Akira (15) (1988) Bluray

Neo-Tokyo 2019.  Yes.  Akira is now set in the past.

AKIRA

Katsuhiro Otomo's landmark cyberpunk classic obliterated the boundaries of Japanese animation and forced the world to look into the future.

Akira's Arrival shattered traditional thinking, creating space for movies like The Matrix to be dreamed into brutal reality.

Neo-Tokyo, 2019. The City is being rebuilt post World War III when two high school drop outs, Kaneda and Tetsuo stumble across a secret government project to develop a new weapon - telekinetic humans.

After Tetsuo is captured by the military and experimented on, he gains psychic abilities and learns about the existence of the project's most powerful subject, Akira.

Dangerous and destructive, Kaneda must take it upon himself to stop both Tetsuo before things get out of control and the city is destroyed once again.
