Got caught up on Battle Angel Alita: Last Order...though I'm uncertain if that's the finale, since it effectively wraps up the entire Earth storyline and seems to quiet things down around Earth, what with the aftermath of the 10th ZOTT.
However, there's still SuperNova(any white guy dressed like a pimp with an afro that big HAS to be uber-evil) on his way to Mars, and there's Frau X, super-nasty Panzer-Kunzt artist and terrorist who seems to have a link with Alita's(when she was known as Yoko) distant past as a Martian terrorist. And I believe that there's still a brain-chip of Lou's somewhere(I'm not certain it was destroyed).

The irony is, the Last Order arc actually went longer than the original arc(which had been cut short, as you may know, when the artist had health problems, and feared he wouldn't be able to finish up, so he rushed in an ending. then when he got better, returned to the story and spun off Last Order from the point Nova blows up Alita after the showdown at his lab at the Granite Inn).

Well, I didn't know that. But that's ok. Still will watch it. So much anime, so little time. :D And you would consider her a full body cyborg, right?

Actually, I'm referring to the MANGA...the ANIME doesn't even cover a tenth of the overall story.

Gally/Alita is most definitely a full-body cyborg(this gets even more complete later on in the manga series), although bionics in the Gunn universe become so absurdly advanced as to become pseudo-living or even supernatural systems(the Fizziroy and Imaginos bodies for example, and later on we see cyborgs powered by wormholes, regenerated by nanotech, and even possessing zero-point taps).
And the later stages of the original manga series and Last Order entirely deal with the reverse situation, with many of the characters arguably being full-flesh conversion ROBOTS or nanotech-generated clones.

Wow, that's really advance. So I'm guessing there aren't a lot of flesh and blood humans left, right? And guess I'll have to add another manga to the reading list.

The Battle Angel Universe can, in official Tropes terms, be termed a 'crapsack world'...There's plenty of flesh and bloods on Earth, and many more in space, but it's so easy to get maimed that it's easy to get a replacement cyberlimb, and an easy choice for some people to pre-emptively lose limbs and most of their bodies to become cyborgs. Problem is, in the Scrapyard, metalling up just makes your spare parts that much more attractive to being' jacked by the cyberchoppers.
In space, full cyborgs are a bit rarer, but that's because there's better medical care and alternatives to cybernetics. But that's relative, because the environment is just as hostile.
Then there's the transhunans like the Jovians and the Venusians....


Getting back on point, you wouldn't want Zekka as a high school faculty member because he's just plain bugass badass nuts, and his being forced to deal with mewling snot-nosed juvenile delinquents would quickly result in him destroying a good part of the continent....

At least with My mega character Alecia she has at least a small sense of "proportion" IE she CAN go base zero or whatever its called in star wars where you bombard a planet until the crust is molten. However it takes some time and effort for her to do so. IE first she has to go into her "lab/factory/depot" (in a pocket dimension) and pull her "modified" Star Destroyer out of its shipyard slip (which takes at least a few minutes) then plot out and begin the bombardment process.

If she looses it on a person, unless they are an "uber being" themselves she usually starts with things like:
pull out a phaser (she keeps a 26th+ century concealable phaser on her person) and either stun, or attempt to "kill/ disrupt" (aka poof soot) them.
or pull out one of her various handguns: NE-4? plasma cartridge pistol, shemarian railgun, or various "other" weapons such as her rune Katana, or a lightsaber.

if that fails and she is still ticked THEN it starts escalating, to things like "power armor, walkers (battlemechs), mecha or similar.

Zekka basically perfected a martial arts move that produces a point of antimatter that he uses his fist to then push INTO the target.
He developed this move because his martial arts teacher told him to perfect his martial arts 'beyond utility'.
On the way, one of his developmental moves proved so freakin' powerful when used against his fellow student/rival's own 'beyond utility move' that the side effects OBLITERATED a space station and got him effectively banned from future competition without special permission(and a specially reinforced tournament facility).

Actually, having student-taught for two weeks(and then deciding that 'high school teacher' was not a title I aspired to), I can safely proclaim that I'd wished at the time that the teacher-preparation school has sent us on a month-long stint with UN peacekeeping forces in some godforsaken corner of the globe to better prepare us.

Hard-won Lesson 1: LEARN all the kids' names(don't rely on the seating chart). If nothing else, you have a name to go with a face at the police lineup....

Hard-won Lesson 2: Have all your lesson plans in triplicate, and prepare to abandon them on a moment's notice("No Plan Survives Contact With the Enemy")

Hard-won Lesson 3: Eye contact. Let them know you're paying attention.

There are a few more, but they're really relevant only to teaching specific classes.

Bear in mind I entered the teacher-preparation program back in the late 80s. Nowadays I imagine the distraction factor is even greater with cellphones. In my current career as a librarian I'm already seeing kids struggle with their prosthetic memories....this is really sad if we have to go the Moon using sliderules....

reminds me of Alecia's experience on DS 9
this was before she learned to "stick weapons in mini "bent space pockets" prior to that point in the campaign, Megarea had the portable dimensional space storage, except that Alecia already had her "lab door" access (of course her lab door access has restrictions for use: (like it has to be on a flat surface "big enough for the door to be placed" and some others)
so Alecia walks up to the checkpoint, and being as it was her first visit to DS 9... the weapons detector kind of went nuts, because Alecia started out as "special forces" she routinely packed weapons for "every occasion". I want to say at that time she had something like: 4 grenades, MP-23A caseless smg, 3 knives, a rune Katana, a lightsabre, neroni plasma cartridge pistol, Shemarian rail gun (slung over her shoulder) a forearm laser, a phaser (the old kirk remote control pistol core) she might have had a star wars blaster or 2, etc. basically every part of her body had weapons attached, to the point that if she wasn't careful she .... Rattled. After that experience she toned it down a bit... but she also had been random rifted often enough that she was kind of paranoid about letting weapons get "away from her"

so her version of going through the weapons/ metal detector would be kind of crazy, and worse if it can detect stuff in "hammerspace" aka portable holes, or bent space pockets, then it would be "worse"

first you have to realize I played Alecia for a long time ~5 years of 3-5 sessions a week

places I KNOW she has been to: rifts (she started there) she ran into Archie 3oz early enough that it was part of her back story. she had a few adventures there, then she got "rifted to Star Wars galaxy where she was determined to be force sensitive, and picked up some Jedi training.
Another early "rifting" took her to battletech in ~3025 ish
Battlestar Galactica (classic aka the 70's version) at least a couple times, her reflexes were so impressive they ran her through viper training
Neo Tokyo aka bubblegum crisis/crash
several alternate variant versions of that kind of stuff.
she repeatedly ended up on "tulip world" a very strange place the GM came up with and Alecia found out the hard way (along with several other peoples chars) why you don't want to mess with the tulips basically their pollen is highly charged and has mutational effects, just walking down the roads (and being there too long) and you start having to make saves vs magic (at high difficulties) and then make percentile rolls for the transformation effects:
known effects that have happened to people: gender changes, body/limb replacement IE one moment you are human, an effect happens and you wake up furry (mutated into a dog boy) or you suddenly have tentacles, and /or bat wings, super powers or just about anything else,
there are dozens of tables, sub tables etc.
(the gm also used it to get the players into a game, and give them special abilities. like this example: you are going to meet (group) at the movie theater to watch (insert movie) when suddenly there was a blue flash and you are driving through a field of 10ft tall tulips, make a driving/piloting check.... ok after you ran into 5 tulips the rest of them within ~100 yards orient on you and blow pollen at you... make 30 saves vs number your relevant stats were ....

ok alecia was in star trek several times, star wars several more times, went through the macross part of robotech at least 5x the entire series at least 2 or 3 times.
ran into the mechanoids s few times.

about the only major verse I don't think she was ever in was Dr. Who or avatar.
she did run into transformers, a few times etc.

along the way she has picked up various ranks: she worked up to an E10 Master Gunnery Sargent. She has been an Lieutenant, a Captain, a "wing commander", she may have even gotten up to being a commodore in a fleet or 2.

Here are some of the possibilities of what happened to that vending machine:

-It is currently in pieces no bigger than a dime.
-It is an aerosol vapor
-It is in orbit of Pluto
-It is on its metaphoric knees, in a puddle of its own lubricant, begging and pleading for its existence.
-It is now a mechanical death machine, rampaging down the halls, intent on destroying all in its path.
-It is retroactively and preemptively empty of all contents(that is to say, nobody remembers when it was full, and it cannot be refilled)

no not really on an image of Alecia
but right now my mental image is a lot like the Selene char in underworld, but as a Blond, or Strawberry blond.

the "scary thing" is take that image and put Shemarian armor on it as "power armor" and riding a monst-rex sized Wolf/husky or Tiger oh and she wouldn't have the "vampire" complexion

I do remember one "experiment" Alecia did to some people she really didn't like. that was kind of a test of her strength and speed in the sense of strikes. She decided to see if she could hit them "flat palm strikes on the sternum" and see if she could grab their heart before the body got displaced out of arms reach. The results were "Messy"

I do remember one "experiment" Alecia did to some people she really didn't like. that was kind of a test of her strength and speed in the sense of strikes. She decided to see if she could hit them "flat palm strikes on the sternum" and see if she could grab their heart before the body got displaced out of arms reach. The results were "Messy"

They tried manning with the door entrances with GMP robots....
"Have. A. Nice. Day." (*robot waves as student walks by with the better portion of a Garfish cruiser's arsenal in her knapsack.)


It should, however, be noted, in all fairness, that in its entirety of operation, MCG#69 NEVER actually had any shooting incidents on campus. The staff and students may have been insane, crazy, demented, but they NEVER were criminally deranged. Any hint of staff or students planning on doing actual bodily harm to others was taken MOST seriously and treated accordingly.

Edwards: "Checking my office for booby-traps, etc., etc..."

Edwards: "REALLY?! Haven't you been paying attention?! The ice bucket challenge, the M.A.C. II dropped on my car, the weapons detector incident..."

"Ahem. Welcome to HyperDimensional Calculus. First lesson, those advanced calculators you all brought with you? Turn them off, throw them out. HyperDimensional Calculus has just about NOTHING to do with advanced mathematics. HyperDimensional Calculus has more in common with philosophy than any 'hard' science you are familiar with. HyperDimensional Calculus is more the upfront pondering and virtual experiencing of realms of probability and possibility that beggar human and computative linear thought, and move beyond even the ability of quantum computers to fully embrace. FEELING and EMOTION have as much to do with HyperDimensional Calculus as equations. When dealing with the substance of HyperDimensional Calculus, one must be acutely aware of the Observer Effect, in that the mere act of OBSERVING the subject, changes it. This is the equivalent, in the simplest possible example, of your math homework worksheets changing as you are reading them. That's an ever-simplification of the realm of HyperDimensional Calculus, where even contemplating possible solutions to a problem, changes the problem and its possible solutions. Under ideal circumstances, then, it is possible to guide the ultimate solution to a problem by mere thought.
The problem is, it's not that simple. The universe has a way of responding to attempts to change it in such manner by its sheer infinity. The universe has a nasty habit of stating I'M BIGGER THAN YOU. -YOU- CHANGE. "
