I wanted to watch this with my younger brother, but I didn't know if it was kid friendly. Violence, Scary scene, and Blood is fine. we both like the Conjuring films! My mine concern is Sexual content and Strong Language.
I share this clip from an ultra-rare VHS that a friend from Bulgaria donated to us, it is based on the Japanese dubbing
The next step will be to digitize our tapes with the vhs-decode, we are researching to obtain the equipment, and thus be able to preserve the film as it deserves, when the project is finished it will be made public. I take this opportunity to ask everyone who has original home formats and TV recordings in vhs, laserdisc, vcd, dvds, digital formats, streaming or others, to please write to me, each contribution will add to the preservation project we are doing, or In any case, any contact that can provide us with information or material, whether donated, lent, rented or purchased.

▫️ NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan JAPBD 4K Hypersonic Japanese 5.1 audio will be parsed with the UKBD or JAPBD Japanese Hypersonic 5.1 audio (not the remastered version). Hydra told us that these audios are superior to what we have found.
▫️ We have found better audios from Hungarian dub, Polish voice-over, Thai dub & a new better quality audio capture of the Spanish (Mexico) dub4 (2019).
▫️ We received the Cantonese dub from Hong Kong laserdisc Laser-Video Entertainment Ltd HKLD [LVMW 0149] & the Bulgarian Island World Video BULVHS voice-over.
▫️ The Czech audio we initially got in AAC has been replaced with a new capture in PCM. We were also surprised by the existence of a Ukrainian voice-over.
▫️ We got the original audios of the Rescore: Humaniac, The Firmamente & The Disco Biscuits. We only need the Vortex score, which has already told us that it will send us a digital copy without loss of quality.
▫️ Makata will share his capture from Spanish (Mexico) dub3 (1999) (Locomotion).
▫️ Music & effects 2.0 from SPADVD and 5.1 from ITABD will be extracted, this will be a 2.0 version, with better quality.
▫️ The first dubbing (Argentine) will be captured from the VHS Plus with better conditions and tools, it will include a new restoration of our MrQesito.
▫️ We made comparisons of all the audios, to define the best, some examples: https://slow.pics/c/WkD9OWf0 | https://slow.pics/c/hrcuSwX7
▫️ Korean dubbing is lost media: https://namu.wiki/w/AKIRA
WHERE WE NEED INFORMATION AND/OR SUPPORT (contact me, everything counts)
▫️ We still can't find out, about the two Cantonese dubbing, which was the original dubbing and which was the redoubling, we don't know who dubbed it or when it was made: https://youtu.be/TAUJ_Yiql0Y.
▫️ We are always happy to receive or learn about VHS, Laserdisc, VCD, or others, in any language, that contain better audio quality than what we have or subtitles.

<p>It's bit confusing regarding what Akira collections are out there and what collects what. The series was originally published in Japan in chapters in a magazine called 週刊ヤングマガジン (<i>Weekly Young Magazine</i>), over the span of eight years. It was then collected in 6 Volumes by the publisher 株式会社講談社 (<i>Kodansha</i>). These were all <i>black and white</i> editions.
</p><p>It was first published in English by Epic which was an imprint of <i>Marvel Comics </i>between 1988 and 1996. This was published in what is called<i> prestige format</i> (higher quality paper square bound and longer than a typical comic but shorter than a trade paperback or graphic novel). There were 38 issues in the Epic run and color was added by Steve Oliff who was an early innovator in digital coloring. Epic Collected the English color run in 10 T<i>rade Paperbacks</i> (and industry term for collections of comics in book form) and those were collected in 5 Hardcover Volumes in a partnership between Epic and Graffiti Designs. The trade paperbacks and hardcovers only published the first 31 issues so there were 7 of the Epic issues that were not collected in book form. The comics and trades by Epic are the only versions to date, in any language, that featured full color. So the only way the full color version of the end of the story is available are in those last 7 issues by Epic. By the time those issues were published American interest in the title had declined and with some of the issues published years after the issues before. So the print run was lower every issue making the end of the series in color very rare. The high grade copy of the last issue (#38) gets well over $100 on the second hand market.
</p><p><i>Dark Horse Comics</i> later released the series in 6 Black and White English Volumes (as they are collected in Japan). They were released in the UK by <i>Titan</i>.
</p><p>What I don't know and would like to know is which issues of the Epic series corresponds to the Epic trade paperbacks or what Epic issues correspond to the 6 black and white volumes by Dark Horse. If anyone has that information it would be appreciated. If I can collect that informations myself I'll edit it into this post.

<p>With the talk of ESP, there will come the talk of what one could if they had the power. What would you do if you had telepathy or telekinesis? Or some other psychic power?

<p>So far, there's only been the books and movie, but not a cartoon series. Is it even possible?

<p>MANGA:
</p><p>There was a doctor in the crygenic lab. He was a young man.
</p><p>He appears in Volume 2 and fights Ryu (not sure if he fights Ryu, but I am sure that he fights with someone).
</p><p>Who was he? and what are his whereabouts?

<p>I know that she died in the anime film, but I don't know about the manga; I never read it. Is she still alive in the manga?
