Just finished watching Alita Battle Angel and I loved ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mDhVJZB3S8&t=439s
>>287673019James Cameron objectively has good taste. He's also a mother fucker denying us an anime.I know the author was literally dying, but he never should have sold animation rights
>>287673045I haven't watched the live action yet but will in the next few days. Just savoring what I just watched in the OVA, and I'm obsessed now. I'll probably read the manga now too.
>>287673019Go read the manga.Like the anime too but good god, the manga is just so much better.
>>287673086The OVA is literally barely animated. For the Grewishka fight it just cuts from the bar to this junkyard so they wouldn't have to animate him destroying tables and chairs like in the manga. Chiren was a good character in the movie, she's basically the only good thing to come from the OVA.>>287673045Amazingly Cameron discovered the series through the OVA and not the manga, he didn't read it until much later. Kishiro in his prime was up there with Miura and Otomo.
>>287674868I will, but I've been reading spoilers from it, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. For instance, Alita gets her brain swapped with an implant. Everyone in the original story dies. We figure out what Zelam is, and there is no more mystery yet. That's what made the OVA great for me: the mystery behind it all.
>>287675820>Everyone in the original story diesThat's not true at all anon cmon
>>287675789Gunnm is my favorite manga, even compared to akira or berserk it's just so readable. The pacing is insanely tight, both plotwise and visually, you never get bored.
