OVERALL: Draw
The Japanese 4K + Blu-ray release has an exclusive new documentary, though it loses some of the vintage extras.
The UK 2016 Collector’s Edition has all the extras found on the US Funimation release and adds the vintage "Akira: Production Report" documentary, though note the documentary is the English dubbed version.
The French 25th Anniversary Edition has a bonus DVD with the vintage "Akira: Production Report" and "Animation Library" documentaries.
The German Universum release also has the "Akira: Production Report" and "Animation Library" documentaries but lacks the extensive storyboards found on all the other releases. -
