The funny thing is though is that Watanabe is the only character I can think of who has had anything close to a love life.

I hadn't even thought of that, but you're right--there's a sharp irony there. He did live with Miss Ayasugi for a while, enjoying everything but the actual secks (like a lot of manga relationships actually...)

sad indeed...
except misaki and iwata had a slight thing, but considering he's a robot now, misaki, i think, definantly won't have him now.

She did bribe Shiouji into erasing Iwata's memory of the snowed-in incident, but that, itself, was something else entirely.

The relationship dynamics in Excel Saga are just so damn complicated!

I love it!   :e_pleased:

i don't know whether he's just trying to be realistic when it comes to relationships. he's not going for a whole happy couples thing where EVERYONE has a girlfriend by the end of the show.

What about Nabeshin?

anime doesn't count i don't think.
besides, it wasn't a main plot, neither did we see anything really happen.

Life imitates art?

Boot-Thieving Pervert Arrested

A man arrested for stealing dozens of pairs of women’s boots has told investigators that he smelled them to imagine what the women who wore them looked like, police said.

Kazuhiro Watanabe, 33, from Okagaki, Fukuoka Prefecture, admitted to the allegations of theft during questioning. “I got excited when I smelled them and fantasized over what the women who wore them looked like,” Watanabe was quoted as telling investigators.
