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 postapocalyptic world of the Scrapyard, as the secrets of Alita's past unfold, each day is a struggle for survival.

BAA Last Order Vol 16
Dec 12 2012
By Robin A Moore
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Qualification - I've been reading the series since 1995. It's one of the few things I still bother to collect but this is now out of nostalgia and loyalty only.
Wow I thought it was a long time between releases, it's been over a year since Vol. 15 and I can see that the publisher has changed from Viz. At least Vol 17 is only in 2 months now and Vol 18 on July 2, 2013. It's hard to recommend this series to anyone other than those who have been there since the start. I've lost track of how long the battle between Alita and the Space Karate group has been going but it is far too long. It's just explosions and movement with no real story. Ok Sechs is learning to use the Fizziroy body but there's not a lot of emotion to anyone as a character. Alita does undergo one episode in quantum mechanics but there needs to be more of this type of content and less combat - this section saves the volume from an otherwise pointless volume.
Hell the Motorball section from the original series was one of the best parts but it only spanned two volumes - Killing Angel and Angel of Victory. Please finish the ZOTT in Vol 17 and then finalise the whole series in Vol 18. If this goes beyond 20 volumes I'll vomit.

And the saga continues to drag on

Will this story ever end? Of course not. Everything that came before the "Last Order" series was so much better. This is the continuation of a bloated story line that is going nowhere.

Do you really need to read this review?

Like everyone else who's reviewed no. 16, we're in this because we've come so far that we may as well just finish the series.
I'm not sure if anyone will consider this a spoiler, but this volume continues with the pattern of:
1. "Now you will face my X move"
2. "Huh? I see you were able to counter my X move with Y"
3. "Hah, you think you can get away with using something as simple as Y to defeat me?"
4. "Now you will face my Z move"
5. Go back to 2.
I'm fine with the art. I think there's a little context given with regard to characters that you haven't seen for the better part of 2012, but that's about all the character moments you'll get.
Roll on No. 17....
