an observation while watching Utena

[sorceressakemi]

THE SCENE: SARAH and AKEMI are chillin' on SARAH'S couch, watching the Student Council Arc of Shoujo Kakumei Utena, which both have seen before but not for a while.

YOUNGER TOUGA: Blah blah blah he's a 'friend to all girls/chivalrous/something along those lines'.
SARAH: Wait a second, did he just say he's a feminist?
AKEMI: What? Did he?
SARAH: *backs it up a bit*
YOUNGER TOUGA: Boku wa feministo.
SARAH and AKEMI: HOLY CRAP HE TOTALLY DID HA HA HA HA HA
SARAH and AKEMI: *go back to watching*
OLDER TOUGA, SOMETIME LATER: Boku wa feministo.
SARAH and AKEMI: *totally lose it*
SARAH and AKEMI: *for a while*
SARAH and AKEMI: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
