Akira Book One

Akira begins in the chaotic sprawl of Neo-Tokyo — a city reborn from the ruins of an explosion that once annihilated Tokyo and sparked World War III. Amid the neon-lit streets and biker gangs, two teenage friends, Kaneda and Tetsuo, find themselves drawn into a shadowy government conspiracy when Tetsuo develops terrifying paranormal powers.

Hunted by a secret agency determined to prevent another cataclysm, Tetsuo’s awakening threatens to unleash a force long thought dormant — an unimaginable power known only as Akira.
