Akira

from How's It Hold Up? · host Danika Juarez

(Spoiler Section Length - 16min 35sec) Some movies are known for being massively successful, massively influential, and pillars of their respective genre... and yet also get watched less and less as the years go by, as though knowledge of their reputation is enough and watching the actual film is no longer needed. In many ways, it feels like Akira is one of these movies - frequently mentioned when talking about 'greatest anime movies', but how many fans who started watching anime in the 2000s or 2010s can say they've bothered to go back and watch this film from the late 80s? One might even start wondering if it's worth all the hype. Well, is it? Listen to find out.
