Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : I... am Tetsuo.
-
Kaori : Everyone was worried about you. They really thought you might be dead.
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : When I woke up, I was laid out on the table in what looked like an operating room. Whatever the test was, it was, like, hammering all over my skull. Oh... Let's run away somewhere, huh? You and me, Kaori.
Kaori : Where can we go?
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Anyplace. Just the farther the better, huh?
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Oh, no.
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : What happened? Quite a mess huh?
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Ah. Well, it's over now. It isn't like you to miss the party.
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : You really put quite a scare into all of us. The guys thought you might be out here crying for help again.
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Kaneda, we're not back in school anymore. Ever since i was a kid, you've been telling me what to do. Always treating me like a kid. You made me look like a runt in front of the others.
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Now you're king of the mountain, aren't ya, but it's all garbage!
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Kaneda!
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Okay, let's settle this once and for all!
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Heh, heh... what's happening to me? I must be dreaming. Bitchin'. I feel like I can take out the world today.
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [after Kaneda slices his arm with the laser rifle] ... Fucker.
-
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : That's enough, Tetsuo! Are you tryin' to kill him?
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : You got it! I gotta wipe this guy all over the street!
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Get a hold of yourself! You start by stealin' my bike and run it into the ground, so just cool it, okay?
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Enough! They can't do this!
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Hey, we were worried about you!
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : I wish you'd go away and leave me alone!
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : What?
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : You think I'm a loser! It's not my fault I was smaller! Well, there'll come a day when I'll show all of you! Don't you forget it!
Kaori : Tetsuo...
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Go away and leave me alone!
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [shouting] I'm not Akira!

Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [checking out the functions of Kaneda's bike] Ceramic double-rotor two-wheel drive. Man, it even has computer-controlled anti-lock brakes! 12,000 RPMs!
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [entering the alley, followed by Yama] Is that you again, Tetsuo?
Yamagata (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : What? That pea brain?
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [as Tetsuo gets off the bike] That bike's been designed just for me. It's too much for a kid like you.
Yamagata (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [to Tetsuo, while mounting his bike] That bike'd grind you up and spit out the seeds, sport.
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [defiantly, while mounting his own bike] I could ride it.
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : [while turning on the bike] Yeah, yeah. Don't make me laugh. Maybe when you've downed your first Clown.

Yuji Takeyama : Look, I'm tellin' ya that the government, or at least the army was after that little guy.
Yamagata : Well, maybe they were, but so what?
Kai : You're missing the main point. Why don't they tell us where they took Tetsuo?
Kay : What? What'd he say?
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Oh, nothing. Say, why don't you and me get lost and have a few laughs?
Kay : Haha.
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Okay, maybe we could sit down and talk about, you know, the revolution and all that stuff.
Kay : Hm. Well, that's a new way to pick up a girl. What do you delinquents know about politics, anyway?
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Hey, come on! Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, huh?
Cop : Okay, you bums, sit quietly and I...
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Hey, I'm not givin' you a line. Just tell me about it and maybe me and my friends can help. I mean, we could ride out like the cavalry, huh?
Kay : Well, thanks, anyway. I gotta go. Thanks a lot, um... Uh...
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Kaneda.
Kay : Yeah. Well, thanks, Kaneda.
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Huh? Wait. Do you have to go so soon? Hey, that's not fair. Whoa! Wait a sec! Hey, that's the last time I stick my neck out for you! Hey!
[gets cut off by a train while chasing her]
Kaneda (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Well, the least you could do is tell me your name!
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Doesn't matter any more...
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : Medicine...
-
Tetsuo (1988 Streamline Pictures dub) : My body's not doing what I tell it to! My power's acting on its own...!
