Major Anime Influences
The Wachowski brothers drew from a lot of various sources for The Matrix films and one of them is anime. Two anime shows, in particular, provided major influences for the films. They were Ghost in the Shell and Akira which the siblings liked for their stylized fight sequences and tone. They like these anime shows so much that they even told the producers that they wanted the films to feel like a live-action anime.
