Synopsis

/// Em 1988 houve uma uma grande explosão nuclear que destruiu a capital japonesa. A cidade foi reconstruída e batizada e em 2019 ela é chamada de Neo Tokyo. Kaneda e Tetsuo são amigos que integram uma gangue de motoqueiros e disputam o domínio das ruas com uma gangue rival, a dos Palhaços. Durante um acidente Tetsuo tem contato com uma criança com estranhos poderes. Ele é então levado por pessoas do exército e passa a desenvolver poderes inimagináveis, sendo comparado ao lendário “Akira”. Será Kaneda capaz de decifrar o enigma por trás das cobaias controladas pelo exército?

/// In the year 2019, thirty-one years have passed since the outbreak of World War III. In Neo-Tokyo, all authority is waging a never-ending struggle against the underground that virtually rules the shattered city. A top-secret child with amazing powers of the minds breaks free from custody and accidentally gets a motorcycle gang involved in the project. The incident triggers psychic powers within one of the members, Tetsuo, and he is taken by the army and experimented on. His mind has been warped and is now on the path of war, exacting revenge on the society that once called him weak.
