Kei Quotes in Akira (1988)

Kaneda: This has GOT to be a trap.

Kei: Then go back.

Kaneda: No. I just have to find how MUCH of it is a trap.

Kei: Amoebas don't make motorcycles and atomic bombs!

Kei: Amoebas don't build houses and bridges, they only eat.

Kaneda: [the light that remains from the explosion of Neo-Tokyo falls into Kaneda's hands] Tetsuo...

Kei: Kaneda, what is it?

Kaneda: Thank You.

Kei: Huh?

Kaneda: You called for me, didn't you? And I heard you.

Kei: There's a hole in your jacket.

Sho: That cost me a lot, Assholes!

[opens fire]

Kei: Here we go again.

Luka: [about the ocean and sunrise] This is what is looks like. It's been so long, I'd forgotten. It'd be beautiful in the sunlight... the waves sparkling.

Kei: Let's go. Sun's coming out.

Luka: You go, I've had enough.

Kei: Let's go. Come on!

Luka: Go... by yourself.

Kei: [while taking a picture] It's okay to smile sometimes...

Yi-Che: [smiles]

Sho: You don't drink blood these days.

Kei: It's none of your business.

Sho: But you're so weak...

Kei: Should I drink yours? I live by draining the lives of others. You know what that's like? That's my entire life. Sometimes I can't bear it, so I go without. A starvation diet. Now, I'm having fun with you all... but it's not real! You're all growing up. I'll be left behind. One day, you'll die. But I'll keep living. You think that's fun?

Kei: [in prison] Will I be put to death? I just want to die... it's very easy. Just put me outside in the sun. Then I'll die...

Sho: [to Kei in prison] You don't look too bad. It's been nine years, I counted on the way here. How do I look?... Look.

Sho: [takes out picture of his daughter] It's my kid, she's called Hana. She's six. Kei, I married Yi-Che. She wasn't sure at first. I reckon it's because... she really liked you. Then you left us... I kept asking, wouldn't give up. I tired myself out. She wasn't happy at first, but now things are good. Look, Kei.

Sho: [holds up picture of Hana to Kei] Please, look. It's our kid. I know all Dad's are proud but... I always hoped you'd get to see her. You, above all.

Kei: [looks at the picture]

Kei: Hello?

Sho: I wanted to see you, I missed you so. A lot's happened... I can't go on alone. I need your help. Help me, Kei... I can't go on alone...

Kei: Don't leave me!
