Review by Kate O'Neil

Mania Grade: A

The enemy has been sighted! Now, is there anything that Excel can do about it? Where is the real Lord Il Palazzo? Excel Saga continues to be like nothing else on the U.S. manga market. Smart, witty and insane, it shows just what can and will go wrong when mad science and supervillainy collide with the real world. With the anime about to be rereleased to the masses again, now is a good time to welcome new and lapsed returning fans to the series. Perhaps Viz can make it available on their iPad app. A word of warning though, while Excel Saga is finally reaching it’s end in it’s homeland, it might be another agonizing year wait for the next volume to arrive on our shore.
