A review by benedward
Battle Angel Alita, Volume 03: Killing Angel by Yukito Kishiro

4.0

After the death of Yugo, Alita leaves Ido behind and throws herself into the violence of the professional Murderball circuit. This is probably one of the most artistically iconic arcs in the Alita series. It is worth checking out for the art alone. The story sets aside some of the cyberpunk and existential questions that I love so much, until the very end. In it's place, is a cathartic and wild sports/battle manga story. Alita and Ido both grow as characters, and encounter one of the maddest of mad scientists in all of manga, Desty Nova.
