If you visit Akira's friend Miki Makamura (in the guise of Akira) she will give you your energy back. In fact at one point in the game you play as Miki. Then later still you can use Devilman's wings and fly to the mountains or the woods. Here you must find and save (or not if you choose) the humans trapped by demons.
