Artistically it is not bad, but to me story is everything and in regards to storytelling Akira is lacking, IMHO. I do not regret watching it (it is relatively short anyway), and perhaps it is worth watching even if only for cultural awareness, as it was once so popular that people in Australia would go to cinemas to watch it again, more than once. It's not without charm if it had that effect on people. But yours truly is anime snob who is pleased only with the very best. ;)
