@polychrome Excel saga delivered a timeless message about production meddling and audience self-censorship
@efi oh gosh the cold openers alone were all about the pains of making anime.
@polychrome
Is that the episode where the blue haired girl starts coughing blood all over the place?
@polychrome the overarching plot is about publishing disguised as fantasy invaders and each episode is made after a genre
and menchi, the "emergency food" dog, is named after ground beef
@yuki that'll be the next episode after that, yup. She technically did it during the entire series but that episode will be overkill because it's a 'bonus' feature that was intentionally too much for television and was only released as direct-to-video.
It's even intentionally 1 minute over the broadcast limit!
@rain and ofcourse, the time when Excel Saga actually featured Microsoft Excel.
