[02:00] ---
Groups of unemployed workers, who have
grown in number due to the tax reforms
[02:04] ---
enacted by the former Prime Minister,
are rioting all across the country.
[02:07] ---
And with the confusion among members
of Parliament sparked by the comments of
[02:11] ---
Finance Minister Takanashi
during a recent Parliament inquiry,
[02:14] ---
there seems to be no compromise in sight
between the government and opposition.
[02:19] ---
Hey. What'll it be?
[02:21] ---
Give me three peanuts.
[02:24] ---
Let's see here...
[02:41] ---
We've herded those
Clown bastards onto Route 5.
[02:46] ---
Damn it, don't scare me like that!
Open the damn door quietly!
[02:49] ---
You wouldn't be so jumpy if
you didn't have something to hide!
[02:55] ---
Try selling some normal
drinks sometime, huh?
[02:57] ---
How about buying something
for once?! This ain't a hangout!
[03:00] ---
And drink that dog piss you sell?!
[03:06] ---
Twin ceramic rotor drives on each wheel...
[03:11] ---
And these are... Computer
controlled anti-lock brakes...
[03:16] ---
200 horsepower at 12,000 rpm...
[03:22] ---
You wanna ride it, Tetsuo?
[03:24] ---
All right, let's go!
[03:29] ---
That bike's been customized just for me.
It's too wild. You couldn't handle it.
[03:33] ---
I don't see how you can
ride something like that, man.
[03:38] ---
I could!
[03:40] ---
If you want one so bad,
steal a big one for yourself.
[04:49] ---
Unbelievable.
[04:50] ---
School kids these days...
[04:53] ---
Wait! Hey, waiter!
[04:59] ---
They ran into the alley! After 'em!
[05:15] ---
This isn't a game, you idiot!
[05:21] ---
Shit...!
[06:26] ---
That's--
[06:28] ---
This is car 375.
[06:30] ---
We've got reports of biker gangs fighting
near the intersection of Highway 14 south!
[06:35] ---
Request immediate assistance!
Car 375, en route to the scene!
[06:40] ---
It's the cops! What should we do?
[06:42] ---
Damn, and my motor coils
were just getting warmed up...
[06:50] ---
Bastards...
[06:52] ---
Let's go, Tetsuo!
[06:54] ---
Right!
[06:55] ---
Damn!
[07:06] ---
A skirmish has broken out
between student protesters
[07:09] ---
and riot police assigned as security.
There appear to be some casualties.
[07:12] ---
Furthermore--
[07:30] ---
What the--?
[07:34] ---
What the hell's going on?!
[07:36] ---
Move it, jerk! I'm in a hurry!
[07:54] ---
What was that?!
[07:55] ---
Call the police!
[08:03] ---
Repeal the tax reforms!
[08:23] ---
This area is off-limits!
Go back! It's dangerous!
[08:29] ---
Something's strange here...
[08:30] ---
Let me through! I'm sorry, let me through!
[08:32] ---
What's the big idea?
[08:41] ---
Look! Blood!
[08:44] ---
Who are they?
[08:45] ---
--Excuse me.
- -Hey! Don't push!
[08:47] ---
Excuse me.
[08:47] ---
Hey! Watch it, jerk!
[08:53] ---
Pardon me. I'm sorry.
[08:55] ---
Ryu!
[08:57] ---
Hey! He ran away!
[09:04] ---
He's got a gun!
[09:11] ---
Fire!
[09:15] ---
Hold your fire! There's a kid with him!
[09:27] ---
Run...
[09:29] ---
Hurry...
[09:36] ---
Go to Ryu...
[09:38] ---
Ryu will help you now...
[09:44] ---
Hurry... Get out of here...
[10:19] ---
Kei!
[10:23] ---
What are you doing? Hurry!
[10:29] ---
He vanished...!
[10:40] ---
He's to the west.
[10:42] ---
The west? He's in the old city, then.
[10:56] ---
Eat this!
[11:10] ---
Tetsuo!
[11:27] ---
"Closed: Beyond this point is
unrepaired, unrestored Old City area."
[11:41] ---
"Oppose Imperialism"
[11:51] ---
Ryu! Ryu, where are you?
[11:57] ---
Kei!
[12:25] ---
No, that's--!
[12:47] ---
How you like that?!
[12:58] ---
Well? Who is it?
[13:01] ---
It's not him! It's not Tetsuo!
[13:04] ---
Okay! Let's go!
[13:10] ---
You little... What did you do...?
[13:28] ---
Tetsuo! Hang on! Hey!
[13:33] ---
Huh? What did you say?
[13:35] ---
That kid...
[13:39] ---
He's hurt bad!
[13:42] ---
Hey! Wait!
[13:46] ---
We gotta get him to a hospital!
[13:47] ---
--He needs an ambulance!
--We can't move him!
[14:00] ---
W-What the hell?!
[14:16] ---
There's no escape.
[14:24] ---
We've come for you.
[14:32] ---
We can't survive on the outside.
Come on, let's go home.
[14:40] ---
It's the army! Those are army helicopters!
[14:50] ---
Move out!
[15:02] ---
Down on your stomachs!
Spread your arms and legs!
[15:04] ---
Um... We're just, uh...
[15:07] ---
Down on your stomachs!
Spread your arms and legs!
[15:19] ---
Ow... Damn it, that hurts!
[15:21] ---
Kai!
[15:28] ---
Hey!
[15:29] ---
Sir?
[15:30] ---
Who are they?
[15:31] ---
They seem to be an ordinary bike gang, sir.
[15:49] ---
We're going back.
[15:52] ---
Ow! Hey, wait a minute!
[15:54] ---
My arms don't bend that way, damn it!
[15:56] ---
Load the wounded onto the helicopter!
[15:59] ---
Tetsuo!
[16:00] ---
Wait! Where are you taking him?
[16:03] ---
Kaneda!
[16:05] ---
What the hell? We didn't do anything!
[16:08] ---
He's heavy...!

[17:10] ---
So you and your friends went out at night
on your bikes to visit your dying mother,
[17:16] ---
and a group of hooligans called
the Clowns picked a fight with you.
[17:20] ---
They hurt your friend,
so you lost your temper,
[17:22] ---
which is why eight Clown
members are now in the hospital.
[17:26] ---
That's your story?
[17:29] ---
She's cute!
[17:31] ---
Hey! You can't look at this!
[17:33] ---
And how's your mother doing?!
[17:34] ---
Huh? Oh.
[17:36] ---
Luckily, she made it
through the worst of it last night.
[17:38] ---
And I suppose she's made it over
the mountains on a bike by now?
[17:48] ---
It couldn't be these bozos.
[17:49] ---
You can tell that just by looking.

"#8 Interrogation Room"
[17:53] ---
Wait on that bench. Understand?
[17:56] ---
How much longer are
we gonna have to wait?
[17:58] ---
Okay! The next five, come get in here!
[18:03] ---
So the army's working with the police to
hunt down anti-government groups now, huh?
[18:14] ---
--Wanna put up a fight, huh?
--He's holding something!
[18:20] ---
Bastard!
[18:24] ---
Long live the freedom revolution!
[18:30] ---
He's got a grenade!
[18:38] ---
Crazy son of a bitch!
[18:46] ---
All right, that's enough! Take him away!
[18:50] ---
We'll really teach him a lesson later.
[18:52] ---
You dumb bastard! If you wanna die,
just hang yourself or something!
[18:56] ---
Hey! You people can go.
We've contacted your school.
[19:01] ---
What? You son of a--
[19:02] ---
Hey, hold on a minute, pops!
[19:04] ---
"Pops"?!
[19:06] ---
There was one more of us.
[19:08] ---
What?
[19:09] ---
Pardon me.
[19:14] ---
What're you--
[19:16] ---
This is her. Can she leave with us?
[19:18] ---
Who are you calling "Pops," you punk?
[19:21] ---
Ow!
[19:22] ---
Look here, kid! I'm only 25!
I'm not even married!
[19:27] ---
So watch your mouth! She can go with you!
[19:32] ---
Call a doctor!
[19:35] ---
So I think the army was chasing
that weird kid Kaneda saw...
[19:40] ---
I think I saw him, too.
[19:42] ---
And what about Tetsuo?
[19:43] ---
Why the hell wouldn't they
tell us what hospital he's in?
[19:46] ---
What did you say?!
[19:48] ---
I was just wondering if you wanted to
grab some tea or something over there.
[19:51] ---
I figured we could have a nice,
long talk about that "revolution" deal.
[19:58] ---
Skirt-chasers will try anything these days...
[20:01] ---
You'll help anyone so
long as they're a girl, won't you?
[20:04] ---
No way! I have high standards!
[20:07] ---
It's not their looks that count.
[20:10] ---
It's their... I dunno, their
sensitivity that moves me.
[20:14] ---
I suppose I owe you one.
Thank you very much, uh...
[20:18] ---
I'm Kaneda. Nice to meet you.
[20:19] ---
See you around, Kaneda.
[20:22] ---
You're leaving already? Don't be like that!
[20:25] ---
Hey, come on! I did save you and all!
[20:34] ---
At least tell me your name, you bitch!
[20:39] ---
I'll try talking with them for
the time being, but it's risky.
[20:43] ---
If they think you're trying to avoid taking
responsibility, it'll blow up in your face.
[20:48] ---
I can't believe that there's a
mole on the executive council.
[20:52] ---
Even if that's true...
[20:54] ---
That isn't important.
[20:56] ---
What's important is diplomacy and political
maneuvering, which you seem to despise.
[21:00] ---
I never studied them in school, you see.
[21:03] ---
In any case, at the next
executive council meeting,
[21:06] ---
your poor management of this last
incident will be called into question.
[21:15] ---
There's a phone call for the Colonel.
[21:19] ---
You should put your affairs in order.
[21:25] ---
It's me.
[21:48] ---
This way, Colonel.
[21:50] ---
I'm terribly sorry to call you here,
[21:53] ---
but there's something you really must see.
[22:00] ---
Please observe.
[22:02] ---
It's the special pattern from that young boy.
[22:05] ---
It doesn't resemble any I've seen so far,
[22:07] ---
and I've never seen a developmental
speed or configuration like this.
[22:10] ---
It may have begun with the shock of
contact with Number 26, or possibly...
[22:15] ---
Have you finished running a
comparison with Akira's pattern?
[22:17] ---
I'll superimpose it over this one.
[22:24] ---
This projection was constructed using
mixed data, so a comparison is difficult,
[22:30] ---
but I believe this boy's
pattern is the key to solving
[22:34] ---
the riddle of Akira's pattern growth process.
[22:37] ---
All right. Continue.
[22:39] ---
Very well, sir. Thank you.
[22:40] ---
I'm sure he'll turn out to be a
worthy addition to the Numbers.
[22:45] ---
It may be rough on him,
[22:47] ---
but I thought we might try
starting him off with level 7 capsules.
[22:51] ---
Is it safe?
[22:52] ---
Leave everything to me.
[22:53] ---
That's not what I meant!
[22:56] ---
I'm asking that if he turns out to
have power like Akira's like you said,
[23:01] ---
will we be able to control it?
[23:04] ---
Well, that's--
[23:06] ---
Can I leave this to you?
[23:08] ---
Well, if we use the latest examination
equipment to collect even more data
[23:14] ---
and do a multifaceted
analysis, then surely...
[23:20] ---
Maybe we shouldn't touch that power.
[23:24] ---
The power of God?
[23:30] ---
A... ki... ra...
[23:33] ---
But we have to. We have
to touch it and control it.
[23:39] ---
If it looks like it's too much for us
to handle, terminate him at once!
[23:42] ---
There can be no hesitation!
[23:44] ---
Very well, Colonel.
[23:46] ---
"Ward 8 Vocational Training School"
[23:47] ---
his school is your last chance!
[23:50] ---
If trash like you that can't keep up with
the academic ability of regular students
[23:54] ---
and can't adapt to living in a group
screw up here, it's the end of the road!
[23:58] ---
Even if you're under 15, if you get more
than 50 penalty points on your record,
[24:02] ---
you're sent to the regular courts!
[24:05] ---
Bite me! Don't mess with us, you bald goat!
[24:07] ---
Aren't any of you listening?
[24:09] ---
--You lost me halfway through!
--Discipline!
[24:11] ---
Discipline!
[24:12] ---
--Discipline!
- -Ow!
[24:14] ---
Discipline! Discipline!
[24:17] ---
Discipline!
[24:18] ---
Dismissed!
[24:20] ---
Thank you very much, sir!
[24:24] ---
You bastard! You and me are
gonna go at it someday, jack!
[24:28] ---
We're gonna remember this!
[24:29] ---
I hope you rot and die!
[24:30] ---
You sick bastard!
[24:32] ---
Shit...
[24:39] ---
Yamagata!
[24:40] ---
What happened to your cheek?
[24:42] ---
Shut the hell up.
[24:44] ---
Let me guess, Jaws from P.E.?
[24:46] ---
They say you fought the
Clowns on a highway in the old city!
[24:48] ---
Yeah.
[24:49] ---
Why don't you just wipe 'em out?
Those guys are so gross!
[24:52] ---
And last night...
[24:54] ---
There were demonstrators,
cops, and even the damn army!
[24:56] ---
And that idiot Tetsuo had an accident, too.
[24:58] ---
What happened to Tetsuo?
[25:00] ---
He's in the hospital.
I guess, but we don't know where.
[25:02] ---
The idiot was trying to show off.
[25:07] ---
That idiot...
[25:08] ---
What, you mean Tetsuo?
[25:10] ---
Shut up! I've had enough
of your damn flirting!
[25:13] ---
What's gotten into you?!
[25:30] ---
Tetsuo? It's time for your medication.
[25:35] ---
Doctor! There's a problem!
[25:42] ---
I can't. The dorm mother
throws a fit if you go out before 10.
[25:47] ---
Yeah, the one with the face like a goat.
[25:49] ---
That old bag's such a pain...
She's always yammering on and on and on.
[25:54] ---
Tomorrow at three? Sure, that'd be okay.
[25:56] ---
Hey, what happened
to that girl a while back?
[26:00] ---
I don't like her much.
Her personality just gets on my nerves.
[26:04] ---
Kaori...
[26:07] ---
Tetsuo!
[26:09] ---
Everyone's been worried about you!
They thought you might be dead.
[26:20] ---
When I woke up, I was on an
operating table or something.
[26:24] ---
And that examination...
[26:27] ---
It's like... they were messing
around inside my head.
[26:31] ---
I don't want to go back there.
[26:34] ---
Let's run away...
[26:36] ---
Where?
[26:38] ---
Someplace. Someplace far away.
[26:46] ---
--What's your problem?
--That's mine!
[26:48] ---
I wanna get laid!
[26:49] ---
Hey! Today's independent study!
[26:51] ---
Say what? What about
my burning desire to study?!
[26:56] ---
Drag his butt in here!
[26:59] ---
Kaneda! Your bike!
[27:01] ---
My bike?
[27:04] ---
Look!
[27:09] ---
Tetsuo!
[27:12] ---
Are you sure this is okay?
[27:13] ---
Shut up! Just keep quiet and hang on!
[27:19] ---
"Off Limits"
[27:27] ---
Huh?
[27:28] ---
What's wrong?
[27:32] ---
Shit!
[27:33] ---
Oh, no...
[27:33] ---
"End the Shimamoto
Labor Union's Illegal Strike!!"
[27:34] ---
We're stopping... We stopped.
[27:37] ---
Oh, okay. The engine can't drop below
5,000 even when you're changing gears.
[27:42] ---
--My butt hurts.
--Okay, I get it...
[27:45] ---
Look, bikes!
[27:47] ---
Is that Kaneda and...?
[27:49] ---
It's not them!
[27:54] ---
Kaori!
[27:59] ---
Any sign of him?
[28:01] ---
Kuwata and the others
went to look around Kisarazu.
[28:03] ---
All that's left now is the industrial area!
[28:06] ---
Okay, let's go!
[28:11] ---
We owe you for the other night!
[28:22] ---
Shut up!
[28:27] ---
Kaori! What did they do, Kaori?!
[28:36] ---
Don't! If you so much as scratch
that bike, I'm gonna kill you!
[28:47] ---
Run!
[28:48] ---
Don't let 'em get away!
[28:56] ---
Wait!
[29:07] ---
Tetsuo!
[29:15] ---
"Smash the Strike!!"
[29:26] ---
That's enough, Tetsuo!
Are you trying to kill him?
[29:28] ---
Yes! I'm gonna kill him!
I'll split his damn head open!
[29:31] ---
Knock it off!
[29:33] ---
This happened because
you took my bike for a joyride.
[29:37] ---
Enough, already!
[29:38] ---
Shut up! Don't order me around!
[29:42] ---
We were worried about you.
[29:44] ---
Why do you always have
to come and save me?
[29:47] ---
I could 've handled it myself!
I admit I got beat up that one time,
[29:52] ---
but I won't always be on the receiving end!
[29:56] ---
Understand?!
[30:02] ---
Tetsuo...
[30:05] ---
Shut up! Stay away from me!
[30:09] ---
Hey, wait! Where are you going?
[30:13] ---
Leave me alone!
[30:16] ---
Akira!
[30:22] ---
Tetsuo!
[30:26] ---
What's wrong?
[30:28] ---
Akira!
[30:29] ---
I don't know who that is!
[30:54] ---
Tetsuo, are you...
[30:56] ---
Hey!
[31:02] ---
This is strange.
[31:03] ---
I'm getting a blue pattern on scope #3!
[31:07] ---
Oh, no! Retrieve the subject! Hurry!
[31:23] ---
What're you doing to my friend?!
[31:29] ---
What's with you?
You just come back from a funeral?
[31:40] ---
Tetsuo!
[31:42] ---
Kaneda!
[31:44] ---
Shit...
[31:55] ---
Wait!
[32:03] ---
Hey, Kaneda...
[32:17] ---
I see we have some youngsters doing
their thing in spite of the tight checkpoints.
[32:22] ---
That just means that
they're stupid, don't it?
[32:29] ---
This is boring. Hey, let's go home.
[32:34] ---
But it's still early!
[32:35] ---
Yeah, but without their bikes
they're just skirt-chasers out of water.
[32:39] ---
You mean "fish"!
[32:41] ---
Come on, let's go. Let's
toss these fish back!
[32:44] ---
Hey, Kaneda, what're we gonna do?
[32:50] ---
What the--?
[32:52] ---
Look!
[33:19] ---
That's...
[33:21] ---
Here we go again... Let's get out
of here before we get involved again.
[33:24] ---
Huh?
[33:26] ---
Kaneda?
[33:28] ---
Hey!
[33:30] ---
This area is being cordoned
off due to a terrorist bombing.
[33:34] ---
Those who wish to get
through, line up in single file,
[33:37] ---
present your ID and go
through the checkpoint.
[33:50] ---
Get in.
[33:52] ---
What's wrong? Hurry. I'll
be right behind you.
[33:56] ---
You know the rendezvous point, right?
[33:59] ---
--Be careful.
- -You too, Ryu.
[34:09] ---
"We're the Clowns"
[34:15] ---
Stop! Stop, damn it!
[34:20] ---
She's got a gun!
[34:33] ---
Okay, that's far enough!
[34:35] ---
Drop the gun!
[34:44] ---
Drop it now!
[34:51] ---
Stop!
[35:06] ---
I think it came from over here!
[35:08] ---
--There were two shots!
--No, three!
[35:10] ---
It's just up ahead!
[35:12] ---
Hey. Let's get out of here.
[35:15] ---
Come on!
[35:44] ---
"Idiot | Moron | Fool | No. 1"
[36:22] ---
Kaneda!
[36:50] ---
So, what's the matter?
Try telling me about it.
[36:54] ---
I had a dream.
[36:56] ---
A dream?
[37:00] ---
The city will be covered by a
dark shadow and start to crumble.
[37:05] ---
Lots of people died...
[37:07] ---
...and we met Akira again.
[37:12] ---
Akira?!
[37:13] ---
The city will crumble,
and so many people will die...
[37:20] ---
When?! When will it happen, Kiyoko?!
[37:24] ---
You mustn't let that boy go.
[37:27] ---
His power, it...
[37:37] ---
What did she mean?!
[37:38] ---
Well, there's nothing
physically wrong with her.
[37:44] ---
Her medication is normal. too.
[37:45] ---
There's no sign of any abnormalities
in her ECG or EEG, either.
[37:50] ---
I think what Number 25 said
was her precognitive power at work.
[37:56] ---
This must be presented to the
supreme executive council for inquiry, but...
[38:01] ---
Do you believe her?
[38:03] ---
I have no doubts
regarding Number 25's abilities.
[38:05] ---
We have all sorts of data
that substantiate her abilities.
[38:08] ---
What about you, Colonel?
[38:11] ---
My job isn't to believe or disbelieve.
It's to act or not to act.
[38:28] ---
Here, sir.
[38:29] ---
Cold gear, Colonel.
Please put it on. You, too, Doctor.
[38:44] ---
The other day, a young
researcher asked me something.
[38:49] ---
He wondered if their power was the form
the next stage of human evolution was taking,
[38:53] ---
and perhaps that we'll all
be able to control it someday.
[38:59] ---
Scientists are a bunch of romantics.
[39:02] ---
Military men always consider the risks first.
[39:05] ---
It's taken thirty long years.
[39:08] ---
We've come so far from the rubble.
[39:12] ---
We can't just trade one for the other.
[39:14] ---
I've always thought that
you hated this city, Colonel.
[39:19] ---
The passion to build has cooled
and the joy of reconstruction forgotten,
[39:24] ---
and now it's just a garbage heap
made up of hedonistic fools.
[39:28] ---
So you're trying to save the city, then.
[39:32] ---
It's how a soldier thinks.
A scientist wouldn't understand.
[39:39] ---
Colonel, we're here.
[39:41] ---
This way, sir.
[40:03] ---
Room 10, 148 degrees Kelvin.
[40:07] ---
Fluctuation tolerance range, check.
[40:09] ---
Room 9, 118 degrees Kelvin.
Fluctuation tolerance, check.
[40:14] ---
Emergency power generator, check.
[40:17] ---
Open it.
[40:18] ---
Yes, sir.
[40:20] ---
Uh...
[40:20] ---
Go to the Control Room!
[40:21] ---
Yes, sir!
[40:39] ---
Room 1 is at 0.0005 degrees Kelvin.
It's within tolerances.
[40:45] ---
No abnormalities detected in any of the
rooms' Dewar Walls or in the defense system.
[40:51] ---
No abnormal atmospheric
concentrations or reactions recorded.
[40:54] ---
All systems nominal, then?
[41:06] ---
Look at what they abandoned
in their panic. They were afraid!
[41:10] ---
They were too scared,
so they hid it away from the public.
[41:12] ---
They forgot all shame and honor
[41:14] ---
and cast off the civilization
and science we had created,
[41:19] ---
and shut the lid of the Pandora's Box
they themselves had opened.
[41:28] ---
Ryu!
[41:29] ---
Hey, we're still young.
[41:31] ---
I think we can start over.
[41:34] ---
I'll go with you to the police.
[41:35] ---
Ryu!
[41:36] ---
Come on, turn yourself in!
[41:38] ---
That was the first time you
ever killed somebody, right?
[41:40] ---
Ryu!
[41:41] ---
Anyway, once you've
purified your body and soul,
[41:44] ---
let's go out for tea or something.
[41:46] ---
Don't kick yourself over it, okay?
[41:48] ---
What's done is done. The guy's dead.
[41:59] ---
Who're you?!
[42:02] ---
Ryu! You're okay!
[42:04] ---
--Kei, is that you?
- -Ryu!
[42:07] ---
Who's this?
[42:09] ---
Who, me?
[42:11] ---
Well, I guess saying I'm Kei's
boyfriend might be stretching it a bit.
[42:17] ---
But we haven't gotten physical
or anything yet, understand?
[42:21] ---
--Are you a spy?!
- -No!
[42:22] ---
Liar!
[42:28] ---
Is he really okay?
[42:29] ---
All I know for sure is that he's not a spy.
[42:33] ---
Ow...
[42:36] ---
Sneak into their lab?!
[42:38] ---
Are you serious? Don't you
remember the fiasco with that kid?!
[42:41] ---
Last-minute orders.
Besides, the plan's already in place.
[42:48] ---
The lab passes they issue once a week...
[42:51] ---
They're from Mr. Nezu?
[42:53] ---
What's the objective?
[42:54] ---
Detailed data on the new subject.
[42:57] ---
New subject?
[42:59] ---
Yes. Last week, on the night we tried
to abduct the subject called Number 26,
[43:06] ---
a boy who was in an accident on an
old city highway was brought to the lab.
[43:11] ---
Looks like he's a student
at a vocational training school.
[43:13] ---
but he's now their new subject
for human experimentation.
[43:20] ---
Ow!
[43:22] ---
Ow! What's the big idea?!
[43:25] ---
You!
[43:26] ---
He heard us! Let's kill him!
[43:28] ---
Ryu!
[43:29] ---
W-Wait a minute! Listen to me!
Listen to what I have to say!
[43:33] ---
He saved me!
[43:34] ---
Twice!
[43:35] ---
Maybe it was just to get close to us.
[43:37] ---
The guy who was in that accident
in the old city is a friend of mine!
[43:41] ---
I know it's hard to believe,
but it's the truth!
[43:44] ---
I was there when it happened!
[43:47] ---
Don't they say the only foolish
questions are unasked ones?
[43:51] ---
Huh? They don't?
[43:55] ---
That's an intriguing story.
[43:58] ---
Will you be taking the boy with you?
[44:01] ---
He knows the subject, and I think
we can use him as a decoy if necessary.
[44:06] ---
Neo Tokyo is going to change.
[44:10] ---
In all respects, this city is
saturated. It's like an overripe fruit.
[44:15] ---
And within it is a new seed.
[44:18] ---
We only need to wait for
the wind which will make it fall.
[44:22] ---
The wind called Akira!
[44:25] ---
Ryu, look!
[44:29] ---
What is it?
[44:30] ---
We aren't the ones who will change it,
[44:33] ---
but rather, those citizens
who hope for Akira will.
[44:37] ---
That which is called
science perverts providence!
[44:41] ---
That which is called progress
encourages extravagance!
[44:43] ---
"The Day of Awakening is
Near!" "Pamphlets 500 yen"
[44:44] ---
That which is called civilization
devastates the spirit of man!
[44:46] ---
That which is called civilization
devastates the spirit of man!
[44:49] ---
The time of atonement is upon us!
[44:53] ---
The time of his awakening is nigh!
[44:53] ---
"Lord Akira the Enlightened"
The time of his awakening is nigh!
[44:55] ---
The time of Lord Akira's
awakening draws near!
[44:58] ---
--Are your hearts prepared?!
--All right, break it up!
[45:02] ---
Holding meetings here is prohibited!
[45:04] ---
Break up this illegal gathering!
[45:07] ---
Terrorist activities carried out by
[45:09] ---
anti-government elements
have skyrocketed this month.
[45:13] ---
The army, riot police, and even
traffic police have been fully mobilized.
[45:17] ---
The overtime costs alone have
used up the public safety budget.
[45:21] ---
And then there's the abduction of Number 26!
[45:23] ---
Isn't their existence supposed
to be highest of state secrets?
[45:26] ---
No one's ever heard of "Peace
and Order" here in Neo Tokyo, then?
[45:30] ---
And then there's this request of yours
[45:34] ---
for further funding because
of subject Number 25's prediction.
[45:39] ---
You must be joking!
[45:40] ---
We Parliament members have been
begging the public to bear with us
[45:45] ---
while we straighten out the former
Prime Minister's historic tax reform blunders,
[45:51] ---
so where, exactly, are we
supposed to get that kind of money?!
[45:54] ---
You've spent a fortune, and all we have to
show for it is that grotesque kindergarten!
[45:59] ---
The Olympics are next year.
The postwar period is over.
[46:01] ---
How much longer will you keep
spending money on some ghost?!
[46:05] ---
I always said that we should've put
that money into the welfare program!
[46:08] ---
Shut up, old man!
[46:09] ---
What?!
[46:10] ---
That power is starting to
walk around free as we speak.
[46:14] ---
--Unless we control it now, we'll lose everything!
--Who do you think you're talking to, youngster?
[46:20] ---
It was your lack of policy that
started this mess in the first place!
[46:23] ---
There's still no proof that the
last World War was caused by Akira!
[46:27] ---
Won't you even try to
understand anything at all
[46:32] ---
unless an Akira disaster actually happens?!
[46:34] ---
Has anyone actually seen this "Akira"?
[46:36] ---
Wasn't Akira Number 25?
[46:38] ---
No, I think he was Number 21...
[46:41] ---
The Colonel has lost
sight of his duty as a soldier.
[46:45] ---
I've had reports that
anti-government elements are using
[46:47] ---
this "Akira" madness of yours as an
excuse to whip up their terrorist fervor!
[46:53] ---
No! That's untrue!
[46:55] ---
Then what about that
Akira world renewal movement?
[46:58] ---
Wouldn't you say that
information's being leaked?
[47:00] ---
World renewal movement?
End of the world, more like!
[47:03] ---
Aren't you just using Akira as
camouflage to cover up your misconduct?
[47:07] ---
What are you getting at?
[47:09] ---
Colonel, we can no longer leave the
peace of Neo Tokyo to your sole discretion.
[47:18] ---
Right!
[47:19] ---
You are to be put before
an inquiry committee.
[47:22] ---
I agree!
[47:27] ---
Excuse me!
[47:29] ---
Colonel! Colonel, where are you--
[47:31] ---
Wait! This discussion isn't over yet!
[47:34] ---
Explain yourself!
[47:35] ---
Are you trying to insult the
supreme executive council?!
[47:38] ---
Colonel...!
[47:39] ---
Wait, Colonel!
[48:03] ---
W-Water...
[48:37] ---
Hey, wait a minute...
[48:40] ---
Isn't that cable replacement
scheduled for next week?
[48:43] ---
The cable they ordered came in early.
[48:47] ---
Besides, I'm going on vacation
at the end of the week.
[48:51] ---
I've brought some workers with me, too.
[48:55] ---
I could take it back, but the
work's gonna be done sooner or later.
[49:04] ---
Okay, let's go.
[50:36] ---
What the--?
[51:07] ---
Milk?
[51:17] ---
Stay away!
[51:31] ---
Blood!
[51:32] ---
I'm scared!
[51:42] ---
Jerk!
[51:44] ---
W-Who the hell are they?
[52:42] ---
Room 887, Tetsuo Shima...
[52:46] ---
A problem with the automatic lock?
[52:53] ---
Hey! You can't just walk off from your room!
[53:01] ---
Come on, let's go back.
[53:03] ---
What the hell happened? What a mess!
[53:28] ---
There are 58 blocks with circuits
that the computer won't display.
[53:32] ---
Of those, nearly 40 are concentrated
on underground levels 7 and 8.
[53:37] ---
That's probably the place.
[53:40] ---
The central wiring shaft should be up ahead.
[53:43] ---
We should be able to use it
to go straight to the sublevels.
[53:47] ---
Be careful. it's deeper in the middle.
[53:50] ---
What a stink!
[53:52] ---
Quiet!
[53:53] ---
What? I said it stinks because it stinks!
[53:56] ---
--Is your nose busted?
--Hurry up and stay quiet!
[54:00] ---
Damn! Hide!
[54:03] ---
Huh? Where?
[54:05] ---
What're you doing, you idiot?!
[54:20] ---
They left?
[54:22] ---
Looks like they've beefed up security.
[54:24] ---
Must be that siren we heard.
[54:26] ---
What should we do? Scout around some?
[54:27] ---
No.
[54:29] ---
--Are you okay?
--Let's keep going.
[54:30] ---
I want to check out their
security at the very least.
[54:32] ---
All right.
[54:33] ---
We've been spotted! Run!
[54:36] ---
Shit!
[54:38] ---
Don't! Don't shoot!
[54:43] ---
Shimazaki! Shit!
[54:47] ---
Forget about him! Run!
[54:53] ---
What the hell is that?
[54:56] ---
Here it comes!
[54:58] ---
Forget it! You can't do any good!
[55:05] ---
Die!
[55:08] ---
This is Unit 304, Shaft H!
[55:09] ---
I have encountered intruders
and am engaging! Request backup!
[55:14] ---
Here it comes!
[55:41] ---
Kei!
[55:45] ---
Where's that gun?!
[55:47] ---
Damn it...!
[55:51] ---
Kaneda!
[56:03] ---
Kei, this way!
[56:06] ---
Hurry!
[56:09] ---
Kaneda, hurry!
[56:26] ---
Kaneda!
[56:41] ---
The brakes! Where are the brakes?!
[56:43] ---
That's not it?
[56:44] ---
This is the central wiring shaft!
[56:46] ---
It's gotta be this one, then!
[56:54] ---
Okay, I'm getting the hang of this!
[56:57] ---
Ask the Colonel for clearance to fire!
[56:59] ---
Turn that up!
[57:01] ---
There must be some mistake.
[57:03] ---
That boy looks like the
patient they admitted to the lab.
[57:06] ---
The boy, the subject named
Tetsuo Shima, broke out of his room.
[57:09] ---
I think he's headed for the Baby Room.
[57:11] ---
Tetsuo?!
[57:12] ---
He is in an extremely dangerous
state! Don't let him through!
[57:15] ---
I repeat, do not let him through!
[57:46] ---
What the--?
[57:55] ---
It's no use hiding.
[57:56] ---
We have no choice, then. Use your guns!
[57:59] ---
We can't let him go any
farther, no matter what it takes!
[58:03] ---
Fire!
[58:44] ---
So, here you are...
[58:52] ---
Stop it!
[58:55] ---
How long are you
gonna keep playing around?!
[59:05] ---
Where'd the other one go?
[59:08] ---
Why, you...
[59:11] ---
Die!
[59:15] ---
Takashi!
[59:27] ---
What the hell is going on?
Am I dreaming or something?
[59:32] ---
I never knew I had powers like this!
[59:43] ---
Damn it, which way should I go?!
[59:45] ---
Straight. Straight ahead...
[59:49] ---
Huh?
[59:50] ---
There's a freight elevator.
[59:54] ---
We can take it to sublevel 8.
[1:00:05] ---
Good, you're all together.
[1:00:09] ---
You thought you could kill me?
[1:00:13] ---
You tried to mess with me...
I'm gonna kill you!
[1:00:23] ---
That was you--
[1:00:25] ---
Takashi!
[1:00:27] ---
Attack him together!
[1:00:29] ---
O-Okay.
[1:00:35] ---
You little twerps!
[1:00:54] ---
That's enough! All of you!
[1:01:04] ---
Who the hell are you?!
[1:01:09] ---
What's the matter?
Does your head hurt, Tetsuo Shima?
[1:01:12] ---
Your power isn't fully matured.
[1:01:14] ---
If you push yourself,
you might do irreparable damage.
[1:01:17] ---
Just do as we tell you.
[1:01:19] ---
What the hell did you people do to my head?!
[1:01:32] ---
Calm yourself, Tetsuo Shima!
[1:01:34] ---
He can't control it.
[1:01:41] ---
What?!
[1:01:43] ---
She said that big people like you
should never use the power like that.
[1:01:48] ---
She says something horrible will happen.
[1:01:51] ---
Mind your own business.
[1:01:55] ---
What? More powerful than me?
[1:02:01] ---
He's the one! He's been popping
in and out of my head lately!
[1:02:06] ---
Where is he?! Where's this "Akira"?!
[1:02:09] ---
What?!
[1:02:10] ---
Kiyoko said that you'll awaken Akira.
[1:02:14] ---
If that happens, no one
will be able to stop him.
[1:02:17] ---
So before that can happen,
we have to stop you.
[1:02:19] ---
Impossible! Akira's already--
[1:02:21] ---
Where is he?!
[1:02:25] ---
Stop it!
[1:02:26] ---
Shut up!
[1:02:33] ---
Threat level to facility
integrity has passed level 7.
[1:02:37] ---
Enacting disaster protocols.
[1:02:41] ---
Threat level to facility
integrity has passed level 7.
[1:02:45] ---
Enacting disaster protocols.
[1:02:48] ---
What the--?!
[1:02:57] ---
Hands up!
[1:03:02] ---
Where the hell is the "Baby Room"?!
[1:03:16] ---
Oh, no! Run!
[1:03:22] ---
Gangway, coming through! Coming through!
[1:03:25] ---
Damn it, move!
[1:03:28] ---
Kiyoko...
[1:03:50] ---
Damn, that hurt...
[1:03:51] ---
Kaneda? What're you doing here?
[1:03:58] ---
Tetsuo! Are you okay?
I'm here to rescue you!
[1:04:03] ---
Hurry up, you moron! If we don't get
out of here, those guys outside are gonna--
[1:04:09] ---
There he is! Catch him!
[1:04:14] ---
Stay away from me!
[1:04:20] ---
Kaneda!
[1:04:24] ---
Oh, right. I forgot you were there, Kaneda.
[1:04:28] ---
That's okay, Kaneda.
[1:04:30] ---
I won't be needing you to save me anymore.
[1:04:35] ---
From now on, I'll be saving you.
[1:04:38] ---
All you have to do is ask, Kanny.
[1:04:41] ---
Say what? Who the hell do
you think you're talking to?!
[1:04:47] ---
You don't like the way I talk?
[1:04:50] ---
Does it make you mad?
[1:04:51] ---
Well, what're you gonna do about it?!
[1:04:53] ---
Huh, Kaneda?! What're
you gonna do about it?!
[1:05:06] ---
That's enough! Don't hurt anyone else!
[1:05:13] ---
Where's this "Akira" guy?!
[1:05:16] ---
He...
[1:05:18] ---
The Olympic stadium...?
In an underground facility?
[1:05:21] ---
No! You're wrong! Akira is--
[1:05:27] ---
Wait!
[1:05:38] ---
What the hell? I can do this, too?!
[1:05:48] ---
Kiyoko, are you okay?
[1:05:50] ---
It doesn't look like she's hurt.
[1:05:52] ---
What about you, Masaru? You're bleeding.
[1:05:55] ---
What happened to him?
[1:05:57] ---
He flew away.
[1:05:59] ---
How can he have so much power...?
[1:06:03] ---
How could this have
happened? Is anyone here?
[1:06:07] ---
He's developed so much
power in such a short time...
[1:06:11] ---
Find him! Find Tetsuo!
[1:06:13] ---
--Find him! Go after him!
--Kaneda! Hang on, Kaneda!
[1:06:17] ---
Hurry up! Get that rubble cleared!
[1:06:22] ---
He went to where Akira is.
[1:06:24] ---
What? You're all safe!
[1:06:28] ---
He's heading for the facility
below the Olympic construction site.
[1:06:32] ---
How did Tetsuo find out about that?!
[1:06:37] ---
You mean he's gone outside?
[1:06:43] ---
Damn it! We'll follow
him! Prepare for pursuit!
[1:06:47] ---
--Yes, sir!
--He's heading west!
[1:06:48] ---
He's heading for the
Olympic construction site!
[1:06:51] ---
Tell them to beef up their security!
[1:06:54] ---
--You...!
--Set up checkpoints on all...
[1:07:02] ---
According to the defense team, intruders
were encountered in the wiring shaft.
[1:07:07] ---
--Two disguised as workers resisted
[1:07:09] ---
--He has to be stopped before his powers mature...
--and were shot, and the rest are at large.
[1:07:14] ---
Your objective is the boy Tetsuo Shima.
[1:07:17] ---
If we are unable to capture him, you will
lure him out to the old city and attack.
[1:07:20] ---
Request assistance from
the Eastern District Battalion.
[1:07:23] ---
Yes, sir!
[1:07:23] ---
Tell them there isn't a moment to lose!
[1:07:28] ---
I've been waiting for you, Colonel.
[1:07:31] ---
Who the hell are you?!
[1:07:34] ---
I'm here to inform you of the
supreme executive council's decision.
[1:07:40] ---
At 2400 hours today, the Colonel is
hereby stripped of his command and rank,
[1:07:45] ---
and will be placed under arrest.
[1:07:47] ---
What?!
[1:07:49] ---
Please come with us.
[1:07:52] ---
You expect me to hand Neo Tokyo
over to those fools at a time like this?
[1:07:59] ---
--Shoot him.
- -Yes, sir!
[1:08:00] ---
What?
[1:08:02] ---
W-Wait!
[1:08:05] ---
Enough! Open your eyes
and look at the big picture!
[1:08:09] ---
We can't dance to the tune of
corrupt politicians and capitalists!
[1:08:17] ---
Don't you understand?!
It's pointless to fight anymore!
[1:08:24] ---
Announce a state of emergency,
arrest all members of the executive council
[1:08:29] ---
and remove them from
the chain of command!
[1:08:32] ---
We're going after Tetsuo!
[1:08:34] ---
Urgent message to all
district battalion commanders!
[1:08:43] ---
"Haruki-ya"
[1:08:47] ---
Hey, what's up? You by yourself?
[1:08:53] ---
Weren't you in an accident or something?
[1:08:56] ---
Everybody's been worried.
So, you feeling better?
[1:08:59] ---
Gimme some... capsules.
[1:09:03] ---
Hey, are you sure about that?
You don't look so hot.
[1:09:07] ---
Just hand 'em over!
[1:09:10] ---
All right, if you say so.
[1:09:12] ---
But with all those demonstrations and
terrorist attacks lately, things are rough.
[1:09:17] ---
They're hard to come by,
so they're pretty expensive.
[1:09:27] ---
Tetsuo's run off, Kaneda's disappeared...
I guess the team's finished.
[1:09:31] ---
And the checkpoints are so strict,
even the Clowns are staying put.
[1:09:46] ---
What's wrong?
[1:09:48] ---
"This End Up"
[1:09:51] ---
He's dead!
[1:09:52] ---
What?!
[1:09:56] ---
What the--?
[1:10:03] ---
Tetsuo?
[1:10:04] ---
What are you doing here?
[1:10:09] ---
You want some, too?
[1:10:12] ---
What are you talking about, damn it?!
What the hell happened here?!
[1:10:15] ---
The barkeep's dead!
[1:10:21] ---
A fish out of water dies, huh?
[1:10:24] ---
You are Tetsuo... Aren't you?
[1:10:30] ---
Kaneda sends his regards.
[1:10:32] ---
You saw Kaneda?!
[1:10:34] ---
He's probably dead by now...
[1:10:40] ---
You did this, Tetsuo?
[1:10:43] ---
So anyway... Where's Kaneda's bike?
[1:10:48] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:10:50] ---
I don't need a piece of
junk like that anymore...
[1:10:52] ---
You son of a...
[1:10:59] ---
Yamagata!
[1:11:07] ---
Shit...
[1:11:16] ---
He went to where Akira is?
[1:11:18] ---
That's what that girl said.
[1:11:20] ---
The army, you, and Ryu are
all looking for this "Akira" guy,
[1:11:25] ---
so that's why you're chasing after Tetsuo.
[1:11:27] ---
It has something to do with
that power of Tetsuo's, right?
[1:11:31] ---
What the hell is this "Akira"
thing you keep talking about?
[1:11:36] ---
Ryu told me about it once.
He said that Akira is absolute energy.
[1:11:41] ---
Absolute energy?
[1:11:44] ---
Humans do all kinds of
things during their lifetime, right?
[1:11:48] ---
Discovering things, building things...
[1:11:52] ---
Things like houses, motorcycles,
bridges, cities, and rockets...
[1:12:00] ---
All that knowledge and energy...
Where do you suppose it comes from?
[1:12:05] ---
Humans were like monkeys once, right?
[1:12:09] ---
And before that, like reptiles and fish.
[1:12:13] ---
And before that, plankton and amoebas.
[1:12:17] ---
Even creatures like those have
incredible energy inside them.
[1:12:21] ---
Because of genes, I guess.
[1:12:24] ---
And even before that, maybe
there were genes in the water and air.
[1:12:30] ---
Even in space dust, too, I bet.
[1:12:32] ---
If that's true, what
memories are hidden in it?
[1:12:37] ---
The beginning of the universe, maybe.
Or maybe even before that.
[1:12:41] ---
Hey, what's the matter? Are you okay?
[1:12:45] ---
Did you get hit on the head back there?
[1:12:47] ---
Maybe everyone has those memories.
[1:12:51] ---
What if there were some mistake
and the progression went wrong,
[1:12:54] ---
and something like an amoeba
were given power like a human's?
[1:13:00] ---
That's what Akira is?
[1:13:03] ---
Amoebas don't build houses and bridges.
[1:13:06] ---
They just devour all the food around them.
[1:13:09] ---
That's what Tetsuo's doing?
You're saying he has that kind of energy?!
[1:13:14] ---
A long time ago, there were people
who tried to control that power.
[1:13:18] ---
At the government's request, you see.
[1:13:21] ---
They failed, and it triggered
the Fall of Tokyo.
[1:13:26] ---
That power is still too much for--
[1:13:33] ---
What?!
[1:13:34] ---
The door's unlocked.
[1:13:39] ---
Huh?
[1:13:46] ---
This has got to be a trap.
[1:13:49] ---
Go back, then.
[1:13:50] ---
No, we ought to find out
how much of it is a trap...
[1:13:56] ---
By the way, what's
with you and that Ryu guy?
[1:14:01] ---
--What do you mean?
--You're always together.
[1:14:03] ---
That's none of your business!
[1:14:06] ---
What I'm saying is, he doesn't
know about us, does he?
[1:14:11] ---
"Us"?
[1:14:12] ---
Hey, wait a minute!
What's that supposed to mean?
[1:14:15] ---
Do you think this will work?
[1:14:17] ---
It can't be helped. At this point,
our only option is to use her.
[1:14:23] ---
The fact that she turned up right
under our noses says as much, I think.
[1:14:30] ---
I guess...
[1:14:45] ---
Have arrived at Ward 13,
East Ginza intersection. Over.
[1:14:50] ---
Northern District battalion has not
responded to mobilization request.
[1:14:53] ---
Special search team to HQ!
Special search team to HQ!
[1:14:56] ---
We're at the Haruki-ya snack bar
near the highway interchange in Ward 8.
[1:15:00] ---
It doesn't look like a bomb
explosion, so we think it was him.
[1:15:06] ---
It was almost certainly the work of
the subject that escaped from the lab.
[1:15:10] ---
Yes, sir! Yes, sir! Understood!
[1:15:19] ---
Kaneda!
[1:15:22] ---
What?! Yamagata's dead?!
[1:15:24] ---
Something seemed strange
about him from the second I saw him.
[1:15:27] ---
He was wearing what looked
like a white hospital gown.
[1:15:30] ---
It was like he was a different person.
[1:15:33] ---
Yamagata asked him
if he was really Tetsuo.
[1:15:38] ---
And then... Yamagata, he...
[1:15:45] ---
We've always been together.
[1:15:48] ---
I've known everything about him
[1:15:52] ---
since we were in the children's home.
[1:15:54] ---
He was a klutz, and
everybody made him cry.
[1:15:59] ---
Oh, right... He wanted to
know where your bike was.
[1:16:04] ---
My bike...?
[1:16:14] ---
What're you gonna do?
[1:16:17] ---
I'm gonna send Yamagata his bike.
[1:16:24] ---
You dumb bastard!
[1:16:29] ---
Kaneda!
[1:16:47] ---
Kei!
[1:16:49] ---
What's wrong?
[1:16:54] ---
You! You were there that night...
[1:17:01] ---
Wait!
[1:17:08] ---
Kei!
[1:17:13] ---
They disappeared!
[1:17:16] ---
You were the ones who
changed Tetsuo too, weren't you?
[1:17:20] ---
Akira's power exists within everyone.
[1:17:24] ---
Who's there?!
[1:17:27] ---
But when that power is awakened,
even if you weren't prepared for it,
[1:17:34] ---
you must choose how to use it.
[1:17:39] ---
And he has made his choice.
[1:17:44] ---
Tetsuo is our newest companion.
[1:17:49] ---
We're partly to blame for his actions.
[1:17:53] ---
Why did you take Kei, then?!
[1:17:57] ---
We want her to help us.
[1:17:59] ---
You can't just use people
like that! Bring Kei back!
[1:18:03] ---
Tetsuo's our friend! If anyone's
gonna kill him, it should be us!
[1:18:10] ---
Hey!
[1:18:12] ---
Damn it!
[1:18:14] ---
Mr. Omi and the other executives
have been arrested by the coup...?
[1:18:18] ---
Y-Yes, that's right.
[1:18:19] ---
The house guards are
fighting them right now.
[1:18:22] ---
Yes.
[1:18:23] ---
I'd like to have a helicopter
waiting at West Haneda.
[1:18:26] ---
Yes.
[1:18:28] ---
That damned Colonel...
I can't believe he's taken up arms.
[1:18:34] ---
I underestimated him.
[1:18:40] ---
Hold them here! Damn!
[1:19:13] ---
Mr. Nezu...
[1:19:15] ---
R-Ryu?! Is that you?
[1:19:18] ---
I'm sorry, sir...
[1:19:20] ---
The mission was a failure.
[1:19:23] ---
What are you doing here?!
[1:19:24] ---
I've told you, you can't be seen here!
[1:19:28] ---
All of my men...
[1:19:30] ---
They've all been killed.
[1:19:32] ---
Y-You sold me out,
didn't you, you bastard?!
[1:19:36] ---
What? You can't be--
[1:19:41] ---
Kei...
[1:19:48] ---
I got fresh fish in here, buddy!
I'm gonna get compensated for 'em, right?
[1:19:51] ---
Please, I have to catch a flight at noon!
[1:19:55] ---
What?
[1:19:57] ---
7th Avenue is just ahead!
[1:19:59] ---
It intersects this road 100 meters from here!
[1:20:05] ---
Prepare for battle!
[1:20:16] ---
Right, we've spotted the subject.
[1:20:19] ---
What? Attack?!
[1:20:22] ---
But he's just a... We're attacking a boy?!
[1:20:30] ---
Look! There he is!
[1:20:31] ---
Impossible!
[1:20:32] ---
Is this for real?
[1:20:41] ---
"Samurai Spirit"
[1:20:45] ---
Firing preparations complete.
[1:20:49] ---
Damn it! Fire!
[1:21:05] ---
--Akira!
- -It's Lord Akira!
[1:21:07] ---
It's the advent of Lord Akira!
[1:21:10] ---
That's not him! Don't be fooled!
[1:21:11] ---
That's not Lord Akira!
[1:21:13] ---
Shut up!
[1:21:15] ---
Long live Lord Akira!
[1:21:18] ---
Fire!
[1:21:20] ---
Huh?
[1:21:22] ---
What's wrong?
[1:22:50] ---
Neo Tokyo Broadcasting is
exclusively covering the news
[1:22:53] ---
in spite of martial law in the
name of freedom of the press!
[1:22:56] ---
What in the world is
happening here in Neo Tokyo?
[1:23:00] ---
What you see here seems to
be fires caused by tank cannons.
[1:23:03] ---
But who is this young boy?
[1:23:06] ---
Is he fighting the coup
forces all by himself?
[1:23:09] ---
Viewers, the army has just
illegally ordered us to land!
[1:23:16] ---
Freedom of the press is now in jeopardy!
[1:23:18] ---
What happened? Were they cut off?
[1:23:21] ---
The bridge! He's heading for the bridge!
[1:23:24] ---
Let's go see!
[1:23:42] ---
Are you really going alone?
[1:23:45] ---
He wants this, doesn't he?
[1:23:48] ---
We should call the gang together.
[1:23:52] ---
Hey!
[1:23:53] ---
I wouldn't want to keep him waiting.
[1:23:57] ---
Hey, Kaneda! Wait!
[1:24:06] ---
Half seem to be
anti-government demonstrators.
[1:24:09] ---
The rest are... Well, they're more
like some crazy cult than onlookers.
[1:24:13] ---
They're following after the subject,
and more and more keep coming.
[1:24:20] ---
Oh, flames of purity,
[1:24:24] ---
raze this corrupt city!
[1:24:26] ---
"We Worship the Great Lord Akira"
raze this corrupt city!
[1:24:27] ---
"We Worship the Great Lord Akira"
Consume our unclean hearts!
[1:24:32] ---
Fear not!
[1:24:35] ---
Your bodies will be purified in the flames!
[1:24:41] ---
Ready!
[1:24:45] ---
Fire!
[1:24:51] ---
Set the switch to hold for three
seconds and converge your beams!
[1:24:55] ---
Aim!
[1:24:56] ---
Fire!
[1:25:03] ---
Watch this!
[1:25:11] ---
Look out! Let's get out of here!
[1:25:24] ---
Help me!
[1:25:33] ---
Ground forces! Ground forces, come in!
[1:25:35] ---
Report! What is the subject's status?!
[1:25:37] ---
Ground forces!
[1:25:41] ---
Call the Doctor.
[1:25:43] ---
We have confirmation of his
recent movements and are in pursuit.
[1:25:46] ---
His present position is... Let's see...
[1:25:48] ---
Coordinates 99871 by 4332.
[1:25:54] ---
That's about 2 km south of the
Olympics construction site in the old city.
[1:25:57] ---
What?!
[1:26:04] ---
What was that?
[1:26:06] ---
Look!
[1:26:08] ---
That's near the toll booth that's
being guarded by the 2nd platoon.
[1:26:12] ---
Wha--?
[1:26:14] ---
Huh?
[1:26:18] ---
Please turn around!
This area's off limits to civilians!
[1:26:22] ---
What? That's the subject?!
[1:26:25] ---
S-Stop!
[1:26:26] ---
Stop, damn it!
[1:27:33] ---
Nice place you have here.
[1:27:43] ---
Wait, you were with Kaneda.
[1:27:46] ---
You shouldn't use your power this way.
[1:27:51] ---
What?
[1:27:52] ---
In the end, you won't be able to control it.
[1:27:57] ---
The kids...
[1:27:58] ---
You're those brats, aren't you?!
[1:28:18] ---
Okay, then...!
[1:28:42] ---
What the--?
[1:28:55] ---
It's not safe here, Colonel!
[1:29:37] ---
Well, what're you gonna do?
[1:31:06] ---
Open up!
[1:31:19] ---
What the hell?
[1:31:21] ---
That's Akira, Tetsuo!
[1:31:24] ---
That's the "Akira" you wanted to meet.
[1:31:27] ---
There's your Messiah!
[1:31:30] ---
After his transcendental awakening,
[1:31:33] ---
his body was subjected to
every test known to science.
[1:31:37] ---
And that's what was left of it.
[1:31:49] ---
"Cranial Nerve"
[1:31:50] ---
The scientists back then
were unable to solve the mystery,
[1:31:55] ---
so they decided to entrust their
collected data and test samples
[1:31:59] ---
to future generations by
preserving them in a frozen capsule.
[1:32:04] ---
SOL... We'll use SOL!
[1:32:06] ---
Sir?
[1:32:09] ---
Akira is already dead!
[1:32:12] ---
Well? Are you satisfied now, Tetsuo?
[1:32:20] ---
So come back with us!
[1:32:23] ---
Like hell!
[1:32:25] ---
Contact the central defense center
[1:32:27] ---
and tell them to patch us
through to SOL's control circuits!
[1:32:31] ---
Yes, sir!
[1:32:48] ---
Hey, watch it!
[1:32:50] ---
Damn it, move! Get out of the way!
[1:33:11] ---
What is this, science class?
[1:33:30] ---
What's wrong? Have some trouble?
[1:33:34] ---
Yeah, but I already took care of it.
[1:33:37] ---
If you were here earlier,
you could've watched the show.
[1:33:39] ---
You had me worried again.
[1:33:42] ---
I figured you'd be standing here,
sobbing like a little baby.
[1:33:46] ---
Kaneda, you've always
been a pain in the ass.
[1:33:50] ---
You've been telling me what
to do ever since we were kids.
[1:33:55] ---
You always treat me like a kid.
[1:33:57] ---
You always show up and
start bossing me around!
[1:34:00] ---
And now you're a boss, too...
[1:34:02] ---
Of this pile of rubble.
[1:34:04] ---
Kaneda!
[1:34:06] ---
That's Mister Kaneda to you, punk!
[1:34:08] ---
Die!
[1:34:20] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:34:45] ---
Son of a...
[1:35:01] ---
Kei!
[1:35:04] ---
Oh, hell!
[1:35:09] ---
Let's do it!
[1:35:22] ---
Got him!
[1:35:25] ---
Huh?
[1:35:31] ---
The battery?!
[1:35:32] ---
What's the matter, Kaneda?
[1:35:36] ---
God damn it! This ain't fair, Tetsuo!
[1:35:38] ---
Fight with your bare hands!
[1:35:43] ---
Oh, this is funny...
[1:35:46] ---
Feeling frustrated, Kaneda?
[1:35:49] ---
Now do you understand how it feels?
[1:35:58] ---
What's this light?
[1:36:11] ---
Well, did you hit him?
[1:36:12] ---
We're too close to the impact point.
There's too much electrical interference.
[1:36:15] ---
Prepare a second volley!
[1:36:40] ---
Hey! Kaneda!
[1:37:03] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:37:21] ---
Shit...
[1:37:23] ---
Huh?
[1:37:24] ---
What the--?
[1:38:01] ---
Correcting for tracking system error.
[1:38:03] ---
T-minus-20 to energy alteration.
[1:38:05] ---
--Fire extinguishers!
--Are you okay?
[1:38:06] ---
Hurry! Hurry!
[1:38:07] ---
What happened? What's going on?
[1:38:19] ---
Kaneda!
[1:38:22] ---
Kai! Kei!
[1:38:23] ---
--Kaneda!
- -Kaneda!
[1:38:25] ---
Get on!
[1:38:26] ---
Get on? Where?
[1:38:27] ---
Hurry! Hurry!
[1:38:51] ---
What's that?
[1:39:06] ---
They say it's SOL.
[1:39:19] ---
Magnificent...
[1:39:31] ---
When Tetsuo's power reaches its peak?
[1:39:35] ---
That's when we do it.
[1:39:37] ---
But will it work?
[1:39:40] ---
The future doesn't
proceed along a single course.
[1:39:45] ---
There ought to be a future we can choose.
[1:39:59] ---
What's Tetsuo's status?
[1:40:01] ---
Ah, Colonel...
[1:40:03] ---
We set up a camera in
the stadium a while ago.
[1:40:06] ---
We have him under observation.
[1:40:09] ---
Colonel, you must take a look at this data!
[1:40:14] ---
We're still analyzing the energy
given off by the subject, but...
[1:40:17] ---
It's magnificent. Absolutely magnificent.
[1:40:20] ---
This is clearly a proton collapse.
[1:40:23] ---
We're also detecting a fair number of
what we believe to be unknown particles.
[1:40:27] ---
If we can put this into a
theoretical framework, physics--
[1:40:30] ---
No, science...
[1:40:31] ---
Humanity itself could touch the
fundamental truths of the universe!
[1:40:37] ---
Oh. That's...
[1:40:39] ---
We still haven't finished
making our adjustments.
[1:40:41] ---
Uh, Colonel!
[1:40:48] ---
T-That's...!
[1:40:53] ---
You bastard! What did I tell you?!
[1:40:56] ---
B-But, Colonel!
[1:40:58] ---
I couldn't throw away
such a magnificent subject!
[1:41:02] ---
Shut up!
[1:41:26] ---
Shit! It's on fire!
[1:41:28] ---
The battery! The battery!
[1:41:29] ---
My bike! It's burning up!
[1:41:33] ---
Hey, what's a bike or two?
[1:41:35] ---
What? Then there's nothing
wrong with using yours, right?
[1:41:39] ---
You heard that?
[1:41:41] ---
Yeah, I did!
[1:41:42] ---
Hey, your bike's still on fire.
[1:42:25] ---
Tetsuo?
[1:42:39] ---
Tetsuo, why does
everyone call you "Akira"?
[1:42:43] ---
He never existed in the first place.
[1:42:47] ---
They didn't care who it was.
[1:42:52] ---
Just so long as he destroyed things.
[1:42:55] ---
Your arm!
[1:42:58] ---
It doesn't look like much,
but it works pretty good.
[1:43:04] ---
What's wrong? Are you okay?
[1:43:09] ---
It's nothing!
[1:43:11] ---
Tetsuo...
[1:43:12] ---
Shut up! Just go away!
[1:43:22] ---
Medicine...
[1:43:24] ---
What's wrong, Tetsuo? Are you in pain?
[1:43:27] ---
Go back to the lab and
get me some of that medicine!
[1:43:31] ---
Did you hear that, Doctor?
[1:43:33] ---
Yes, Colonel.
[1:43:34] ---
Well? Can you see any signs of it?
[1:43:37] ---
I'm not entirely certain,
[1:43:39] ---
but it seems that the power that had
been held back by the drugs is breaking free.
[1:43:44] ---
He may not be able to control
power that has awakened so suddenly.
[1:43:47] ---
At any rate, he's in an
extremely dangerous condition!
[1:43:51] ---
If you don't go back to the lab and
receive proper treatment, you may die.
[1:43:58] ---
You want me to enroll in that
kindergarten and live happily ever after?
[1:44:02] ---
Take my medicine every day
and shrivel up like those kids?!
[1:44:13] ---
Kaori... Kaori...
[1:44:17] ---
Please... I need that medicine...
[1:44:21] ---
No...!
[1:44:23] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:44:26] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:44:29] ---
Tetsuo--
[1:45:02] ---
Kaneda?!
[1:45:42] ---
Huh?
[1:45:50] ---
Son of a...
[1:45:56] ---
You kids... What are you doing here?
[1:46:04] ---
You never learn, do you?
[1:46:09] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:46:25] ---
Takashi...
[1:46:29] ---
Akira...
[1:46:30] ---
"Optic Nerve"
[1:46:44] ---
Kaneda...? H-Help me...!
[1:46:57] ---
Kaori...
[1:47:02] ---
Help me...!
[1:47:16] ---
Help me!
[1:47:18] ---
Stop it!
[1:47:37] ---
Kaori?
[1:47:38] ---
Kaori! Kaori!
[1:47:41] ---
Tetsuo? Is that you, Tetsuo?!
[1:47:44] ---
Kaori! Kaori's gonna die!
[1:47:47] ---
What?! What did you say?!
[1:47:50] ---
My body's not doing what I tell it to!
[1:47:52] ---
My power's acting on its own...!
[1:47:55] ---
Kaori!
[1:47:57] ---
Kaori's dying!
[1:48:00] ---
Kaneda, help me!
[1:48:02] ---
Stop, Tetsuo!
[1:48:04] ---
Stop it!
[1:48:06] ---
Kaori's pain is coming into me...!
[1:48:12] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:48:14] ---
Kaneda! Run away!
[1:48:31] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:48:45] ---
Kiyoko! Takashi! Masaru! Get away from here!
[1:48:53] ---
Come on!
[1:49:01] ---
I can't believe it. It's as if--
[1:49:16] ---
Kiyoko! Taka--
[1:49:54] ---
Hi,
[1:49:56] ---
Akira.
[1:50:06] ---
Th-This is...
[1:50:09] ---
But that's--Oh, no!
[1:50:21] ---
W-Where am I?
[1:50:24] ---
Hurry! Get into the tunnel!
[1:50:26] ---
You'll be safe in there.
[1:50:27] ---
Kiyoko! Where are you?
[1:50:44] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:50:46] ---
Kaneda!
[1:50:49] ---
Hang on!
[1:50:52] ---
If you don't get out of here now, you'll--
[1:50:53] ---
Out of the way!
[1:50:55] ---
Tetsuo!
[1:50:56] ---
Don't go!
[1:51:05] ---
No, Takashi!
[1:51:07] ---
If you went in now, you'd be trapped, too.
[1:51:11] ---
But none of this is his fault!
[1:51:22] ---
--Takashi!
- -Takashi!
[1:51:31] ---
If we went in, we wouldn't be
strong enough to come back out.
[1:51:38] ---
But if the three of us worked together,
maybe we could at least save that boy.
[1:51:43] ---
You're right.
[1:51:44] ---
Together, the three of us could...
[1:51:55] ---
Oh, man...!
[1:51:57] ---
We should get out of here. Hey!
[1:52:01] ---
Kaneda...
[1:52:35] ---
Look, you're not revving your engine enough.
[1:52:39] ---
When you go into a corner, lean like
you're trying to kill yourself. Watch!
[1:52:42] ---
What're you doing?
[1:52:44] ---
Cornering, man.
[1:52:47] ---
Got it, Tetsuo...?
[1:52:56] ---
Look, there's another one!
[1:52:57] ---
--Another transfer student?
--He was abandoned.
[1:53:00] ---
You can see it in his face.
[1:53:06] ---
Are... Are these your dreams, Tetsuo?
[1:53:12] ---
Wait!
[1:54:31] ---
This is Akira...?
[1:54:34] ---
Yes. We called him.
[1:54:37] ---
To have him take Tetsuo away.
[1:54:40] ---
Take him away? Take him where?
[1:54:43] ---
It's too much for Tetsuo.
[1:54:45] ---
And for us. And for Akira.
[1:54:49] ---
It's too big for us as we are now.
[1:54:53] ---
But someday, we'll also be able to...
[1:54:57] ---
You see, it's already begun.
[1:55:00] ---
Your friend's--
[1:55:02] ---
My friend?
[1:55:05] ---
Kei! You mean Kei, don't you?
[1:55:34] ---
Tetsuo...
[1:55:40] ---
This is yours, right?
[1:55:48] ---
They're always like that with the
new kids. You came today, right?
[1:55:52] ---
They beat me up, too.
[1:55:54] ---
But the truth is, those guys are wimps.
[1:55:57] ---
I'm Tetsuo. Tetsuo Shima.
[1:56:03] ---
To tell you the truth,
I just got here myself.
[1:56:06] ---
I'm--
[1:56:08] ---
Kaneda...
[1:56:11] ---
Kaneda?
[1:56:13] ---
Kaneda!
[1:56:14] ---
Kei?
[1:56:41] ---
W-What's happening?
What in the world is happening?
[1:56:47] ---
B-But this isn't...
[1:56:49] ---
If this is correct, it's almost as if...
Is this the birth of a universe?!
[1:57:00] ---
Kei!
[1:57:09] ---
What happened?
[1:57:13] ---
It's disappearing...! It's disappearing!
[1:58:26] ---
Kaneda!
[1:58:52] ---
Tetsuo...
[1:58:56] ---
Kaneda...
[1:58:59] ---
Thanks.
[1:59:02] ---
You called to me, right? I heard you.
[1:59:12] ---
Kaneda, don't tell me you're...
[1:59:15] ---
What about Tetsuo?
[1:59:18] ---
He left.
[1:59:21] ---
So did those three kids.
[1:59:23] ---
Akira, too.
[1:59:24] ---
Kaneda, back then, you...
[1:59:28] ---
Kaneda! You're alive?!
[1:59:33] ---
I thought you were in there for sure!
[1:59:40] ---
Tetsuo...
[1:59:41] ---
What happened to Tetsuo?
[1:59:44] ---
Is he dead?!
[1:59:45] ---
I'm not so sure. But he's probably...
[2:00:14] ---
But someday, we'll also be able to...
[2:00:18] ---
You see, it's already begun.
[2:00:40] ---
I am... Tetsuo.
[2:00:43] ---
