The DVD I have (2001 Pioneer/Ani-maze dub release) had English credits. After the English credits, it rolled credits of the English dub with Tokyo Shoe Shine Boy playing. It's new to me to hear the motorcycle sound at the end other than the sound of what I imagine as a vault closing.
To be honest with you, I was hoping that the Japanese ending credits would be restored and edited back onto the original Japanese film print for the North American 4K Blu-ray release, so that we can watch AKIRA (1988) in its original theatrical release from Japan. But it’s only included in the bonus features while we still have the English ending credits as part of the movie. So we’ll have to wait a few more years until a new North American 4K Blu-ray release will be a restored and remastered Japanese film print with the original Japanese credits restored as well. It will be a true miracle someday and I hope someday there will be a live-action Japanese movie of AKIRA waiting to come to us!😁👍
My theory is that Otomo simply prefers the English credits, as there's no reason why they would keep using those for every re-release when the Japanese credits are perfectly available (and included)!
@@LogosAndStuff I agree, Otomo being a cinephile that was deeply influenced by 60s and 70s American films probably made him prefer the English credits.
I agree, and the only very very little difference between the 2 versions of the end credits is in the Japanese credits there is that little police siren at the end.
Akira helped usher in the Anime craze to the west, but it was inevitably going to happen eventually. Akira just sped it up. But Akira is no doubt very important. Dragon ball was being made before Akira the film came out. It's not really fair to say there would be no DBZ without Akira.
@@cgbreeki849 The closest possible way is to look for a REALLY early VHS copy of the movie. I believe out there, there's a VHS screener from the 1990s with the Japanese text and credits.
当時映画館で観たんですが、エンドロール流れてる中で後ろに座ってた女の子が急に立ち上がって「誰か説明して－ーー」って叫び出したのを思い出します。「俺もわからん」って思いながらエンドロールみてたよね🤣

Wonderful , I was there in theater at 1988 with 18 years old and It was incredible!
I was born 12 years later, but I saw this for the first time at cinema 1 week ago, it was my birthday
@@Ghinghi2000 A great experience!
@@chenper yes, I love that soundtrack
At the japanese theater?
I was 20 (1991), in Brazil. The kanji and all the other stuff were incredibly mesmerizing.
"I Am Tetsuo."
Bokuwa
tetsuo
Goosebumps all over.
This is burnt into my mind from the early 90s, and it's completely deserved.

アキラ、これを超える作品無いな！
Best anime movie ever made.
There are many. Time and space mean different things to us all... but I share this specific point as incredibly special to me.
無から宇宙が誕生したシーンですね。
超絶神曲‼️
よくこんな曲を作れるよ‼️
(褒め言葉)異常だよ‼️
この絶妙な音割れ具合が昭和最末期の映画の質感を感じさせてて良いですね👍
I saw this movie when I was 5 (I'm 12 now). This movie was how my dad introduced me to anime. Beautiful work, Otomo.
Iconic animation and soundtrack.
Finally,i found it the original credit end version!
このエンディング曲最高です♪
ダーダーダッダーってやつも好きです笑
I love how they added Kaneda motorcycle sfx, that’s so cool!
Amazing! 👏👏👏👏 Thank you!

cool upload LogosAndStuff. I killed the thumbs up on your video. Always keep up the good work.
why you kill the thumbs up button what did it do to you
日本語クレジット版があったとは！
ビデオだと日本語版スタッフ ロールですよ。
It aired on BBC 2 when it was 1994. Because that credits are japanese.
俺のDVDのAKIRAは最後バイクの音ないわ
いいなこれ
Amazing❤
アキラ…は以外と興味なくヤングマガジンの表紙が懐かしい
the best movie I have watched in my life. Edit: lord of the rings is awesome to my favorite movie too
Just finished the film… wtf did I just witnesss
You have to read the manga to know the full story
End to the beginning
🎉🎉
All thanks to Akira, it would never will be there DBZ, if they didn't made it.
What?
I don’t know about that.
Akira helped usher in the Anime craze to the west, but it was inevitably going to happen eventually. Akira just sped it up. But Akira is no doubt very important. Dragon ball was being made before Akira the film came out. It's not really fair to say there would be no DBZ without Akira.
Was the text in the begining of the film also in japanese in this version? ("31 years after WWIII..." and the title)
No. These credits were included as a special feature, and the current version of the movie (with English credits) is being used for the 4K release.
@@LogosAndStuff Oh ok. That's a bit of a shame. It would be cool to see how the whole film was originally screened.
