Alita, or Gally (Japanese: ガリィ, Hepburn: Garii) in the original Japanese version, is the title character and the main protagonist of Yukito Kishiro's cyberpunk manga series Gunnm (known as Battle Angel Alita in the English translation) and its sequels Last Order, Mars Chronicle and Panzer Kunst Chronicle.
