Indeed, the whole of Akira is great, the movie and manga. I must of seen the anime 20 or so times since the beginning of the year. I even bought the special addition DVD just to get the better dub and extras. It ticks me off to find people critisizing the anime for its story, the original dub was pretty bad, but the new one is spot on. Or just watch the subtitled version which is good. Its a shame the anime cut alot of sections from the manga, but I guess it was hard enough to get the manga in a 2 hour film.

Your seriously missing out not reading the manga. I love the movie but much prefer the manga. You can download it off a torrent site. But I recommend you buy the actual books, which you can find on ebay.
