kimaguresan completed Revolutionary Girl Utena
Wasn't sure about picking this up to begin with, but so glad I did. Starts out kinda repetitive, but makes up for it all in spades in the last 2/3. Great music, great animation, and fantastic storytelling make this a win all-around.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 39)
Wild ending, crazy things. It looked like a massive tragic end, but we're left somewhat open ended. Although this is easily one of the best open endings I've had the opportunity to witness. Bravo.

No time to waste...cliffhangers unfair unless the next episode is waiting, which it is.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 37)
An episode of bittersweet good-byes even if no one really said good-bye. Utena goes to the arena once more to head to the castle to meet the Prince.

Final duel with Touga, Utena has the power to revolutionize the world. But she finds out about Anthy's relationship with her brother. Soapy for sure, but great drama in the final stretch here. End of the World indeed.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 35)
Moving closer to resolution. Utena's memories of who Anthy really is are returning, and the truth will be revealed. Touga's final duel with Utena is coming, but I must wait till tomorrow to likely finish this masterpiece.

This is getting tasty. Who's the prince? Who's the Rose Bride? Everything we thought we knew is changed, and it doesn't feel contrived at all.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 33)
The piece of the puzzle are coming together. Akio's pimping finally landed him Utena herself, but the finality is still too far away for me to see. Marching onward.

Not sure who Utena is talking to, but the outfit is criminal. She's still working out, too XD
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 32)
Well...that last scene was interesting. Akio and Touga just might have a thing going on. Satisfactory resolution for the night. I can sleep now.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 31)
Akio and Anthy's relationship has been found, but what's next, gah cliff hangers. Should sleep, but can't stop now.
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 31)
Nice catch. Utena picks up on Akio's harem building adventures. Now I know where Sugisaki's goal of the harem comes from.

Akio lets Nanami move in, and Utena randomly does stretches and handstands. Love it when Utena just randomly exercises during conversations.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 30)
Akio uses his Akiouality to seduce Utena now as well. He seems to get all the ladies. Pimptastic episode.
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 30)
Akio is a pimp...110% pimp.

This last arc is approaching epic at a very nice pace. Love the manipulation of the old duelists and how Akio and Touga bring them back into the fold.
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 28)
Since I've seen it about 3 times now, I really like Utena's new Duel entrance animation. Which is good since I'll probably see it a lot more in the coming episodes.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 27)
um...alrighty then. I think it was all Chu-Chu's doing.
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 27)
Nanami ran the student council for how many weeks while Touga was whacking it? Now she thinks she laid an egg...ditzy blonde girl. Of course I can't forget the Cowbell incident
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 26)
Since the duelists are pretty much known they spend more time on the duels, which is a good thing. Oh, Akio is a pimp. I mean, he's got a great car, great hair, gets all the ladies, and can drive while sitting on the hood of the car.
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 26)
I'm not exactly sure what they're doing here at the moment, but there's a lot of confusing images, and I'm starting to have trouble seeing who's who. Hoping this doesn't conclude lamely.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 25)
While this show is a tad formulaic, when it breaks into a new formula it shines. New duel format, new ED, same familiar characters. Yet, that familiarity feels new. Really good stuff.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 24)
Filler/re-cap episode. Got to re-see some of Nanami's finer moments through Tsuwabuki's eyes.
kimaguresan watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 23)
Epic episode, but still open ended. Suspect more to this arc. Chu chu
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 23)
oo Utena Challenged Mikage to a duel. First time that I can remember. I still dig the girls that use "boku".
kimaguresan watching Revolutionary Girl Utena (episode 23)
There are no more black roses. Seems like this arc may be coming to an end. Really good stuff in this second part.

Poor Wakaba, what does it take to realize that Saionji is still a dick? A duel apparently.

Is your animation budget low? Cue the montage to correct that issue. The animation is actually nice, just have to stretch the budget sometimes. Speaking of stretching, Utena stretching = HOT!
