The innocent children of Tiphares, the great city in the sky, have banded together, and Alita has been shanghaied into joining their cause. Their leader, Jim, the young genius who assisted her archenemy Desty Nova in resurrecting her, has been killed - yet his memories live on inside his creation, a huge childlike robot as destructive as a three-story-high three-year-old can be.

Alita joins her arch-enemy, mad scientist Desty Nova, and two nasty replicants of herself on a journey to Ketheres to rescue her old friend Lou's brain, which is part of a vast array powering the computer known as "Melchizedek." In Ketheres, the hapless cyborg and her unsympathetic companions promptly become embroiled in a war between artificial worlds. Their hosts have the secret of immortality, but how human is someone who can live forever?

Staging a unique protest to save children from becoming cannon fodder, Alita unwittingly competes in a tournament designed to pit insurgents against each other to cull them from the population and dies. But only symbolically. Illustrations."

When Doc Ido, a talented cyber-physician, finds Alita's head in a junk heap, she has lost all memory of her past life. But when he reconstructs her, she discovers her body still instinctively remembers the Panzer Kunst, the most powerful cyborg fighting technique ever known. In the post-apocalyptic world of the Scrapyard, as the secrets of Alita's past unfold, each day is a struggle for survival. - Battle Angel Alita: Last Order Omnibus 1 By Yukito Kishiro (Paperback)
