[11] The British Film Institute describes Akira as a vital cornerstone of the cyberpunk genre, along with Blade Runner and Neuromancer. [127] Rob Garratt of South China Morning Post calls Akira one of "the most influential sci-fi visions ever realised" on film, comparable to the influence of Blade Runner.

regarded as an iconic anime scene, widely imitated and referenced in many works of animation, film and television. The "Akira slide" refers to a scene where Kaneda slides into view with his motorbike, as he uses a sideways slide to bring his bike to a halt, while the bike gives off a trail of smoke and electric sparks caused by the slide. It is regarded as one of the most iconic anime scenes of all time, widely imitated and referred to in many works of animation, film, and television.

It's also a lovely story of honouring the memory of lost loved ones, and dealing with grief. "[53] Sheena

McNeil also compared the series' pace and feel to Haibane Renmei. [54] Antonio Mireles of The Fandom Post named it the sixth best manga of 2021.
