I really love the drawing, it's more realistic type, and no-kind-of such those long arms long legs beautiful face one. The story is also good, and really love the battle. It has deep plot and storyline.
The main character that is the android alita is drawn very good and expressive, also has character development, not only 'piece of junk'. Must read before continuing to the sequel !

I read this quite a while ago, but felt the urge to add a comment.
This manga features a main character whose past is a mystery and with an amount of power that is staggering. It leads you on an epic journey with interesting characters. The art is clear cut with a decent eye on detail.
The only real downside is that the author didn't know when to move the focus. Some times to much is spent on one thing and another time a bit to little on another one. Over all it is fine, but the details is what makes and breaks a story.

One of the best Sc-fi manga i read.
I really like to see how the heroine struggles to find her way in an unfair world where the citizens of the ground are treated like trash.
In short, It's depth and great.
