SYDNEY JAPANIME 02

Day 04:

AKIRA

Remastered and redubbed. Do I need to say anymore about this classic? This post apocalyptic tale set in Neo-Tokyo was the one that kickstarted many people’s interest in anime and on the big screen, it still kicks arse. The new dubbing is actually better but damn it, it’s Ka-nay-da, not Kah-nuh-da. That aside, if like me, you never caught Akira on the big screen – here’s your chance!

 

Thus Akira endeth my 4 days anime binge-fest, every anime day felt like a luxury and a treat. I can’t wait till it rolls around again and very happy to see that nearly all the sessions I went to were sold out so I hope that sends a message to all the powers that be that there is a market for anime films here on the big screen!
