Full review
One aspect of this series that can quickly be realised after the first couple of episodes is that it's popularity and energy all stems from the character Excel. She is an amazingly strange girl who is loud and obsessed with her leader Ilpalazzo, she is clueless and quite likely to die as she did in the first episode (no kidding).
What I especially like is that the writer Koshi Rikdo has also been animated and appears at the beginning of every episode to grant the others characters or staff to turn the anime into...whatever!. This is just an experimental anime and every episode there is a different theme: animals, rock, drama, war. With hilarious results!!.
My only problem is the cast for the English Dub. I recommend you watch this series with the Japanese Audio switched on, the Japanese cast far surpass the American cast.
