This anime has been widely regarded as the anime that brought interest in adult anime to America. Even though this movie originally came out in 1988 the animation quality is brilliant! For some decades Japanese animation had seemed to be trailing behind it's American counter parts, however when this movie came out, every could see that Japanese anime had just jumped up some noticeable notches. The animation effects are stunning. I don't want to give too much away but closer to the end there are mutation scenes which are astonishing to behold, and the way the way different powers are animated is perfect. Also, it's not just the animation, but the story is great! It is a movie based on the graphic novel by the same name from author Katsuhiro Otomo (who also directed the movie). The graphic novel is widely considered to be a master piece in itself. The graphic novel is deep and rich with elements of the post apocalyptic, sci fi and political strife. This movie will truly be a masterpiece for all times and even those who aren't really into the more popular animes today will tell you that this movie is just that, a masterpiece.Lire l'avis complet
Akira is a fascinating sci-fi/anime classic. In many people's as well as my own opinion it is the best animated movie. With a compelling story of a world set in a post World War 3 Tokyo, biker gang members stumble across a government experiment. After they come across this experiment, it all goes wrong, leading to a final confrontation that will mean sacrifice, respect, and honor. If you like '80s-'90s anime or films like Armitage III, Barefoot Gen, and/or Jin Roh, this film is for you.
Thank you for the awesome deal

Metal case came in a thin paper envelope only. No padding. Came with a hole in the envelope and the corner scratched. Side also dented from lack of padding. Disc are very good, collectors case is not.
