Akira
The Best
Neo Tokyo - Neo Tokyo is an inspiring city the huge super modern skysrapers with connecting walkways make for an excillent battleground between the police and gang members. Also the slums with graffiti and industrial districts all help to make it a believeably city.
Gangs - The varied gangs make great characters in the film the punk school kids against the clown gang looked great.
The Police - I really like the awesome roit control scene where the police fire gas at the roiters and then storm and and beat them up. It is a good scene of police brutality.
Drugs - There are heavy drug referances in the film which I think helps to keep it very real. I can easily imagine in giant super cities drug problems being rife.
Goverment Testing - The plot of the filma bout the tests that the goverment have been doing on people to turn them into weapons is great. The covered up conspiricay to do testing on people against their will is perfect for a dystopia.
The Good

Mad prophets
The Bad
Not The Book - The film can be hard to follow especially later on when all the silliness breaks out.
