I loved this episode so much. It had Wakaba being awesome, Utena kicking Touga's ass and some very interesting and touching moments for Anthy.

I'm so glad your enjoying this show!

Utena kicks Touga's ass, with a broken sword, just like she beat Saioniji!

It's not that hard to do, it's a really great show!

This episode. I shall squee over it for years to come. No, more like the rest of my life. I've downloaded the episodes, it won't be difficult to do re-watch marathons whenever I'm in the mood.

Ah, but the groom is the one to pull the sword out of the Rose Bride's chest...

...

...Erm, very sexual imagery.

Ah, now it's stuck in my head again anyway. *hums*

Whether they're aliens or not, the Shadow Play girls certainly haven't flown away for good!

The next arc is up now!

Honestly? While the whole 'Sword of Dios' is definitely full of sexual imagery, I'm rather hard pressed to decipher how it would translate into the more literal realm. Seriously, had Freud survived to the modern day, he would have loved this show.

Well, the arc will be up, just as soon as we get the clip show over and done with. Hopefully the Revolutionary Girl Utena writers will manage to do something interesting with it!

True, true. Eek, true.

The clip show is what introduces the next arc, you see! ;)

Utena generally manages to slip some fairly startling revelations into its recap episodes, just to be sneaky.
