English Excel Saga Vol. 25

The speedup is go!  Who says only Jump manga can do it?!

http://books.simonandschuster.com/Excel-Saga-Vol-25/Rikdo-Koshi/Excel-Saga/9781421549392

April 9, 2013.

At this rate, the series will likely be finished in early 2014, a full 3 years earlier than I had expected!

And then I'm sure Viz will license Holy Brownie.  Right?  ANY DAY NOW.  ^_-

Yes, any day now. I was sure I saw a flying pig today, too. But that could've been the result of the fumes off the bathroom cleaner I used previously! :e_tongue:


Very good news, though!

Not much posting going on lately, but needless to say even though I'm busy with things in life, I'm still looking forward to Excel Saga 25 coming out : p

I read it tonight..!

Gotta say, happy something actually happens now..! Spoiler below, so please be careful to read on if you want to read it yourself:

Anyway, overall, I think the last half of this volume makes up for the kind of dull happenings that occurred in volume 24, which just felt like it was dragging on and on, which I wouldn't have minded if it was split up with some stuff going on at least, or done in an earlier volume, and not so close to the conclusion of the series..!

So that was, uh... Well, I liked the last two chapters (and to a lesser extent the third one)!

It got pretty hilarious near the end, and the final reveal was great, but this one was actually - dare I say - boring at times. Haven't felt that way about Excel Saga since volume 13. The pacing has really gotten slow, even more so than usual; I honestly have no idea how Rikdo can wrap this up in just two more volumes.

I've got my volume 25 but haven't read it yet.

Will get around to it sooner or later though!

3am tonight and I've got work in a few hours so probably not tonight =_=
