I am only worried that we'll never get a proper explanation of...

[spoiler]What the fuck was Tenmangu's evil plot?[/spoiler]

Other than that, yeah... it's kinda sad it ends. But I prefer for it to end, rather than it becoming something like Naruto. : /

Since it is a spoiler, let me not read it first... I am currently at volume 23 only.

Even if Excel Saga never ends, it will never be Naruto-like. It will still be a masterpiece. :ehail:

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome!  :elhail: The difference between the anime and the manga is not my concern lol. Both are great. It is the end of the manga that bugs me. No more Excel action! That is very bad! :lordil:

Thank you Lord Il, this is a great forum! May I ask what was the mail to Nabeshin about? Is it also about the end of the manga?

Nabeshin is a very talented director but I think he has nothing to do with the manga, if we want to ask about the manga... I sometimes even suspect if Rikudo is really in good terms with Nabeshin. The anime emphasize on comedy but the manga has more depth. In the manga, the jokes and satires are hidden behind the surface of the plot and the readers often need to think about what message Rikudo is trying to deliver. Nabeshin kinda made a slapstick comedy show out of Excel Saga, in other words, Nabeshin changed Rikudo's work entirely (I am not saying the anime is not good though, it is brilliant, but in a way different from what the author intended Excel Saga to be).

Hi everyone I am new here... To be frank the news of the end of the manga is the reason I am here. I have been reading this manga for years, watched the anime over and over for many times, Excel Saga has accompanied me through out many bitter and sweet times. Now with the new of the manga is about to end, I am really sad.

There are many reasons for mangas to end...One is because the story ends naturally, another is because of unpopularity or other complexities so the author just wraps up the story quickly. Mangas ending due to the second reason can be easily identified from the plot. I really hope the author is not ending excel saga because he is starting to draw the new manga. And I really hope there can be an Excel Saga 2.

I even have the urge to write to Rikido to show my support for Excel Saga...but I can't write Japanese. What do you think?
