Gunnm is considered a classic , I can see why ,I guess . It has a very interesting setting and intriguing world,but that's it.
The story was not bad,it was not good either.First of all ,there was not an antagonistic force to push the narrative.In each arc ,Gally(Alita) had different goals and things to fight for ,while that's not necessary a bad thing ,not having a final destination is a minus for me, especially in a story that focuses on battles .
The art is pretty damn good ,honestly it's the manga's best aspect .It was pretty enjoyable and really easy to read.Movement was nice and clean.Nonetheless ,I couldnt get characters' emotions and feelings through it enough.
Gally had huge potential as a character ,but it was wasted.The way she develops is done in a unnatural and forced way ,which makes it feel straight up stupid.Except for that ,most characters were pretty average and bold.Many of them just disappeared ,because the author just wanted to change the cast ,which is an annoying fact.Jashugan was probably my favourite character in the series ,he was pretty cool and authentic .
Overall ,while I had my problems with Gunnm ,it was fun to read not gonna lie. I would recommend it as a chill read with pretty good art.
