Twentieth Century Fox 's Alita: Battle Angel is coming to Anime Expo next week and Anime News Network has all the details of where to find the heroine of Iron City.

The excitement will kick off on July 4 when Alita takes over the Manga Lounge. Visitors can sit down and peruse the original manga series or browse original props from the film on display. Outside the convention center, artist Cloe Hakakian will paint a manga-inspired mural of Alita. The mural is interactive thanks to AR technology and an array of costumes ready to wear to capture that perfect cyberpunk selfie.

A cosplay meet-up centered on the world of Alita will take place at Anime Expo on Saturday, July 6 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the LACC north entrance near Chick Hearn Court. The cosplay celebration will continue with a scheduled meet-and-greet with three popular cosplayers . Twentieth Century Fox is still working out the details and plan to announce the participating cosplayers soon.
