Elton John used to sing like this... Still one of the best moments in Mars Chronicles imho. I'm actually curious about getting to know more about Grunthal.

I'm surprised you haven't considering you're the one who keeps saying "octopus lips" in the movie thread

Iirc Figure is the first one to make that comment in BAA but then in Last Order it effectively becomes her nickname

It's just so distinct from how every other manga character ever has been consistently drawn.

I don't think it'd work in a live-action movie, though, because it'd just make her look like a creepy sex doll. The huge eyes barely works as it is.

At least they made it so Alita isn't the only character with them, they made it Martian physiology and I think that was a good choice

The lips seem to be an aspect of what Kishiro considers to be part of the Beautiful Lady visual appearance when you look at Eelai, Caerula, and so forth.

If the other Tuned cyborgs are Alita clones, why don't they also have the octopus lips?

While Mars Chronicle still ain't doing much for me, I do appreciate Kishiro taking a few pages in the middle of his high-concept science fiction punchmans serial to stop and talk about balls.

I feel like he made them at the beginning because he thought it would be neat but didn't know what to do with them from then on.

I found a thing floating around I can't place. It's labeled as "Gunnm: Another Story - Bashaku Ando". What's this and where does it slot in the reading order?

Description on mangadex says they're short stories from the late 90s and early 00s for part 1.

What's this and where does it slot in the reading order? there's a timeline with the version released in "Holy Night & Other Stories" and it puts them: a few years before Ido digs her up, a bit after motorball wraps up, during the TUNED stuff, and that one just before when Last Order begins Assessor of Maat fucked around with this message at 00:43 on Apr 23, 2023 |

This seems like something different. It's a single story: 61pg 1-shot. Starts off with something about Master Den.

Sorry for bumping the thread and getting everyone's hopes up, but reports about updates were that the author was taking a break until Spring 2023, then decided to extend it to the Summer, so, hopefully, soon?

Gee, I stopped reading after I heard of the big hiatus. I wonder if now's a good time to dive back in where I left off! Actually, I think I should reread/order all the Mars Chronicle volumes up till now to refresh my memory. A nice excuse to dive into Kishiro's wacky world again.
