FAP-35 Akira

Akira is a classic movie that is well worth the watch as long as you are an adult. It deals heavily with politics, corruption, and loss of faith in the system while lightly touching on religion and science.


Next Up: Katsugeki/Touken Ranbu


If you’ve watched Akira or any of the past picks, even if you just barely survived one of them, we wanna hear about it. Rants, hot takes, cursed recommendations, bring it on! If there’s something you’ve been meaning to throw at us, something wild or weird or just your personal favorite, toss it our way.
