The Manga / Re: Excel Saga Vol. 1... digitally!
August 19, 2013, 08:50:40 PM
This is actually a good idea. Reading manga online seems popular these days with sites like batoto, mangafox, etc., so hopefully Excel Saga got at least a few new readers thanks to this.

(also, it looks like the books are on sale at this moment, and are only $3.99 per volume)

The Manga / Re: The End of Excel Saga (in Japan)

Yeah, I can't believe I've been keeping up with Excel Saga for 10 years now (and I've been lurking these forums for about 8 years?). I was just a 14 year old kid when I first started reading it, and after all this time it's still my favorite manga. All this waiting and anticipation makes the plot twists so much more special.

It's sad that there is only one volume left to wait for, but at the same time I'm also excited to finally see how this story is going to end, and I'm glad this forum exists for me to share my excitement.

I can't believe I got 4 Excel Saga figures for just $5 on eBay. I thought they'd be bootlegs or something, but they seem fine to me. Though on some official photos they seem to have black stands? Well, whatever I still love them. Here is my collection now.

The Manga / Re: English Excel Saga Volume 23
May 26, 2012, 07:36:37 PM
Finally got volumes 21, 22, and 23 a few days ago. It was great. Gosh, I got so emotionally attached to all of the characters over the years, I love them all so much.

And I laughed at my fanart being submitted under the name Fluttershy, how embarrassing. I need to stop changing my name.



[spoiler]It was nice to see so many new character interactions. Excel and Misaki surprisingly can get along quite well.

Now I'm wondering again, just how artificial is Excel's body? Since her mind can transfer to Isshiki, I'm guessing she is probably in the same situation as Iwata. It's depressing to think about Excel dying and being revived in the past.

I'm still confused about Hyatt. I used to be a little suspicious of her being a robot especially after that dream Excel had (with dozens of robotic Hyatts). But in the first volume she was a new recruit, so I'm guessing she was still a normal girl at that time. A very very sick girl, but yeah. And Il Palazzo didn't know about her medical condition at first. I wonder if he altered her body somehow not long after her first introduction. I'm sure she still has a human mind though, at least. It's adorable when she actually shows some signs of emotions.

Elgala is probably the only normal person of the trio.


I'm glad Watanabe is finally back. It's hilarious how he still occasionally goes back to his creepy self.

I found it cute how upset Sumiyoshi got when he thought that Shiouji was doing lewd things with Nisshiki. I guess they had some nerdy conversations in the past about "sticking to 2D".

And wow, Miwa is turning out to be really fucking scary. I wonder what she did to Il Palazzo.

I've actually never seen the 1997 Titanic movie.

It's weird, James Cameron created Terminator 2 which is like one of my favorite movies ever, but he also made Avatar and that was probably one of the most boring things I've seen. The 3D backgrounds were pretty and all, but I just couldn't get into the story and none of the characters appealed to me.

Also, hello, I just remembered about you guys and decided to visit. I promise I won't change my profile name anymore.

I moved from Russia to the US earlier this year, so hopefully soon I can start catching up with the Excel Saga manga (I'm still on volume 20  :e_crying:).

Why does the purple one in the center remind me of Stocking? :il_hahaha:

It is a mystery.

I kind of love My Little Pony Friendship is Magic now. It's a moe moe slice-of-life cartoon about uh, ponies.

Now that the manga is almost over, maybe we can finally get a proper Excel Saga anime adaptation.

Ugh, my monitor broke, so I thought it was a good chance to finally do some other things, but I could only last for 2 weeks before a bought a new one. Can't live without a computer.  :e_pleased:

Anime / Berserk

Are you guys excited about the upcoming Berserk anime?

In one of the trailers you can even see Skull Knight, which means that this new anime will probably be closer to the manga than the first anime.
