A review by ipacho
Akira 35th Anniversary Box Set by Katsuhiro Otomo

5.0

6 Stars. Akira changed my life in the 90's, when I saw the anime. Now that my beautiful wife gave to me the collected mangas, I went back to that idolized cyberpunk opera with a complete new eyes (grown, weary, skeptical), and was amazed like 25 years before. This is a major point in illustration history, in sci-fi, in animation, in almost every conceivable way. I now think that I've come full-circle with this epic tale, and I think it has a major place in our modern mythology.
