Years ago,
Tokyo was destroyed by an unknown force. Now, in the middle of the 21st century,
Neo Tokyo has been rebuilt on the ruins of the old city. Ravaged by aimless
youths and bike gangs and all the accouterments of a cyberpunk society, this new
city a sight to behold. Somewhere on the underbelly of the city, a young punk,
Tetsuo runs into a strange boy. The boy is part of a military experiment
involving psychics, and a mysterious being known as Akira. Before long, Tetsuo
begins to manifest psychic powers, along with bizarre hallucinations, and to
make matters worse, the government takes interest in his abilities. Things only
get weirder from there on..
