Battle Angel Alita Mars Chronicle Vol. 10 by Yukito Kishiro

 Battle Angel Alita Mars Chronicle Vol. 10 by Yukito Kishiro-176 pages

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Goodreads Synopsis: The operation to track down Yoko is interrupted when Gyapollo launches an ambush in the night. A clever trap does some damage, but Keun knows a duel is inevitable, and that he must put everything on the line. Meanwhile, Yoko's solo adventuring leads her to a monumental discovery-if only she understood its significance…

ThoughtsI enjoyed reading this even more than the previous volume. Battle Angel Alita is easily still my favorite manga to read. I like the mix of genres (dystopian, sci-fi, fantasy, and manga). I am always rooting for Alita/Yoko. I am excited for the next volume to be released and to read more about Alita's origin story.

The enemy’s name is Gyapollo, and he’s taken Yoko hostage and spirited her away! On top of that, he seems to have an enduring grudge against Keun, but why…?
