Akira

Animated epic set in a Japan of the future presided over by marauding gangs of bikers and rebels trying to overthrow the government.

The feud pales into insignificance when doctors discover that Tetsuo possesses devastating psychic abilities similar to a little boy called Akira, who destroyed Tokyo decades before.
