Akira Volume 5

Akira is where the scale is humongous and it just gets bigger and bigger. The story closes in on its finale. The artwork of Katsuhiro Otomo is just blew up my mind!!! I mean you have to roll your eyes atleast couple of times through each of the panel. The buildings and cables and wires are drawn very well. The colour pages are awesome too. Akira is perhaps the most influential and dynamic work manga industry will ever get! It never felt like a 1980's manga when I read it. It was miles ahead of it's time and its safe to say that it still is... Very complicated concept yet brilliantly explained in the story to make everyone understand. Katsuhiro Otomo is downright a God when it comes to manga! Most mangakas in Japan who are successful today are partially because of this man's genius. What else do you expect from a single six volume epic?...
