but dragonball is just a moneymaker. akira.....notsomuch
i mean, they just created a new dragonball z manga story offshoot in japan and are releasing it for free online cause they want to revive the series. I read the first one.....it sucks so hard....
If the man says he loves Akira, and he's got a good bit of money to play with, then I'm giving him a chance. And i can picture alot of scenes actually coming out even better in live action.
