This was... definitely not as good as the first one. Actually it feels like a completely different manga during their entire stay in Jeru/Ketheres. Which is, well, pretty much all of it. It does have its moments, but overall, it's just not the same thing.

Agreed. I enjoyed it a lot, but it doesn't hold a candle to the first series.

I'll reiterate what I posted in "The Great Machine" comment section. The official omnibuses from Kodansha Comics USA contain oneshots at the end of every omnibus from Kishiro's early days as well as some oneshots made during Alita's initial serialization, if that interests anyone.
As an addendum, the Kodansha omnibuses are collected versions of the Viz translation from the 2000s, which is noticeable by how the SFX are translated (which is unusual for Kodansha unless it's Ichi-F or Vinland Saga), and because it's a 2000s translation there'll be some wonkiness (still reads fine for the most part, however). The single tankos from Volume 16 and onward are completely new translations and releases from Kodansha as the contents from those were serialized in their "Evening" magazine.
Just thought I should let everyone know.

Am I the only one here thinking these scans' quality is really subpar? I really want to read this manga but the first chapters are too painful to look at. I wasn't able to find any good scans of them anywhere on the web, be it in French or English. Guess I'm gonna have to shell out for the real deal, for once...
