It was the first time I'd ever picked up a Manga. I first discovered Yukito Kishiro's Alitadecades ago at a comic store in Ann Arbor that, sadly, no longer exists. When she learns that she has a deadly past, Alita becomes a target for a ruthless overlord known as Nova and his earth-bound representative Vector (Mahershala Ali), their lethal assassins Zapan (Ed Skrein) and Grewishka (Jackie Earle Haley), and an army of cybernetic warriors in Iron City's number one game - Motorball. At first, Alita is an innocent newcomer to a world she's never seen before. When she can't remember her name, he gives her one - Alita (Rosa Salazar). Unique in her design, Ido refurbishes her. On one of his scrounging trips, he discovers a beautiful but damaged, deactivated cyborg. Dyson Ido (Christoph Waltz) is a scrapper - scrounging the junk piles for cast-off cybernetic parts so he can help his patients lead somewhat normal lives. Below is Iron City, the last place people can survive working for the elites living in Zalem. Above floats the last great city of Earth - Zalem. "I believe you are someone truly special."
