It is quite a trip. My abiding memory is just guys screaming 'Tetsuo!!!!!' and the disturbing teddy bear.

Er, I think that was "Tetsuo", not "Akira"
...the clue is in the name.

Both great films, tho*

Have you watched Akira?
After Kaneda, Tetsuo is the most important character and his name is screamed more than once.

^Indeed^ Also Akira is Tetsuo for part of the film at least, hence his transformation
Big fan even brought the sound track, not that I profess to know exactly what the ending means, like badg says it is very confusing, if not gibberish. I’m Just waiting for the blasphemous bastards to ruin it. No doubt Di Caprio will try and make changes to the film, just like he did when he ruined The Beech.

I can't tell if you're making a funny or you have just never seen the film.
But if you did see it, and you missed Tetsuo, cut down on the weed.

Is that shorthand for 'plot free bollocks that looks like pretty'?
