No doubt in that since it's popularity is still high after all these years. The manga came in great condition and is quite big in my opinion. It measures 25.5 cm in length and 17.5 cm in width, bigger than a standard manga. Might be a little hard to carry around but you should go for it. Review: This thing is great! - Akira is where the scale is humongous and it just gets bigger and bigger. The story closes in on its finale. The artwork of Katsuhiro Otomo is just blew up my mind!!! I mean you have to roll your eyes atleast couple of times through each of the panel. The buildings and cables and wires are drawn very well. The colour pages are awesome too. Akira is perhaps the most influential and dynamic work manga industry will ever get! It never felt like a 1980's manga when I read it. It was miles ahead of it's time and its safe to say that it still is... Very complicated concept yet brilliantly explained in the story to make everyone understand. Katsuhiro Otomo is downright a God when it comes to manga! Most mangakas in Japan who are successful today are partially because of this man's genius. What else do you expect from a single six volume epic?... ## Features - Kodansha Comics ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #327,696 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #485 in Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction (Books) #863 in Science Fiction Short Stories #871 in Humorous Science Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 823 Reviews | ## Images ![Akira 5 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710OmnU7jNL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Timeless Cyberpunk *by D***A on 6 June 2023* Akira still remains one of the best cyberpunk media to ever exist.
