Kabapu himself occupies a position of inscrutable power in the city, and is able to bend its political establishment to his will. Paralleling Il Palazzo's Across is Kabapu's Department of City Security. Adding to tension with Excel is the secrecy surrounding Elgala's missions for Il Palazzo. Elgala has refined, and expensive tastes, which does not suit the austerity demanded by Excel, leading to frequent conflict. Since Elgala is a snob who thinks nearly everyone is below her, these thoughts are often of the disparaging variety and frequently irritate Excel. She is cursed with the inability to maintain an internal monologue, constantly speaking aloud her innermost thoughts and feelings. Despite this, the two girls usually get along just fine, and Excel even calls her "Ha-chan" while Hyatt calls her senpai.Įlgala ( エルガーラ, Erugāra) Elgala is the third agent of ACROSS and Excel's rival for Il Palazzo's affections. In both the anime and the manga, she is noticeably Il Palazzo's favorite officer, usually receiving lighter punishment and higher promotions than Excel. Her curious medical condition is never explained in detail, neither in the manga nor in the anime (although later volumes of the manga hint that Il Palazzo has implanted something in her body that is causing it-and it is implied in the anime that, as she is from Mars, Earth's atmosphere is bad for her lungs). In the original manga, Hyatt joins ACROSS by simply answering an advert placed by Il Palazzo the anime, meanwhile, states that she is a mysterious princess from space (supposedly) with a connection to the Puuchuus and Space Butler. Hyatt ( ハイアット, Haiatto) is Excel's frail junior officer, with a tendency to cough huge amounts of blood, drop dead and suddenly spring back to life in quick succession. Hyatt Voiced by: Omi Minami (Japanese) Monica Rial (English) Discrepancies between the two media aside, both manga and anime make it clear that Lord Il Palazzo suffers from severe psychological disorders, most notably multiple personality disorder. These foibles notwithstanding, Il Palazzo is no ordinary human being, as testify his yellow, cat-like eyes and seemingly supernatural powers exhibited in episode twenty-five the manga would later reveal him to be a survivor of the ancient lost civilization of Solaria. While presented as a mostly dark and serious character in the original manga, the anime lightens the tone with the recurring gag that, despite all his scheming, Il Palazzo really has nothing to do while Excel and Hyatt are out on missions: he is often seen pursuing surprisingly ordinary hobbies like learning to play the guitar and arranging domino blocks. Lord Il Palazzo often prefaces his orders and speeches by proclaiming, "The world is corrupt!" He has little patience for Excel, often assigning complex operations to Hyatt. Il Palazzo ( イルパラッゾ, Iru Parazzo) is the leader of ACROSS.
Il Palazzo Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu (Japanese) Jason Douglas (English) In the English dub, voice actress Jessica Calvello damaged her voice after the 13th episode, and was replaced by Larissa Walcott for the second half of the series. For an extended period of time in later volumes of the manga, Excel suffers from memory loss, and lives with the Shiouji family under the assumed name, Teriha Shiouji, while Ropponmatsu, disguised as Excel herself, takes her place in the ACROSS ranks. She displays a schoolgirl crush towards Il Palazzo that borders on fanatic obsession, even going as far as to converse with a picture of him while home alone. In the anime, she has a tendency to speak extremely quickly. She is in quick succession impossibly lucky and impossibly unlucky, but she never manages to complete a mission without help, and even her successes are usually attained by happenstance. Excel approaches her work with an excess of determination and enthusiasm, but a lack of foresight and understanding. ACROSS Excel Voiced by: Kotono Mitsuishi (Japanese) Jessica Calvello and Larissa Wolcott (English)Įxcel ( エクセル, Ekuseru), the title character, was initially the sole officer of ACROSS. The Excel Saga anime characters were designed by Ishino Satoshi.
