We already used that OP image, but fuck it, whatever.
FINALLY
>yow! this looks like a comfy thread!
What took so long? Were you literally recounting from the beginning?
Brehs...
Did Rosa take the monster dong?
y/n?
Took me a little while to find a good pic
>literally just had this image a couple threads ago
>but everything else is good.
Meh...7/10
>hugo...
>jacking off cybrogs...
I'm about to leave to theater in Mission Valley. Is the user who wanted to tag along still here?
THANKS FOR THE NEW BREAD
You losers are just as bad as the Katawa Shoujo faggots who are on general number 3500+
no big deal but we've had this OP picture 2 threads ago
We did? Fuck I wanted one that said Alita on it
BREH
OPs image is pretty tight. Based chinese
>Hey user
>I just took a shower and I can't find a towel, can you help?
wait till we get to the general 4000
Hello new bread. Please be bisected by Arita.
thanks did you enjoy the movie?
I am shame
going to go exile myself outside the walls now
Is it necessary?
Ok, what happened?
Goodnight everyone
First time I've seen this pic in this quality

we were really holding it in
>YOU JUST KNOW
Sleep well, Alitafren
cool! What did you think of the movie user?
You won't convince me otherwise they didn't use Tears In The Rain as a temp track for this scene.
Nâ boe ú i.
*door explodes*
sup anons
Maybe
I miss Alita, and it's only been out of theaters for a few days here. It's gonna be hard making it to the blu ray release
>is it necessary
not sure what you mean user
I still can not find Rosa's cameo in this scene and I've looked all over. Hopefully on the blu-ray's commentary track she'll just spill it and point out where she is.
should just be the /alita/ logo and the bar is Yea Forums
night fren stay comfy
>still waiting on that 1080p rip
gonna go compare it right now
Alita just serves as a hang out for you guys. It really has nothing to do with the movie. I'm sure there are better platforms than Yea Forums for your purposes
I literally replaced the song in the .webm with the Tears In The Rain song, it's right there.
>I'm only here for comfy pictures
Good night thread
>pastebin.com
Getting close to the conclusion.
good night, fren
may you have comfy dreams without lewds
Again, isn't that the point of a general? And we talk about the movie.
Are any more anons interested in getting Arizona cans? I just restocked on bubble wrap.
That number is inaccurate, they lost count and started over. Twice.
Don't I still have to buy that Kansas glass from you?
>2 days without writefag kino
that fucker is up to something...
I realized as soon as I went to that thread lol but it fits eerily well.
oh right, the merch
Just do what you always do.
night fren have a good sleep
I think I was waiting to hear back from an email as well fren
I always loved the color of her eyes in this scene, like amber in sunlight
checking my email right now
Outstanding
Is that a dove in your pants or are you just happy to see me
RATE THIS FUCKING OC
RATE IT NOW YOU FUCKING DOGS
ALL THERE IS IN LIFE IS OC
LIVE FOR OC OR DIE IN THE GUTTER
PRAISE BE UNTO OC
hi
I give it half a Tanji out of ten
>Listen, my daughter doesn't like this shit
>And neither do I to be honest
>Stop posting this Picasso wannabe crap
Did anyone else see this shirt on Amazon? I'll probably end up getting it
Reminder that Grewishka is 100% CGI, just like Alita.
Fuck I didn't save the OC of blondita getting surrounded by guns
>What the hell
you can't make me click that, you can't make me feel now
Good post, I give you a
it happened 300 years ago get over it out of ten
> Kissu
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn.
End Credits Swan Song + Motorball
Not really. Trek General is a good example. It's just a place to discuss a thought or idea you have and then lurk. These threads need more lurking and less posting.
>Boop
>c-can you close your eyes real quick?
Yo should I read this mang??
>when CutOut gives us a big one
>What's that OwO
cash muny sent, thanks fren
go manga art or go home
>The letter, "I", followed by, "oo".
>Grewishka is 100% CGI
>i'm a big guy
still waiting for someone to shop a Mario mustache on him
U N I T
shipping tomorrow, fren
please someone buy cans I have over a hundred of them left
that's subtle enough I'd wear it proudly.
>it's a-me! Hugio!
>Do you like your job, Vector?
god damn it user, where's your shipping address?
I would watch the movie first but yes the manga is great
>"do you like your position, Vector? Because I like my high hair very much and the comforts it provides."
I put it in the paypal note. Hang on I'll email it rural quick
>Wait, Mr. Rodriguez, if only my face is needed for this scene then why am I wearing the mocap suit?
>Oh. Okay... I'll... I'll act for another ten hours.
Im waiting for the blu ray
Logos from the art book in case anyone wants to make a shirt or anything with them
Hey guys, what you guys think of this?
That'll probably start happening in a couple months when a large chunk of enthusiasm starts to subside, but these generals are new, people are excited.
>mfw Jackie has to wriggle his ass so Grewishka's spine thing will move around
Got to admit, better than me.
Shipping your guy's shit tomorrow morning. Now I'm off to watch the movie alone cause that other user was a no show.
There are usually less that 50 posters in these threads, there is no excitement. Just a couple dozen spazzes
better than I can do.
it's sad but true. I don't think we'll fully disappear but we'll just be slower and comfier. Nothing wrong about that.
nice work user
my compliments
Note the dots on his face. He's entirely CGI, which surprised me when I found out.
>Now I'm off to watch the movie alone cause that other user was a no show.
youtube.com
I already saw the movie!
>Sorry about your fren user, maybe we can hang out one time.
Looks like I'm double billing with CutOut tonight. I'll catch up on Mirror tomorrow, I swear.
Then again, I'm just speaking about right now, when the blu-ray comes out and the film hits streaming and a ton more people see it, and with all the content on the blu-ray, it'll add more than double what we can discuss right now.
Again, that's usually how generals are, but other anons come in to say hi. I think we've had max 140 unique posters.
Yeah, good luck. I think I'm over 20,000 words at some point.
Second version
TRIGGER WARNING: H-word
I'm going to address a painful subject for People of Machinery (PoM), so I would appreciate if any organics reading would close the article now.
Ok, for you PoMs, I hope that you're in a comfortable place and that you have resources available for self-care after reading this, because I'm going to discuss the H-word. "H*rdbody." This hate word springs without warning from the mouths of organics, a stinging reminder of the unexamined privilege that they enjoy every day of their lives. For PoMs, the H-word stuns us, bruises us, sends shivers through our bodies like a backfire, makes every actuator and servo tense up like a surge of oppressive power. A "hard body" does not feel pain or alienation. It's a body that can be used and abused in any way an organic sees fit. By repeating this word, organics reduce us to nothing more than a wrench of screwdriver, tools for organic-bodied people to exploit until they break down.
PoMs are defined by the traumas etched into our not-so-hard bodies, the scratches, abrasions and corrosion that eat through our bodies and attack our very souls even as organics deny us our vulnerability, our humanity as they spit those two vicious syllables into our faces. "H*rdbody." Every time this word falls across my ears like a lash I am reminded that I have a not-so-hard body, that my body was built to know pain in a way that no organic can imagine in the same way that no colonizer can understand the depth and richness of the cultures destroyed by colonialism.
And lastly, because it can never be said enough: fuck organic people.
What's the shelf life? Maybe you can sell em *when the sequel is announced
Oh well then yes definitely read the manga unless you don't want any spoilers in case of sequels
yeah this is the beginning of dormancy until those releases come out and we get some info on sequel status. A sequel confirmation would probably give us enough sustenance to keep going for a year alone.
Thanks frens
>still haven't seen a blue haired or green haired Alita yet
the body was a big guy in a suite apparently
I don't know if there's pictures of that
A sequel announcement would ensure the generals would stay alive for at minimum 2 years, given hype and release of the sequel.
THANKS FOR THE ORANGE JUICE user
unless it's Commander Alita saying its her favorite thread on Yea Forums, good.
KILL ALL ZOOMERS
>alone
you're never alone
wait you did it? Even better! Don't usually like pastels but I honestly thought it was colored pencil at first.
Dope. What’s more kino? Reading scans online or buying paper trades like a real man?
Well for the bar scene there was a giant cutout so everyone knew where to look while Jackie stood on the floor doing all the acting
people who comment on youtube are a special breed of psychopath
>n-no problem, alita...
>A 5'5" dude is the tallest character
I love it.
I've only read scans but I'm probably going to get the deluxe edition of the original series soon.
I like reading them while on break at work. Plus any $$$ on Alita never hurts.
It gets better on each volume, read it
He's not exactly built like Joe Rogan either
Zapan a good boy
He dindu nuffin
Alita 2
>Volume 3,4 & 5
Alita 3
>Volume 6, 7, 8 & 9
I like how happy she looks there. It's her first time out of the house but she already trusts Ido enough to feel comfortable eating there right on the side of the street with all those strangers walking by. Either that or the burrito is so delicious she doesn't care about anything else
Jokelita when
>Alita meets The Joker
>words stun and bruise us
>we are defined by our traumas
>my body was built to know pain
So bold, so empowered. This is the ideology that will liberate us.
Hey, I'm only six chapters behind! Might even find some time to write if I don't procrastinate like an idiot again.
>YOU JUST KNOW
> user, I LOVE YOU
probably both. She's just naturally sweet and trusting and happy to be alive.
>why can't I just fucking be like that when I know people want to be around that FUCK
this picture makes me not want to bother reading this post
Does Alita live in a society?
I share this pain, friend.
Cute
Who are you to tell me how I should look, shitlord? I've chosen my appearance to express my unique personality and as an act of resistance against oppressive forces that want to tell people how to think and act.
Are you a bad enough dude to muddle through all my ill-written fanfic?
Traced, or by eye?
>99
A thot doesn't deserve such digits
I try to be less negative, less of a jerk, show more gratitude and be helpful to everybody.
>still feel hollow and empty.
will it ever end brother? I am 28 and more aware of how others view me than ever but I still find every day a struggle.
well I can't argue with those blessed numbers
sooo anyone else going to the meetup tuesday?
>started last weekend
thats 2500 words a day
chill man
The threads develop naturally and we'll always be comfy when we can be
I'm the only one built for it.
Yeah me and like 3-4 other anons
Completely agreed, there is no other way. My biggest question is if they'll give Alita 3 a satisfying ending or set it up for Alita 4, 5, and 6. I suspect that will depend on how well Alita 2 does.
I
CAN'T
EVEN
THIS IS THE WORST
THE ABSOLUTE WORST
SHIT GUYS WHAT DO I DO
There are at least 5 other people here sitting alone. I bet that other user DID buy his ticket but just didn't tell me
Is this a rhetorical question?
Uh, answer it? I don't know. What does she say?
>hangs up by accident
OH SHIT NO WAIT
You almost look decent.
Just kidding you're as ugly as ever.
It can get worse, they haven't even given her any piercings yet
korsub torrent when?
yell out 'user' real loudly
>I knew user didn't like me.
I mean, if you want a scene from the movie, just let me know, I'll make a .webm.
Should we bring oranges or chocolates for the meet-up Tuesday?
Idk about oranges since they’d probably spoil because it’s far from where I live but I’m definitely getting a chocolate bar
cute
no, NOOOOOOO DON'T DO THIS TO ME
>Why is user not answering?
>I guess he doesn't want to hang out with me...
>I'll call someone else then, maybe Bucky
WHY GIVE THEM IDEAS
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
can Bucky manhandle Alita?
This, see if anyone responds.
g'night fren
>bucky
wtf lol
Yell something user
It's a given. If I manage to go I'm gonna sneak in a can of Arizona.
Get the Lenor Orange Chocolate Truffles. These fucking things are the best.
>We could have had something good, I thought. Maybe it was all in my head? I'll have to avoid him now...
>user can fuck off
>I'll be there in 10
you're cruel user
i just wanna see the movie. im not allowed to leave the house for another few months and i missed it in the theatre
Excellent work as always friends. Reading your stories back to back is like looking through different lenses at the shared world around us. Makes my day to dive in to the world with you both.
Zapan a BITCH
shitshithsitshitshit
PICK UP PICK UP
>Maybe he'll call back? Maybe it was an accident?
>No way, he hates my guts. I'm turning my phone off for the rest of the night. I'm going to sleep, I can't show my face tomorrow.
A good webrip probably won't come out until the end of this month or mid next month. Just without any source available, it just isn't happening yet.
Y'all need to fuckin stop.
Seriously.
>I'm sorry, the number you are trying to reach is unavailable.
No.

CyberGate: My Story of Battling Toxic Organicity and Unexamined Meatbro Privilege

>Just wrote casually before.

Fuck you for making me laugh at this.

Fuck it, I laughed, appropriate use of the image.
It never ends but then, would you ever want it to?
Well, stop sneaking around outside and come in, weirdo.

>3 new posts
but, I'm not a meatbro! I'm an ally!
hide yer dogs fellers
Nah.
LET THE /HEALING/ COMMENCE!
I find it amusing in a really sad way that a lot of you guys fantasize about an obsessive gf. Like you've never had any real love so you want to suffocate in it. Like how someone dying of thirst in the desert would want to drown in a pool.
I hope you guys are ready for more possessive Alita because that's up soon in the ideas bin.
Also who wins in a fight, Bucky or K? What about a fight over Alita's heart?
Much appreciated. It's certainly not always easy, but I'm so glad I've found something to rouse my creative spirit after years of neglect.
Alita didn't give Hugo explicit consent to kiss her
it's basically rape
Or we're just having fun. I'm sure you joke about fucking donkeys all the time.
No one laughs though, they're not sure you're joking.
I seem to have struck a nerve.
And how you, who have never had any friends, choose to seek attention via trolling!
As much as I like K I have to give it to Bucky. In terms of her heart, though? That's a tough one. Probably also Bucky.
POST THE DAMN STORY BEFORE I PISS MYSELF
Because then it'll take longer to shop everything
No, it was just a joke. Chill man. No one reeeeeaaaaally thinks you fuck donkeys.
We also don't judge too harshly.
this looks like a Borderlands introduction screen
>he truly thinks we would be delighted by an unhealthy relationship
clearly doesn't understand that it's just a joke, I'm sorry your autism is so blinding user.
#CyberMeToo
>I could crush him but we'd never fight, he's alright.
I think outside anons are jealous we keep things relatively clean and harmless compared to the rest of Yea Forums. Every once in a while I dip outside to see what the other threads are like, and holy fuck.
BRfag who went 8 times to the theater and was just handed the poster.
Happy to see that these threads are still going strong, they are extremely comfy.
Cripes guys, fucking relax. It was just an observation. I'm not trolling, I just dip into these threads now and then and a common theme of the role playing is that Alita is obsessed with you and is super clingy.
The other night someone literally said how they wrecked their last relationship by being too obsessed and clingy and how they wish that they had a gf who loved them in the same obsessive kind of way.
It's just kind of sad to see.
I post about obsessive Alita because of Rosa’s restraining order
WHERE IS IT?!
>Threads die for this general REEEEE
>Who do you want to see get blacked?
Yeah I think we're fine
>Bucky is just so dreamy, and that arm!
they react to us the only way they know how. They wish they had a group and its why they come back.
> and a common theme of the role playing is that Alita is obsessed with you and is super clingy.
1. She's like that in the movie, go see it
2. Rosa is like that in real life, her boyfiend tried to get a restraining order against her
>The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.
This here Some anons do take it a little far, but the majority are fucking around. It fits Alita's character in the film, because she is obsessive.
>"I'd do whatever I had to for you."
he cut a guy in half
Well, sometimes you have to separate the men and the boys.
>a new challenger has appeared
Tanji was a bro, he didn't deserve to die.
he was a dick but he didn't deserve death. Pourin one out for my boye
They really need to raise the image limit for us. If you're here jannies, consider it please!
Happened long ago, get over it
Guess he got half...
>dip
What an unfortunate coincidence.
I'm going to hell for laughing at this.
Kek underrated
Glad you're still here user. We have lots of OC's still planned.
>I’m now having flashbacks of that one chick that made a self oc to ship with this dude
What on earth? Link?
What has this movie done to me? Like, I'm obsessed with going to see it in the theater. Every time I've gone to see it, it's an event. I never want it to end, how did Cameron and Rodriguez finally make going to see a movie in the theater like a special thing? This is what going to the theater should be like for every movie.
You rediscovered the sense of magic which you had lost.
>last thread picture is a dude getting chopped in half
so much for healing
Say that to my faces and not online and see what Zapans.
This better?
Watched Alita to the last weekend, enjoyed to see everybody creeped out or intrigued by Nova's acts.
Cameron knows how to make details-focused immersive worlds for his movies
It's an honest movie. It's not there to take advantage of you.
>Say that to my faces
>faces
Kek, more like faesces, am I right?
Fuck me, posted at the exact same second and we broke the image limit.
>20:54:49
dat monomolecular precision
WHERE DID YOU FIND THIS??
>Magic?
This is the second time I've seen it happen.
>151 images
nani the fuck!?
I thought I posted this at 150?
what's going on
We're at 152 images right now, we broke it.
Isn’t it because ALITA is cute in both apparence and way of acting?
The image limit is healed by Arita
>not finding an excuse to listen to Simon & Garfunkel for any reason, meme or otherwise.
faggot
we did this last night, too I think.
>Out of my way, image limit fucking shits.
please add:
I'm doing this for us, remember? You can't miss it!
It's genuine, sincere. I don't even think it has any retarded quips to "lighten the tension" any time it gets too serious.
Alita's cuteness and Rosa's acting are part of the aforementioned details and immersiveness
she's, not a completely bad illustrator. Her Star Trek drawings look nice.
The closest I can even think of is McTeague coming in with his dogs and going "He wasn't a dog lover, I hate that," to ease up a little tension, but that's after the fight is over.
There isn't a single quip. There are, however, some badass one-liners.
>It's where I used to live.
>It's where you're going to die.
>That was intense, huh...
How did we do it?
Magic?
>ally
Fuck.
Organic.
People.
>tfw can't post "where you're going to die" webm
>screaminginternally.screampeg
No, something stronger.
Love.
never forget the day Alita broke the image limit
>Something stronger.
>/healposting/
>nearly written an entire book of fanfic
>cuts like a maniac
>chugs Red Bull as much as as a meth addict does meth
This is Philip K. Dick levels, my man.
It's happened before.
why incels are so obsessed with that movie
And I've done it both times, quite amazing must say.
also, it's goofy as shit but she seems happy and has a following of sorts. Let her do her thing, she's not hurting anybody.
It's in the art book
don't ever correct me again nigger
And I started all three because of Alita.
Don't forget I find time to post here, too.
This is what Star Wars was like during the OT, a way of filmmaking forgotten since the rise of capeshit.
that wasn't necessarily a witty remark or a joke that makes a mockery of the situation, but it was to ease tension.
hope you've screencapped them for proof when we scrapbook all of our silly achievements.
WHERE IS MY NEW BREAD
Cameron also put a lot of notes on how Alita should be
>be cute here and here, extremely cute here, even cuter there
Go back to The Mary Sue, Steiner.
Peaches are you a wizard?
Next achievement?
Getting a thread to 500 posts before it autosages.
Man, this meme's really starting to come around.
go see the movie user
many of us are volcel, thank you
He wouldn’t! There’s still good in him, I know it!
It was a pleasure to break the image limit with you.
>pressFtosalute.png
True, I could be in a relationship, I just don't want to right now. I don't have the money to support one.
Yeah, after the divorce I just don’t really feel inclined to date again. I have so much free time, it’s wild. I kinda love it.

What if your mother weren't a whore?
Christ, mine started out like crazy and melodramatic as fuck. She took off out of the blue and confessed an affair over the phone, and I had a couple nights of driving around late and thinking about crazy shit, but I didn’t do anything bad, I eventually got moved out, went back to my hometown, got a better job making more money that I like more, and now I see my family and my friends all the time instead of barely ever.
Sometimes you gotta give it up if it’s not good for you. Things can be rotten on the inside even if the outside looks okay.
We wouldn't be brothers.
