Across

[edit]
  • Elgala: The third agent of Across, who appears only in the manga, is a great source of frustration to Excel, mainly due to her insubordinate attitude, expensive tastes, her lack of inner monologue and her consequent inability to keep her opinions to herself.
  • Excel: The protagonist and title character, who, as Across' most senior agent, approaches her work with abundant determination but little foresight. Her mission is to further Across' conquest of the city, but her personal desire is to win Ilpalazzo's affection and praise.
  • Ilpalazzo: The charismatic but cold leader of Across, who seeks to rid the world of corruption. Despite his genius, he frequently suffers memory loss, hears voices, and sometimes manifests a different persona. He shows little regard for Excel, her efforts, or even her well-being, frequently casting her down an oubliette (the principal running gag in Excel Saga).
  • Hyatt: The second agent is a demure and frail woman with a habit of suddenly dying and reviving in quick succession. Despite this limitation, she soon becomes Ilpalazzo's favorite, but Hyatt seems unaware of his favor and holds Excel, her senior, in high regard.
  • Menchi:

Department of City Security

[edit]
  • Iwata, Norikuni:
  • Kabapu: Leader of the Department of City Security, who, despite his occupying a position of inscrutable power in the city government, is an object of ridicule among most of his subordinates due to his appearance, mannerisms, and seeming disregard for lives and laws.

Old section, tweaked

[edit]

Across

[edit]
  • Excel is the hyperactive protagonist and title character, who approaches her work with abundant determination, but little foresight. Her mission is to further Across' city conquest, but her personal desire is to win Ilpalazzo's affection and praise. Despite being his most senior officer, she frequently finds herself out of the loop or passed over for promotion.
  • Ilpalazzo, in contrast to Excel, is cold, reserved and calculating, but clearly has severe mental problems: he frequently suffers memory loss, hears voices, and sometimes manifests a different persona. He shows very little patience with Excel, frequently endangering her bodily well-being by dropping her down an oubliette (the principal running gag in Excel Saga) or otherwise punishing her.
  • Hyatt, a demure and frail woman with a habit of suddenly dying and reviving in quick succession. Despite this limitation, she soon becomes Ilpalazzo's favorite, but Hyatt seems unaware of his favor and holds her senior in high regard.
  • Menchi,[1] as both a pet and "emergency food supply"—but although Excel and Hyatt often plan to “declare a state of emergency” and have Menchi as a meal, they never do so.
  • Elgala joins Across. She proves to be a great source of frustration to Excel, mainly due to her insubordinate attitude, expensive tastes, and inability to keep her opinions to herself.

Department of City Security

[edit]
The Daitenzin en route to battle.
  • Kabapu himself occupies a position of inscrutable power in the city, and is able to bend its political establishment to his will. Despite his power, he is an object of ridicule among most of his subordinates due to his appearance, mannerisms, and seeming disregard for lives and laws. Unfazed by this, he informs the six members of the Department that they are to assume the role of the Daitenzin, a sentai fighting force.
  • Tooru Watanabe, who pinned his hopes for a romantic relationship with Hyatt on his position in the civil service but grows despondent as the nature of his employment becomes clear.
  • Daimaru Sumiyoshi, who is a voice of reason in the Department and is represented as communicating through free-floating text.[2]
  • Norikuni Iwata, is generally disliked for his boorishness but tolerated by his co-workers.
  • Misaki Matsuya, the fourth, is an attractive but ruthless young woman who provides much of the group's leadership.
  • The final Daitenzin are two android bomb-disposal experts called Ropponmatsu Unit 1 and Ropponmatsu Unit 2.
  • Other associates of the Department are Kabapu's assistant Ms. Momochi, and the lolita complex-stricken Gojo Shioji, designer of the Ropponmatsus.
