Akira is one of the best animes that I have ever seen. The whole film is based in Neo-Tokyo about twenty years into the 21st century. Just before the turn of the 21st century, Neo-Tokyo was destroyed because of a secret weapons experiment gone wrong. Thirty years after the destruction, scientists are trying to unlease the incredible energy of the mind, Akira. A young biker, Tetsuo, is involved in an accident during a gang war, and he is taken to a special laboratory where he is shown the powers of Akira. After growing too powerful, Tetsuo sets out on a rampage causing massive destruction. But one man, Kaneda, Tetsuo's best friend, stands in Tetsuo's way.
