People from Akira worked some years on Steamboy, which you can recognize from the style and animation works. These two films have alot in common, like the previously mentioned things like art and animation, but you can recognize some minor details in characters and settings which will remind you of Akira or Steamboy. I really recommend watching this, when you've seen that. And of course the other way around. Be warned tho', Akira's from the late 80s and Steamboy from just a couple years ago.

Very similar characters in both movies and both have large scoped settings

Both are movies of the Punk genre, Akira is Cyberpunk and Steamboy is Steampunk. They also share a large amount of their staff including Katsuhiro Otomo as director and original creator. Mentionable is Steamboy's production cost of over $20 million making it one of the most expensive Japanese animation movies to date which is reflected in its top-notch quality at the time of release.

Directed by the same director Steamboy is basically Steampunk Akira
