Why are normalfags obsessed with this? I thought it was shit.
I guess I'm just too patrician for it.

Because it's based and animated well. It's not some stupid move garbage, but an actually well made cyberpunk film.

>actual quality
>good backgrounds
>plot is okay
It's really good movie.
You are not patrician, you are just another contrarian.

Is the remake still happening?

God forbid a studio and director tries to do something unique that doesn't pander to otaku and moe scum

C'mon, you've got to appreciate it at the very least on a technical level, this is like objectively the most well animated movie ever made

enjoy your vacation :)

^this, don't be a moron OP
It's a great and popular movie that's why normalfags like it. If it's popular doesn't mean it's bad, and Akira deserves all of its popularity

The movie butchered the manga

I always liked how when Kaneda is in the flashback of the memory of life and power the others refer to him as a valued friend too. In all the conflict where nearly everyone around him is an esper or a government agent with a superweapon, the mundane Kaneda is included among their ranks by those greater beings.

Patrician my ass, youre just not interested user.

Because they're NPCs mindlessly regurgitating 40 years old memes (in the actual meaning of the word). Akira was shown in the theaters to the 80s burger audience that was used to the idea that cartoons = Tom & Jerry and shit, and a "mature" animated feature film exploded their mind. Plus it's the kind of violent action shlock that was all the rage in the Holywood at the time. Since then NPCs just keep parroting how original this film is.

Is the movie any good? It's a higly regarded series so I've read it and it was shit. Especially the pre-empire part.

Source`?

You can't do the same stuff in a movie as you can do with a 8 year manga run.

Normalfags have not watched Akira

Stop shitting on Akira when Ghost in The Shell exists you autistic fuckers

Modern anime sucks, there i said it.

you are the only normalfag who's obsessed with Akira

>t. boomer

Just watched it four days ago. The plot is absolutely absent until the last 20 to 15 minutes or so. Character design is very dull and uninspired. There were times were characters talking and I didn't know who was who. Same face syndrome at its purest. Clothing, vehicles, setting and overall animation was fantastic. I liked the music a lot too. 7/10.

Characters felt very lousy and angry all of the time as if their asses were burning throughout the entire movie. Loved the violence however much of it felt nonsensical. Explosions everywhere you look. Good enough for me to motivate me and read the manga. I'm hoping an improvement story wise.

Other than that the movie was okay.

You just don’t have good taste

too cool for school.

they aren't

It's good stuff, there's a lot there. Narrativley it does feel a bit rushed for obvious reasons, and the first time watching it especially it's a bit all over the place, but everything else about it is genuinley pretty good.
