In 1990, Streamline premiered the first English dub of Akira at San Diego Comic-Con, forever changing the landscape of anime culture. Streamline’s Impact on Anime in the U.S.: Streamline Pictures, founded by Carl Macek and Jerry Beck, was created with a vision to bring uncut, authentic Japanese anime to Western audiences at a time when much of the content was being heavily edited.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/ci3.googleusercontent.com\/meips\/ADKq_NayWX5q1sgbl0jBf6Na-9Dm_ybPTAXxrvS96yCouuIbW7Wmpu40GWxVtgLTejY-b66aJdgaQtmO3z66Ma5DrxUynOb8m8xwPyVTAmQyco2hWg40W7VbYd4nWLWWQ04CK-Zyk3fTQxFCuxmMteadKYYTc-q2n9liCe6CQ0ca5nZvBB3GoQ=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/shopify-email\/ylkj9lgwgr3a8nfj8bl4qfyuctmi.jpg?width=600\u0026amp;height=600\u0026amp;crop=center_legacy\" class=\"m_4907472559046419918image CToWUd a6T\" align=\"center\" border=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" data-bit=\"iit\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMacek had already helped popularize anime with Robotech, but Streamline allowed him to preserve the artistic integrity of the original works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Streamline secured the rights to Akira, the staff made it clear that distributing a film wasn’t the only reason they fought for Akira, it was about delivering an untouched experience to a new audience.
