One of the most beautiful and visually dazzling films that I've ever chanced across. The plot is OK, the Japanese acting sounded reasonable to my English ears, but it's the visuals that stick in the mind the most. Highly recommended.

One of the Most Underappreciated animated features and Secretly one of the Greatest films that are Ahead of its Time, Filled with Imagination and the Sense of Wonder, accompanied with the Great Music of the late classical jazz composerOne of the Most Underappreciated animated features and Secretly one of the Greatest films that are Ahead of its Time, Filled with Imagination and the Sense of Wonder, accompanied with the Great Music of the late classical jazz composer Toshiyuki Honda, and the Conveying Characters of the story delivering down-to-heart voice performances, every big frame of the cities and visuals are groundbreaking, and at the same time tries to capture the past, simply a blend of Past present, and the Future.

I had a real blast watching this film, just as amazing as Fritz Lang tried to capture accurately the future in 1920s.

i like Akira, this is by the same guy. Well done but looks very dated, like from 20 years earlier. Akira looks fresher and it was 15 years before this.
