Akira Main Character Map

another translation, this time of the character map from the AKIRA WORLD Hot Dog Press/Young Magazine special edition. I've wanted to do a full TL of the magazine eventually, but haven't found the time so I only did the CYOA game until now. However someone requested this so here it is. Nothing really new or exciting, but some of the character descriptions are funny, especially Kaneda's...

(sorry for my trash scans, if anyone can provide a better quality i would love you<3)

More under the cut !

Neo Tokyo Government

Don't think of anything but their own self-protection. A shameful bunch. Only one of them, the Colonel, is seriously thinking of what to do about “AKIRA”. An organization that gives a look at what the government will become in the near future(?). None of them understand the power of “AKIRA”, and none try to.

Masaru (Number 27)

Although not as strong as Takashi’s, he definitely has psychic powers. Like Kiyoko, he can’t walk on his own and sits in a baby chair, but he has the power to levitate so he can act on his own to some extent.

Kiyoko (Number 25)

She has excellent precognitive abilities, and foretold Akira’s awakening. Unable to walk on her own, she’s always laying in her capsule bed. She is like a madonna figure for Takashi and Masaru. She also can be said to be leader of the two of them.

Takashi (Number 26)

One of the residents of the Colonel’s lab. He has strong psychic powers. Mistaken for Akira and kidnapped by the revolutionary army, he was walking in the middle of the road in Neo Tokyo when he came into contact with Tetsuo.

Dr.

Chief researcher of the Colonel’s lab. He is the one who is in charge of Akira, who rests in a frozen capsule. A stereotypical academic type, he also has an idealistic side. In one scene, the Colonel called him a ‘romanticist’.

Colonel

Commander in chief of the country’s top secret ‘Akira Plan’. For the purpose of executing this plan, he manages a lab (research facility) where Takashi, Kiyoko and Masaru live. Kiyoko’s prophecy confirms that Akira will awaken, and he demands an outrageous budget to prevent this from happening. He plays the role of “a dependable soldier”.

Kaneda's Bike Team

Self proclaimed delinquent boys in excellent health, a group who does whatever they want. They’re so popular among bad boys, they even have groupies somehow. On very bad terms with the drug addicted Clown Team, they have a strong sense of team unity.

Tetsuo

While driving wild on the highway with Kaneda and the gang late at night, he comes into contact with Takashi. This awakens an unknown power in him, and he even turns against Kaneda, his friend since their days at the children’s home. It's pretty thought-provoking that a guy who was withdrawn until now suddenly gets a big attitude......?

Kaori

Tetsuo’s girlfriend. She stays by Tetsuo’s side when his psychic powers awaken, and is a pure, innocent beautiful(?) girl, which is rare these days.

Yamagata

The team’s second in command, he takes the role of special attack leader. However, he meets a tragic end as he is killed by Tetsuo who’s started to go berserk. This ignites Kaneda’s desire for revenge!

Kaneda

The team leader. He gets wrapped up in the conflict between the revolutionaries and the army surrounding Akira. A super toughguy with the lifeforce of a cockroach.

Kai

He doesn’t stand out much in the team, but plays an important role helping Kaneda in the latter half of the story. Dresses himself in tasteful trad fashion, but is simple at heart.

People's Revolutionary Army

An organized terrorist group, in a manner of speaking. They control things politically behind the scenes and are at Nezu's beck and call. In pursuit of the secret of Akira, their clashes with the Colonel-led army are a daily occurrence. They are a considerably large scale organization.

Kei

A strong-minded, beautiful girl with combat ability and initiative. She met Kaneda while escaping a failed attempt to take back Akira. They make for a unique odd couple, but unfortunately never had a ♡ scene.

Ryuu

A leader of the People’s Revolutionary Army. One of the few people who knows Akira’s true identity. He attempts to take back Akira under Nezu’s orders, but what will happen!?

Nezu

Leader of a party that is in opposition to the current administration. Behind the scenes, he manipulates Ryu’s guerrilla organization in an attempt to obtain Akira. Textbook example of a scheming politician. As his name suggests, he’s a nasty, sly rat-like man.

Clowns

Joker

Boss of the murderous motorcycle gang, the Clowns. In a massive brawl with Kaneda’s team, he sent many people to the hospital using his huge body and superhuman strength. However, he has a total weakness in the brains department.

Other

Miyako-sama

Founder of a new religion whose influence is growing in Neo Tokyo. Nezu is an ardent believer of this religion. She is powerful enough to foresee the disaster that would be caused by Akira, but in the anime she was sadly changed to just a pathetic praying old lady. However in the original work she is a powerful person rivalling Akira.

Oooooh boy, any headcanons about Sakura and Ryuji together?

So for Sakura, I’d say she acts as a vigilante throughout the story, awakening her persona during Kamoshida’s Palace at a time before Akira showed up. She was outnumbered at some point but had dealt a decent amount of damage on her own which is what causes Kamoshida’s shadow to run scared when Akira’s persona awakens to protect himself and Ryuji. When she plans to go out again to defeat him, the Palace is GONE and she is confused lol

They accidentally run into each other while he’s meeting at his ‘secret training’ spot and it’s super awkward because they’re both doing their own thing in absolute silence. Ryuji inevitably breaks the ice by asking her questions about herself.She was kicked from the girls volleyball club’s roster due to Kamoshida so they bond over bitching about him. After a time, they really come to trust each other and he accidentally let’s it slip (something small) about the Phantom Thieves. He tries to save himself by playing dumb but it’s too late now and he’s forced to come clean to the group. Sakura inevitably comes clean too and admits that she’s been watching them (not like Akechi lol) and that she really admired the Phantom Thieves and – after a quick meeting with Ryuji vouching for her – they welcome her aboard. Probably before Futaba’s Palace.During battles he’s super protective even though she can take care of herself just fine lolAlso, she’s always trying to correct his slouch and he ALWAYS whines about it.Her friends at school warn her about him being a delinquent which upsets him but she insists he’s a good person. It gets him all fuzzy inside and that’s when he knows he likes her.Their first date is at Leblanc and he’s so fucking nervous he spills his cup of coffee. Sojiro is just trying to mind his own business and the protagonist was exiled to his room until Sakura had to leave to go home then Ryuji runs upstairs to tell him EVERYTHING.He showers her with confidence even if someone does the same thing, Sakura does it ‘better’!He’s super into PDA too so the others get embarrassed by whatever he feels like doing that day.

Character childhoods, historical events etc.

hiiii Akira tumblr, I haven't been around here much but here's a translation I did. I've never seen this full timeline translated anywhere, so maybe it'll be of interest !😳

Tetsuo - Born in July. His father born 1980 (age 25). His mother born 1981 (age 24). In 1984, as part of the Akira Project, experiments were conducted on children around the age of 10, and genetic manipulation was (secretly) performed on newly born children. The effects of this skipped a generation and manifested in Tetsuo… and are gradually beginning to show in other children.(His grandfather was a genetic engineer. He participated in the Project.

Colonel age 32 - He is appointed commander of the nation's top secret 'Akira Plan' as Colonel. (The 'Akira Plan' began 3 years after Akira's awakening in 1988, when the US began investigating, and in 1996 it was turned over to the Japanese government. Since then, despite organization of records and repeated experiments, there hasn't been much progress. This may be why the US let go of it….) The heads of government began to feel threatened by the Colonel's excessively growing power, so even though it was a top national secret, they appointed him to this do-nothing position to force him to withdraw from the front lines, as a means of dismissal. …As for why the Colonel resigned himself to this sinecure, perhaps it's because he was seeking answers about his father's death, or trying to fulfill his father's dying wish, or maybe he himself saw potential in this investigation…. There are various possibilities, but one can only speculate.
