Akira is a manga by Katsuhiro Otomo. Set in a near-future city, it follows Tetsuo, a boy who awakens to powerful psychic abilities after a motorcycle accident, and his childhood friend Kaneda. It was serialized from 1982 to 1990 and adapted into an animated film directed by Otomo himself in 1988.

The film is set in the sprawling futuristic metropolis of Neo-Tokyo in a dystopian 2019. It centers on Shōtarō Kaneda, leader of a biker gang, and his childhood friend Tetsuo Shima, who gains powerful telekinetic abilities after a motorcycle accident and eventually threatens a military complex. While many character designs and settings were adapted from the manga, the plot was restructured for the film. The work is widely cited as an influential landmark in Japanese animation and cyberpunk.
