Trivia:
The kanji that accompanies the Gunnm title literally means "gun dream". This kanji compound would normally be read as "juu mu", but manga artist Yukito Kishiro used the English word "gun" (rendered as "gan") for the "gun" kanji. Therefore, the actual pronunciation of Gunnm is "Ganmu". more

Dreams, Romance and Kick-Ass Cyborgs!!!, 15 June 2002
8/10
Author: RallyVincentFan from Northern Ireland, UK

Battle Angel Alita was one of the first anime I seen and have now started the manga which is far more in depth. It starts with professional cyborg scientist, and hunter warrior, Dr.Ido finding the head and shoulders of a cyborg girl in the waste. He fixes her and names her Alita as she cannot remember her past but soon discovers that she holds an incredible power locked deep within her mind and saves his life with it. On meeting Ido's helper, Hugo, she starts to fall in love with him and wants to help him achieve his dream of leaving this planet and moving up to Zeram, a floating city where all the rich people live. So she uses her skill and becomes a hunter warrior, equivalent of a bounty hunter, to help pay his way but meets difficult obstacles in the way. A tale of love and tragedy but there is some great action and a very bloody (and memorable) scene involving a dog! It may not be the perfect anime out there and it leaves a lot of questions unanswered but it's still well worth watching.
