I love Akira. I have loved Akira since around 1993 when it was aired in the UK late one night. Since then I have been an avid collector of memorabilia and I created the website Akira2019.com

I made this channel to try collect together some interesting Akira (アキラ) and Katsuhiro Otomo videos.

The Manga was adapted into an Animated film which was released in 1988, written and directed by original comic creator, Katsuhiro Otomo himself. This Anime is heralded as one of the greatest works in Animation.
