ThisMangaShowIsVeryGood!
By Samuel Tyler from Reading, England , 08 Dec 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
Excel Saga continues to be a superior slice of Japanese Animation spoofing a different genre every episode. This DVD includes episodes spoofing horror films, survival films and girly Manga (or perverted old man Manga!).
The show is very surreal and some moments are just too odd but overall it has many laugh out loud moments and the sheer energy of the show is so compelling.
One for every Manga fan

By a customer from England , 12 Nov 2005Delightfully madcap. As usual this series is better appreciated by fans of the anime genre, as it parodies other animations and Japanese culture at large mercilessly. Very enjoyable!- Was this review helpful to you?

I, Koshi Rikdo (the creator) say farewell to boredom
By Paul Baker from Bishops Stortford - England , 27 Oct 2004Excel Saga - Vol. 2
Where to begin?
Well, first up, it's bloody funny.
Hyatt and her senior Excel continue to subvert F city to the ideals and values of Across.
Every episode is so chock fall of puns and Japanese animated in-jokes that I would defy even the most ardent fan to spot them all.
The DVD does give you the oportunity to have Menchi (Excel's dog & also her backup food supply) explain via word bubbles what all the many gags mean.
Excel saga is never dull, the action rips along and if your like me you'll never tire of watching Hyatt die and the evil space puchu's (like picachu) from being horribly killed.
As for poor Pedro, his sexy wife and the all powerfull will of the macrocosm, well you'll just have to see it yourself.
And I haven't even mentioned Kabapu, who creates an F city defense force from beaurocrats and the fact every episode is themed.
This disc has a 'cute girls only' ep. and a 'Sports manga' and also a 'wilderness survival' and a battle against aliens in the city's sewers.
Try it, you might just love it, I certainly do.- Was this review helpful to you?
