アキラ [Akira] #1

This first collected volume of Katsuhiro Otomo's landmark cyberpunk saga compiles the opening chapters of the original Japanese serialization, introducing a post-apocalyptic Neo-Tokyo where biker gangs, government conspiracies, and psychic powers collide. The story follows teenage delinquent Kaneda and his friend Tetsuo, whose latent telekinetic abilities awaken after a chance encounter with a mysterious child from a secret military project. Part 1 lays the foundation for the sprawling narrative that would redefine manga and influence generations of science fiction storytelling.
