Akira Watercolor : Deep Emotions

This 1988 Japanese anime changed my life forever. Almost as vital to my imagination as the Bible. I can't recall how old exactly I was, but I was young when I saw this film with a good friend of mine. We watched it and witness all kinds of wild mind-blowing new capabilities to animation.

Nudity, cursing, blood, and dark storylines with no resolution, but sad and tormenting depressing darkness? Well, sign me up and call me Sally. I was hooked and Akira was the magical gate to some of the most wonderful art I have been blessed to see. A friend vs friend scenario where both are anti-heroes to the person they are.
