AKIRA AMV (Blinding Lights - The Weeknd)

I DO NOT OWN THE ANIMATION NOR THE MUSIC
Song: Blinding Lights- The Weeknd
Anime: Akira
I recommend listening with headphones and in the dark with blinding brightness for the full immersive experience 🏍️~

I like how this movie is still relevant to this day.

They just don't make Sci-fi like they used to do they :I
The attention to detail and focus on atmosphere and experiencing the world. Making it all feel alive even without adding a bunch of characters on screen or pumping out unnecessary exposition. Damn we need more of this!!

[Draquia]

This song was made for an 80's anime music video, and Akira was one of the best. Thank you - brilliant production.

[KaiMCGRPS]

The 80s synth in this song and the retrofuturism aesthetic of Akira fits so well

[Bebe_Beka]

If I remember correctly this movie made Masashi Kishimoto draw again. When he was young he has some kind of art block like most artist but one day he saw poster from this movie. He was amazed. He was admiring all details in drawing, the perspective, everything. Next day he start drawing again. More than ever. I read this in manga book I bought and was very curious where I saw this style. So I guess I will watch it. He's huge inspiration for me to draw, as other great authors. Thank 9gag for taking me here. And thank you for this amazing video.

Nothing but complete awe and respect for the people who worked on the movie, the animation and soundtrack... Please watch the movie if you haven't, if not for the story then the animation. Also listen to the original soundtrack of Akira-- it compliments the animation at a level I wish I could achieve.

The film that changed the industry, and the most important animation...
You have to watch before you die.

[reem]

THE SONG JUST WORKS IT JUST DOES. WITH THE 80’S ATMOSPHERE AND ALL. IT’S PERFECT.

[mariothane]

The feeling of this song and the feeling of the movie just match up so perfectly together. Well done!

[kuniva]

Finally watched this last night one of the most amazing movies I've ever watched

[Exxy]

If I would have to live in Akira's world, i'd seriously consider suicide. I have never encountered a more grim world environment that this. The problem is that it seems soooo realistic it hurts x.x (which brings me to the point > amazing piece of art with this immersion)

[kyzerwolf]

Best Production of this song so far. Bravo. The editing was on point and the cuts were just right. You deserve all the praise

[denzel]

you people really need to see this movie (for those who haven't yet) and look at the it's crazy af...more than any anime or anime movies you see nowadays

[computeredfemale]

this was so so good <3 loved the final scene as the music died down and tetsuo looked amazed with his bike lol

[PhillyAllStark]

I was just listening to this song and I was thinking "this woulda been a perfect music video for AKIRA" then I find this. Thank u‼️

[domodominatesdummies]

This movie takes my breath away again and again every time I see it again.

[ptolemaeus]

Nice one. I did watch Akira but never noticed this detailed animation. I think i should watch it again with my experience eyes i got :)

[justarandomperson]

No anime can bring 80s vibe this close

[junedragon]

The song works really well with the movie's aesthetic

[calin]

A brilliant movie and nice anime-song combo :D. Keep up the good work.
