Akira review

Akira is a rush from beginning to end with a compelling story and outstanding art. Any fans of the movie adaptation or fans of science fiction should definitely read this manga. Without spoiling anything, I have to say that the manga story line is explained in much more detail and while the movie itself is amazing, the manga somehow manages to surpass it in terms of story telling. The artwork in this is very good, especially when the action picks up and there are just a ton of different explosions going on or even the amazingly drawn backgrounds of the city with the motor bikes are just pure science fiction porn. The characters though are not really inspiring and to me, when someone says "Akira", my first few thoughts go more to how the characters are physically portrayed instead of their actual personality. There is development with their character, but in the end, it's the overall story and art work that makes this such a masterpiece.
