| CITAZIONE Cyberpunk manga Akira debuted in 1982—over thirty years ago. The manga, and subsequent anime, are set in 2019, against the backdrop of the forthcoming 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Er, I mean the 2020 Neo-Tokyo Olympics. The impending games and Neo-Tokyo Olympic Stadium do factor into the plot (for example, Akira is housed in a cryogenic chamber below the stadium, and the Olympic grounds house a military base.) VideoThe upcoming Olympics are even mentioned in the original Japanese theatrical trailer for the 1988 feature film, which is, of course, based on the manga.  The sign for the Olympic site that appears in the film reads: “147 Days Until the Tokyo Olympics.” Under that, it reads, “With everyone’s effort, let’s make this a success.” The sign says this is the 30th modern Olympic games (it will actually be a the thirty-second).  http://kotaku.com/the-2020-tokyo-olympics-...o-by-1276381444 |

stupenda la storia del primo che ha sconfitto il umore e ora potrebbe diventare primo italiano a vncere l'Oro Olimpico
e al 7 rosa per il loro argento
e alla nostra Trost Quinta nel salto in alto (sebbene anche secondo me poteva ambire alla medaglia 
)
