Manga or movie?

 No.411643

I saw the movie and it was fucking trash so I'm going to say the manga even though I never read it.

 No.411653

i went in to watch akira thinking it would be about motorcycle racing. it was not about motorcycle racing. big L

Both are good. Movie is more culturally significant but the manga obviously has more space to flesh out its characters, themes and setting

 No.411659

Yeah I kinda wish it stuck to 'neotokyo crime and poverty' and biking, they kinda lost me with the 'every cell has a universe in it' stuff, but it was still good, and the city getting destroyed was kino

The city getting destroyed is arguably THE iconic city destruction scene in movies, period. It's in practically everything now, even Marvel rips that shit off.

The animation is amazing despite the muddled plot.

Just buy some tickets to a motorcycle race

You should watch Neon Genesis Evangelion if you want some cool straightforward mecha action next?

Watched EvanGAYlion for the cool mecha action, got some dude jerking off to a comatose girl’s body instead.

I think the story of the movie is better. More straightforward. Two thirds of the manga is someone carrying an unconcious person to a place. Akira (the kid) is more scary and ominous in the movie, for being dead and not just quiet.

 No.411774

>>411698
The soundtrack is great too

 No.411797

>>411774
the first 10 minutes (the bike chase and the riot) are pure sex visually and in audio IMO (doesn't have all of it and i prefer the modern english dub but whatever DL it yourself)

yeah. Geinoh Yamashirogumi's soundtrack is amazing. I had the Akira soundtrack on an old ipod a decade ago that I would take with me to work

it's actually true of akira. I'm not a weeb and i recognize akira as having a great soundtrack. i get that weebs think that shit like vid related is good, but akira is actually a good film that happens to also be an anime.

Caramelldansen is actually good but it is Swedish.

The animation is beautiful, but it has such dogshit character design. So ugly and same-facey.

Oh fuck off, plenty of 80s/90s anime managed to make their characters visually pretty and distinct.

honestly the side characters in Akira are more distinct than the main characters, which is just bizarre.

>So ugly and same-facey.
Well the designs are meant to be more accurate to Japanese people than most anime so…
