* [[Eagle Land]]: Played for laughs in one episode that takes place in an obviously exaggerated version of America.
* [[Eat the Dog]]: The trope is named for Excel's thought process right after she first found Menchi in ''[[Excel Saga (manga)|Excel Saga]]'' (the manga even goes so far as to literally translate her name as "Mince"), where Excel boiled down Menchi's existence to the simple equation of "[[Rebus Bubble|Dog = Creature = FOOD]]". The anime's [[Ending Theme]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=md3tuMKkrLE is sung by Menchi], and bemoans the poor creature's fate while a hand - presumably Excel's - periodically enters with a salt shaker to make sure she's properly seasoned.
** Except in the extremely bizarre final episode, in which the ending theme is sung by the translator, and a paw can be seen periodically entering with the salt shaker.
* [[Efficient Displacement]]: Excel and Pedro in the first episode.
