Akira is one of Japan's most well known and loved anime. Originally released in 1988, Akira still holds it's own in its design, illustration, music compositions and rich story line.
All of the characters go through significant development as the story progresses. The story is also developed enough to carry significant symbolism that are common amongst great literary works but not as common in anime.
The conflicts in Akira are large and affect the characters personally as well as their world. Every aspect of the story is relevant and well thought out. It allows the viewers to enter Akira's world with ease but also allows for them to think of the presented ideas in the context of their own life.
It's easy to see why Akira is considered a hallmark of Japanese Anime. I give Akira 5 stars out of 5.
