After watching it, I think this movie is great. I like Otomo Keyang so much. It's really amazing. Comrades who want to watch sci-fi movies must watch this movie. Let's talk about the setting of this character first. There are three people with small bodies, but their faces are full of wrinkles. At first I thought it was a character like the three prophets in Minority Report, but I found out later that it was not, they were also experimental subjects, they were because they witnessed the death of Akira who was at the same time as them because he did not control his energy, It has become the existence of limiting energy riots. Their characters are set up from prophets who unravel the mists to falling prey to containing the power. The audience seems to follow them from the dark night to seek a little light source, from having no vision to finally becoming omniscient. These three people played a big role. I don't have any characters I hate. I feel that every character has a reason to exist, whether it's an ambitious scientist obsessed with scientific experimental subjects, who learns that the government is fragmented, runs away with money in a hurry, and then dies in the The government MPs under the guns still trumpeted Akira (an ancient Japanese god) as an anti-government terrorist organization that incites and inspires the people. There were also people who killed people casually at that time, and the bikers who saw the real trick in the racing car, and the spies who worked for the government and went to steal information about Akira's experimental subjects. All kinds of characters, all kinds of faces, interspersed in this film. From behind such a role is chaos and panic within Japan. There is distrust of Japan, as well as the uncontrollable and powerless of biochemical experiments or absolute power. In 1988, such an animation masterpiece already foreshadowed the insignificance of human beings, and technology may develop to a level that humans cannot control. Degree. But this movie has a very positive feeling. At the end, Qingzi's voice flashed in white light, saying that when we humans can control this kind of power, maybe one day in the future. I think it's not only positive, but also has a certain militaristic feel to it. Because Tetsuo did not own Akira, but just a simple test subject has turned a Tokyo upside down. It is conceivable that the real Akira's power may subvert anyone's imagination.

I like Otomo Keyang's animation very much. I have seen a trilogy of his memories before, and I have experienced his greatness. This movie is very sci-fi style, the style of painting is quite exaggerated, and the whole visual impact is very powerful , is the feeling I like very much, like this

Tetsuo

Tetsuo's arm
Jintian is wrapped

Needless to say about the storyboards and transitions, the natural skills are very deep, and the one I like more is the one where Tie Xiong wakes up in the hospital. He sees that all the dolls around him have turned into monsters. The monsters come in through the door, and some Rabbit, bear A masterpiece, and bgm. Too many songs in anime now rely on lyrics. A lot of bgm in this anime is too good. The right place is matched with the right bgm. handsome. Let me tell you something that I personally think is a little bad! It's the protagonist, they all feel the same, except that Jintian may have a darker skin than Tiexiong, and the two feel the same. . Facial blindness committed.

anti-government
lost iron man
Fallen Tokyo Olympic Stadium

Another magical place is the Olympic Stadium. After Tetsuo and those troops fought, it was a mess, and there were wrecks everywhere. Does it to some extent indicate that the 2021 Olympics in Japan will be an arduous battle? This is unknown. .

It is recommended by many stars and has thousands of faces, but a masterpiece full of passion deserves to be seen by more people.

    I put on my headphones and turned on the sound louder than usual. I didn't expect to be scared by the sound of the hammer when the subtitle "31 YEARS..." was released... I watched a Japanese animation, but I didn't expect to download it. English dubbed version... The car chase action scene at the beginning is really cruel and bloody... "Steam Boy", "Memories Trilogy" and this "Aguila", I can basically guess that Otomo Keyang will not become My heart is in love? ...
