When Tokyo was chosen to
host the 2020 Summer Olympics in the 2013 bidding process, several commentators claimed that Akira predicted the future event. [163][164] In 2017, Akira was referred to in several Tokyo Olympic promotions. [165][166] In February 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic and 147 days before the Olympics, a scene in Akira which calls for the cancellation of the 2020 Olympics (147 days before the event) led to a social media trend calling for the cancellation of the 2020 Olympics. [167][168] The Summer Olympics were eventually postponed to 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic. References[edit] ^ a b c Harding, Daryl.

Silverman concluded that it is the work of a promising author and had positive
expectations for the series' development. [171] Leroy Douresseaux of Comic Book Bin gave the first volume a score of 9/10. He commended the series for its "ability to convey power in simplicity," explaining that Gotouge's art is "nice" but overly detailed, and the dialogue and exposition are straightforward. Douresseaux praised its characters and recommended the series to fans of demon-fighting heroes. [172] Nick Smith of
ICv2 gave the first volume a score of 4/5. He wrote that the story is well crafted and the characters intriguing, but the setting is "too deadly for the survival of the human race.
That also goes for Seirin.
The Generation of Miracles are also no exception from this. They are all defined by their superhuman abilities and are just very shallow. Aomine and Murasakibara are examples of wasted character
potential, why? Because they didn't have an evident change after their loss against Seirin. Aomine continued to slack in practice and Murasakibara still saw practicing as a hassle and he was too lazy for it. Like, aren't ya'll supposed to try harder now that you tasted defeat and wanna improve? Midorima and Kise are very shallow too, not much to say about their personalities as Midorima is the tsundere and Kise is that basketball version of Oikawa. Akashi's dual personality was very interesting and how ore-shi and boku-shi would talk to each other internally was also very good, but I really wanted more of his past and personality fleshed out even more since he had the potential to be a great character.
Story Pacing:
For real, this is KNB's biggest problem and I'm super pissed about it cuz I wanted to fully love this anime, but I think this is the reason why the fandom is practically dead. THE PACING IS SO BAD. Everything felt very rushed, it's like being given a spoon of soup to taste but then it suddenly gets snatched and you're given another spoon with a different flavor, and this is done 100x. When I was introduced to Kuroko and Kagami at the same time, I was slightly overwhelmed because they're suddenly introducing Kagami's
goal to defeat the GoM out of the literal blue because why would he wanna do that if he didn't have a solid reason? It would've been plausible if he was defeated by them or whatever.
