I just finished watching akira and i'm like WTF? I understood it ok for most of the movie, but the ending is pure WTF material.

Anyone care to enlighten me?
 
i wanted to punch tetsuo in the face throughout the whole movie.

congratulations, a great success if that was what the director/creator intended.

I kinda got that he was affected by the experiments that were done to him and the new power got his head.

He seems to get better when he's the blob before he goes in the ball thingy

!^*$@*&# that hurt man

Anyways, if you don't really understand the ending, you need to pay more attention during the movie, and think. it's pretty deep. I'm trying to find this huge explanation on the movie, but I'm not having any luck.

It is the evolution of human kind, "we ought to be able to" - evolve into the next higher state of being "because it has already begun" - the steps to the next state of evolution

Sorry, by rebirth of the earth I meant the cleansing of it, not the destruction and "rebirth"(reconstruction) of the physical planet.

It's the rebirth(restart) of everything on it

I agree that the end of Akira was strange. It seem like it was missing something. I recommend you to try Robotech.
