Akira is one of my all time favorites. It's pretty much the reason I got into anime from when I was a kid growing up in the early 90s.

OMG that jacket! It's perfect. I just rewatched this movie for the first time in about 10 years and I have an even better appreciation of it. This cover is so impressive.

@AxisOAnarchy 10 лет назад

It's been too long since I've watched Akira. I should see if it's on Netflix and rewatch it.

@KitsyX 10 лет назад

Rachel Steiner I wonder which dub they'd have... Personally I prefer the old one, but the dub isn't what puts me off the new version most... When they remastered it they made it a fair bit brighter and I liked the darkness in the original... Sometimes with these digital remasters it seems to take away some of the subtlety in the images too, like the shading seems flatter... Ah well, it's probably reasonably decent, but I found it kinda annoying >_> Luckily I got the DVD set with both versions, so it's not too much of a problem ^_^; If only the original Space Adventure Cobra dub was available on DVD v_v; The new dub for that isn't particularly bad either, it's closer to the original Japanese too... But I find changing Crystal Boy's name was more enjoyable for me in the original... Plus the Yello soundtrack they added in was so nice... And I like the slightly cheesier acting as it seems to suit the film better...One of the worst things about the new dub is that they used karaoke tracks instead of the original Japanese songs o_O If they won't rerecord the vocals, they should use the Japanese ones... They might as well have only included the original Japanese in there and not bothered with the English dub... So annoying >__>

@AxisOAnarchy 10 лет назад

KitsyX It's been so long, I probably wouldn't notice. However the remastered version has Johnny Yong Bosch as Kaneda and I really like him as an actor. He's also really nice.

@KitsyX 10 лет назад

Rachel Steiner I think the main difference is that they make the main guys sound younger... I think the blue peeps have childlike voices... Kinda makes sense, but I dunno... The dialogue is probably closer to the Japanese, I think they cut out a load of the swearing... It might be better for it, but I prefer the old voices ^_^; Might just be nostalgia though... Still, I liked them sounding a bit older and it felt a bit more edgy, you know? But yeah, as I said, my main issue with the remastered version is that they brightened everything up and it kinda affects the atmosphere kinda... Maybe it was meant to be that bright though, I'm not sure... But since there was a fairly big deal made out of the guy making it be at night and having to have loads of shades of grey and so on... I dunno... I appreciate them trying to fix the earlier dubbing errors for stuff... I get annoyed when stuff is changed for the English audience, for the most part, but sometimes it's kinda an improvement >_> And, while it may be nostalgia, some of us got that original dub first, so the new one feels wrong... I wish they could keep them as an alternative audio track or something as well... That way you have the option... At least you can go the Japanese with sub version still, but eh... Sorry for going on a bit >_>

@AxisOAnarchy 10 лет назад

KitsyX First of all, I'm going to age myself here. I first saw Akira 18 years ago. So I actually AM one of the ones who got the original dub first. It was when it was hard to find VHS of dubs and I would go to Media Play. So there's no need to explain all of that to me. I'm part of the old school crowd. Thing is... Johnny is someone who I've met on multiple occasions in person and he has been awesome every time. That is why I support the remaster and his acting in it in particular.

I had never heard of Akira before this, but I like the piece. The sundry percussion timbres at the beginning are very effective, and the pianist has excellent precision, particularly on the repeated notes.
