(TAHUN 2563)
(Tiga Ratus Tahun Setelah Kejatuhan...)
--- Penerjemah: Rizal Adam --- www.youtube.com/user/rizaladam
Kau hidup.
Kau bermimpi apa, malaikat kecil?
Coba lagi.
Itu terbaik yang bisa kulakukan sekarang.
Terima kasih, Dok.
Aku akan lembur pekan depan.
Bayarlah jika kau sudah punya uang.
Kubawakan ini untukmu.
Istriku bekerja di Perkebunan 22.
Terima kasih.
Sampai jumpa di lain waktu.
Jika terus dibayar dengan buah...
...bisa-bisa nanti kita berkebun.
Halo, tukang tidur.
Hai.
Bagaimana perasaanmu?
Baik.
Ada rasa sakit?
Tidak.
- Mati rasa? - Tidak.
Disfungsi motorik?
Aku sedikit lapar.
Makanlah ini.
Supaya kadar gulamu naik.
Reseptor pengecap berfungsi.
Terima kasih.
Kau akan lebih suka jika kulitnya dikupas.
Bukannya aku tidak sopan...
...tapi apa aku mengenalmu?
Sebenarnya, kita belum pernah bertemu.
Aku Dr. Dyson Ido. Ini Perawat Gerhad.
Kau tahu siapa aku?
Kami berharap...
...kau yang akan menjawabnya.
Karena kau cyborg penggantian penuh...
...dan sebagian besar tubuh sibermu rusak...
...kami tak bisa menemukan catatan apa pun.
Tapi ajaibnya otak manusiamu masih utuh.
Secara teori, seharusnya kau mengingat sesuatu.
Aku masih tak ingat apa-apa.
Tidak, aku sungguh tak ingat apa-apa.
Bahkan aku tak tahu namaku sendiri.
Mari lihat sisi positifnya.
Air matamu berfungsi.
Enak sekali.
Ini disebut apa?
Wah! Apa itu?
Zalem.
Kota langit terakhir.
- Bagaimana bisa melayang? Sihir? - Bukan.
Sesuatu yang lebih kuat. Teknik mesin.
Dan ini adalah Iron City.
Dengan semua pesonanya.
Dr. Dyson Ido. Itu kau.
Selagi aku mengingat nama, apa kau punya nama untukku?
Alita.
Itu nama yang bagus.
Aku suka.
Boleh kugunakan?
Setidaknya sampai aku bisa mengingat nama asliku?
Terima kasih.
Baiklah.
- Mau lihat-lihat? - Ya.
Kenapa begitu banyak bahasa?
Setelah perang besar yang kuceritakan...
Kejatuhan.
Setelah Kejatuhan, hanya Zalem yang tersisa...
...dan para penyintas dari seluruh penjuru dunia datang kemari.
Semua orang di sini bekerja untuk Zalem.
Pabrik, Perkebunan...
Pernah ada yang ke Zalem?
Kita harus ke sana.
Tak ada yang pernah ke atas.
Itu aturan yang tak pernah dilanggar.
Apa?
Dan dia menghabisinya dengan telak!
Itu apa?
Motorball.
Keren sekali.
Jangan membuang waktumu dengan menontonnya.
Alita.
Tunggu sebentar.
Hai.
Halo.
Kau mau?
Ini.
Boleh aku memelukmu?
Hai.
"DICARI. PEMBUNUHAN 6 WANITA MANUSIA."
"IMBALAN KESATRIA-PEMBURU 20.000"
Menepi.
Minggir.
Luar biasa.
Perhatikan jalanmu!
Harus kuakui...
...belum pernah kulihat ada yang menantang Centurion.
Kau berat juga.
Maksudku...
Kau cyborg.
Maaf, aku mengagumi tanganmu.
Boleh kulihat?
Wah.
Karya yang bagus.
Dok Ido yang membuatnya?
Dia membuat seluruh diriku.
Kecuali intiku. Itu punyaku.
Hasil kerjanya sangat bagus.
Itu apa?
Centurion?
Kau dari planet mana?
Ido menemukanku di Tempat Rongsokan.
- Tempat Rongsokan? - Ya.
Itu berarti...
Hei, Dok.
Aku punya papan sirkuit yang kau cari.
Alita baru di sini.
Dia masih belajar banyak hal.
Aku harus pergi.
Akan kuantarkan nanti.
Aku harus merakit quad servo.
Mungkin nanti kita jumpa lagi.
Siapa dia?
Hugo.
Dia pekerja keras, tapi...
Alita, ayo, mari kita pulang.
- Hugo. - Mari kita pulang.
Para Pencuri yang memereteliku berdiri di situ.
Dan Centurion itu hanya diam saja.
Untuk apa orang mengambil lengan dan kakimu?
Kopel torsi.
Pencuri mengincar suku cadang untuk pasar gelap.
Untuk pertandingan Motorball.
Kau beruntung.
Ada gadis lagi yang dibunuh semalam, di dekat sana.
Ya, kudengar gadis itu dipotong-potong...
...dan menjual bagian tubuhnya.
Maaf, Dok.
Untuk sekarang, aku tak mau kau keluar di malam hari. Mengerti?
Baik.
Jika kau keluar di siang hari...
...jangan terlalu jauh dari lingkungan ini.
Baik.
Janji?
Aku janji.
Hei, Nak.
Apa masalahmu?
Siapa gadis itu?
Asisten baruku.
Aku terkejut melihatnya dalam tubuh putri kita.
Mestinya sudah lama kau menghancurkannya.
- Aku tak bisa. - Itu jelas.
Kau beri tahu dia untuk siapa kau membuat tubuh itu?
Putri kita sudah meninggal, Chiren.
Kau harus merelakannya.
Jelas bukan aku yang mempertahankan sesuatu.
Di sini!
- Hugo. - Hei, Alita.
Inikah Motorball?
Ini hanya menyerupai.
Mau bergabung?
Ayolah, setiap anak harus bermain Motorball.
Tentu, kenapa tidak?
Aku mau kita jadi satu tim lagi.
Aku punya tempat baru yang bagus...
...dan peralatan...
...yang cocok dengan keahlianmu.
Bersama, kita bisa membuat juara terbaik dalam pertandingan ini.
Ini bisa jadi tiket pulangku.
Kapan kau sadar bahwa tidak ada jalan kembali?
Itu mustahil terjadi.
Vector bisa mewujudkannya.
Mustahil kau percaya Vector.
Dia punya koneksi orang-orang penting.
Aku tak mau menolongmu membuat monster.
Pokoknya aku akan kembali ke Zalem.
Jika diperlukan, aku akan merangkak ke sana.
Hei, semuanya, ini Alita.
Hai.
Cara terbaik belajar adalah langsung bermain.
Oper bolanya!
Bagus.
Condong saat berbelok, cari celah.
Aku mulai mengerti!
Kau bisa lepaskan remote-nya sekarang.
Sial.
Ayo, hentikan dia!
Hadang dia!
Koyomi, operkan bola padanya.
Dia membawa bolanya!
Hentikan dia!
Maaf, tuan putri.
Bagus, Tanji, terima kasih.
Dia belum pernah memainkannya.
Maaf.
Aku bisa!
Bolaku!
Hentikan aku!
Lemparan bagus.
Pacarmu mengalami kerusakan serius.
Maafkan aku.
Dia sangat mempermalukanmu.
Baiklah, sampai jumpa nanti malam.
Dia bukan pacarku.
Terserah.
Kau berbakat untuk permainan ini.
Aku harus pulang sekarang.
Ido ingin aku pulang sebelum malam.
Mau kuantar?
Jadi kau tak ingat apa-apa?
Aku sedang berusaha.
Keluarga, teman, makanan favorit?
Tidak ada. Mungkin jeruk.
Tapi itu baru kemarin.
- Jeruk? - Ya.
Tidak. Itu tak bisa diterima.
Coba lihat ini.
Terima kasih banyak, Senora.
Ini.
Terima kasih.
Kau siap?
Coba ini.
Percayalah.
Ini cokelat.
- Nikmat sekali. - Enak, bukan?
Kini aku punya makanan favorit.
Terima kasih. Ini makanan favoritku.
Aku tak menyebutnya begitu.
Ini favoritku.
Coba lihat itu.
Seorang Kesatria-Pemburu.
Dia pemburu uang imbalan. Namanya Zapan.
Sedang mencari sasarannya.
Aku tak mau jadi sasarannya.
Lihat pedang itu.
Semua senjata api dilarang di Iron City.
Bisa dijatuhi hukuman mati.
Apa pun yang menantang Zalem.
Bukankah sudah kubilang untuk pulang sebelum malam?
Apa masalahnya? Aku hanya lupa waktu.
Ya. Jangan percaya siapa pun.
Di sini orang saling menyakiti.
Kenapa lenganmu?
Makanlah ini.
Kau baik-baik saja?
Kau masih perlu makanan bergizi untuk otakmu.
Kau punya cokelat?
Ini dunia yang keras.
Di sini orang yang kuat memangsa yang lemah.
Kau harus tetap berfokus pada impianmu.
Apa impianmu?
Akan kuperlihatkan padamu.
Ini tempat rahasiaku.
Pemandangan terbaik di kota.
Wah.
Keren sekali.
Tidak. Lihat.
Pemandangan itu.
Benar.
Aku penasaran seperti apa di atas sana.
Lebih baik dari tempat ini.
Dengar.
Barang-barang dari Pabrik naik ke Zalem.
Tapi tabung-tabung itu untuk barang, bukan manusia.
Jika sekuat dirimu...
...aku akan naik tabung itu ke Zalem.
Orang dilarang ke sana.
Ya, mereka mau kau berpikir begitu.
Kau hanya perlu mengenal orang yang tepat.
Aku punya koneksi.
Kau harus bersedia untuk berbuat apa saja.
Apa saja.
Lucunya, kau pernah melihat Zalem.
Hanya saja kau tak ingat.
Apa maksudmu?
Dok menemukanmu di Tempat Rongsokan.
Semua barang itu dibuang dari Zalem.
Jadi kau pasti dari sana.
Kurasa begitu.
Andai saja kau bisa katakan apa yang kau lihat.
Andai aku bisa.
Aku terus coba mengingat...
...tapi aku tetap tak ingat apa-apa.
Aku mulai merasa diriku tidak penting.
Hanya gadis biasa yang dibuang bersama sampah lain.
- Tidak! Hentikan! - Alita!
Jangan lakukan!
Celaka.
Ini perangkap.
Kau mencariku, Dokter?
Atau tepatnya, Kesatria-Pemburu?
"Kesatria-Pemburu"?
Gawat.
Sepertinya dia menangkap kita.
Tetap di situ.
Terima kasih sudah membawa gadis itu.
Itu akan menghemat waktu kami.
Pukulan yang bagus untuk seorang manusia.
Tidak!
Kau datang untuk menyelamatkanku?
Baik sekali.
Matamu indah.
Dia milikku. Kau boleh ambil gadis itu.
Asalkan aku dapat matanya.
Alita, lari!
Astaga.
Bunuh kutu itu!
Kau cantik sekali.
Aku mau membelahmu dan melihat apa kau jelek di dalam.
Seperti yang lainnya.
Lihatlah dia mati.
Kemari kau, kutu kecil...
...agar aku bisa mencabut kepalamu.
99!
Di sebelah kirimu!
Kau akan rasakan pembalasanku, kutu kecil.
Grewishka tidak pernah lupa.
Aku akan membalasmu.
Kalian berdua.
Grewishka tidak pernah lupa!
Ketika aku bertarung, aku mengingat sesuatu.
Aku berada di pertempuran besar.
Kau mengejutkanku.
Kau juga mengejutkanku.
Sebelum Kejatuhan...
...ada polisi yang menghentikan para penjahat.
Kini Pabrik membayar kami untuk pekerjaan kotor.
Kesatria-Pemburu 17739.
Kau memang Kesatria-Pemburu.
Tunggu di sini.
Jangan bunuh siapa pun.
Imbalan untuk cyborg Nyssiana adalah 20.000 kredit.
Seharusnya kau katakan siapa sebenarnya dirimu.
Kau melakukannya demi uang?
Aku terima uangnya.
Jika tidak, klinik pasti sudah tutup sejak lama.
Kulakukan untuk alasan lain yang tak mau kubicarakan.
Kau harus membicarakannya.
Sesuatu selama perkelahian memicu ingatan.
Aku berada di bulan.
Kau lebih tahu tentang aku dari yang kau katakan.
Ini tubuh siapa?
Siapa aku?
Ini putrimu?
Kau membuat tubuh ini untuknya?
Namanya Alita.
Dia sungguh menginginkan kaki agar bisa berlari.
Kau membuatkan sepasang kaki yang cepat untuknya.
Dia tak sempat menggunakannya.
Dia dibunuh.
Apa yang terjadi?
Seorang pasienku datang ke klinik suatu malam mencari obat.
Dulu aku penyetel di pertandingan Motorball...
...dan aku buatkan dia tubuh mesin yang kuat.
Dia kesalahanku, yang kembali padaku.
Hei! Sedang apa kau di situ?
Alita tidak cukup cepat untuk kabur.
Ibunya, Chiren...
...tak bisa menerima kematian Alita.
Mungkin dia tak bisa menerimaku.
Jadi aku berburu.
Aku harus membunuhnya.
Mungkin aku berharap dia akan membunuhku.
Ini tak membawa ketenangan.
Ada penjahat lain seperti dia di luar sana...
...dan aku merasa mereka adalah tanggung jawabku.
Jadi aku mendaftar sebagai Kesatria-Pemburu.
Bukan perbuatan yang mulia.
Kau menemukan ketenangan?
Aku menemukanmu.
Aku bukan putrimu.
Aku tidak tahu aku ini apa.
Aku tahu.
Aku sudah memeriksa inti Siber aslimu.
Ini otakmu.
Otak gadis remaja sehat yang normal.
Jika itu memang ada.
Tapi ini jantungmu.
Bagian dari inti aslimu...
...ditenagai oleh Reaktor Mikro Anti-Materi.
Jadi jantungku kuat?
Jantungmu cukup kuat...
...untuk menyediakan daya bagi Iron City selama bertahun-tahun.
Ini teknologi yang hilang.
Tak ada lagi yang membuat ini sejak...
...sebelum Kejatuhan.
Ya, benar.
Jadi usiaku 300 tahun?
Benar, Sayang.
Aku tak mau pemainku kalah kecuali kalau kusuruh.
Tak bisa ambil risiko.
Kau menjanjikanku juara.
Dan kau menjanjikanku yang terbaik dalam segala hal.
Dapatkan servo militer yang kuminta.
Kau tak punya sikap pemenang.
Bersiaplah untuk pertandingan besok.
Tolong aku.
Grewishka?
Buat apa aku menyia-nyiakan bakatku padamu?
Lihat perbuatannya padaku.
Gadis siber Ido.
Apa katamu?
Wanita dalam ingatanku memanggilku 99.
Yang kau lihat itu adalah sekilas kehidupanmu yang sebelumnya.
Siapa aku ini?
Pada waktunya, kau akan ingat.
Aku mau membelahnya jadi dua.
Grewishka.
Yang kuat telah dikalahkan.
Kita memeretelinya untuk suku cadang?
Lihatlah ini.
Ini Keping Telepresence. Dia terhubung.
Seseorang di Zalem menungganginya.
Ada para pengawas di balik mata seluruh kota ini.
Itu sudah biasa.
Akan segera kulepas...
...selagi aku memperbaikinya.
Buat apa membuang waktu untuk barang rusak ini?
Ini masalah pribadi.
Kau menyukai pekerjaanmu, Vector?
Jika kau menyukai jabatanmu dan segala kenyamanannya...
...kusarankan kau mendengarkan Dr. Chiren.
Nova.
Maafkan aku.
Siapa yang merusak Grewishka?
Seorang gadis cyborg kecil.
Walau titik pukulnya adalah bukti kekuatan besar...
...aku tak mengerti bagaimana tubuh kecil bisa punya tenaga besar.
Itu bukan akibat kekuatan tubuh.
Ini kekuatan pikiran.
Dia tahu teknik bertarung Panzer Kunst.
Perbaiki Grewishka.
Suruh dia membawakan gadis itu padaku.
Mati.
Dia sudah pergi.
Tidak pergi.
Pindah wadah.
Kau wanita yang pintar, Dokter.
Kau bertekad meraih tujuanmu dengan segala cara.
Jadi akan kutawarkan ini.
Jika dan saat kau membuatku senang...
...akan kuberikan takdir yang kau cari.
Zalem.
Kau akan mengirimku ke Zalem?
Aku ada di sana sekarang.
Anggap aku sudah melayanimu.
"DICARI. IMBALAN. DIAMBIL."
Tak ada uang imbalan untuk Grewishka.
Tapi kau sudah melaporkannya kepada Pabrik.
Dia membunuh para wanita itu...
Ada yang melindunginya.
Siapa yang punya kuasa untuk itu?
Orang yang jauh di atas kita.
Sebaiknya kita menjauh dari jalanan.
Aku ingin menjadi Kesatria-Pemburu sepertimu.
Alita, itu mustahil.
Kita bisa membentuk tim.
Alita, ini berbahaya, pekerjaan kotor.
- Aku tahu. - Kau tidak tahu.
Kenapa kau yang memutuskan?
Pokoknya tidak bisa.
Mungkin aku perlu situasi hidup atau mati...
...untuk mengingat siapa diriku.
Meski hanya sedikit.
Alita, ada hal yang lebih baik dilupakan.
Aku juga tak ingin tangan ini membunuh.
Maka akan kucari tahu sendiri.
Alita.
Aku sudah muak.
Dia ingin aku menjadi gadis kecilnya yang sempurna.
Jadi, kau mau hidup dengan aturannya atau aturanmu?
Pertempuran seru!
Dua peserta ini bersaing di sepanjang pertandingan.
Selamat datang di Motorball.
Jashugan mendapatkan bolanya.
Claymore menyerang!
Jashugan menjatuhkannya!
Masakus melempar Jashugan!
Kini Kutty membawa bolanya, satu angka.
Zariki mengejar.
Hancur lebur, Zariki!
Dia melempar Kutty seperti boneka!
Ayo. Aku mau perlihatkan sesuatu.
Aku kenal semua kru pit dan penyetel.
Aku akan memperkenalkanmu.
Siapa pemain terbaik?
Saat ini, Jashugan punya peluang terbaik menjadi Juara Akhir.
Bagian roda kiri masih miring.
Aku terlalu berbelok di tikungan enam.
Apa itu Juara Akhir?
Hal terbaik bagi pemain Motorball yang menang.
Setiap beberapa tahun, pemain tak terkalahkan dipilih...
...untuk pergi ke Zalem.
Hei, Hugo.
Pelan adalah lancar, lancar adalah cepat.
Lakukan sekali, dengan benar.
Juggernaut harus masuk ke pit, sekarang juga.
Kau suka kalah?
Kalau begitu, bawa dia ke sini.
Claymore diperbaiki. Kenapa dia tidak memimpin?
Alita di sini.
Itu Vector.
Pada dasarnya dia yang mengelola Motorball.
Kami banyak berbisnis dengan timnya.
Menjual suku cadang padanya dan penyetel barunya.
Chiren.
Ayo, teman-teman. Bawa aku kembali ke arena.
Apa? Bukan cuma kau yang punya koneksi.
Kutty menghampiri Juggernaut.
Kinuba mengikuti Kutty.
Kinuba menembusnya bagai cucian dengan Grindcutter.
Apa senjata itu sah?
Kinuba terlalu kuat dengan senjata baru itu.
Dia mengacaukan peluang.
Kau tahu...
...aku perlu Grindcutter miliknya...
...untuk proyek kita yang lain.
Crimson Wind melesat di lintasan.
Jadi, bagaimana pendapatmu?
Aku menyukainya.
Hugo. Kita harus pergi.
Aku ada urusan.
- Mau ke mana? - Ada yang harus kukerjakan.
Kau bisa pulang sendiri?
Ya, tentu.
Kau bisa pergi besok?
Aku mau tunjukkan tempat yang aku dan Tanji tahu.
Tempatnya di luar Badlands.
Mungkin itu bisa menolong ingatanmu.
Kuhargai itu.
Terima kasih.
Untuk segalanya.
Wah! Dia melemparnya!
Sial!
- Apa-apaan ini? - Sial.
Cepat!
Mati kau!
Anak kurang ajar!
Akan kuhancurkan kepala kalian!
Kalian tak bisa lakukan ini padaku!
- Siap. - Berikan.
Hati-hati.
Dasar berandalan!
Kalian akan dibalas untuk ini.
Kerja bagus.
Selamat untuk krumu.
Terima kasih, Pak.
Akan kubagikan.
Di mana bagianku?
Kapan kau akan beri tahu teman robotmu bahwa kau memereteli cyborg?
Aku tidak akan bilang.
Kau juga jangan bilang.
Kau takut dia akan meninggalkanmu?
Bawa Grindcutter ke Chiren sekarang juga.
Gunakan gerbang servis.
Pergi.
Vector, kau berengsek.
Seharusnya aku tahu.
Yang seharusnya kau tahu, kawan...
...yaitu tidak ada...
...yang lebih besar dari pertandingan.
Ada apa di luar kota?
Tidak banyak.
Perang merusak semua penunjang dan semua hal.
Yang kami tahu kota-kota langit jatuh dalam semalam...
...ketika musuh melancarkan serangan terakhir...
...dengan semua kapal mereka.
Siapa musuhnya?
RPM.
Republik Persatuan Mars. R-P-M.
RPM.
Di malam terakhir perang...
...Bumi berguncang dan langit terbakar.
Namun keesokan paginya, Zalem masih bertahan.
Sedikit lagi sampai.
Kapal itu dari pertempuran Zalem.
Mungkin melihat benda dari perang bisa memicu...
Penyelamat mencuri benda-benda untuk logam sejak lama...
...tapi semuanya teknologi RPM...
...jadi sebagian besar dibiarkan.
- Ini kapal RPM? - Ya.
Sangat sulit menjualnya...
...karena tak ada yang tahu itu apa...
Kita harus ke ruang kendali.
Di depan.
Dari mana dia bisa tahu?
Kita tak bisa ke sana. Itu ada di bawah air.
Menurutmu berapa lama dia bisa menahan napas?
Aku tidak tahu.
Ini pasti tidak bagus.
Lupakan.
Aku tidak mau.
Tapi...
Tapi kau harus melakukannya.
Ini bisa membantu kita melawan Grewishka...
...dan orang suruhannya.
Tubuh ini...
...punya tenaga yang kubutuhkan.
Aku merasakan hubungan dengannya yang tak bisa kujelaskan.
Mungkin inilah diriku.
Kau diberi kesempatan memulai dari awal.
Berapa dari kami yang dapat kesempatan itu?
Kenapa kapal perang musuh...
...merespons kepadaku?
Karena aku tahu kapal itu.
Aku pernah di kapal lain seperti itu, bukan?
Bukan begitu?
Siapa pun dirimu dulu, itu bukan dirimu sekarang.
Tidak!
Aku seorang prajurit, bukan?
Kau tahu itu.
Kau sudah tahu sejak awal.
Ini disebut Berserker.
Sistem senjata humanoid yang diciptakan oleh Technarchy RPM.
Intimu dirancang untuk berinteraksi dengan tipe tubuh ini.
Kode identitasmu mengaktifkannya.
Teknik bertarung naluriah yang kau gunakan...
...adalah Panzer Kunst, seni bertarung yang hilang untuk tubuh mesin.
Itu digunakan oleh para Berserker.
Ini sebabnya kau tertarik pada konflik tanpa ragu.
Ini bagian dari pelatihanmu.
Kau bukan prajurit biasa, Alita.
Kau Berserker RPM...
...senjata cyborg tercanggih yang pernah diciptakan.
Itu sebabnya aku takkan pernah menyatukanmu dengan tubuh ini.
Tidak apa-apa.
Baiklah.
Sebutkan urusanmu.
Aku mau daftar menjadi Kesatria-Pemburu.
Bagaimana hasilnya?
Kau seorang Kesatria-Pemburu.
Dok pasti akan kesal.
Aku hidup dengan aturan siapa?
Kau yakin dengan ini?
Tempat ini hanya untuk pemburu imbalan, yang lain tidak...
Menurutmu ini apa?
Lagi pula, Ido bilang aku tertarik pada konflik.
Aku ingat kau.
Apa kabar, anjing kecil?
Baik?
Jaga belakangku.
Ya ampun.

Hei, Zapan! Jangan merusak perabotannya.
Ada apa kau kemari, manis?
Mau melihat Pemburu secara dekat?
Tidak juga.
Gadis manis ini pemburu uang imbalan.
Apa?
Kau ke sana...
...mengisi formulir pendaftaran...
...mendapatkan tanda pengenal...
...lalu sekarang kau seperti kami?
Mari kuperkenalkan padamu...
...beberapa rekan profesionalmu.
Ini Guru Clive Lee dari Telapak Api Putih.
Dia sudah membunuh 200 kali.
207.
Ini Screwhead...
...salah seorang pemburu uang imbalan paling mematikan.
Lalu ada McTeague...
...sang Dogmaster, bersama anjing-anjingnya.
Masalah terbesarnya adalah korbannya sedikit sulit dikenali...
...agar dia bisa menerima uang imbalan.
Lalu ada aku.
Zapan.
Penjaga Pedang Damaskus yang legendaris.
Diasah sampai ke tepi. Memotong baju baja seperti mentega.
Ditempa sebelum Kejatuhan oleh seni metalurgi RPM yang hilang.
Siapa yang kau bunuh untuk mendapatkannya?
Kesatria-Pemburu pemangsa yang menyendiri.
Kau akan bersaing dengan kami untuk membunuh.
Kau bisa melihat lawanmu.
Terima kasih.
Aku kemari untuk minta bantuan kalian...
...melawan musuh kita bersama, Grewishka.
Dia dilindungi oleh sistem...
...dan terus mengamuk tanpa terkendali.
Sekarang, dia mengincar Ido dan aku.
Jadi aku meminta kalian...
...saudara-saudara Kesatria-Pemburuku.
Mari kita bersatu dan kalahkan dia untuk selamanya.
Ada yang mau?
Tidak ada?
Ini sangat mengejutkan.
Biasanya aku tak menerima pemula...
...berbagi pengetahuanku.
Untukmu aku membuat pengecualian...
...jika kau tinggalkan anak manusia ini...
...dan kutraktir kau minum.
Jaga bicaramu.
Apa yang bisa kupelajari dari pembual berwajah cantik...
...yang habiskan semua uang untuk wajahnya?
Mungkin akan kucopot lengan dan kakimu...
...menggelindingkan kepalamu di jalanan.
Mungkin itu bisa mengajarkanmu sopan santun.
Rambutmu bisa berantakan.
Kau akan diam saja, Zapan?
Dia takut dengan gadis cantik.
Kau tidak pantas memiliki senjata sehebat itu.
Kudengar dulu kalian pahlawan Iron City.
Aku tidak kagum.
Apa yang kau lakukan?
Aku ingin kau menjauh.
Akan kulawan siapa pun di ruangan ini.
Jika aku menang...
...kau bertarung di sisiku.
Gadis berengsek itu mematahkan hidungku.
Benar.
Pahlawan?
Yang kulihat hanyalah siber rongsokan...
...dan sekumpulan pemain Motorball mabuk...
...yang terlalu lamban untuk bermain.
Terima kasih, Hugo.
Gawat.
Tahan!
Hentikan!
Atau tidak ada lagi perbaikan gratis!
Aku bersamanya.
Maaf soal ini.
Kita berdua harus bicara.
Tidak, kita sudah bicara.
Kau tidak memberiku pilihan.
Diam di situ.
Itu Grewishka.
Kenapa dengannya?
Untuk menjawab pertanyaanmu...
...aku dapat peningkatan kecil.
Aku datang untuk gadis itu.
Dia milikmu.
Bagaimana dengan kalian?
Tak ada uang imbalan untuk orang ini, Dok.
Bukan urusan kami.
Tak apa-apa, Ido.
Satu-satunya yang punya keberanian.
Polos sekali.
Iron City bukan tempat untuk orang polos, kutu kecil.
Aku tidak diam saja saat ada kejahatan.
Datanglah ke duniaku.
Ayo, kutu kecil.
Alita! Tidak!
Selamat datang di dunia bawah tanah. Duniaku.
Dari sini, ada dunia di atas dunia...
...lebih tinggi dari yang bisa kau bayangkan.
Sampah dari setiap dunia mengalir turun...
...sampai semuanya berakhir di sini.
Di sinilah aku dulu hidup.
Dan di sinilah kau akan mati.
Menarilah, kutu kecil.
Aku dilupakan di sini untuk membusuk.
Tapi aku diselamatkan...
...diperbaiki...
...oleh tangan sama yang membentuk takdirmu saat ini.
Tangan siapa?
Tuanku, Nova.
Kau tahu apa tentangku?
Kau punya jiwa seorang penyintas.
Kau takkan pernah menyerah.
Ketahuilah apa yang tersembunyi.
Selalu bertanya...
...apa yang tidak kau lihat?
Nova?
Dia naga yang harus dibunuh.
Ulangi lagi.
Lihat dirimu.
Kau mau ke mana?
Ada apa?
Mainan kecilku tidak mau bermain lagi?
Aku akan mengubahmu menjadi liontin hidup...
...untuk menghiasi dadaku.
Lalu aku bisa mendengar suaramu setiap hari...
...memohon ampun!
Aku takkan memohon ampun padamu.
Tidak!
Hentikan!
Dia bukan pecinta anjing. Aku benci itu.
Kemarilah.
Maaf.
Maafkan aku.
Pikirmu kau bisa menggantikan kami semudah itu?
Buat dia kembali sebanyak yang kau suka.
Takkan ada yang berani menyakitimu lagi.
Ini teknologi adaptif dari tubuh Berserker.
Kulitnya melakukan konfigurasi ulang...
...sesuai gambaran diri alam bawah sadarnya.
Aku belum pernah melihat hal seperti ini.
Tubuhnya membuat penyesuaian mikro di setiap sistem.
Dia terlihat sedikit lebih dewasa dari yang kau kira.
Lihat dirimu.
Kau benar.
Jiwa prajurit membutuhkan tubuh prajurit.
Tubuh itu menyedot udara, menghasilkan busur plasma...
...tapi aku tak tahu caramu mengendalikannya.
Kau tak punya buku petunjuknya, bukan?
Itu semacam senjata.
Kini kau tahu siapa dirimu.
Tapi itu hanya kulit.
Tidak baik atau buruk.
Itu tergantung kepadamu.
Coba lihat ini.
Cukup bagus, bukan?
Alita!
Wah.
Kau...
- Utuh kembali? - Sangat utuh kembali.
Kau terlihat...
...berbeda.
Ini semua teknologi nano.
Banyak darinya yang belum dipahami Ido.
Jadi kau lebih kuat dibanding dahulu?
Ya. Dan juga lebih cepat.
Terasa...
...lebih diriku.
Beberapa lelaki mungkin takut dengan gadis sepertimu.
Benarkah? Kenapa?
Karena kau bisa mencopot lenganku dan memukuliku dengan lengan itu.
Maka jangan membuatku marah.
Kenapa kau tak suka dia?
Aku hanya tak suka dengan robot.
Selain itu, dia RPM.
Itu berarti dia mungkin adalah musuh.
Ya, 300 tahun yang lalu.
Sudahlah.
Aku juga jauh lebih sensitif dengan sentuhan.
Umpan balik gaya yang jauh lebih padat dan...
...sensor tekstur.
Kau mau coba?
Kau bisa merasakan ini?
Ya.
Pejamkan matamu.
Bagaimana dengan ini?
Ya.
Di mana aku sekarang?
Kau...
...bersamaku.
Apa kau terganggu...
...kalau aku bukan sepenuhnya manusia?
Kau orang paling manusiawi yang pernah kutemui.
Dia tak mau aku memperbaiki matanya.
Katanya dia ingin merasakan sakit.
Cukup.
Nova.
Kau telah mengecewakanku.
Berdiri.
Kau takkan pernah menang sampai kau mengerti dia itu apa.
Dia yang terakhir dari kaumnya.
Senjata terbaik dari Technarchy RPM.
Kau harus menghancurkan Alita.
Bawa jantungnya padaku.
Aku hidup untuk membunuhnya.
Aku benci ketika dia lakukan itu.
Dia bukan orang yang menerima kegagalan.
Aku takkan memercayakan masa depanku kepada sepotong besi.
Apa saranmu?
Untuk impian.
Aku suka motivasimu, Hugo.
Kau punya masa depan yang bagus dengan timku.
Masa depanku di Zalem.
Aku mengingat janjimu setiap hari.
Untuk mengirimku ke atas.
Saat aku memberimu sejuta kredit.
Secara pribadi...
...aku lebih suka berkuasa di neraka ketimbang melayani di surga.
Kita berada di dasar rantai makanan jika di atas sana...
...tapi di bawah sini...
...kita bisa hidup seperti raja.
Jadi...
Ceritakan padaku mengenai temanmu ini.
Alita?
Itukah namanya?
Alita.
Hai.
Apa yang terjadi padamu?
Aku mengobrol dengan Vector.
Lalu kami minum alkohol.
Tampaknya.
Vector?
Itukah koneksimu untuk pergi ke Zalem?
Ya.
Aku berharap kau ingin tinggal.
Hei, tidak secepat itu.
Aku masih mengumpulkan sisa uangnya lebih dahulu.
Tak apa-apa.
Ini impianmu.
Aku tahu ini yang selalu kau inginkan.
Kau tahu...
...dulu aku selalu begitu yakin.
Dengan kemunculanmu...
...semua jadi tak jelas lagi.
Berapa lagi yang kau butuhkan untuk ke sana?
90.000.
90.000?
Aku bisa dapatkan itu dari uang imbalan.
Aku akan cari siapa yang punya imbalan tertinggi...
...lalu aku akan membunuhnya.
Aku tak bisa meminta bantuanmu.
Kulakukan apa saja untukmu.
Akan kuberikan apa saja yang kumiliki.
Apa yang kau lakukan?
Aku akan memberikan jantungku padamu.
Ambillah.
Ini memiliki Reaktor Mikro RPM untuk pasokan daya...
...mungkin bernilai jutaan.
Dengan koneksimu, kau bisa menemukan pembeli...
...uangnya cukup bagi kita berdua untuk pergi ke Zalem...
...lalu kita mencari pengganti yang murah...
Tidak.
Ayolah, kau sudah biasa jual beli suku cadang.
Jangan terlalu mudah membantu orang.
Sebaik apa pun mereka...
...atau seberapa pantasnya mereka.
Aku tidak mau tanggung-tanggung.
Inilah diriku.
Aku tahu.
Tak apa-apa.
Taruh kembali.
Itu tadi intens, bukan?
Ya, sangat intens.
Maaf.
Mungkin ada cara lain.
Vector ingin kau ikut uji coba untuk Liga Kedua.
Apa?
Kau menjadi bintang Motorball...
...menghasilkan banyak uang...
...kita bisa ke Zalem bersama-sama.
Apa maksudmu?
Aku tak bisa menjadi pemain Motorball profesional.
Ali...
...kau bisa menjadi juara.
Jika kau memenangkan uji coba ini...
...setiap pencari bakat akan memperebutkanmu.
Semua akan beres.
Hanya jika kau jadi pelatihku.
Jika memang itu yang diperlukan.
Itulah yang diperlukan.
Apa kau akan membunuhnya?
Tidak.
Lebih buruk lagi.
Ido, apakah bisa manusia mencintai cyborg?
Kenapa?
Cyborg ini mencintai manusia itu?
Ya.
Seorang manusia bisa mencintai cyborg...
...tapi fokuslah pada pertandingan, Alita.
Ini bisa sangat berbahaya di arena.
Bahkan untuk uji coba.
Coba ini.
Kau membuatnya ini untukku?
Ya.
Itu tak membuatmu lebih cepat. Itu aturannya.
Tapi setidaknya itu takkan mengecewakanmu.
Ini kesepakatan kita.
Kau ke sana, berlomba...
...menang, lalu kembali ke sini.
Kenakan semua pelindung ini, terutama yang ini.
Aku tak perlu semua ini.
Ya, kau perlu.
Ingat...
...jika kau merusak tubuh ini, tak bisa kuperbaiki.
- Ini teknologi RPM. - Ya, aku tahu.
Pergilah mencari tempat menonton, karena kau membuatku gugup.
Semoga berhasil.
Sampai nanti.
Terima kasih sudah datang secara mendadak.
Kalian para pemain yang tidak mematuhi aturan.
Tapi malam ini, kalian dipilih melakukannya.
Karena malam ini bukanlah pertandingan.
Tapi perburuan.
Akan kubayar 500.000...
...bagi siapa yang bisa membunuh gadis bernama Alita.
Hei.
Kau di mana? Uji cobanya akan dimulai.
Aku dalam perjalanan.
Aku ada urusan terlebih dahulu.
Kulakukan ini untuk kita, ingat?
Jangan melewatkannya.
Tak akan. Percayalah.
Kumohon hentikan.
Aku tak berbuat salah padamu.
Ini hanya bisnis. Bukan urusan pribadi.
Tanji, hentikan!
Kau memanggil namaku?
Ada apa denganmu?
Aku tak bisa lakukan ini lagi.
Ada apa? Kau sudah jarang ikut.
Kini kau datang dengan omong kosong ini!
Ini karena robot itu, bukan?
Dengar, ini sudah berakhir. Mengerti?
Aku berhenti.
Jika kau punya otak, kau juga akan meninggalkan ini.
Aku berhenti.
Untuk selamanya.
Mestinya kau memereteli gadis jalang itu saat punya kesempatan.
Tentu kau sudah di Zalem sekarang.
Profesional sekali.
Kami tak mau ada masalah.
Jika ini sasaranmu, kami minta maaf. Dia milikmu.
Hugo.
Memereteli cyborg.
Pastinya pacarmu akan sulit menerimanya, bukan?
Tapi kau tahu para gadis.
Dia mungkin akan menangis dan memaafkanmu...
...saat kuperlihatkan kepalamu.
Tak ada imbalan untuk diriku.
Akan ada.
Ada imbalan besar untuk pembunuh...
...walaupun untuk sampah sepertimu.
Aku tak membunuh siapa pun.
Kau baru saja melakukannya.
Dia pikir bisa mempermainkanku?
Hugo, lari!
Selanjutnya uji coba Liga Kedua.
Tim latihan Pabrik harap melapor ke garis start.
Pemenang malam ini akan selangkah lebih dekat...
...untuk masuk Liga Juara.
Pesertanya tangguh.
Ini akan jadi pertandingan yang seru malam ini.
Itu bukan tim Pabrik.
Apa?
Dua berandalan di belakang...
...punya tanda imbalan.
Lalu yang lainnya, mereka Kesatria-Pemburu.
Ini dia prospek baru malam ini.
Baiklah, semuanya, sambutlah Alita!
Hugo membawanya kepada kita.
Apa yang kau janjikan padanya?
Mengirimnya ke Zalem, tentu saja.
Alita! Alita!
Hei.
Karena hanya ada satu prospek baru...
- Apa kabar? - ...takkan ada tim.
Pertandingan ini dinamakan Kejam.
Jangan kasar-kasar kepadaku.
Tentu, Nak.
Jangan khawatir.
- Alita! - Apa yang kau lakukan?
Ini perangkap. Kau harus pergi dari situ.
Mereka akan membunuhmu!
Yang mana?
Semuanya!
Para pemain, peringatan 10 detik.
Lima detik...
Peserta baru, Alita...
...langsung menguasai bola.
Malam Selasa yang biasa menjadi lebih seru dari penyisihan.
Tampaknya para penggemar...
...menjuarakan peserta yang tak diunggulkan...
...dengan wajah seorang malaikat dan tubuh yang dibuat untuk bertempur.
Mungkin akan ada Motorball kecil di tengah pertarungan ini.
Sial.
Sepertinya ini adalah "Hari Selasa tanpa aturan".
Aduh! Itu pasti sakit!
Stinger membuat Alita dalam kesulitan.
Alita pasti mengatakan sesuatu di ruang ganti...
...yang mereka tidak suka.
Nomor 99...
...Alita!
Ali, ini aku.
Aku dalam masalah besar.
Hugo, ini bukan waktu yang tepat.
Dia mau membunuhku.
Siapa yang mau membunuhmu?
Zapan, si Kesatria-Pemburu.
Dia membunuh Tanji.
Apa maksudmu?
Sekarang dia mengejarku.
Entah apakah Malaikat Tempur kita bisa lolos dari yang ini.
Sial. Dia datang!
Kau di mana?
Aku menuju gereja tua.
Baiklah. Aku datang.
Aku tak percaya! Luar biasa!
Aku belum pernah melihat hal seperti ini.
Aku hampir sampai.
Baik.
Kau mau ke mana?
"DICARI. PEMBUNUHAN. IMBALAN 30.000."
Sepertinya Hugo tidak sepenuhnya jujur padamu.
Benarkah?
Ali...
...kau tidak mengerti.
Aku tak pernah membunuh siapa pun.
Kami hanya merampok suku cadang.
Kami melumpuhkan mereka dan memeretelinya, itu saja.
Aku perlu uang untuk pergi ke Zalem.
Minggirlah dan biarkan aku melakukan tugasku.
Sentuh dia lagi dan aku akan membunuhmu.
Menghalangi Kesatria-Pemburu berizin membunuh sasarannya...
...itu melanggar Hukum Pabrik dan Kode Pemburu.
Dia milikku!
Kalau begitu, bunuh dia.
Ayo, Kesatria-Pemburu.
Malam ini, kau jadi salah satu dari kami.
Tak ada tempat untuk cinta dan belas kasihan dalam Kode Pemburu.
Biar kupermudah untukmu.
Hugo!
Serahkan penjahat Hugo, Imbalan 9107.
Dicari karena pembunuhan.
Sebaiknya kau habisi dia sebelum kami yang melakukannya.
Itu sudah Hukum Pemburu!
Aku harus membawamu ke Ido.
Tidak. Centurion.
Jika kau membawaku keluar hidup-hidup...
...mereka akan membunuh kita berdua.
Apa yang kau lakukan?
Aku tak membunuh orang itu.
Tapi apa bedanya?
Aku membongkar tubuh orang.
Orang sepertimu, demi uang.
Kau di mana malam ini?
Aku pergi untuk menghentikan yang lain.
- Kubilang aku berhenti. - Kenapa?
Karena aku mencintaimu.
Maafkan aku.
Apa kau menemukan mereka?
Tidak.
Mereka sudah pergi.
Tubuhmu dingin sekali. Kumohon jangan mati.
Kumohon jangan.
Akan kuberikan dia nyawaku jika aku bisa.
Mungkin kau bisa.
Kau telah melanggar Hukum Pabrik dan Kode Pemburu...
...dengan melindungi buronan.
Di mana penjahat Hugo, Imbalan 9107?
Hugo sudah mati.
Aku mau mengambil imbalannya.
Kesatria-Pemburu 26651.
Pengambilan imbalan dipastikan.
Ya, itu tipuan yang pintar.
Pikirmu ini akan berhasil?
Berikan padaku.
Pelanggaran.
Kesatria-Pemburu Zapan...
...mencuri imbalan orang lain...
...itu melanggar Hukum Pabrik dan Kode Pemburu.
Terima kasih.
Wajahku.
Wajahku!
Tidak!
Bagaimana keadaannya?
Kota ini merusak orang-orang yang baik.
Dia baik-baik saja.
Kondisinya stabil.
Teknik operasi Chiren luar biasa.
Tak ada kerusakan otak.
Vector melakukan penipuan.
Jika lahir di daratan, kau tetap di daratan...
...dan uang sebanyak apa pun tak bisa mengubahnya.
Satu-satunya cara untuk pergi dari dunia bawah ke Zalem...
...adalah menjadi Juara Akhir.
Kau tak bisa membeli jalan ke sana.
Tapi kau tahu dari mana?
Aku lahir di sana.
Aku sendiri yang menghapusnya, Tanda Zalem.
Karena putri kami sakit...
...aku dan Chiren dipaksa turun ke Iron City.
Orang yang bertanggung jawab untuk pengusiran kami...
...pengawas di balik mata...
...adalah Nova.
Jantungnya ada di tanganmu...
...dan kau membiarkannya hidup.
- Ya. - Kenapa?
Karena aku seorang dokter.
Dan...
...aku juga seorang ibu.
Entah kenapa aku melupakan itu.
Aku tak bisa lakukan ini lagi.
Aku berhenti.
Chiren, tunggu.
Bukankah sudah waktunya bagimu ke Zalem?
Aku bisa mengirimmu ke atas sana sekarang juga.
Yang kuinginkan...
...tidak ada di atas sana.
Ada yang harus kulakukan.
Aku akan kembali.
Ini salahku.
Jangan pernah menyalahkan dirimu.
Tinggal kau satu-satunya tubuh ini dibuat.
Terima kasih, Ayah.
Vector!
Niat jahat terdeteksi.
Letakkan senjatamu.
Laporan keamanan.
Pelanggaran!
Kalian menangkapnya?
Keamanan?
Kau tak berniat mengirim Hugo ke Zalem, bukan?
Aku selalu menepati janji untuk mengirim orang.
Seperti Dr. Chiren.
Nova menuntut bagian tubuh untuk eksperimennya.
Terutama otak dari orang-orang yang dia kagumi.
Itu satu-satunya cara orang bisa ke Zalem.
Kau baru datang.
Sudah kuduga kau tak mau takdir menemukanmu, kutu kecil.
Berdiri.
Cincin Pertahanan!
Selesaikan misi.
Hancurkan Zalem.
Aku tahu siapa musuhku.
Aku tahu dia sedang mengawasi kita saat ini.
Kau hanya budaknya.
Dan aku hanya gadis biasa.
Bicara.
Tidak. Tunggu.
Bicara!
Kau mau aku katakan apa? Akan kukatakan semuanya.
Bukan kau.
Tapi dia!
Kita akhirnya bertemu, Alita.
Tentu itu bukan nama aslimu.
Nova?
Di mana kau?
Di rumah. Saat ini.
Di atas.
Nak, kau melampaui harapanku.
Kau membunuh juaraku Grewishka.
Sangat mengagumkan.
Dan mengubah makhluk egois seperti Chiren.
Aku tak menduganya.
Jadi, saat kau keluar dari sini, Pabrik takkan menghentikanmu.
Untuk kali ini.
Aku tak perlu izinmu untuk hidup.
Yang lain mungkin perlu.
Contohnya Dr. Ido.
Bagaimana dengan Hugo?
Dia masih hidup, bukan?
Kami akan melacaknya.
Satu-satunya cara untuk menikmati keabadian...
...adalah menyaksikan yang lain mati.
Kau baru kehilangan bonekamu.
Itu terlihat fatal.
Tidak masalah.
Vector mulai melelahkan.
Kau membuat kesalahan terbesar dalam hidupmu.
Kesalahan apa itu?
Meremehkan diriku.
Kalau begitu, sampai lain waktu.
Ingat.
Aku melihat segalanya.
Alita.
Penegak hukum dari Pabrik datang mencari Hugo.
Entah bagaimana mereka tahu dia masih hidup.
Aku membantunya kabur, tapi mereka menutup kota.
- Mereka akan menemukannya. - Di mana dia?
Dia berusaha ke atas.
Hugo!
Hugo.
Hugo!
Berhenti.
Kau harus turun. Kita tak bisa di atas sini.
Ada imbalan untuk diriku. Ini satu-satunya jalan.
Tidak, ini berbahaya. Kita harus turun, sekarang.
Jika aku kembali ke bawah sana, aku akan mati.
Tidak. Kau harus mendengarkanku.
Aku pernah di sini.
Nova ingin kau di sini.
Dia memanfaatkanmu untuk menangkapku.
Ayo, kita harus turun.
Tempat kita di atas sana, Alita.
Tempat kita di mana saja selama kita bersama.
Kau akan selalu dalam pelarian.
Bersama-sama.
Ikutlah denganku.
Kumohon.
Kita bisa bebas.
Baiklah.
Tidak!
Bertahanlah.
Aku memegangmu.
Baik. Jangan bergerak.
Jangan bergerak.
Aku akan mengangkatmu perlahan-lahan.
Terima kasih...
...karena menyelamatkanku.
Aku mencintaimu.
Tidak!
Hanya butuh beberapa bulan baginya...
...untuk terus naik tingkat di Liga Kedua.
Malam ini, dia tampil untuk pertama kalinya...
...dalam Liga Juara.
Tempat dia punya kesempatan menjadi Juara Akhir...
...dan pergi ke Zalem.
Alita! Alita! Alita!
Mari kita sambut Malaikat Tempur...
...nomor 99...
...Alita!
Alita! Alita! Alita!

You're alive.
What are you dreaming, little angel?
Try again.
Well, that's the best I can do for now.
I'm really grateful, Doc.
I'll be getting some overtime next week.
Yeah, pay me when you can.
Here, I got these for you.
My wife works out at Farm 22.
Thank you.
See you next time.
Keep getting paid in fruit,
and we'll be picking these ourselves.
Hello, sleepyhead.
Hi.
How do you feel?
Okay.
Any pain anywhere?
No.
- Numbness? - No.
Motor dysfunction?
I'm a little hungry.
Eat this.
Get your sugar levels up.
Taste receptors are working.
Thank you.
You'll like this a whole lot better with the peel off.
I don't mean to be rude...
but am I supposed to know you?
Actually, we haven't met.
I'm Dr. Dyson Ido. This is Nurse Gerhad.
And do you know who I am?
Well, we were hoping...
you'd fill in that part.
Since you're a total replacement cyborg...
and most of your cyber body was destroyed...
we can't find any records.
But your very human brain was miraculously intact.
Theoretically, you should remember something.
It's still pretty blank.
No, it's completely blank, actually.
I don't even know my own name.
Let's look at the bright side.
Your tears are working.
That's so good.
What do you call this?
Yeow! What's that?
Zalem.
The last of the great sky cities.
- What holds it up? Magic? - No.
Something stronger. Engineering.
And down here, we have Iron City.
With all its charm.
Dr. Dyson Ido. That's you.
While I'm learning names, do you have one for me?
Alita.
It's a nice name.
I love it.
Can I keep it?
At least until I can remember my real name?
Thank you.
Okay.
- Do you want to take a look? - Yes.
Why are there so many languages?
Um, after the big war I told you about...
The Fall.
After The Fall, only Zalem was left...
and survivors came here from all over the world.
Everybody down here works for Zalem.
The Factory, the Farms...
Does anyone ever go up to Zalem?
We should go.
Nobody from down here ever goes up.
It's a rule that's never broken.
What?
Oh! And he takes him down hard!
What is that?
It's Motorball.
That's so cool.
Nothing you need to be wasting your time watching.
Alita.
One minute, please.
Hi.
Hello.
You want some?
Here you go.
Can I hug you?
Hi.
Step aside.
Out of the way.
Outstanding.
Why don't you watch where you're going?
I gotta admit...
I never saw anybody challenge a Centurion before.
Whoa. You're heavy.
I mean...
You're a cyborg.
Sorry, I was just admiring your hand.
Can I see?
Wow.
It's really nice work.
Did Doc Ido do it?
He built all of me.
Except my core. That's mine.
Well, he did a really great job.
Hey, what are those things?
The Centurions?
What planet are you from?
Ido found me in the Scrapyard.
- The Scrapyard? - Mm-hmm.
But that would mean...
Hey, Doc.
I got those driver-boards you were looking for.
Alita is new here.
She's still learning about things.
I gotta go.
I'll drop those off later.
I need a rebuild on a quad servo.
Maybe I'll see you around.
Who is that?
Hugo.
He's a hard worker, but...
Alita, come on, let's go home.
- Hugo. - Let's go home.
There's the damn Jackers that ripped me to shreds standing right there.
And that vale madre Centurion wouldn't lift a finger.
Why would anyone wanna take your arms and legs?
Torque coupling.
Those Jackers want your parts for the black market.
To supply the Motorball games.
You were lucky.
Another girl was murdered last night, right near there.
Yeah, I heard that guy carves girls up...
and sells their body parts.
Sorry, Doc.
For now, I don't want you out after dark. Is that understood?
Okay.
And if you go out during the day,
don't wander too far from this neighborhood.
Okay.
Promise?
I promise.
Hey, kid.
Hey, what's your problem?
Who's the girl?
My new assistant.
I was surprised to see her in our daughter's body.
You were supposed to have destroyed that years ago.
- I couldn't. - Clearly.
And did you tell her who you built that body for?
Our daughter is dead, Chiren.
You need to let it go.
It's obviously not me that's clinging to something here.
Over here!
- Hugo. - Hey, Alita.
Is this Motorball?
It's just a scrimmage.
Do you wanna join in?
Come on, every kid's gotta play Motorball.
Sure, why not?
I want us to be a team again.
I have a great new setup...
and equipment...
worthy of your skills.
Together, we can build the finest champions this game has ever seen.
Could be my ticket home.
When are you going to realize there is no way back?
It just does not happen.
Vector can make it happen.
I can't believe you trust Vector.
He has very high connections.
I won't help you build monsters.
I'm going to get back to Zalem somehow.
I'll claw my way there with my bare hands if I have to.
Hey, everyone, this is Alita.
Hi.
Best way to learn is to go in.
Pass the ball!
That's it.
Lean into your turns, look for an opening.
I think I'm getting it!
You can let go of the remote now.
Oh, crap.
Come on, get her! Come on, get her!
Cut her off!
Koyomi, pass her the ball.
And she got it! She got it!
Get her!
Sorry, princess.
Nice, Tanji, thanks.
She's never played before.
Sorry.
Got this!
Mine!
You got me!
Good shot.
Your freak girlfriend's got some serious malfunctions.
I'm really sorry.
She humiliated you so severely.
All right, I'll see you tonight.
And, uh, she's not my girlfriend.
Whatever.
You've got some talent for this game.
I've got to get home now.
Ido wants me in the house before dark.
Do you want a ride?
So you can't remember anything?
I'm trying to.
Family, friends, favorite food?
Nothing. Well, maybe oranges.
But that's just since yesterday.
- Oranges? - Uh-huh.
Nope. Unacceptable.
Here, check this out.
Thank you very much, Senora.
And here you go.
Thank you.
You ready?
Try this.
Trust me.
It's chocolate.
- That is so great. - It's good, right?
I have a favorite food now.
Thank you. This is my favorite food.
Well, I wouldn't call it that.
I would.
Hey, look. Check it out.
It's a Hunter-Warrior.
He's a bounty hunter. Named Zapan.
Scanning for his mark.
I wouldn't wanna be that guy.
Look at that sword.
All guns are outlawed in Iron City.
Punishable by death.
Anything that challenges Zalem.
Didn't I tell you to be home before dark?
What's the big deal? I just lost track of time.
Yeah. Don't trust anyone.
People do terrible things to each other here.
What happened to your arm?
Here, eat this.
You okay?
You still need proper nourishment for your brain.
You have any chocolate?
It's a harsh world.
The strong prey on the weak down here.
You gotta stay focused on your dream.
What's your dream?
I'll show you.
This is my secret place.
Best view in town.
Wow.
Really cool.
No. Look.
That view.
Right.
I wonder what it's like up there.
Better than this dump down here.
Listen.
It's stuff from the Factory going up to Zalem.
But the tubes are just for cargo, not for people.
If I was as strong as you,
I'd climb that tube to Zalem right now.
They don't let anybody up there.
Yeah, that's what they want you to think.
You just gotta know the right people.
I happen to be connected.
You gotta be willing to do what it takes.
Whatever it takes.
Funny thing is, you've seen it.
You just can't remember.
What do you mean?
Doc found you in the Scrapyard.
All that stuff is dumped from Zalem.
So you must be from up there.
I guess so.
If you could just tell me what those eyes have seen.
I wish I could.
I keep trying to remember, but...
It's still a blank.
I'm starting to feel like I wasn't very important.
Just an insignificant girl thrown out with the rest of the garbage.
- No! Stop! - Alita!
Don't do it!
Oh, no.
It's a trap.
Looking for me, Doctor?
Or should I say, Hunter-Warrior?
"Hunter-Warrior"?
Oh, no.
Looks like he's got us.
Don't move.
Hey, thanks for bringing a girl.
That's gonna save us some time.
Nice shot, for a Meat-Boy.
No!
You came to rescue me?
That is so sweet.
You have nice eyes.
He's mine. You can have the girl.
So long as I get his eyes.
Alita, run!
My God.
Rip that flea!
You are so beautiful.
I wanna rip you open and see if you're ugly inside.
Like the others.
Watch her die.
Come here, little flea...
so I can pinch your head off.
99!
On your left!
You'll pay, little flea.
Grewishka does not forget.
I'm coming for you.
Both.
Grewishka does not forget!
When I was fighting, I remembered something.
I was in a huge battle.
You surprised me.
Well, you surprised me, too.
Before The Fall...
there were police to stop criminals.
Now, the Factory pays us to do the dirty work.
Hunter-Warrior 17739.
You are a Hunter-Warrior.
You stay here.
Don't kill anyone.
Bounty for the cyborg Nyssiana was 20,000 credits.
You should've told me who you really are.
And do you do it for the money?
I take the money.
Otherwise the clinic would've closed long ago.
I do this work for other reasons I'd rather not talk about.
You have to talk about it.
Something during the fight triggered a memory.
I was on the moon.
You know more about me than you're saying.
Whose body is this?
Who am I?
This was your daughter?
You built this body for her?
Her name was Alita.
She was really looking forward to waking up with legs that could run.
You built her a pair of fast legs.
She never got to use them.
She was murdered.
What happened?
A patient of mine came to the clinic one night, looking for drugs.
I was a tuner for the Motorball games...
and I had made a machine body for him of obscene strength.
He was my demon, coming back to me.
Hey! What are you doing there?
Alita couldn't get out of the way fast enough.
Her mother, Chiren,
couldn't deal with Alita's death.
Maybe she just couldn't deal with me.
So I went hunting.
I needed to kill him.
Maybe I was just hoping that he would kill me.
It brought no peace.
There were other demons like him out there...
and I felt, somehow, I was responsible for all of them.
So I registered as a Hunter-Warrior.
There's nothing noble about it.
Did you ever find peace?
I found you.
I'm not your daughter.
I don't know what I am.
I do.
Have a look at your original Cyber-core.
This is your brain.
A normal healthy teenage girl's brain.
If there is such a thing.
But this is your heart.
Part of your original core...
powered by an Anti-Matter Micro-Reactor.
So I've got a strong heart?
You have a heart strong enough
to power all of Iron City for years.
This is lost technology.
Nobody's made this stuff since...
before The Fall.
Yeah, right.
So I'm 300 years old?
Sweetheart, you are.
I don't want my players losing unless I tell them to.
It can't be left to chance.
You promised me champions.
And you promised me the best of everything.
Get those military servos I asked for.
You don't have a winning attitude.
Just be ready for tomorrow's game.
Help me.
Grewishka?
Why should I waste my talent on you?
Look what she's done to me.
Ido's little cyber girl.
What did you say?
The woman in my memory called me 99.
What you saw was a flash of your previous life.
Who was I?
In time, you'll remember.
I wanna rip her in half.
Grewishka.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
Are we stripping him for parts?
I need you to look at something.
It's a Telepresence Chip. He's wired.
Somebody in Zalem is riding him.
There are watchers behind the eyes all over the city.
Pretty common now.
I'd just as soon remove it...
while I'm rebuilding him.
Why are you wasting time on this burnt-out street junk?
It's a personal matter.
Do you like your job, Vector?
If you like your position and the many comforts that come with it...
I strongly suggest you listen to Dr. Chiren.
Nova.
My apologies.
Who did this to Grewishka?
A little cyborg girl.
Though the impact points are evidence of extraordinary power...
I don't understand how she could create such force with such a small body.
It was not the power of the body that did this.
It was the mind.
She knows the fighting techniques of Panzer Kunst.
Rebuild Grewishka.
Have him bring her to me.
Dead.
He's gone.
Not gone.
Repatched.
You're a clever woman, Doctor.
And determined to reach your goal at any cost.
So I'll make you this offer.
If and when you have pleased me...
I will grant you the destiny you seek.
Zalem.
You'll send me to Zalem?
I'm there right now.
Consider my services engaged.
There is no bounty on Grewishka.
But you reported it to the Factory.
Him killing all of those women...
Somebody's protecting him.
Who has the power to do that?
Someone far beyond us here.
We better stay off the street for now.
I wanna be a Hunter-Warrior like you.
Alita, that's impossible.
We could be a team.
Alita, this is dangerous, dirty work.
- I know. - No, you don't.
How is that your choice to make?
It's out of the question.
I might need a life-or-death situation
to remember who I was.
Even if it's just for a second.
Alita, some things are better left forgotten.
I don't want blood on these hands, too.
Then I'll find out for myself.
Alita.
I'm just tired of it.
He just wants me to be his perfect little girl.
So, you gonna live by his rules or yours?
What a battle!
These two have been going at each other all match.
Welcome to Motorball.
Jashugan has got the ball.
Claymore attacks!
Jashugan takes him out!
Masakus sends Jashugan flying!
Kutty now with the ball, one point.
Zariki is in hot pursuit.
Wipeout, Zariki!
And he throws Kutty like a rag doll!
Come on. Let me show you something.
I know all the pit crews and tuners.
I'll introduce you around.
Who's the top player?
Right now, I'd say Jashugan has the best chance of making Final Champion.
Camber's still off in the left bogie.
I was oversteering in turn six.
What's Final Champion?
It's the best thing a Motorball player can win.
Every few years, they choose a player that can't be beaten...
and he gets to go to Zalem.
Hey, Hugo.
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
Do it once, do it right.
Juggernaut needs to pit, right now.
Do you like to lose?
Then get him in here.
Claymore is a rebuild. Why is he not tracking?
Alita's here.
That's Vector.
He basically runs Motorball.
We do a lot of business with his team.
Selling parts to him and his new tuner.
Chiren.
Let's go, guys. Come on, get me back out there.
What? You're not the only one with connections.
Kutty closing in on Juggernaut.
Kinuba has Kutty in his sights.
Oh! Kinuba went through him like laundry with those Grindcutters.
Is that weapon even legal?
Kinuba's too strong with that new weapon.
He's screwing up the odds.
You know...
I could really use his Grindcutters...
for our other project.
Crimson Wind making her way through the field.
So, what do you think?
I like it.
Yo, Hugo. We gotta go.
Hey, something's come up.
- Where are you going? - I just gotta do something.
Can you get back okay?
Yeah, sure.
Can you go out tomorrow?
I wanna show you this place me and Tanji know.
It's out in the Badlands.
It might help with your memory.
I'd appreciate that.
Thanks.
For everything.
Wow! He is throwing down!
Oh, shit!
- What the hell? - Shit.
Hurry up!
You're dead!
You little runts!
I'm gonna smash your skulls!
You can't do this to me!
- Ready. - Give me.
Careful.
You street punks!
I'm gonna make you pay for this.
Nice work.
Compliments to your crew.
Thank you, sir.
I'll pass it on.
Hey, man, where's my cut?
Hey, when you gonna tell your hardbody you jack cyborgs, huh?
I'm not.
And neither are you.
You afraid she's gonna cut you loose?
Get the Grindcutters over to Chiren right away.
Use the service gate.
Go.
Vector, you prick.
I should've known.
What you should've known, my friend...
is that no one...
is greater than the game.
What's outside the city?
Not much.
The war wiped out all utilities and most everything else.
All we know is the sky cities fell all in one night...
when the enemy launched the last attack
with every ship they had.
Who was the enemy?
The URM.
United Republics of Mars. The U-R-M.
URM.
On that last night of the war...
the earth shook and the sky burned.
But in the morning, Zalem still stood.
It's just up ahead.
This ship is from the battle of Zalem.
I figured that maybe seeing stuff from the war would help trigger your...
Salvagers have jacked some stuff over the years for metal...
but it's all URM technology,
so it's mostly been left alone.
- This is an URM ship? - Uh-huh.
You know, it's pretty hard to sell this stuff
since no one knows what it is...
We have to go to the command deck.
It's forward.
How does she know that?
Hey, we can't get there. It's underwater.
How long do you think she can hold her breath?
I don't know.
Oh, this can't be good.
Forget it.
I won't do it.
But...
But you have to.
This would help us fight Grewishka
and anyone else he sends after us.
This body...
it has the power I need.
I feel a connection to it I can't explain.
This could be who I am.
You've been given a chance to start over, with a clean slate.
How many of us get that?
Why did an enemy warship...
respond to me?
Because I knew that ship.
I've been on others like it, haven't I?
Haven't I?
Ouf, whatever you were, it's not who you are now.
No!
I'm a warrior, aren't I?
And you know.
You've always known.
This is called a Berserker.
It's a humanoid weapon-system created by the URM Technarchy.
Your core was designed to interface with this type of body.
Your identity code activated it.
The instinctive fighting technique you use...
is Panzer Kunst, a lost combat art for machine bodies.
It was used by the Berserkers.
This is why you're drawn to conflict without hesitation.
It's part of your training.
You are not just a warrior, Alita.
You're an URM Berserker,
the most advanced cyborg weapon ever created.
And that is exactly why I will never unite you with this body.
That's fine.
Fine.
State your business.
I'm here to register as a Hunter-Warrior.
How'd it go?
You're a Hunter-Warrior, all right.
Doc's gonna be pissed.
Whose rules do I live by?
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you sure about this?
This place is just for bounty hunters, nobody else...
What do you think this is?
Besides, Ido says I'm drawn to conflict.
Oh. I remember you.
How's it going, little guy?
Good?
Just watch my back.
Oh, boy.
Hey, Zapan! Not the furniture.
What brings you in here, sweets?
Come to see the Hunters up close?
Not exactly.
Cupcake here is a bounty hunter.
What?
So, you went down,
you filled out your application forms...
you got your ID badge...
and now you're just like us, yeah?
Let me introduce you
to some of your professional colleagues.
This is Master Clive Lee of the White Hot Palm.
He has over 200 confirmed kills.
207.
Well, and this is Screwhead,
one of our most lethal bounty hunters.
And then, there's McTeague...
the Dogmaster, with his Hellhounds.
His biggest problem is having enough left to identify after,
so he can collect the bounty.
And then, there's me.
Zapan.
Keeper of the legendary Damascus Blade.
Honed to a monomolecular edge. It slices armor like butter.
Forged before The Fall by the lost arts of URM metallurgy.
And who did you kill to acquire it?
A Hunter-Warrior is a solitary predator.
You'll be competing against us for the kill.
You can see what you're up against.
Thanks.
I came to ask for your help...
against our common enemy, Grewishka.
He's being protected by the system,
and continues to rampage unchecked.
And now, he's after Ido and me.
So I'm calling on you...
my Hunter-Warrior brothers.
Let's band together and defeat him once and for all.
Any takers? Hmm?
No?
Big surprise.
You know, normally, I wouldn't take a rookie under my wing...
share my knowledge.
I'm willing to make an exception in your case...
if you'll cut loose Meat-Boy over here
and let me buy you a drink.
Hey, watch it.
And what could I learn from a loudmouth pretty boy...
who spends all of his money on his face?
Maybe I'll pull your arms and legs off,
roll your head around in the street.
Maybe that'll teach you some manners.
You might mess up your hair.
You gonna take that, Zapan?
He's scared of the pretty girl.
You do not deserve such a weapon.
I heard you were the heroes of Iron City.
I am not impressed.
What the hell are you doing?
I'm gonna need you to stand way back.
I will take on anyone in this room.
And if I win...
you fight alongside me.
This bitch broke my nose.
Yes, I did.
Heroes?
All I see are junkyard punks, assorted cyber-trash...
and a bunch of drunken Motorball burnouts
too slow to play the game.
Thanks, Hugo.
Oh, no.
Hold it!
Knock it off!
Or no more free repairs!
I'm with her.
Sorry about this.
You and I are going to have a little talk.
No, we had our talk.
You didn't leave me another choice.
Don't move.
It's Grewishka.
What's happened to him?
Well, to answer your question...
I've had a little upgrade.
I'm only here for the girl.
Ah, she's all yours.
What about the rest of you?
There ain't no bounty on this guy, Doc.
Not our problem.
It's all right, Ido.
The only one with courage.
So innocent.
Iron City is no place for innocents, little flea.
I do not stand by in the presence of evil.
Come to my world.
Come, little flea.
Alita! No!
Welcome to the underworld. My world.
From here, there are worlds above worlds above worlds...
going farther up than you can imagine.
And the trash of each one flows down to the one below...
'til it all ends up here.
It's where I used to live.
And it's where you're going to die.
Dance, little flea.
I was forgotten here to rot.
But I was saved...
remade...
by the same hand that shapes your destiny even now.
Whose hand?
My master, Nova.
What do you know about me?
You have the soul of a survivor.
You'll never give up.
Know what is hidden.
Always ask...
what is it that you are not seeing?
Nova?
He is the dragon that must be slain.
Again.
Look at you.
Where are you going?
What's the matter?
My little toy doesn't want to play anymore?
I'll turn you into a living pendant
to adorn my chest.
Then I can hear your voice every moment of the day...
pleading for mercy!
Fuck your mercy.
No!
Break off!
He wasn't a dog lover. I hate that.
Oh, come on.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
You think you can replace us that easily?
Bring her back as many times as you like.
No one will dare harm you again.
It's the adaptive technology of the Berserker body.
The shell is reconfiguring
to her subconscious image of herself.
I've never seen anything like it.
It's making micro-adjustments throughout every system.
Looks like she's a little older than you thought.
Well, look at you.
Well, you were right.
A warrior's spirit needs a warrior's body.
It draws in air, generating an arc plasma...
but how you control it, I don't know.
Didn't exactly come with a manual, did you?
It's some kind of weapon.
Now you know who you are.
But that's just a shell.
It's not bad or good.
That part's up to you.
Check these out.
Pretty fresh, right?
Alita!
Wow.
You're...
- Back together? - Very back together.
You look...
different.
It's all nanotech.
It's a bunch of stuff even Ido hasn't figured out yet.
So are you stronger than you were?
Yeah. And faster, too.
It feels...
more me.
You know, some guys might be intimidated by a girl like you.
Really? Why is that?
'Cause you could rip my arm off and beat me with the wet end.
Well, then, don't piss me off.
Why don't you like her?
I just never got the whole hardbody thing.
And besides, she's URM.
It means she was probably the enemy at one point.
Yeah, 300 years ago.
Get over it.
I'm a lot more touch sensitive, too.
A lot higher density of force feedback and...
texture sensors.
You wanna try it?
You can feel this?
Yes.
Close your eyes.
How about this?
Yes.
Where am I now?
You're...
with me.
Does it bother you...
that I'm not completely human?
You are the most human person I have ever met.
He won't even let me fix his eye.
He says he wants the pain.
Enough.
Nova.
You have failed me.
Stand.
You will never triumph until you understand what she is.
She's the last of her kind.
The finest weapon of the URM Technarchy.
I need you to destroy this Alita.
I need you to bring me her heart.
I live only for her death.
I hate when he does that.
This is not a man who tolerates failure.
I'm not trusting my future to a piece of iron.
What do you have in mind?
To dreams.
I like your drive, Hugo.
You have a solid future with my team.
My future's in Zalem.
I remember your promise every day.
To send me up.
When I get you a million credits.
Personally...
I'd rather rule in hell than serve in heaven.
We'd be at the bottom of the food chain up there,
but down here...
we can live like kings.
So...
Tell me about this friend of yours.
Alita?
Is that her name?
Alita.
Hi.
What happened to you?
I wound up hanging out with Vector.
Some alcohol was involved.
Apparently.
So, Vector?
Is that your connection for getting into Zalem?
Yeah.
I was hoping maybe you'd wanna stay.
Hey, it's not right away.
I still gotta raise the rest of the money first.
It's okay.
It's your dream.
I know it's what you've always wanted.
You know...
I was always so sure.
Now you come along...
nothing's clear anymore.
How much more do you need before you can go?
90k.
90k?
I can make that in bounties.
I'll just figure out who has the highest prices on their heads...
and then I'll take them out.
No, I can't ask you to do that for me.
I'd do whatever I had to for you.
I'd give you whatever I have.
What are you doing?
I'd give you my heart.
Take it.
It's got an URM Micro-Reactor for a power supply,
probably worth millions.
With your connections, you can find a buyer...
you could make enough for both of us to go to Zalem...
and then we just find a cheap replacement...
No.
Come on, you buy and sell parts all day long.
Don't just do things for people.
No matter how good you think they are,
or how deserving they are.
It's all or nothing with me.
This is who I am.
I know.
It's okay.
Put it back.
That was pretty intense, huh?
Yeah, that was very intense.
Sorry.
Maybe there's another way.
Vector wants you to try out for Second League.
What?
You become a big Motorball star,
make a pile of money...
we can go to Zalem together.
What are you talking about?
I can't be a pro Motorball player.
Ali.
you could be a champion.
You win this tryout...
every scout will be killing each other to get to you.
We'll be home free.
Only if you'll be my coach.
Well, if that's what it takes.
That's what it takes.
Are you going to kill her?
No.
Much worse.
Ido, can a human love a cyborg?
Why?
Does this cyborg love a human?
Mm-hmm.
A human can love a cyborg...
but you have to keep your mind on the game, Alita.
It can get very rough out there.
Even for a tryout.
Try these.
Did you make these for me?
Yes.
They won't make you any faster. It's regulation.
But at least they won't fail you.
Here's our deal.
You go in there, you race,
you win, you come back right here.
You wear all of these pads, especially this one.
I don't need all this crap.
Yes, you do.
Remember...
if you wreck this body, I can't fix it.
- This is URM technology. - Yes, I know.
Now, go find a place to watch, because you're making me nervous.
Good luck.
Bye.
Thank you for coming on such short notice.
You are the scum of the game.
But tonight, you are handpicked scum.
Because tonight is not a game.
It is a hunt.
I'm paying 500,000...
to the one who kills the girl called Alita.
Hey.
Where are you? The tryout's about to start.
I'm on my way.
There's something I've gotta do first.
I'm doing this for us, remember?
You can't miss it.
I won't. Trust me.
Please, just stop.
I didn't do anything to you.
It's just business. Nothing personal.
Tanji, stop!
Using my name?
Man, what's wrong with you?
I can't do this anymore.
What's the matter? You're already gone half the time.
Now you show up with this line of crap!
It's the little hardbody, isn't it?
Listen, it's over. Do you understand?
I'm out.
And if you had any brains, you'd leave this behind, too.
I'm out.
For good.
You should've jacked that bitch when you had the chance.
Would've been on your way to Zalem right now.
Well, very professional.
Hey, man, we don't want any trouble.
If this is your mark, we're sorry. He's all yours.
Hugo.
Jacking cyborgs.
Your little girlfriend might take that kind of personally, don't you think?
But you know girls.
She'll probably get all weepy and forgive you...
when I show her your head.
There's no marker out on me.
There will be.
Murder pulls a tight little bounty...
even with gutter trash like you.
I never killed anyone.
You just did.
She thinks she can punk me, huh?
Hugo, run!
Next up is Second League tryouts.
Will the Factory practice team report to the line?
The winner tonight will make it one step closer...
to qualifying for the Champions League.
Well, that is one tough lineup.
This is gonna be one heck of a match tonight.
That's no Factory team.
What?
These two punks in the back...
there are bounty markers on them.
And the other guys, they are Hunter-Warriors.
And here comes tonight's one new prospect.
Okay, then, folks, give it up for Alita!
Hugo brought her right to us.
What'd you promise him?
I'm sending him to Zalem, of course.
Alita! Alita!
Hey.
Since there is only one new prospect...
- What's up? - ...there will be no teams.
The name of the game is Cut-throat.
Go easy on me, guys.
Sure, kid.
No worries.
- Alita! - What are you doing?
It's a setup. You gotta get outta there.
They're gonna kill you!
Which ones?
All of them!
Players, 10-second warning.
Five seconds...
The new kid, Alita,
takes possession right off the snap.
A slow Tuesday night just got hotter than the playoffs.
Looks like the fans have themselves
an underdog darling...
with the face of an angel and a body built for battle.
Maybe a little Motorball will break out in the middle of this fight.
Oh, crap.
Oh! Looks like it's "No rules Tuesday" out there, folks.
Ouch! You know that hurts!
Stinger's got Alita in a lot of trouble.
She must've said something in the locker room
that these guys did not like.
Number 99...
Alita!
Ali, it's me.
I've got a big problem.
Hugo, this is not a good time.
He's trying to kill me.
Who's trying to kill you?
Zapan, the Hunter-Warrior.
He killed Tanji.
What do you mean?
Now, he's coming for me.
Not sure our Battle Angel can get out of this one.
Oh, shit. Here he comes!
Where are you?
I'm headed to the old church.
Okay. I'm coming.
I can't believe it! Incredible!
I've never seen anything like this.
Hey, I'm almost there.
Got it.
Where are you going, huh?
Looks like your Hugo hasn't been entirely honest with you.
Is it true?
Ali.
you don't understand.
I never killed anyone.
We only jacked parts.
We paralyzed them and stripped them, that's all.
I needed the money for Zalem.
Step aside and let me do my job.
Touch him again and I will kill you.
Interference between a licensed Hunter-Warrior and his kill...
is a violation of Factory Law and the Hunter's Code.
He's mine!
Then make the kill.
Come on, Hunter-Warrior.
Tonight, you become one of us.
You know, there's no room for love or mercy in the Hunter's Code.
Let me make it easier for you.
Hugo!
Deliver the criminal Hugo, Bounty 9107.
Wanted for the crime of murder.
You better finish him before we do!
It's Hunter Law!
I have to get you to Ido.
No. Centurions.
If you go back out there with me alive,
they'll kill us both.
What did you do? What did you do?
I didn't kill that guy.
But what does it matter?
I tore people apart.
People like you, for money.
Where were you tonight?
I went to go stop the others.
- And tell them I quit. - Why?
Because I love you.
God, I'm sorry.
Did you find them?
No.
They're gone.
You're so cold. Please don't die.
Please don't.
I'd give him my life if I could.
Maybe you can.
You have violated Factory Law and the Hunter's Code
by protecting a wanted felon.
Where is the criminal Hugo, Bounty 9107?
Hugo is dead.
I claim the bounty.
Hunter-Warrior 26651.
Claim confirmed.
Yeah, that's a cute trick.
You think this is gonna work, huh? Hmm?
Give me that.
Violation.
Hunter-Warrior Zapan...
stealing another's bounty
is against Factory Law and the Hunter's Code.
Thanks.
My face.
My... My face!
My face!
No!
How is he?
This city corrupts even good people.
He's good.
He's stable.
Chiren's surgical technique was brilliant.
There's no brain damage.
Vector was running a scam.
If you're born on the ground, you stay on the ground...
and no amount of money can change that.
The only one way to get from the lower world to Zalem...
is to become Final Champion.
You can't buy your way up there.
But how do you know that for sure?
I was born there.
I've removed it myself, the Mark of Zalem.
With our daughter's illness,
Chiren and I were forced to descend here to Iron City.
And the man responsible for our exile...
the watcher behind the eyes...
is Nova.
You had her heart in your hands...
and you let her live.
- I did. - Why?
Because I'm a doctor.
And...
I'm a mother.
And somehow I forgot that.
I can't do this anymore.
I'm out.
Chiren, wait.
Don't you think it's time you went to Zalem?
I could send you up there right now.
What I want...
it isn't up there.
I have to do something.
I'll come back for you.
This is my fault.
Don't ever feel sorry for yourself.
You're the only one built for this.
Thank you, Father.
Vector!
Hostile intention detected.
Surrender your weapon.
Security report.
Violation! Violation!
Did you get her?
Security?
You were never going to send Hugo to Zalem, were you?
I always keep my promise to send people up.
Like Dr. Chiren here.
Nova demands body parts for his experiments.
Especially, the brains of people he admires.
And that is the only way anyone ever gets to Zalem.
It took you long enough.
I knew you wouldn't wait for your fate to find you, little flea.
Get up.
Defense Ring!
Finish the mission.
Destroy Zalem.
I know who my enemy is.
And I know he's watching us now.
And you're just his slave.
And I'm just an insignificant girl.
Speak.
No. No. No. Wait.
Speak!
What do you want me to say? I will say anything.
Not you.
Him!
So we finally meet, Alita.
Not your real name, of course.
Nova?
Where are you?
Home. As we speak.
Feet up.
Well, my girl, you've certainly exceeded my expectations.
Killing my champion Grewishka.
Most impressive.
And turning a selfish creature like Chiren.
I didn't see that coming.
So, when you walk out of here, the Factory won't stop you.
This time.
I don't need your permission to live.
Others might.
Your Dr. Ido, for example.
And what about Hugo?
He's still alive, isn't he?
We will track him down.
I've found the only way to enjoy immortality...
is to watch others die.
You just lost a puppet.
Well, that looks fatal.
No matter.
Vector was getting tiresome.
You've made the biggest mistake of your life.
And what's that?
Underestimating who I am.
Then until next time.
Remember.
I see everything.
Alita.
Factory enforcers came looking for Hugo.
Somehow they knew he'd been kept alive.
I helped him escape, but they've sealed the city.
- They're going to find him. - Where is he?
He's trying to go up.
Hugo!
Hugo.
Hugo!
Stop.
You have to come down. We can't stay up here.
There's a bounty on me. This is the only way.
No, this is dangerous. We have to get down, now.
If I go back down there, I'm dead.
No. You have to listen to me, okay?
I've been right here before.
This is exactly where Nova wants you.
He's using you to get to me.
Come on, we have to go back down.
We belong up there, Alita.
We don't belong anywhere except together.
You'll always be running.
Together.
Come with me.
Please.
We could be free.
Okay.
No!
Hold on.
I got you.
Okay, okay. Don't move.
Don't move.
I'm gonna lift you up slowly.
Thank you...
for saving me.
I love you.
No!
It took her only a few months...
to rise through the ranks of the Second League.
And tonight, she makes her first appearance
in the Champions League.
Where she has a chance at becoming Final Champion...
and going to Zalem.
Alita! Alita! Alita!
Let's hear it for the Battle Angel herself...
number 99...
Alita!
Alita! Alita! Alita!
