Can't really complain...

zherok:
I think Akira can be done better than the original movie. The manga isn't the longest, but the latter portion could be better represented, a lot of it's missing. Whether an American two-part live action movie would do it... I have my doubts.

I really feel there is no love loss with Akira.  I liked the anime all good and well, I just don't think i would really be intrested in the Live action.
