I'll post a Google-translated version hosted on Pastebin here in the comments since the original's in English. Ryusuke Hikawa's one of the biggest anime critics in Japan, I've seen his work published in academic journals and so forth. Akira is an obvious watershed moment for anime (or Japanimation as he calls it) and he has some good insights on it. And the translation quality isn't that bad either via Google Translate.
