Megazone 23 Complete Series

When a young tough kid who cares only about riding his tricked-out motorcycle around the streets of Tokyo and flirting with cute girls uncovers a strange looking bike, he gets introduced to a new world beyond his imagination. Actually, the world isn't new--it's an illusion. In fact, his whole life has been one giant computer-generated fabrication, and that's just the beginning of what he's about to uncover next. This complete run of the classic anime series from the mid-1980's is one of the most notable representations of the mecha genre as well as an inspiration for films dealing with electronic perceptions of reality, such as THE MATRIX trilogy.
