Description: Excel Saga
Excel Saga would be freaking impossible to explain, because it just wouldn't do this anime justice. The general concept of the show revolves around Illpalazo and his organization of ACROSS, who wants nothing but to take over the world... starting with the city of J.
ACROSS' forces are strong... okay, they're just composed of him, the dangerously hyperactive girl Excel, the kind (but sickly) Princess Hyatt (who dies countless times), and the hapless dog Menchi. Menchi serves as an unwilling emergency source of food for Excel.
While ACROSS may be understaffed, they still forge on with their mission to take over J... in the most insane and chaotic way possible. During their quest for conquest, they encounter dangerously cute aliens, freeloading roommates, space butlers, dating simulations, guerilla forces, and even the creator himself, Koshi Rikdo! Will ACROSS complete their mission? And will Menchi avoid being "minced meat?" Watch Excel Saga at your own risk. You'll be the same... probably.
Description: Excel Saga
Crazy, Crazy. This anime is totally off the kilter!
The story revolves around Excel and Hyatt, members of the organization ACROSS, who are trying to conquer the city of F. The story gets strange since the director appears in almost every episode and characters get killed off routinely. Plus, the plot of the episodes changes every episode.
Oh yeah, and did I mention that the main character acts so crazy that half-way through the series they had to replace her voice actor because she lost her voice from all the screaming?
