AKIRA Manga - Film

That's Mr. Kaneda to you, punk!
~ Kaneda to Tetsuo

Background

Shotaro Kaneda is the main protagonist of the AKIRA film. He is the leader of The Capsules, a gang of high schoolers who ride along the high ways of Neo-Tokyo and rebelling against the law. He was also a friend of Tetsuo, acting as a brother figure to him before Tetsuo would encounter an esper and begin developing psychic powers.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Shotaro Kaneda’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Early Life
Like most of the characters in the story, Kaneda's early life is largely not shown in the film. However, behind-the-scenes materials describe his childhood. His parents owned a laundry business, and he had a brother four years younger than him, who was born with a disability and frequently visited treatment centers. The stress of this seems to have gradually caused the family to fall apart- their father collapsed from fatigue, Kaneda had to change elementary schools due to his brother changing treatment centers, and then his mother ran off. From ages eight to nine, the family lives off of government assistance, and eventually, due to his father's turn to alcoholism and being deemed unfit to care for the children, Kaneda is sent to an orphanage, separated from his little brother who stays at a hospital.

Kaneda had been living at the orphanage for half a year when Tetsuo arrived there, whom he quickly befriended by retrieving Tetsuo's toy which had been stolen by bullies. The two of them spent about a year and a half together there, before Kaneda turned eleven and graduated, forced to go to a boarding middle school and leave Tetsuo behind. Middle school is where Kaneda began showing signs of a defiant attitude, and while his grades were above average, he was a fully-fledged delinquent by thirteen. At fourteen, he got in trouble with the law and was expelled, getting sent to Eighth District Youth Vocational Training School.

At the Vocational School, Kaneda met Yamagata, and eventually formed a motorcycle team the next year. Not long after, Tetsuo and Kai transferred to the school and joined as well. During a fight with The Clown Gang, Tetsuo becomes victim of a motorbike accident caused by the sudden appearance of Takashi crossing the Old Tokyo road. After that, Kaneda and the rest of his gang are arrested by government forces who interrogate them because of the events.
