Alita Merch FAQ

If you’ve come this far, it means you’re still looking for more information about Battle Angel Alita and its merch. Here are some frequently asked questions that can bring some clarity. 

Should You Read the Original Alita Manga?

There are two parts to this question. The first is whether you should read the Alita manga before watching the Alita movie. The second, is if you should read the manga at all! Well. the answer to the first is easy: You don’t need to read the manga, and you probably don’t want to. The main reason is that the movie only covers a portion of the original story (more on this below). Now, about the manga itself… if you’ve seen the movie or if you haven’t but don’t care about spoilers (and like manga), you should definitely read it. It’s a great story.

What Are the Differences Between the Alita Manga and the Movie?

The Alita manga covers much more of the story than the movie. Granted, it also doesn’t go into as much detail in terms of world-building or side stories. The movie is an adaptation, so you can enjoy in its own right. One of the biggest differences between the Alita manga and the Alita movie is the time frame. The manga actually spans a few years and (without getting into spoiler territory) continues on… forever. Because there are new volumes being released on a regular basis!
