Synopsis

"Within one of 21st Century Neo-Tokyo's great city towers is a secret government project. Here, a volatile group of individuals is gathered. Most volatile of all is Tetsuo, haunted delinquent with murderous psychic power. The project's head, the Colonel, hopes Tetsuo can be used to counter an even greater threat ... the as yet slumbering paranormal giant AKIRA. But three mutant children in the project sense impending doom in Tetsuo's presence. And two captives there -- the anti-government agent, Kay, and Tetsuo's former friend, Kaneda -- would do anything to see Tetsuo never unleash his power again. All of these individuals are prisoners in a deadly chain of events, players in a mounting game of earth-shattering consequence."
