[BatDan]

And there's Akira's only real scene in the movie.

 

[Ultratech]

There goes fetus Tetsuo...

Watching Kaori died disturbed me when I first watched this

Yeah, I had nightmares about that for a good 2-3 days watching it the first time.

Not cool at all.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

This makes me happy.
No one deserves to die like that.

Not to spoil much but

Spoiler

it's perfect example of playing god sucks.

 

[B-Dubs]

Looks like Tetsuo got beat

Kaneda's a true bro

[Seda]

[Schadenfreude]

[Shard]

If you want to see more of the titular Akira, you may want to read that manga.

 

[SousedLouse]

Army guy is getting off so lightly, it's ridiculous.

 

[ramoisdead]

Takashi...what a noble little dude.

 

[BassForever]

Tetsuo : 57.2

Kaneda : 39

And everyone died

THE END

 

[Moaradin]

Definitely reading the manga after this. Never got around to it despite this movie being my favorite anime film of all time.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Lube up your brains, you're about to get mindfucked

I like it rough.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Okay, their similarity is really starting to confuse me. She really looked like Kaneda.

 

[BatDan]

Japan getting re-nuked

 

[Mr. Smiley]

In my heart of hearts,
I know that I could never love again
I've lost everything
everything, everything
that matters to me,
matters in this woooooooorld

 

[foxuzamaki]

Definitely reading the manga after this. Never got around to it despite this movie being my favorite anime film of all time.

Same.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

Incoming flashback.

 

[lazybones18]

flashback time

 

[ezekial45]

I just want to say that if you enjoyed the movie, then I HIGHLY recommend the manga. Even though the movie is great, it's still a heavily condensed version of the source material. Many of the side characters seen in the film, like the rival gang in the beginning, are actually fully developed characters in the books. I'd say that the movie covers about 1/4 of the manga's content.

It's really excellent. Check them out.

[Azure J]

So this is The Third Impact, Seventh Swell, Father's summoning of the Earth's gate, Paradigm City's Memories and all that good stuff put together huh?

 

[Jintor]

Motherfucking instrumentality, yo

 

[Shard]

Yea, I think at this point is the end of Volume 2 of the Akira manga.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

It's those three kids!

 

[BassForever]

Oh hey it's those kids before they became old psychic freaks

 

[Baroquemantic]

Definitely reading the manga after this. Never got around to it despite this movie being my favorite anime film of all time.

Yeah me too. Especially since there's so much that's in the manga that's not shown in the movie.

 

[heliosRAzi]

So this is The Third Impact, Seventh Swell, Father's summoning of the Earth's gate, Paradigm City's Memories and all that good stuff put together huh?

Yes and it may have inspired all of those

 

[Amikami]

I actually can not remember the conclusion of this movie.

 

[Jintor]

[BassForever]

Tetsuo : 61.2

Kaneda : 39

[Shard]

Things got a little 2001 here in this film.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Beautiful silence.

[B-Dubs]

Everyone dies

 

[Imperial Bishop]

So this is The Third Impact, Seventh Swell, Father's summoning of the Earth's gate, Paradigm City's Memories and all that good stuff put together huh?

We probably wouldn't have any of those without Akira and these scenes
