Regarding the name and title
Before we get into the main content of the movie, I would like to know about the change in the name of the main character and the title of the movie.
The main character's name in `` Gunm '' is Gally, but in the virtual reality system that appears in the final chapter ``TUNED'', he is named ALITA. When the English version was published, the English spelling for Gully was changed to Alita because the pronunciation was similar to gully, which means ``a ravine, ditch, or sewage created by erosion,'' and it did not give a good impression to English-speaking readers. . In the Spanish-speaking world, Alita means "little wings" or "chosen one."

The title of the comic published in English-speaking countries is ``Battle Angel Alita.'' There's a reason why this was changed to "Alita: Battle Angel" when it was made into a movie. In fact, the English titles of director Cameron's films include "T and A rules", such The Abyss " The The Terminator", " Aliens ", " The Aliens ", and " Terminator 2: Judgment Day ". ( Terminator 2: Judgment Day), ``True LiesLies ,'' `` Titanic ,'' and `` Avatar , ' ' almost all of them begin with T or A (a few documentary films, etc.). (with exceptions). Although he had originally intended to direct this film himself, he changed the word order so that the title began with the letter A as a personal stamp.
