0184: Akira

Published: March 26, 2021, 6 a.m.

This week we watch the classic anime Akira, a film that did a lot to shape the tastes of at least two thirds of this pod. But 30 years later does it still hold up? Join us as we find out and discuss the wonders of animation, the two scenes that gave us nightmares and see if Chris has come round on Japanese films yet...
