Excel Saga 18 - 20 Geez, this show doesn't just break the so called fourth wall... it breaks the first, second, and third, and then for the heck of it builds a fifth one just so it can go and break that one, too. I think that's the only way I can think of describing it.

Living maybe, but only till it gets like that and you're squeezed to death by them.

The kisses are just to get you high so you don't notice when their big sharp, shiny teeth start making a meal outta you.

You're right, I do. It was always my worst subject in school. Just wish I could speak another language. I'm probably too old/lazy to learn one now. I'm gonna give learning Japanese a try eventually, but I kind of doubt I'll get very far. Although, now that I think of it. Both acai and museli are words that were borrowed from other languages, so can't really blame the English language for those two.

You're not. This is all just a dream. See those rainbow colored unicorns behind you that are nibbling on your brains?

Acai and Muesli I can never pronounce them correctly. I hate words whose pronounciation don't at all match the way they're spelled.

Awwww. I hope he doesn't do what his job title implies. 😟

What are you gonna do with him?

Yeah, I laughed at that. Anyway, Lil' Slugger gets the last laugh. Score one for the home team.

Heh, creepy otaku guy calling the old lady disgusting.

510? I thought the answer to life the universe and everything was 42.

It's about time. Get ready to play ball!

Excel Saga 13 - 17 Hm, Excel's new English VA is actually a bit easier to follow. She seems to speak a little slower than Jessica Calvello, and isn't anywhere near as screechy, though that could just be because where I'm at she had just taken over and had yet to have her vocal cords thorougly decimated from playing the part all that much thus far. Her seiyuu seems to talk even faster though amazingly. I can only surmise she managed to make it through the role intact due to her greater vocal fortitude and experience. As the "Japanimation" episode made clear, she played Sailor Moon, so she'd obviously been in the business for quite a while already.

Who needs major league baseball when Toonami has its very own Lil' Slugger on deck?

Excel Saga 9 - 12 Wow, gotta give this show some credit. It did what I thought was truly impossible; it somehow made bowling fun to watch. Trying to follow all of the dialogue though is a real pain. I swear Excel talks faster than the Micro Machine guy. I'm not even halfway through and I'm already wearing out my thumb from hitting rewind so much.

Oh? Then it must be a trap. What did they put in it? I don't trust anyone trying to give me sumthin for free, let alone pay me to take it from them. Whatever it is it must be truly diabolical.

Yeah, he hates Monday's, too. And Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, and Thursdays... pretty much just every day I guess. Oh, and he ate your lasagna, too. I saw it. 🤫

I just bought some last time I went to the supermarket. Been using a lot since I've been cooking at home a lot more. If this keeps up, soon crude might be cheaper and I might have to consider getting some and try cooking with it instead. 😝

It may not fit the block well, but I'd say it's the perfect show for our times right now. I'm really looking forward to its return, and plan on participating (or at least following, since I won't be able to say much having seen it already) in the discussion threads for it. I'm very interested to see what people who are watching it for the first time have to say about it.

The Last Dance 1 & 2 I totally forgot how much drama the Bulls had going on back in those days.

Excel Saga 5 - 8

Being able to easily open those plastic bags they have at the supermarket. Also, being able to blow bubbles with gum. I've never been able to do that. I don't know why.
