about

31 years ago today, a singularity destroyed Tokyo.

This is a remix tribute of Akira (1988). As we’ve hit the year and presumably the day this story takes place, I’ve decided to create a remix of the score/audio in tribute. If you haven’t seen this movie, please purchase and watch it.

lyrics

here's the translation of the various lines i included:

kiyoko: you mustn’t let that boy go…

kiyoko: his power, it…

kiyoko: …and we met akira again…

kiyoko: akira!!

takashi: (yelling)

kaneda: what are you doing to my friend?!?!

tetsuo (kaneda’s friend): (laughing)

tetsuo: let’s goooo!

tetsuo: i won’t be needing you to save me anymore. from now on, i’ll be saving you.

tetsuo: (laughing)

kiyoko: …the city will crumble…

kiyoko: …and so many people will die…

akira: akira!!

tetsuo: I DON’T KNOW WHO THAT IS!!!

kaneda: dammit tetsuo, this isn’t fair! fight me with your bare hands!

tetsuo: (laughing)

tetsuo: stay away from me!!

kaneda: who the hell do you think you’re talking to??

tetsuo: hey, kaneda! what are you gonna do about it?!
