  Akira

  £165.00

  “The shadow of a man can never stand up and walk on its own.”

  A panoramic, widescreen film poster for Katsuhiro Ôtomo‘s groundbreaking adult animation epic…“Akira”. An action packed, award winning, hugely influential offering as we visit a dystopian future society set in Neo Tokyo, Japan. Presented in original unrestored, rolled(as issued) condition this beautiful 2020 UK quad film poster is for the remastered 4K release and features striking anime imagery. A rare film poster and a truly great find due to the very limited cinematic release in art-house and small independent cinemas. Presented in excellent condition, colours (particularly the deep red background) are deep and unfaded with some truly stunning and memorable imagery. This fine example represents a fantastic piece of very collectable and desirable original movie memorabilia that will appeal to Anime/Manga fans or those just looking for something very special to hang on their wall.

  Trivia: The shot of Kaneda’s bike sliding to a stop away from the camera in the opening bike chase sequence is considered to be the most referenced shot in animation. Homages appear in such shows as Teen Titans, Genndy Tartakovsky’s Star Wars: Clone Wars, Samurai Jack, Batman: The Animated Series, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Adventure Time, The Simpsons, and even Pokémon.
