Battle Angel Alita Deluxe Edition, Vol. 1 by Yukito Kishiro-430 pages
This is the original Battle Angel Alita manga in new deluxe editions. This is the first volume of the editions. I really enjoyed reading this. The somewhat recent movie Alita: Battle Angel is loosely based on this manga. I have seen and enjoyed the movie, so I wanted to read the manga. Some similarities and differences exist between the manga and the movie. One major similarity is that Alita becomes a Hunter-Warrior in both the manga and the movie. Another similarity is that Yugo wants to go to Zalem to get out of Scrapyard and to get a better view. He is tricked by Vector into believing that if he raises 10 million chips Vector will take him to Zalem with him. One difference (at least in this volume) is the absence of Ido's ex-wife. Ido has an ex-wife who works with Vector in the movie. I am looking forward to reading volume 2 of this series.
