Review: Small point about the edition - You’re probably familiar with the story and if not, you should know it’s one of the seminal works in manga history, and even Japanese literature. My only point in this review is to point out if you’re a manga traditionalist, that this edition and all five other volumes are printed in *western* format. So read from left to right, not the common right to left format that manga fans may be used to.
Review: There really is nothing else like it, this work needs to be experienced and ... - Akira still stands head and shoulders above the competition. The pivotal and compelling stories of a group of low-life juvenile friends who find their fast-riding life style come into a literal collision with destiny. Gorgeous as it is grandiose Akira is painstakingly detailed and remains one of the only graphic novels that can truly be described as "a labor of love". If you are a fan of graphic novels that somehow missed this one, you need to read it. Now. For fans of the film who don't normally read comics, the same applies. There really is nothing else like it, this work needs to be experienced and appreciated for what it is: A stunning work of art.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Story's meh, but the art's gold
*by Q***N on May 14, 2024*

I didn't really care much for the story, I honestly bought the Akira books for it's incredible art work to study for composition. I'm absolutely not disappointed, and it's a gold mine for studying artist trying to improve their visual story telling!
