Didn't know there is a topic like that.

Well, it took several months for me to get throug the first two books of Robert Musil's Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften, "the man with no qualities". I thought I'm done with the difficult stuff and read Lovecraft's horror stories. Even if I don't like that kind of stuff, I admit he is good... but anyway, I realized that's not my kind of thing and here I am, reading Toistoi's War and Peace. Hate the frensh parts, but beside that it's going on pretty well.
Plus, I can brag about reading another piece of so called great literature 

I'm looking forward to this day with mixed feelings...

I read they have a locomotives factory there. I bet that would pay off quite good...
Anyway, with no income on a regular base they maybe won't let you sign the lease so easily. I'm not aware how they actually treat this in the UK, but I guess it's the same anywhere. They wont their rent. I needed a surety.
Well, I thought that's maybe good to know, if you didn't already.    I didn't...

Ah man, look at it like it's a detective-story. To guess whodunit is half the fun. Rikdo-san gives us clues for that reason...

Well. About Hyatt and Elgala having a Solarian-connection... I prefer to think they are just the kind of person Il Palazzo seems to attract: young, twisted women. Maybe or maybe not...

For Excel... that's a whole different story. To imagine she's just someone he picked up at the street is rather strange. Could it be that Excel is related to the royal family? In that case, mustache-man would have recognized her... on the other hand, he's kinda senile and crazy... Anyway, she maybe hasn't those cat-like eyes, But she's the first candidate for a solarian-connection, don't you think?

Well, however. Way back in Vol 13, chapter “A few words I'd like to convoy to you” a certain pedophile scientist discovers – besides lots of other mysterious stuff – this line: Recovery of Frozen Organism. Who or what would that be than, I wonder.
Mince perhaps? 

Another thing. What - if anything at all - has Il Palazzo to do with the Shiouji-clan, or more specific: Tenmangu.  I think a connection is implied at some points.

Well yeah, however it may be... or not...

Hi everyone.
My name is Martin. I am 21 years old and live in Upper Austria.

No doubt, Excel Saga is my favorite Manga. I just started reading it last year. I guess I fell in love with it at the first panel. I couldn't find vol. 7 and 8, what makes me kind of  … but maybe someday...
My opinion on the Anime is somewhat-lesser, but hey, it's still fun to watch. Beside that I like Black Lagoon, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo and Full Metal Panic Fumoffu.
As a matter of fact, I don't listen to music very much.
Well, yeah... basically that's it.

In the last Oubliette was something like “what kind of self-respecting fanatic would miss that”, so I registered here. 
At the moment I'm in the middle of re-reading all volumes to get some clues for solid theories. The Saga is so full of mysteries to speculate about...
