Excel Saga

Apr 21, 2011

Plot: Excel Saga is a show built on near-episodic parody of a specific anime genre or trope, with crazy offbeat side continuous side stories (like the plight of Pedro or ACROSS's plan to conquer the city), loosely tying them together. While the formula sounds hit or miss, vast majority of Excel's episode are diversified in its insanity to kept you entertained throughout. Oh and I hope you don't like 4th walls, they don't exist. No literally it doesn't exist. Nabeshin is literally the director of the show (Shinichi Watanabe) and the characters often refer to past events by first stating what episode it was...
