I might be mixing it up, but I think that's Watanabe's sister.

Uh?

If you look at the lower left corner of that picture, it says "??," which is the kanji for "Watanabe," and right after that is "?," younger sister.

Fascinating. This is the first time I've heard anything of this. O.o
She kinda has the same hair type as him too. Makes sense.

Hopefully this character hasn't been shelved. I could see possibilities.

It's from a scrapped chapter in Fourth.

Maybe I'm a bad person, but I'm glad the character has been shelved. She didn't seem that interesting and there are too many female characters in Excel Saga as it is.  :e_confused:

Hmm... well there goes a possibility of regaining Watanabe's honor *sigh*

Actually you are right about that. Looking at the characters as whole in the world of Excel Saga, female characters do bombard the story...

The ratio of women to men can't be THAT extreme in Fukuoka. O_O

Or perhaps it is just Rikdo's preference :P

Reminds me of Ken Akamatsu actually.

I think you've hit the nail on the head.

I would only hope that Excel Saga is never labeled as a bishojo manga. Or ever gets a reason to be labeled as. >_<


Still, it'd be fun to see Watanabe with a younger sister. I'd have to wonder how much she'd be like him, or would she be an exact opposite.

excel-kleinwald

She'd probably be constantly making fun of him, belittling him... but deep inside she has a miniscule soft spot for her big brother.  Or something that isn't so cliched that I would be able to guess.

Thankfully, he's not nearly that bad.

Actually...

Well, it's more effort than it's worth to try to read it, but she's definitely teasing him a lot.

Really??
hmm.. I'll have to check those referances out later. It's been such a long time since looking through those older volumes. ^^;;

So at least two volumes give mention of Watanabe's sister. Gotta wonder if Rikdou could follow through by introducing her at some point. Not that she's necessarily needed.

Oi! Why, yes I am. Thank you for asking.  ;D

Maybe a character that will plop up in one of the future volumes, who knows

You can never defeat the master, MWhahahahaha
