Oh no...

you can coach people in football while being an obese old fuck, you don't have to be able to play the game to teach it

also some adjustments to the story would be needed because it's a movie format, not a comic format, the first two arcs are too short to be adapted into one movie and too episodic to be fused into one, so they have to make some shit up to bridge it

Bad analogy. He's only a teenager and has never played the sport. He doesn't have any idea what it's like to be a superhuman killing machine hopped up on mind-altering drugs kung fu fighting at 200mph.

>the first two arcs are too short to be adapted into one movie
They most certainly are not. Motorball shouldn't be in the first movie. The first few books had the "normal" cyborg gladiator stuff.

We don't know how much he teaches her, maybe he's a big enough fan to know enough to make for a decent teacher

>They most certainly are not.
They are, by themselves, and they're too episodic to both take place in the same movie. And the motorball arc is both cooler and better than the first two, so you'd want to adapt as soon as possible. And the normal cyborg gladiator stuff was just a throwaway plot device to give makaku a powerful body.

Rushing into the motorball arc is a bad idea. There's Plenty of pre-motorball material for one movie.

The animes ran for one hour without touching motorball and they skipped over most of the stuff from the manga.

I just want the mad max stuff but if this flops we will never get it.
And Keean Johnsonis probably gone be more of a life coach then a sports coach.

They really are adapting the second chapter of Battle Angel Alita. That's the most important part of the story?

But then again, Elysium already did Gunnm's plot.

elysium had nothing to do with alita aside from "privileged city in the sky"

I hope Cameron has a tight leash on Robert - Machete was fucking awful

Me too

I don't know why they'd go for motorball so soon. Nobody wants to watch alita wearing a crash helmet and an ugly motorball combat body. The skin-tight leather and trenchcoat is where it's at.
