This is a link post Akira (English Dub) NSFW
Full filum on the Tube of Youness. Old obviously, some may not have seen it though perhaps? Worth a watch either way.

NSFW because what are you doing watching films at work?

This is a normal post it didn't escape my attention last time i watched that,
that it is set in 2019 and they are building a stadium for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

This is a normal post I remember watching this on VHS back in the day
and wondering what the fuss was all about.

This is a normal post I remember being amazed by the animation and the colour palette
but confused by the story

This is a normal post I love the music in that film.
This track is especially killer:

Such an amazing soundtrack.

This is a normal post Great film
Though I'd rather watch it in Japanese with subs

This is a normal post Rather!
Readjusts persnickety monocle.

Joking aside, half the fun of Japanese movies is hearing the Japanese language (even if you don't get a single word)

This is a normal post I think you get more of the feeling behind the words in the original language.

This is a normal post I agree
I also think that if it's in a foreign language (and you have to read it) the acting can be crap and you don't notice, so it makes the films betterer.

This is a normal post aye
but the having to read it bit can be demanding with such a visual feast, special fx laden eye candy demanding your attention whilst you're also trying to read dialogue you could otherwise be hearing - though i agree with the lack of nuance/lost in translation comments above, isn't some appreciation of visual nuance lost in translation when one is also trying to read? rambling... apologies for completely failing to make sense - i'm off to bed.

This is a normal post Enrish dub sheet.
The English dub doesn't tell the story right.

This is a normal post In comparison with the book the film is utter shit!
Stylistically it's brilliant and as a teen I loved it, I re-watched it a couple of years ago with my daughter only to realize what a bloody garbled mess it was.
The manga hadn't even been finished at the point that the film was released and the ending is incredibly vague as a result.

Differing translations to the dubbed version gives a different feel to the movie.

Or watch with the sound muted and assign your friends/family different roles, then recite the subtitles when your character speaks!  It's like Sing-A-Long-A Sound Of Music, it's Talk-A-Long-A Kira! \o/
