Description:
The closing episodes of this nonsensical series include spoofs of Captain Harlock, Gundam, Dragon Ball, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers ("Municipal Force Daitenzen"), and Fist of the North Star. The various sketchy plots involving Excel, Hyatt/Hatchan, Menchi, Watanabe, Sumiyoshi, and Iwata from the apartment next door, long-suffering Mr. Pedro, and Lord Il Palazzo, simply collapse in a welter of parodies, violence and flashbacks. The story more or less ends with episode 25, but the fun ends in episode 26: the film makers attempt to live up to the title "Going Too Far" with tasteless gags involving rivers of blood, love hotels, massage parlors, and plain old sex. Even fans of Excel are likely to be put off by this descent into vulgarity; the faint-hearted should avoid it entirely. (Rated 17 and older: violence, profanity, alcohol use, sexual and gross-out humor, including nudity, condoms, erections, and excrement) --Charles Solomon
