Mitsuishi Kotono (EVANGELION\'s Misato and SAILOR MOON\'s Tsukino Usagi) has expressed enjoyment in playing silly roles, and the lead role of Excel has got to be the silliest one so far. Excel is the indestructible agent of the mysterious ACROSS organization. Her job is to do the bidding of her leader, the handsome Ilbarazzo. Until the arrival of Hyatt, the dark-haired Ifurita look-alike, Excel was the only minion of ACROSS...and Ilbarazzo has no qualms about shooting her whenever she pisses him off....and then just has \'The Universe\' (a starfield with arms) bring her back to life. And then shoots her again. Then there\'s Menchi, Excel\'s poor dog, who sings the ending song for the show about how her owner\'s always abusing her and threatening to eat her (with the aid of subtitles and a Japanese interpreter). Even the creator of the EXCEL SAGA manga, Rokudou Hoshi, gets a part on the show as a lanky dude with glasses; Excel\'s first assignment is to assassinate Rokudou because, as Ilbarazzo says, his manga are crap.
