Description
In the 21st century, the once-glittering Neo-Tokyo lies in ruins, leveled in minutes by the infinite power of the child psychic giant, Akira. Now a wasteland of rubble and anarchy, the Great Tokyo Empire rises, a ragtag group of zealots and crazies who worship and fear Akira and his mad prime minister, Tetsuo, an angry teen with immense powers of his own — and equally immense, twisted ambitions. The planet at large is not taking the threat lying down; the might of the world is ready to take on the Empire. But will technology's most advanced weaponry be enough to destroy Akira — and is Tetsuo an ever greater threat?
