Deluxe DVD-(Spoken Languages: English, Japanese,
English subtitles.)Finally! A new English translation of the
original Japanese AKIRA script!
Neo-Tokyo has risen from the
ashes of World War III to become a dark and dangerous megalopolis
infested with gangs and terrorists. The government seethes with
corruption and only maintains a token control over the powerful
military that prevents total chaos and hides the secrets of the
past.
Childhood friends Tetsuo and
Kaneda plunge into Neo-Tokyo's darkest secret when their motorcycle
gang encounters a military operation to retrieve an escaped experimental
subject. Tetsuo, captured by the military, is subjected to experiments
that make him a powerful psychic, but, unfortunately for Neo-Tokyo,
Tetsuo's powers rage out of control and he lashes out at the
world that has oppressed him! Nothing can stop the destructive
forces that Tetsuo wields except possibly the last boy to destroy
Tokyo - AKIRA!
