Just watched akira. Why does everyone think this is a good anime?

Really good animation, good setting, interesting concept, etc.

What didn't you like?

Testuo's latent psychic powers not really explained, the ending gave no sort of resolution to anything. Honestly it would be more fun to watch kaneda's bike gang adventures rather than tetsuo going super sayan.

The movie is remembered for its animation quality

If you want a coherent story read the manga.

It's an incomplete adaptation, the movie is mostly liked because of the fluid animation.

Basically this.

Like the other two posts have said, the manga better completes the story.

Because it is. Though as far as Otomo's animated work goes I prefer Stop Construction Order, Cannon Fodder, and Hi no Youjin to Akira

I always took his psychic powers as a metaphor for his pent up frustration.

The manga is too long

Mostly it's just a classic. Have it legally

The overblown budget for this movie almost ruined the anime industry (google it).

Memories and Robot Carnival is better.

Please lurk for two years before posting.

If you want a story that makes sense, read the manga.
