History Headscratchers / ExcelSaga

** The final episode isn't canon to the storyline. Koshi Rikudo stated that he was giving permission to "end the series" in episode 25. Episode 26 was made ''specifically'' to push what they could get away with, which is why [[UpToEleven it makes even less logical sense than the rest of the series in terms of plot.]]

* How did Ms. Momochi get [[spoiler: Tenmangu's phone number]]?

*** That character is based on Maetel from ''GalaxyExpress999'', not Julia from ''Anime/CowboyBebop''. If I recall correctly, the death-scene is a reference to a yet another anime, but again, not ''Anime/CowboyBebop''.

* I know Nabeshin's outfit is a shout out to Lupin III, but am I the only one who also saw a strong influence from [[CowboyBebop Spike Spiegel]]? The afro is certainly reminiscent of Spike's... unique hairstyle. Besides, that'd make Nabeshin the awesome fusion of the two most famous Watanabe in animation.

*** I thought the death scene ''was'' referencing [[CowboyBebop Julia]]. The similarities are just too remarkable to be a coincidence, and given how Anime/ExcelSaga parodies anime it would make perfect sense.

* In the manga, they translated Sumiyoshi's speech as a [[NorthEastEngland Geordie]] British accent. It would have been bad enough if he had a Southern United States accent, or a regular British accent, but as it is, his speech is nearly impossible to decipher without multiple readings. WHY?! WHY DID THEY DO THIS?! The translator responsible for this should be fired.

'''IMPORTANT NOTE:''' Before you write any new entry, ask yourself these 2 questions
* Can it be explained via RuleOfFunny?
* Is this series supposed to be serious?

* I really have a hard time believing Menchi is a dog. He looks more like a cat to me.

** YourMileageMayVary. His FunetikAksent is one thing I LOVE about the manga and it made me aware of Geordie. It also makes me like Sumiyoshi even more.

** If you're thinking {{Rule34}} territory, then yes.

* In the final episode, what happened to Cossette's mother and why is she back to being an assassin?

* When the gaming menu comes up, what is that "Put it in" option? If it is what I think... SoYeah

** Because the translator thought it defines the cultural differences better than any other option available. And this troper is not a native English-speaker, yet has no trouble whatsoever in understanding Sumiyoshi. You're exaggerating the difficulty quite a bit .
