A look back at the golden age of anime where you can find some anime that didn't look so weird. Akira is one of the many anime which inspired movies or other stories such as The Matrix. It's reminds you some of the classic movies like all of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey and A Clockwork Orange.

The background is almost identical to Ridley Scott's Blade Runner. An anime that is at the top level, before otaku culture rules an anime. The animation, the action, the gore, the symbolism, all combined into one by the legendary Katsuhiro Otomo.
