Between alita's execution and her remake as the angel of tiphares is a ten year period, i learn that this volume! i am not sure if it was mentioned last volume and i forgot or something.
What is the secret of tiphares that made doctor ido erase his own memory?
I hope alita kills desty nova.
I also hope that we tie all loose ends in the next and last volume.
We learn that Tiphares is so formidable they don't even need alita to beat the barjack, they beat them themselves easily, they were never in danger from the barjack cannon, they made 10 more efficient copies of alita, its just a no contest at this point.

This is one of the few books, and few manga series, where at one point I had to put the book down and 'walk it off' a bit: It was that emotionally shocking. But due to the understanding company of my coworkers (who have been through the same), I walked it off, finished the book, and immediately began the ninth and final book in this particular series!

Zalem has created replicas of Alita to use as secret weapons. Alita must fight against the clones and Desty Nova. This volume was quite interesting. We have an epic fight against the clones. Alita is also trying to rescue Kaos from Desty Nova. Lots of action packed scenes like usual but this one also had a lot of sadness. Alita is finally reunited with Ido. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen next, especially since it is the last volume.

4.25 stars. Dang that was fast paced! A whole lot happened in not a lot of time. Definitely the most disturbing of all the volumes as well
