A list of characters from Rikdo Koshi's comedy/gag series ''[[Excel Saga (Mangamanga)|Excel Saga]]''. This page covers both the anime and manga versions, with characters and tropes noted accordingly.
----
 
Line 67:
* [[Blood From the Mouth]]
* [[Comedic Sociopathy]]: Hyatt is possibly not aware of how much damage she causes, unlike the rest of ACROSS, who do not care. On a smaller scale, she does not know about all the emotional grief she causes Watanabe.
* [[Death Byby Falling Over]]
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: During the final five episodes.
* [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]]: A true deathly pallor.
* [[Girl in Aa Box]]: In the anime at least, Hyatt was first seen in a coffin aboard the Puuchu spaceship, which later floated into ACROSS headquarters.
* [[Ill Girl]]: So ill that she will die for no reason.
* [[Incurable Cough of Death]]: Parodied, as Hyatt constantly falls over dead, but never stays dead for long.
Line 129:
* [[Long-Haired Pretty Boy]]
* [[Jerkass]]: On ''any'' occasion in which he loses his composure, he shows himself as a major one.
* [[Orcus Onon His Throne]]: Happens in the anime and the manga. When Il Palazzo finally decides to do things on his own, he not only manages to conquer most of Fukuoka, but (in the anime) singlehandedly takes on and destroys an army of Ropponomatsus.
* [[Phrase Catcher]]: "Hail Il Palazzo!"
* [[Shoulders of Doom]]: Just look at the size of those epaulets!
Line 172:
* [[The Dulcinea Effect]]: Immediately gets himself years into debt just because "Ms. Ayasugi" asks for help.
* [[Hero Antagonist]]
* [[Medium Awareness]]: Watanabe is fully aware of Sumiyoshi's [[Talking Withwith Signs]] in the anime.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Was this in the anime for being the only one who questioned anything, not that it did him any good. Was this for a while in the manga, {{spoiler|until he snapped when Il Palazzo took Hyatt away from him}}.
* [[Straight Man]]: To Iwata and Sumiyoshi.
* [[Throw the Dog Aa Bone]]: Hyatt is last seen is his custody in the anime. This, combined with ACROSS' downfall, gives him a good shot of finally getting with her.
* [[Token Evil Teammate]]: Post-freakout, though his evil actions are limited to buying S&M videogames and not being fazed at all by Kabapu.
** He was also gleefully eager to arrange Il Palazzo's car to be rigged with an explosive.
Line 215:
* [[Kansai Regional Accent]]: Sumiyoshi speaks in subtitles in the anime. In the manga he uses the dialect of Okayama, which is much closer to where Fukuoka actually ''is''. It may be a subtle form of [[Lampshade Hanging]], as everyone else speaks Standard Japanese instead of the city's own dialect, Hakata-ben.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Was this around volume 18 of the manga, when Watanabe was suffering from his freak out and Matsuya had given up. Defers to Matsuya again once she starts trying to get everyone out of trouble.
* [[Talking Withwith Signs]]: anime version only; the manga translation by [[Viz Media]] gives him a very thick accent and a speech font different from everyone else's.
* [[Ugly Guys Hot Daughter|Ugly Guy's Cute Little Sister]]
* [[The Voiceless]]: He [[Talking Withwith Signs|communicates through subtitles.]]
** In the manga his dialogue lacks voice bubbles, but it seems that he is speaking audibly.
 
Line 363:
[[File:Dr_Iwata_3436.jpg|frame]]
 
A parody of Dr. [[Black Jack (Manga)|Black Jack]]. Dr. Iwata is a brilliant but irresponsible doctor whose father owns the hospital. He is kept in check by his assistant. He is Iwata's cousin, whom he hates for giving him a giant X-shaped scar across his face with a pair of scalpels when they were four.
 
Since Dr. Iwata works at the local hospital, he has had first hand experience with Hyatt's ability to die and resurrect.
----
* [[The Cameo]]: Appeared in one scene in the anime, in the non-canon episode that didn't air.
* [[Dr. Jerk]]: He is a parody of [[Black Jack (Manga)|Black Jack]], but without the redeeming qualities.
* [[Scars Are Forever]]: Has had a giant X-shaped scar on his face since he was four.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Connections]]: His daddy owns the hospital, so he doesn't think he needs to worry about medical ethics.
Line 422:
[[File:Nabeshin_Excel_Saga_1568.jpg|frame]]
 
The [[Badass]] director of the ''[[Excel Saga (Animeanime)|Excel Saga]]'' anime and alter ego of [[Shinichi Watanabe]]. He is usually seen doing some cool spy thing in the background, hanging out with the show writers, or arguing with Koshi Rikdo over the direction of the series.
