Ilpalazzo wants one thing: to rule world so he can better it. Excel just wants to help. Too bad she sucks at her job.
Excel becomes an agent of the secret ideological organization of ACROSS, whose plan is to conquer the corrupt world (or at least F City) and remake it in its own image. Lord Ilpalazzo, ACROSS's leader, orders Excel start the conquest by exterminating the world's manga artists starting with Koshi Rikdo, the original author of the Excel Saga manga.
Earth is being invaded by the Puuchus, creatures from space who are SO ADORABLY CUTE!!! It's up to Excel to save the day, despite the fact she doesn't quite know what the heck she's doing.
In a parody of low budget action movies, Excel becomes a POW in a jungle war zone. Meanwhile Hyatt, ACROSS's newest member, is sent out by Ilpalazzo to find her.
In the style of a dating simulation game, Watanabe, one of Excel's next door neighbors, falls in love with Hyatt and takes her out on a date. Meanwhile, Ilpalazzo is shown playing a handheld dating simulation game which is apparently influencing Watanabe's actions.
Excel and Hyatt infiltrate city hall, where they stumble upon the wheeling and dealing world of the F City government.
Ilpalazzo sends Excel and Hyatt on an excursion to the mountains to set up lasers pointing towards F City. Meanwhile, Watanabe, Iwata, and Sumiyoshi (Excel's next-door neighbors) join the F City Department of City Security where they meet Misaki Matsuya, an attractive, but fierce red head.
Excel and Hyatt try to divert the Department of City Security's investigation of a sewer that leads to ACROSS's secret base. However, the return of those (not-so) adorable Puuchus may screw up everybody's plan.
It's girls' day out as all the female characters chill out at the neighborhood pool while the guys remain off-camera. Excel and Hyatt meet up with a cute 8 year old named Cossett Sara, who actually hides dark secret.
While infiltrating a local bowling alley, a group of bowling terrorists take the alley and its occupants hostage. It is up to Excel, using her newfound bowling techniques, to save the day (hopefully).
Menchi runs away from Excel's apartment and joins a group a strays who try to return her to her old owner.
Excel and Hyatt investigate the Japanese education system by going undercover as teachers at Excel's old high school. While at the school, the two are charged with the task of managing the school's baseball team in their upcoming match against a rival high school.
The F City Department of City Security shadows a young, cute (yet possessed) female detective, trying to solve the mystery of her father's murder. Meanwhile, Hyatt gets kidnapped by a couple of bumbling robbers.
The cast and crew ring in the new year by doing a recap episode in the style of a New Year's Eve contest special, with Excel and Hyatt hosting the festivities.
The F City Department of City Security gains a new member in the form of Ropponmatsu, a female android bomb disposal unit who becomes a new love interest for Iwata. However, Ropponmatsu will be put to the ultimate test when ACROSS delivers a bomb in an alley.
A second Ropponmatsu unit appears, but this time in the form of a young, irritating cat-girl who gets on everyone's nerves. Moreover, when a second bomb appears in F City from ACROSS (disguised as a panda no less), it is up to Ropponmatsu 2 to save the day.
A shipping error lands prototype versions of Ropponmatsus 1 and 2 into Excel's and Hyatt's care. Upon arrival, the two female androids fall in love with the ACROSS agents, causing much chaos, pandemonium, and hilarity.
Ilpalazzo sends Excel and Hyatt to investigate the United States where they stumble upon the anime mafia, who had gotten Pedro's son, Sandora, involved. Excel saves the day, using the conventions of Japanese and American animation, including a vaguely familiar magical girl parody.
In an attempt to secure the city, Kabapu dresses his Department of City Security in Power Ranger-type outfits equipped with new powers. The department then wreaks havoc on F City fighting crime, even the tiny, insignificant ones.
Menchi makes a trip around the world with a young industry heiress, who, when she isn't plugging Alps Electric, is being hunted by an evil and bloodthirsty assassin, who has a score to settle with Menchi, too. Meanwhile, Hyatt and her senior are sent by Ilpalazzo on a world-spanning mission to find special objects that would ensure the final victory of ACROSS over all else once and for all.
The entire Pedro side story is revisited in this recap episode, including some new scenes that deepen the plot.
Key, a visually appealing musician, arrives at the ACROSS base to deliver (or rather sing) a message from ACROSS HQ to Lord Ilpalazzo. However due to a lack of inspiration, Key is unable to deliver the message. Frustrated (and jealous), Ilpalazzo orders Excel and Hyatt to look after Key until he is able to deliver the message.
The Puuchus are back, and this time they mean business! In a nod to Leiji Matsumoto, as well as the Gundam series, the Puuchus wage war over the invasion of Earth, and Excel is caught right in the middle of it!
When F City falls into ruin due to the events of the previous episode, law and order cease to exist and powerful gangs rule the barren wastelands. It is up to Excel to restore order back into the chaos. Little does she know that there is a sinister plot to do her in for good, from the last place she would expect.
In an episode devoid of humor (as per Koshi Rikdo's orders), Excel suffers amnesia from the deep trauma received from the previous episode, Ilpalazzo tries to come to terms with the decisions he had made, and the Department of City Security vows to stop ACROSS, once and for all.
Rikdo gives permission to end the series. Featuring Kabapu's tax-funded, politically incorrect Mech, the Ballistik Buddy, this episode leads to several final confrontations.
This episode involves deliberately putting so many things too unfit to air on TV (in fact, it's a minute too long to air on TV stations), it had to be released on DVD. This is the moment everything comes to an end.
