"Akira". I watched most of it while it aired the night after my initial attempt to watch it. I loved the hand drawn animation (the computer assisted stuff these days just strikes me as "too clean and sharp looking"). But I have to say that it left me pretty unsatisfied. It felt rather shallow because any point of the story the movie had, if any, went right over my head.
This falls into how I feel about many original anime films. They come off as very abstract to me because they are often very surreal but lack a moral or point that I can grasp. I really want to say that I like this movie, so any insight would be appreciated.
