It's Akira. What else is there to say? If I had to pick a negative thing, I'd say that the pacing of the film's story is strange and at times hard to follow. However, I think it becomes much easier to understand on repeat viewing(s), which you'll definitely be wanting to do thanks to the stellar artwork, animation, and music and sound design. At the risk of beating a dead horse, Akira is a must-watch for self-proclaimed casuals and diehard fans of anime alike. Watch the damn thing, and read the manga too (it continues the story after the film's climax, and it's paced muchbetter).
