!
And waiting xd
Still waiting
brooooo every single frame is MAD AESTHETIC.
6 years ago... this was uploaded; definitely ahead of its time.
