"The Best Anime Feature FIlm of All Time. Not Kidding."
5 stars"

Akira is the story of Shotaro Kaneda and Tetsuo Shima, two motorcycle gang members living in the city of Neo Tokyo. Its a tale of friendship and solitude, love and hatred, bravery and cowardice. With an Incredibly high standard of animation, and some of the best action direction in movies, as well as a gripping story and an epic musical score Akira is truly a classic of the genre, in fact a classic of all genres.

"Great product and great customer service"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great product and professional service. Awesome movie, a much see for any anime fan. The dvd arrived a day after I ordered it. One thing that made me happy was that I had a $10 voucher, with the condition that the purchase was over $20. This dvd at the time was approx. $18.99, but the voucher still worked as it deducted the $10 from the total purchase amount, which included postage (which came to just over $20 all up). This ment I was able to use my voucher to buy the dvd I wanted to without the issue of one dollar or so getting in the way (which is what I would expect from most companies). Great customer service mighty ape, you make us feel important, keep up the good work! :D :D

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Almost 30 years on and still rivaling anime production of today, Akira remains without a doubt the best example of Japanese Cyberpunk.
