The Masterpiece Returns!
In 1988, the landmark Anime film Akira, by director Katsuhiro Otomo, defined the cutting edge of
Anime around the world. By today's standards, Akira remains a landmark achievement in cel
animation and retains the explosive impact of its highly detailed animation and its intensely violent
saga of power and corruption. Pioneer Entertainment proudly presents this classic film, completely

Childhood friends Tetsuo and Kaneda's motorcycle gang encounters a military operation to retrieve an
escaped experimental subject. The military captures Tetsuo and conducts experiments on him that
