Winner of two 2018 Eisner Awards! Reprinted and available again for a limited time! An all-new, complete 35th anniversary hardcover box set of one of the most acclaimed and influential comics of all time, with the original Japanese art and right-to-left reading format for the first time! The science fiction epic that changed anime and manga forever is presented in six beautiful hardcover volumes, plus the hardcover Akira Club art book and an exclusive patch with the iconic pill design. In 1982, Kodansha published the first chapter of Akira, a dystopian saga set in Neo-Tokyo, a city recovering from thermonuclear attack where the streets have been ceded to motorcycle gangs and the rich and powerful run dangerous experiments on destructive, supernatural powers that they cannot control. In 1988, the manga was adapted into what was at the time the most expensive animated film ever made, which brought Akira's influence out of the manga world and onto the global stage. Today, it remains a touchstone for artists, writers, filmmakers, and fans, retaining all the brutal impact and narrative intensity it had when Otomo first unleashed it onto the world.

Best cyberpunk manga ever
I was very excited when kodansha comics released a 35th anniversary Box set for this manga,I was waiting for the right time and pulled the trigger.As far as the manga is concerned it takes place in Neo-Tokyo in the year AD 2019 this manga being released in 1982 gives an overview of what Katsuhiro Otomo thought would be our future.One of the best manga which has impacted many things until now this was clearly depicted in the Akira club Hardcover.All in all a must read not only for manga fans but for everyone interested in reading a cult classic that started it all.

Pricy but a good story
I understand why some people are raving fans of Akira. It is dynamic. Akira is about a bit creepy kid and the future of Japan rests with him.

It’s so peak I’m speechless
It feels like an ancient runic you accidentally stumble upon and feel unworthy to even touch it because of it’s overwhelming beauty. I had to sell a kidney to buy it but I think it’s worth it cause if THIS isn’t peak I don’t know what is.
