Akira
Akira is everything I've ever wanted to say in art, film, evolution, humanity and metafiction ever. A simulation of senses and sci fi religion. Never done like this before. Impressed to my very core. Life defining. My worst fears and daydreams actualised in pure human terror. Universal understanding the collapse of a multi generational power. A high school set suave pulpy world. I've never been this moved by a complete capture of the senes of understanding reality, justifying life, cinema. One of the best films I have ever seen. Ever. Akira is megalon, the reason for living put on screen.
Like God touching jesus a mortal the screen is a window into a reality of brain expanding bliss. It's everything. A communist think piece on control, over our minds, worlds and memory. A signal of warning that is the current reality. Layers upon layers. Fantastical dune future dystopia. The particle explosion reality becoming aware of its own creation is earth shattering. Amazing for its time in animation. A film I can't stop thinking about.
