Buy Over a hundred years have passed since humanity lost the war to a strange race of beasts that they call Monsters.

But not all of humanity has surrendered completely. A small group called the warriors of Melos still fight on, inspired only by a vision of a young lady known as the 'Melody of Oblivion', remembering an almost forgotten legend that if she is found and freed, then the monsters can be defeated.

Unlike the rest of them, though, Jun has managed to hold a tenuous grip onto her humanity, and she is recruited by the mysterious Asuka Ran, member of a secret organization within the government, aimed at controlling, if not eliminating, these berserk destroyers of mankind. Jun, as Devilman Lady, must now exterminate her own kind, but how much longer can she keep her sanity in a situation she never chose in the first place?

If you're into weird anime, then Excel Saga is right for you. Join Excel, the indestructible agent of the mysterious ACROSS organization, as she survives (or not) every episode the creators and animators can think up. Parodies are abundant and the storyline is almost none-existent, but if you have a twisted mind, this series is for you.
