Review: Una increíble continuación de la parte 3, muy recomendable, es súper ágil y los dibujos son increíbles
Review: Another action packed Volume! In volume 3 we see Akira show off his power by leveling Tokyo... again. In Volume 4, We pick up a little while after, where we see the people of Tokyo divided in 2 factions, those who worship the mysterious number 19 and those who worship poor little Akira and his maniacal assistant Tetsuo. Luckily, it seems all the major players survived the destruction except poor Kaneda. Kei really shines in this volume and goes from being a pretty solid character to probably being my favorite character yet. She is tough and ready to take command, even willing to stand up against the wise number 19's direct orders. Chiyoko is, once again, one of the toughest characters and the source of a lot of the volumes action. The Espers also survived the destruction but are in critical condition (a lot of the volume is devoted to getting them to a safe place or getting them the proper medicine they need). Tetsuo seems to have a firm grip over his fanatical followers and also seems to speak for Akira... although cute little Akira seems to just want to live the normal life of an average child. In one of the more interesting aspects of the volume, we see Akira mentally abuse Tetsuo and force him to confront his addiction to the pills that suppress his power. He tries to kick the habit but it is evident that this could mean bad news for the survivors of Neo-Tokyo. Other characters like the Colonel, Ryu and a very welcome survivor from Kaneda and Tetsuo's biker gang all get plenty of screen time (or panel time, I suppose?). We are introduced to many new and interesting characters as well, like, the mysterious psychic with the eyeball on his head that seems to show up at all the wrong times. Tetsuo's personal assistant whose stupidity will ultimately trigger the volume's explosive climax. Plenty of new psychics and a couple 'tough as nails' members of the American Naval fleet, sent in to investigate the chaos. But perhaps most interesting of all is a motherly character that is introduced, she is caring and seems to have the ability to calm both Akira and Tetsuo when their powers start to overtake them. There are plenty of battles, revelations and of course, massive scenes of destruction that have become a staple in the series by now. I have said more than I should have so I will leave it at this... This is the best volume so far!. any lack of plot/character development from volume three is made-up ten fold in this edition. There is lots to take in this volume, not only in the fact that so many new characters and plot points are introduced but also in the fact that this volume seems to change the tone of the series entirely, but Mr. Otomo makes it so its easy to follow and never feels overwhelming. To me, the series just keeps getting better and better, I cant wait to see what insanity is introduced in the next to volumes!

If you only read one Manga Akira is THE one to go for. All six volumes are awesome. The amazing detail, flawed characters, the sense of movement in the action and the frankly HUGE story. The anime is a masterpiece but only really scratches the surface really. All six volumes are to be devoured then reread annually! I always get something out of each revisit whether it's just flicking through or reading properly. Otomo is a true auteur. Love it!
