Lady Miyoko reveals Kei is a powerful medium and can be used as a conduit for the other Espers, to which Kei agrees to help. Akira Volume 5". Random House. Archived from the original on April 26, 2011 . Retrieved August 29, 2014.

Also the drugs that made Tetsuo become psychic and develop his abilities somehow stunt his full psychic potential. Nothing makes sense. It’s incredibly challenging to write interesting and engaging preliminary battles and conflicts like this, but Otomo accomplishes it all brilliantly. This volume also ties together most of the hanging story threads and fills in the remaining gaps in exposition. Kei has firmly and confidently taken center stage as the book’s actual protagonist (Kaneda is just a predictable, if charismatic, hot-head). Otomo also juggles the many different forces in play, keeping them urgent and mutually menacing while also orchestrating the complex plotting and characterization of a long and detailed story.

The changes the Anime adaptation has made, were not only needed but necessary and one of the rare cases that a movie adaptation outshines the Source material! There aren’t many mangas that successfully changed the game as Akira did. This Japanese cyberpunk series written and illustrated by mangaka Katsuhiro Otomo from 1982 to 1990 has managed to open the eyes of many creators on the ways that a story could be told through this particular medium. With the release of the 1988 anime movie based on Akira, the visionary direction of mangaka Katshurio Otomo allowed his franchise to reach fans all around the world as they welcomed this masterpiece into their lives and allowed it to change their perception of visual storytelling. So far in the manga, the story has brilliantly evolved into a symbolic exploration of life through pain, destruction, and rebirth. While touching upon various ideologies, the story depicts a tragedy unfolding in the hands of children condemned to carry around a tremendous burden as they try to survive a fateful calamity. When he comes onto the runway Kei stands waiting for him. She fights him as Miyako, Kiyoko, and Masaru speak to her mind, teaching her how to channel their powers while in the battle. The moment before Tetsuo throws a plane into her by telepathy, she opens her eyes in Miyako's chamber. The four of them sit in meditation. She had been there only in spirit.
