This is the work which can continue being forever shocked even if he surely becomes an old person.
Since much already written-in direction comes, the dreadfulness is omitted.
Although it does not understand if it thinks that tastes are divided truly and these works are not read, I want to recommend a single reading to the direction which is not read very much.

Does Katsuhiro Otomo have a good sense?
It turns out that the design of a character or a motorbike and other mechanisms are also designed using mind to a fine portion.
For liking, it is such a good work that is compared with week serial comic strips about there although it is the divided work that it is impolite.
Considerable time already passes since the first edition, and although there are probably also much past work and direction caught, even if it sees now, it is not fading at all.
Although a little touch in character with the hero of a stereotype is not got, is it the work which can still be read pleasantly?
It is the work which loss does not have although whether it is felt interesting reads at once but, respectively.

It knew with the introduction movie version and the comics were read after that.
Due to time, with the movie version, I can read to the place which it was not able to finish drawing, and think whether it was good.
I thought that it was a masterpiece to be sure.

2006/03/29 Very bad [Original Japanese review]
by Okyan Provider: 46212 Host:46242 Browser: 6286
It was the work which does not remain this work in favorite one I'm sorry and the heart.
It was reading on real time.
It went to see the theater version.
The 思いっ end がっ loan was seen and carried out in the movie theater が and those days.
Although he also bought the original for a while and it was read after that, it cooled down completely and Mr.
Katsuhiro Otomo's work disappeared from its own bookshelf (library) altogether at a certain time.
I regard uncanny illustrating, an uncanny draw lump, an overwhelming view of the world, originality, and which as it being the work of the super-first class.
It will be the "highest" if it is only kuoritei of the portion of the picture as comics.
illustrating of this work -- it is not an overstatement even if it says that the work exceeding kuoritei will not appear from now on Those who look at this "a picture (technology)" could be struck.
This work does not have especially bad element and fault.
However, it is not interesting.
(It was not felt interesting.) "Impression" was not carried out, although this work was read and it thought "it is uncanny." I was not able to think a "masterpiece", although it thought that it was a "great work." Although there was a "shock", "nothing which permeates the heart" had it.
Insufficient one does not have one "something that remains in the heart" of them.
Although it may be that this is only for itself, once it feels so, it is already useless.
It is visible only to the grimacing character acting indiscriminately exaggeratedly.
The contents of a story are also thin potatoes, considering the volume of a work.
Mr.
Katsuhiro Otomo thinks that the plot composition power of a long work is not nice to consider.
Although illustrating and composition of the scene of each of are very excellent, the flow of the story as the one whole work is redundant, and futility feels [ many ] it.
Moreover, since it was reading on real time, it may also be that it was minus that deployment has felt it slow extremely.
Mr.
Katsuhiro Otomo thinks that there are many works which are adopting the nice way of collecting in a short story.
Moreover, what "there is also nothing in the tendency to be indiscriminately thankful for kuoritei of illustrating" to comics etc.
has itself.
He likes the comics which sound the heart with Jean warmly also by poor っぴぃ in a picture etc.
and which are impressed and are given.
Probably, I think that it is the never read work.
It is not disagreeable and I regard [ that interest was only lost for itself, and ] it as liking.
It is the evaluation regarded as "very bad" by saying.

Although the friend was recommended and being read, writing is uncanny through the whole volume first!
Especially the prejudice by the background or the motorbike was like [ by which it is looked and overwhelmed ].
Since Tetsuo strongest-ized the direction of the last rapidly, akira has not expected it to be ?
how this would be pushed down at all.
conflict of the inferiority complex and self not only to Tetsuo's also merely calling it a mere enemy but akira -- very much -- skillful く描 -- it is the character which has intensity by he ていた's The completeness of 本作 which let from the beginning to the last pass and introduction development turn and conclusion had accomplished like a movie, and the work itself is remarkable.

Even if it takes a character, a story, composition, and anything, they are first class goods.
They are the comics which it can just be proud of in the world.
It was shocked, when it was recommended to a father and these comics were read those days.
Kanada which is the hero of 本作 is the hero who is thickly loved by anyone of a friend thought who just goes the royal road at 情, though it is a juvenile delinquent.
Though the inferiority complex has been held in Kanada, since Tetsuo had mighty power, he kills a friend, or he misses his foot on a way.
His actions of all could not be denied and there was also a place which can sympathize involuntarily.
For me, disagreeable characters are the precious comics which are not whom only.
About the story, only a few has already wanted the twist.
However, tempo is good, and disperses in some places, and ばれた gag is prosperous.
Moreover, Mr.
Otomo was putting power into the picture considerably, and the scene on which especially akira explodes Tokyo was the highlight.
The amount of writing of the collapsing building is not simple.
it is at the present cartoonist -- even if -- it is not -- although -- it cannot imitate -- if -- ?
-- when the page was seen for the first time, I solidified about 30 minutes out of the shock, and was merely staring Mr.
Otomo is putting power also into the mechanism.
Needless to say, the motorbike of Kanada is typical.
The figure which 疾走 cyber neo Tokyo in that near future-form is too smart.
Such a glaringly vivid impression remains that the motorbike of Kanada will next appear if it is called AKIRA.
He also buys a part and 2 roles for directing a feeling [ that AKIRA is peculiar and cyber ] of the world, and it will be what cannot be removed in this work.
Evaluation is the "highest." Probably, this work that can experience a shock more than being fastidious the point will not appear.
Although it was a digression, did the motorbike of Kanada appear by the real vehicle?
Although general sale is undecided, the dream of many people who want to 疾走 a town by that motorbike is likely to become actual.

This is really uncanny!
I think that it was improved to the great work so far.
Even if it takes how to place the size of a scale, the composition of characters, composition, deployment and consistency of a tale, and preliminary moves, and anything, they are first class goods.
It is not an overstatement even if it calls it the masterpiece movie which does not move.
I think that even a movie is exceeded.
The timing and quantity which add little laughter to serious inside are also exquisite.
the present age when the words of Kanada passed for 20 years or more -- mechakucha -- it is smart It is hot that people die in only and garbage みたい.
It may think from the scale of まぁ話, it is unavoidable, and there is it conversely, and although it is real, Tetsuo may exceed with 絶大って from the middle, か見え may become that there is nothing, and he may forget the preciousness of people's life.
Even if Kanada is awfully stubborn, it is not thought unnaturally that it is wonderful.
I think that 本作 also still becomes the hero tale which said one-step beyond also from this a long time ago.
Although present-day comics are also said as it is and there is a thing, if comics are told, it will 読まなきゃ始ま be ぜ which is not about Mr.
Otomo to Mr.
Tezuka's next!

AKIRA was the highest truly while I am reading certain comics, the writer of the of <AKIRA is the highest -- although it found having written and come to > and the postscript and he bought it, it read at a stretch Just, if it notices, I will feel [ a hero and ] that it turned completely into Kanada and neo Tokyo was ventured for a hero's Kanada rather than it tells him empathy.
It was able to be automatically read also with each surrounding very man-like character.
my K and the delicate love feeling of Kanada -- uncanny -- きに -- it became The heat of Kanada which keeps back K after the purification ceremony of five volumes may remain in the heart most in me.
Though regrettable, although the movie has not seen, I regard this work as the kana whose screen version should not have been made by force.
the work it was regrettable somehow to have bought the last volume, and AKIRA -- it is [!!
] a masterpiece surely

Although animation was the compression thing which is not known well, as it is, this is made.
reading -- でい -- って [ this ] "-- that trash -- the original of a movie ....
」 -- is it having considered what times って?
The performance of a story is ぜんぜん違う.

The super-great work which remains in the history of Japanese comics.
By SF comics, although the comics which endure this do not exist, they are not overstatements.
And also future.
Religion science human being ....
The achievement which made it for enjoyable action comics on the topic of all can just be called miracle.
Depiction of a picture and the psychological description of a character are very precise, and "the world where it lived between the living men" is expressed.
Since tempo does not have a useless good top, either, he can be enjoyed with movie feeling.
It does not 飽き bored although read how many times.
An appropriate fault will not be found if it removes the philosophy color of six volumes having become deep too much, and having toned down a little.
Range which even 1-5 volumes can enjoy as action comics purely individually.
Was Kanada of the hero of these comics a hero typical hot blood type?
It yearns after [ the rash character of this Kanada ], or stripes are carried out, and it is a seed a long time ago.
As for as a child, guroi depiction became a trauma, and these comics did not presuppose that it will read over for a long time.
The same was said of the movie version, and the scene from which Tetsuo becomes a lump of flesh became a trauma, and 本作 was really weak.
Was that Osamu Tezuka's name was introduced to the end of a book of six volumes surprise?

Although the animation version was AKIRA which left itself the trauma like Barefoot Gen, the comics version was gained and read in its high school days by recommendation of a friend.
[ of a schoolchild ] It is writing in finely that it was surprised to the dreadfulness of writing, and details.
Although it is however, the work of this man with the uncanny ways of being elaborate whose stories of Mr.
Otomo are ?, such as writing, is looking at the picture preponderantly from the story.
And this one of AKIRA is more interesting than animation.
I think that the pattern around [ three volume / four volume ] is the most legible with it being individual.
It is also one of the surprise that the chocolate lady is surviving to the last.
I thought that it was a dropout in three volumes absolutely.
Also for Tetsuo, this one is before a man.

The direction of animation got an incomprehensible and unpleasant shock to the extent that it saw at the theater by real time and the atomic bomb was dropped into the head.
I did not think that this work could be touched about ten years.
Early Mr.
Osamu Tezuka's work something is read in the meantime, and it is あさった.
And it dabbled in the direction of the comics of AKIRA a certain day and suddenly.
The impression was different fairly the direction of comics.
やばい.
It was a shock.
It was a shock to the extent that it considered as 水爆落 into the head.
puru -- った .
