No.

The sound track is the best soundtrack of all time.

hardly. for half of the action scenes THERE WAS NO SOUNDTRACK! i was shocked that they left most of the big scenes with no music at all. Perfect Blue is a movie with one of the greatest soundtracks of all time, not Akira

it's a snorefest...and you have no comeback to me saying "where was the music for half the movie?" that's what made Akira an 8 and Perfect Blue a 10. Akiras scenes didn't hit coz they didn't have music!

It is fucking trash, and yes obviously you are suppose to review things based on the time period but even back then it was just fucking flashy garbage with good animation. Junk with good animation is still junk but a lot of the plebs on this website think otherwise. Kimi no na wa for example is terrible but it has good animation so its a top 10.
@Dhaarok Why would you rate something based on time period? Enough things back then hold up better than most modern thing where you shouldn't have to do that. I don't really understand that mindset. That being said, I think Akira is fantastic.

Came here just to see if anyone else felt the same way. That kinda sucked lol I just finished watching it and I'm not really sure I got any of that. The whole plot just feels like a mess. And while yes the animation can be good at times, I didn't really like it most of the time. Idk it just feels a bit overhyped. Like I was expecting a more, but it was a bit of a disappointment. Like yeah I get that it came out in the 80s when there really wasn't anything like this, but that doesn't really make me appreciate it more. I just didn't like this movie :(

An 8 feels generous imo, I really didn't like this movie but yeah I agree with you on the music

Not just you, I also feel that way. I mean this anime is unique and considered the best of its time. But the story has a messy plot, mostly unclear pacing.

Nah.
Im sure there is some other Teenager, out there, beeing all like "Whats so special about this? So overrated. aM i tHe oNLy oNE?".


We get it. You're different^^
Seriously, you saying "It didn't interest me", is as far as it goes. That's pretty much what you got.
Doesn't mean that it's a bad movie, tho.

This anime only got good in the last fifteen minutes, I don't think this anime is good, but I respect it for being innovative for its time.
