Excel Saga: Complete Series

Do you like comedy?
This series was a show that started out in 2002 I saw it with a few college friends back then and thought it was hilarious. I've finally found it and now watch it with new friends and my siblings. Though it is funny it is not recommended for children/teens under 15...simply because of most of the content.

GREAT ANIME BASSED ON A GREAT MANGA BY A GREAT MANGAKA
This review petrains to the anime as a whole. I cannot review this set as it has not been released at the time of this review.

This series bassed on the manga by Rikudou Koshi is in my opinion a classic that all manga/anime fans should own along with the originol manga (at the time of this review their are 22 volumes of the manga).

This series follow two teenage girls just out of high school, Excel Excel and Hyatt, who are members of a secreet organization ACROSS (named after a center in fukkuoka in Southern Japan) headed by Lord Ilpallazo (the Ilpalazo is a trendy hotel in Japan) intent on domination. They decide to foucuss their efforts on taking over a city, F-City (I assume refers to Fukuokka) as a step to world domination.

It is loaded with parodies of Japanese manga and anime as well as parodies of american movies and comics.

It is an extreamly hillarious comdey spanning 26 eppisodes.

In my opinion any one who is a fan of...

What the heck is going on with this anime? I guess we'll never know!
Excel a maniac. That works for the secret Across organization. Across wants to rule the world. There's no freakin' way that can happen with henchmen that are as insane and as dumb as Excel is. Her partner, Hyatt, is equally hopeless. She has a weak constitution, or anemia, or cancer, or something. She's always spitting up blood and passing out for no apparent reason. Despite these mental and physical handicaps they do do their best. Each episode has a different story going on inside the main plot, which doesn't unfold until the very end. I honestly didn't enjoy it until about half way through. If you watch Excel Saga try not to have any preconceptions or expectations before you start. Don't take it seriously. Enjoy it for what it is; if you can figure out what it is. It's actually not all that bad.
