AKIRA - The story

AKIRA is a science fiction manga created by Katsuhiro Ôtomo between 1982 and 1990. It tells the story of the adventures of two childhood friends turned enemies drawn into the megalopolis of Neo-Tokyo as they fight for survival. A dramatic story including superpowers, political intrigue, and revolution.

The manga was made into an animated film in 1988 providing the scene for this poster, and proved to be a huge success, and not just in Japan, taking the anime beyond the Japanese borders, contributing to its worldwide popularity.

The poster

This print is published by Galerie Riekeles in collaboration with the artist and Kodansha. It is a high-quality reproduction, as faithful as possible to the original work, accurately rendering down to the smallest detail the breathtaking landscapes and backgrounds that helped make the anime from which they are taken internationally successful.

The care taken with the choice of paper and the printing technique make these posters real collectors' items.
