Akira Reaction, Recap, Commentary, & Spoiler Review w/ John Humphrey & Andrew Gordon from Cinepals! John Humphrey & Andrew Gordon dive into the groundbreaking anime classic Akira! Directed by Katsuhiro Otomo (Steamboy, Memories), Akira revolutionized the world of animation with its stunning visuals, intense cyberpunk narrative, and philosophical themes. This 1988 masterpiece, set in a dystopian Neo-Tokyo, explores the bond between childhood friends Kaneda and Tetsuo as they navigate psychic powers, government conspiracies, and societal collapse. Starring Mitsuo Iwata (Kaneda), Nozomu Sasaki (Tetsuo), Mami Koyama (Kei), Taro Ishida (Colonel Shikishima), and Tesshō Genda (Ryu), Akira has influenced countless modern works, from The Matrix to Stranger Things. John & Andrew react to Akira’s most iconic moments, including the jaw-dropping bike chase, Tetsuo’s terrifying transformation, Kaneda’s confrontation with his friend, and the unforgettable final scene. Whether you’re a die-hard anime fan or new to the genre, this is a reaction you don’t want to miss!
