Anime Nite Orlando Double Feature! Akira x Redline (3/21)


Propeller Anime celebrates SIX years at Bikkuri Lounge with a big Double Feature: Takeshi Koike's REDLINE, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary, and Katsuhito Otomo's AKIRA, which takes place in the year 2019.


SPECIAL START TIME 7:00PM!


AKIRA description from ANN Encyclopedia:
In the year 2019, thirty-one years have passed since the outbreak of World War III. In Neo-Tokyo, all authority is waging a never-ending struggle against the underground that virtually rules the shattered city. A top-secret child with amazing powers of the minds breaks free from custody and accidentally gets a motorcycle gang involved in the project. The incident triggers psychic powers within one of the members, Tetsuo, and he is taken by the army and experimented on. His mind has been warped and is now on the path of war, exacting revenge on the society that once called him weak.



REDLINE description from ANN Encyclopedia:
Every 5 years the race called "Redline" is held at a surprise location revealed shortly before the race begins. This time around it's being held on Roboworld, much to the dismay of Roboworld's militant government which has no intention of allowing the race to proceed. The race has no rules—whoever crosses the Redline first, wins. Sweet JP is a rare breed of racer who prefers retro style and raw power over high tech gadgets and weaponry. Troubled by their involvement with the mob, Sweet JP and his team just want a clean shot at winning the race. Sonoshee McLaren is a skilled and highly competitive rising star in the racing circuit. She beat JP in the last qualifier and caught his eye. Up against lethal hostility from Roboworld's government and their fellow racers, JP and Sonoshee are pushed to their limits in the race for the Redline.
