If there is a manga I've loved, is this one. I remember when I first opened its pages and found that half angel half cyborg laying on ruins... it blew me away. In "Battle Angel Alita" we follow the satory of a combat cyborg from another plante called Alita, who gets picked from a pile of debris by a scientist named Ido, who decides to reconstruct her and does much more than just that as he begans to be a paternal figure for the sweet Alita. Because she is a gentle sweet creature until she has to defend Ido and herself and something like muscle memory springs fort and shows us how brutal Alita can really be. But she is not only brutality, as all she does is tempered by her concience and her beliefs.

Alita is just one of these series I love. We follow the story of this cyborg trying to reconstruct her life, remember her past and find her humanity alongside her place on the world. And all the chacraters she finds on her journey, be they good or bad, are so full of life and so real, that is just amazing.
