I’m with the guy who wants more derpy octopus-face Alita.

It’s getting the fishing game isn’t it? With motion controls?

I am open to watching anything Studio Mir produces because anything that reminds me of Avatar: The Last Airbender makes me happy.

Hah, you totally explained my unease with GKids. I forgot about 4Kids.
