wow... i just finished reading the whole akira manga... and i must say i was completely blown away by it... I was blown away by the anime at one point, but after reading the manga, it just doesnt compare at all. Has anybody read the manga? its 6 volumes, but its damn worth it. I was also suprised how different it was to the anime. I thought the anime was better untill halfway through the 2nd volume, then it got me hooked on the story >_<.
I agree that the anime was really well animated, had an awesome soundtrack, and set the mood perfectly, but the story in the manga was so much more... i dunno how to describe it, just incredible.
anyway, im just wondering what your opinions on either are.
