Earnest young girls Excel, Hyatt and Elgala (mere codenames) hold down minimum-wage jobs to support their true avocation: trying to conquer the city of Fukuoka for the secret organization ACROSS and its dreamy bishōnen dictator, Il Palazzo--a man whose dignity is such that he could never acknowledge that ACROSS consists of himself, a leaky basement, three unpaid interns in their early twenties, and a stray dog. But society is all to blame, as creator Kōshi Rikudō takes aim at everything from organized religion to public television, in a manga that makes reindeer spit blood and puts puppies on the dinner menu. ___ **Official English (Digital):** [emaqi - United States & Canada only!](https://emaqi.com/manga/excel-saga)
