Pre -internet in the late 80's, teenage me obtained a mail order VHS copy of Akira and was well impressed. I remember excitedly ripping open the posties next Manga VHS delivery, and sitting down in the family living room with my Gran to watch it. She hadn't seen Akira and I thought she would be bored and just ignore it and continue knitting.
I don't ever recall having read any reviews, and think I just bought the next available Manga I could find via some magazine, and just thought it would be along the same lines. As it turns out, Legend of the Overfiend is not like Akira at all.

Proper awks silence and some batshit fast knitting ensued. CSB/

I don't like them. Maybe it was the 1990s Manga tentacle rape fad, but I feel uncomfortable looking at things like that.
