In the distant future, in the 26th century, the world is divided between the magnificent floating city of Zalem and the grim Scrapyard lying beneath it. Among the wreckage and ruins of past civilizations, Doctor Daisuke Ido discovers a severely damaged cyborg with no memory. When he repairs her and gives her the name Alita, neither he nor she realizes that he has just awakened a weapon from ancient times—a being capable of love, compassion, and deadly combat.

As she struggles to find her place in the ruthless society of the Scrapyard, Alita learns that the world around her is not only brutal but deeply unjust. Crime and violence lurk not just in the dark alleys, but in the very foundations of those tasked with upholding order. In this environment, Alita must choose a side and accept that her deadly skills are not just weapons—they are an inseparable part of who she is.

The first volume of the Battle Angel Alita series lays the foundation for an epic saga of self-discovery. Yukito Kishiro masterfully blends futuristic action, profound philosophical questions about the nature of humanity, and touching moments of tenderness, creating a story that remains one of the most important titles in the world of science fiction even decades after its release.
