    Fun fact:
    Anthy means "Flower" in greek, while Utena means "calyx" -- "the sepals of a flower, which forms a protective layer around a flower. So it's pretty representative of Utena's and Anthy's relationship, since Utena is always protecting Anthy.

    I learned something today. The Japanese name "Utena" means "sepal," the part of a flowering plant that protects the flower in bud and supports the petals when in bloom.

    This series is amazing, so surreal and strange and like many have pointed out really wonderful at exploring sexuality, gender, relationships, and adolescence. Every relationship in this show is really twisted though, and I don't mean romantic ones only, I mean ALL relationships. Only interactions that are healthy are between Anthy and Utena.

      Lady Panda I hate so much when Hollywood tries to make empowering women. It's shit most of the times. I don't care about Wonder Woman or Black Widow. They're boring and predicting Mary Sue's. One dimensional and stupid most of the times. I'm a man that rolls his eyes plenty of times someone mentions this kind of stuff and other questionably feminist arguments. But Utena is so good in comparison. They're not afraid to show her good and noble but also gullible and naive at first, to finally overcome her challenges and be herself

Mira "Oniisama e" que está dentro de las pioneras del yuri, o "Maria-sama ga miteru" donde principalmente todo es en subtexto pero sigue siendo yuri, aunque acá nos empeños a seguir llamándolos "shoujo-ai" cuando incluso ese termino se lee como "chica-amor", y curiosamente es parte del nombre de un anime (Video shoujo ai) que no es yuri

    This anime helped me to survive fall of 2020 and i will never forget it. What a deep and symbolic series, the OST is also so good.

    One of my best friends recommended this anime to me yesterday, upon asking her which anime she would watch over and over for the rest of her life if she was forced to. She said this one had many interpretations, and had such a good story, that she actually wouldn't mind watching it 100 times. So this is definitely in my to-watch-soon list. Do any of you think the same as her? (I mean the part of it having many interpretations, not the part of being able to watch it 100 times)

      Amanda S.C Yes, infact there is a whole forum site dedicated to analyzing and discussing this anime. This site: forums.ohtori.nu/viewforum.php?id=2
      This is quite easily my most favorite anime as well. Everytime you rewatch it you discover new things, and thus that opens up new possible interpretations. It's been a year since I first watched Utena, and I've already seen it 3 - 4 time. xD As others have said, its a bit of a slow start, but it picks up soon enough. The weird and surreal imagery will definitely keep you coming back. I hope you enjoy/enjoyed it!

    Utena and Anthy in full armour in the black and white horses are a reference to the original idea the whole series was based on.
    Ikuhara's Sailor Moon SuperS movie was going to be about Uranus riding a black pegasus to reach the end of the world and save Neptune from it while the other soldiers rode the white pegasus from the series to chase Uranus and get back their talismans.
    His idea was rejected, so Utena was born.
