Guest Hikaru Ichijyo Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 :therock: Well Projekt[Navi] it all depends on people's taste and exposure not many people are able to get their hands on some of the anime you listed. Personally the ones you listed are funny but Excel saga for some reason has a much more slap stick approach that appeals to american fans much more then that hyper active humor stuff and also somewhat south Park ish humor. :) It basically depends on the person, and so far it seems like Excel Saga appeals to more then I even anticpated.

DuoMax Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 all ican say is that i love it. It is the most incredibly funny anime i've seen, though the first couple episode of Trigun are pretty funny in their own right.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkey Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 I finally got Volume 1, and I gotta say this: Unless you watch plenty non-mainstream animé, you won't get half of the jokes. Kinda like Scary Movie. I have even noticed that sometimes the backgrounds feature a joke all by itself, and the horrible dubbed voices add a lot to the game. You haven't seen Pedro until you hear him in English! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaiyanPrincessX Posted December 22, 2002 Share Posted December 22, 2002 I've heard of it, have yet to see it though. Once I have money I'll be up at SunCoast!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Asuka Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 [color=orangered][size=1]GAH! I feel so left out! I am dying to see this series but I don't have any money! I have watched the little advertisment for it on my other DVDs and I have watched it OVER AND OVER AND OVER! It's the funniest thing I've ever seen! I like the little shoulder angel and devil who are fighting with each other. But yes, me and my sisters are definately pooling for this series.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Apex Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 [font=trebuchet ms][color=darkblue]I do believe that [i]Excel Saga[/i] is one of the funniest anime out there. Well, it should be, since it's its only focus. However, I jut found a few episodes funny, and others I just forced a laugh. [i]Golden Boy[/i]... now THAT is comedy.[/color][/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Watinabe Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 This anime known as the Excel Saga is the funniest thing to hit the face of the anime world (Roughly in competition with the american animated comedy Venture Brothers which is also a riot) But as I was saying I have seen the first four dvd's and was wondering what you think of the series your self?:therock: mmmmmmmm? [color=hotpink][size=1]I'm sorry I edited your post, but I just get very offended at the use of "GD." *QA*[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tursi Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 i've only seen the first volume and love it to death. hail lord empalazo! (i hope i didn't spell it wrong.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Asuka Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 [color=hotpink][size=1]I haven't seen this series, but I've really been wanting to. I saw the previews for it on one of my DVDs and I watched it over and over again because it was so funny. I've heard alot of good things about it, so I figure I'll see it as soon as I get some money and I see Chobits and Love Hina. ^_^[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Apex Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 [font=trebuchet ms][color=darkblue]I have the 5 released DVDs, and I'm in the 3rd episode of the 4th DVD. [I]Excel Saga[/I] has some VERY funny episodes (the baseball one made me cry in laughter all night ? my favorite), some decent ones, and then some downright boring ones. So, it's an overall funny anime, but [I]Golden Boy[/I] takes the cake as the true funniest anime around, with the [I]Ping Pong Club[/I] not too far behind.[/color][/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Watinabe Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 My personal favorite (episodes) are the ones with the child loving Scientist and the Robomotsues I just couldn't stop laughing (and I'll never be bothered by your kind editing;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkey Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 I've only seen volumes 1 & 2, butthat's enough for me to be impressed. Somehow, with all the madness going on, it still manages to keep multiple storylines (that often cross) going. Also, the amount of jokes packed in every episode is amazing, even those that are put accidentally. Pedro, for example, is my favorite character in the show. His tragic story is funny in a cruel way. And those who've seen shows like Cliffhanger and Cowboy Bebop will absolutely love Nabeshin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiachi Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 My favorite episode would have to be either the Sacrificial Lamb of the Venomous Escape from Hell(where do they get these names?) or the Bowling episode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Watinabe Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 I dont know where they come up with the titles but it's funny to here them when Excel tells all about the next episode in incredibly fast diolog. My favorite character is the child loving scientist he really likes those cute little girls but hey he's a super genius and the girls make him pretty outragous.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O_O Well, if that's the case, the DVDs are already rated +17, so maybe it was rated that way in the first place because of said episode. Plus, it's on DVD, not TV. Hopefully ADV won't take anything out.[/color][/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabmow Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 I saw the first excel saga dvd. I didn't like it that much, but the songs were very enjoyable. so I might give it a try again. When I first saw nadesico i hated it but liked the songs I now own the entire VHS Series and the dvds, plus a lot of nadesico toys, comics , etc...

Guest Watinabe Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 The songs are very enjoyable but I heard from someone that there last dvd or episode is a hentei comedy* and the U*S* editing worried me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Super Ryaman Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 (hehehehe)..... The hentai wont be relesed. Think about it, There holding back steel angel kurumi zero. That has some sex, talk about suicide, and some depressing stuff. Excel-saga's last episode (26) is all about sex. ADV wont release it unless more americans start watching this anime. So i think you should all go out and tell your friends about this anime, I did. *looks at Watinabe*.......(hehehehe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Watinabe Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I can only hope that it comes through but if it doesn't hey their's always the other 4 dvd's LOL they'll do just fine^_^...looks at Ryaman err... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
