AKIRA - Original Japanese Theatrical Trailer #1

Back


This is the original Japanese theatrical trailer of the 1988 anime movie Akira based on the manga of the same name by Katsuhiro Otomo. I ripped this from the Akira Special Edition DVD on the Extras Disc. I love this movie. The first time I saw it as a kid, it scared the hell out of me. I highly recommend this film to all movie buffs - please watch in original Japanese dub with English subtitles - SAY NO TO ENGLISH DUBS! Enjoy.

I love the akira manga, took me so very long to read but it's a great story, much much better than the film.

It WAS long but you get this great level of relief when you get to the end. I prefer the ending of the manga cos it made you feel complete compared to the way the movie ended. I also think the manga had more heart and was less violent than the movie.

i loved the ending in the manga, felt more complete. As great as the film was, seeing Akira bottled up was odd.

This movie is simply a master piece of anime. I saw this movie for the first time in junior high back in 1991. I saw it in Japanese without subtitles. But even without the subtitles, Akira is the kind of movie that just grabs you and doesnt let you go. Its like being hypnotize.

AKIRA was for me the best manga, ive collected load over the years but this always seemed far more imaginative and ahead of its time. Katsuhiro Otomo knew how to weave an epic story and ill always appreciate this work of art. I hear they will be making a live action film in Hollywood... i just know they will fuck it all up. Its a shame, as some people will never realise the greatness of the original work.
