"WE'VE SEEN THAT MOVIE TOGETHER HOLDING HANDS SO MANY TIMES..." SAID THE CUB EYES UP.
"C'MON. EXPLAIN SOMETHING. I JUST SEE PUNKS IN MOTORCYCLES AND FREAKS WITH OVER-DEVELOPED PSICHOKINETIC POWERS"
"MIKE, YOU DID WENT TO COLLEGE. YOU ARE SMART"
"I DID NOT STUDY ART... IT'S NOT THE SAME THING"
"YOU CANNOT FIGURE OUT FOR YOURSELFE, SUGARPIE???"
"AS YOUR BOYFRIEND, I COMMAND YOU TO EXPLAIN ME ABOUT AKIRA"
"FINE!!! VATER BRUDER SOHN!!!"
"EXPLAIN PLEASE???"
"IT'S ABOUT EVOLUTION. WELL. AFTEH HIROSHIMA JAPANESE PEOPLE NEED TO EXPRESS ALL THAT SHIT THROUGH THEIR POP CULTURE. THAT'S WHY SOMETIMES YOU READ A MANGA OR SEE AN ANIME AND SAY... THIS IS SO SHOCKING!!! WHEN THEY NEED TO EXPRESS THAT TO TAKE THE SHIT OUT THEMSELVES, SO THERE ARE A LOT OF EXPRESSIONISM IN MANGA AND ANIME. TO BEGIN WITH"
"CONTINUE, CONTINUE!!!"
"WELL. IN AKIRA SOME CHILDREN WERE CHOSEN TO ENTER AN EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM TO DEVELOP ESP, AND THELEKINETIC POWERS, THE 90% OF THE BRAIN WE DON'T USE, I GUESS. THEY WERE SUPPOSSED TO WORK AS BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS. BUT AS IT WAS AN EXPERIMENT IT WENT OUT OF CONTROL"
"I GET IT, I GET IT"
"AKIRA WAS THE MOST SPECIAL KID. HE DID UNVELIEVABLE THINGS. THAT'S WHY SCIENTISTS WOULD EXPERIMENT WITH HIM THE MOST. THE RESULT: HE BECAME PURE ENERGY AND THEY COULD NOT CONTROL HIM. MAKING WITH HIS POWER AN UNVOLUNTARY EXPLOSION SIMILAR TO A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION"
"AND THEN?"
"IF I'M NOT WRONG, 20 YEARS OR SO PASS. IT WAS TOLD THE EXPLOSION WAS AN ATTACK AND THERE WAS A WAR ABOUT IT. NOBODY TOLD THAT AKIRA WENT OUT OF CONTROL. THE OTHER CHILDREN NEVER GREW UP, BUT WENT OLD DUE TO THE EXPERIMENTS"
"AND?"
"THEY TOOK A PUNK WITH A LOT OF PSICHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS, CAUSE HE HAD THE ABILITY TO OVERPOWER AKIRA, SO THEY EXPERIMENTED WITH HIM: TETSUO. HE HAD TO TAKE MEDICINES TO CONTROL HIMSELF. BUT HE STOPS TAKING MEDICINES AND GOES OUT OF CONTROL, AS HIS MIND WAS UNSTABLE, HE DID A LOT OF VIOLENT THINGS WITH HIS POWER, LIKE KILLING A LOT OF PEOPLE, DESTROYING A BRIDGE... AMONG OTHERS. AT SOME POINT HE FIGURES OUT THAT AKIRA HAS MORE POWER. AND """FLIES""" TO SEEK FOR HIM"
"AND WHERE WAS AKIRA?"
"UNDER A STADIUM. AT ABSOLUT ZERO TEMPERATURE. BUT IN A CAPSULE. WHEN TETSUO OPENS IT, HE FINDS BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES OF THE BODY OF AKIRA, AND IS TOLD THAT THOSE SAMPLES IN CRISTAL TUBES ARE AKIRA AFTER THE WHOLE EXPERIMENTS MADE ON HIM"
"WHAT???"
"THEN TETSUO LOSES TOTAL CONTROL OVER HIS SUPER POWER. SO THE BLUE CHILDREN THAT WERE ONCE FRIENDS OF AKIRA AND PART OF THE SAME EXPERIMENTS, START TO CALL AKIRA. THE GLASS TUBES BRAKE AND AKIRA APPEARS. AND USES HIS POWER, MAKING AN EXPLOSION LIKE LONG TIME AGO. THE BLUE CHILDREN JOIN AKIRA, AND TETSUO, AND THEY SAY THEY WOULD COME BACK ONE DAY"
"???"
"BECAUSE EVOLUTION PROCESS HAD STARTED. AND IN THE END ALL PEOPLE WOULD BE LIKE AKIRA. WELL. THIS IS ABOUT ARTIFICIAL EVOLUTION AND TRANSHUMANISM. OF COURSE WHEN EVERYBODY GETS """AKIRA""" STATUS, EVOLUTION PROCESS IS SUPPOSSED TO FIND A WAY TO MAKE US BE ABLE TO CONTROL THAT PROCESS, AND OVERALL... THAT POWER."
"THAT'S ALL"
"YY---EAAAH!!!"
"DON'T YOU LIE TO ME CUB!!!"
"BUT YOU UNDERSTOOD SOMETHING???"
"EH... KINDA? NOT EVERYTHING..."
"THEN... WHY YOU WANT TO HEAR MORE??? I'LL TOTALLY LOSE MY TIME"
THIS GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
