First released in 1988, Akira is now regarded not only as an anime cult classic, but as a classic film in its own right
Akira is set in a future neo-Tokyo filled with revolutionaries, terrorists and warring government factions, where a young man becomes the subject of experiments to create a super-being
The re-release of Akira coincides with Manga's 10th anniversary celebrations, which will culminate with the screening of this digitally re-mastered version of the film at ten venues across the UK
Both discs in this set carry special features, which include a Making Of Akira feature, photo gallery, weblinks, a quiz and other, hidden, features
