Let's live our lives heroically Let's live them with style
Even if the two of us are ever torn apart
Take my revolution
In the sunlit garden, we both joined our hands
Drawing close for comfort, we both swore
Never again would we ever fall in love
I see that photo of us smiling, standing cheek to cheek
I look at it and a bit of loneliness starts to fill me
Even if I dream, even if I cry, even if I get hurt
Reality keeps on coming recklessly
I wanna find out where I am, the value of being me
Gonna take who I've been up till now
And find the strength to throw it all away
Strip down to nothing at all
Become like a rose petal blowing free!
Even if the two of us are ever torn apart
I swear that I will change the world
You're as pretty as ever today, Miss Nanami.
Nobody else at this school can compare with you, Miss Nanami.
We're all so happy just to be near you, Miss Nanami!
Troublesome Insects
Say...
you're in our class, aren't you?
You want to be in our group?
Let's be friends!
That was a wonderful entrance ceremony, Nanami.
Big Brother!
That's Touga Kiryuu!
You're right! Touga from the student council!
Then, that girl is...
Touga's...little...sister?!
He's wonderful.
Oh, what a wonderful meeting!
I think meeting Miss Nanami has changed our lives!
We're so lucky we got to talk to Miss Nanami first!
We have to be grateful.
Miss Nanami chose us out of all the other students.
That's right! We've been chosen to serve Miss Nanami!
You're right, Aiko!
Keiko! Yuko!
From now on, let's join forces and try our best together!
Right!
We three are The Chosen, after all!
Let's do our best!
That's it! A party!
Why didn't I think of this sooner?
We'll have a grand party to cheer up my brother!
Grander than any other!
And I won't leave out anyone!
Everyone who's anybody in school will be invited!
Nanami, it's your turn to clean off the blackboards.
I just know that doing this will make my brother feel better!
What a wonderful idea, Miss Nanami!
Touga has been so withdrawn lately!
Your feelings for your brother are so moving!
Um, Nanami?
Girls, you will help me, won't you?
-Sure! -It'd be our pleasure!
-Party? -Please say that you'll go!
The council's in crisis, and she...! For heaven's sake.
Please come.
Miss Nanami's really worried about Touga...
SO PLEASE COME!
Please come.
I haven't seen Touga in such a long time.
I know he probably won't notice me, but...
Oh, Touga... Even if you don't, I still...
Aiko! Yuko!
We have to get ready...
to work together to help Touga and Miss Nanami!
Right. You're really pumped up for tonight, huh, Keiko?
Oh? Am I?
That's a new dress, isn't it? It looks nice on you.
-Really?! -Really! Really!
-It looks great! Right, Aiko? -Mm! It looks really nice!
Thank you, Yuko! Aiko!
Well?
Are we all ready?
-Y-Yeah. -Everything's all set.
Oh, yes, Keiko. I have a favor to ask.
What is it?
I totally forgot about something.
There's some student council paperwork...
that I need to finish up immediately.
Keiko, be a dear and do it for me, won't you?
Huh? But, the party...
It's all ready, isn't it?
Y-Yes.
Then there's no problem.
The paperwork's at school. Get going on it, okay?
Um...Miss Nanami?
Is something wrong?
-No. -Then go to it!
Right.
I've...
For so long...
I've watched Touga from afar.
For so long...
The only girl who can ever get near the prince...
is the princess from his fairy-tale world.
Touga. We live in different worlds.
That's right. A girl like me...
Touga looked better than we were expecting, huh?
But he still isn't showing up on campus.
If the president keeps this up, the council's gonna have trouble, huh?
Oh, are you that worried about my brother?
Sneaking around and spying on him...
it's disgusting!
Don't be stupid! Who's sneaking around?!
Oh, so now you're playing dumb?
You were just talking about him! You've got some nerve!
Nyah, nyah, nyah!
Nyah!
I just went to the party because I was invited.
Oh, so you figured "the more, the merrier"...
and took advantage of the invitation!
Some people have such nerve!
Now look...
Maybe you should learn when to butt out!
Exactly!
I can't stand the thought of people like you...
hanging around my brother!
That's right!
I won't let a single one of you vermin swarm him!
Let's go, girls!
Sorry, Miss Tenjou.
It's not your fault, Miki. She's always like that.
Excuse me! Um, was I? Was I asleep just now?!
Chu-Chu kept you up all night with his crying, huh?
The Pleiades open star cluster.
Known as "Subaru" in Japan...
it's mentioned in "The Pillow Book" by Sei Shonagon.
You know a lot about it, Miss Utena.
Um, actually, I just heard it from Akio.
He's been teaching me a lot lately.
I see.
The winter constellations. Good choice.
Big Brother.
It's lovely to see two friends together.
The twins of Gemini, Castor and Pollux, were said to be very close.
But seeing you admiring the stars together...
is a sight more beautiful than even Gemini.
Oh, come on.
Well, I'll see you guys later.
Yes, Miss Utena.
Listen to me, Anthy.
I want you to stay good friends with Utena.
Like the twins, Castor and Pollux.
Yes, Big Brother.
What should I do?
He's getting soaked.
I have an umbrella, but...
But Touga and me?
This chance will never come again!
Excuse me, Touga!
You can share my umbrella if you like.
This rain could make you sick.
Miss Nanami? It's me, Miss Nanami.
Where are you? Miss Nanami?
I'm here, Keiko.
Miss Nanami... You wanted me for something?
Keiko Sonoda, as of now, you are dismissed from all clubs...
your dorm council, cultural associations...
and any other groups you belong to.
But why, Miss Nanami?!
"Why?" you ask?! Don't play dumb!
I was careless.
The worst vermin of all was the one under my own feet!
I just didn't realize it until today!
-Miss Nanami! -I warned you!
Not one of you parasites will ever reach my brother!
And any vermin like you I find, I'll wipe out completely!
No...
You'd better resign yourself to your fate, Keiko dear.
Miss Nanami's going home now.
Then let's go back too.
Yuko! Aiko!
Please! You have to talk to Miss Nanami for me!
You're the only ones I can turn to!
Please!
-Did you hear something? -Not a thing.
I used to admire Miss Nanami from the bottom of my heart.
I really felt that way as I served her.
But the truth is that I was wrong.
I only stayed by Miss Nanami's side...
so that I could get a little closer to Touga.
If not for that, then who would?!
Deeper. Go deeper.
That selfish little...!
I'm just a single girl.
I can love whoever I want to!
So why should I constrain myself for that woman!
Just because she's Touga's little sister...
she monopolizes his love!
Right in front of me!
How do you think that makes me feel?!
She doesn't understand!
She won't even try!
I understand.
Your only option is to revolutionize the world.
The path you must take has been prepared for you.
Where?
Touga, my love...
Look at me.
Oh, Touga...
Touga...
From now on, look only at me...
"UTENA TENJOU"
Extra! Extra! Extra!
Any bad bugs here?!
Eek! The boogeyman!
No! I'm a mantis! Snik-snik-snik!
Run for your lives, everyone!
Snik-snik-snik!
Run! Run!
Snik-snik-snik-snik-snik-snik!
Run! Run! Run! Run! Run!
Snik-snik- snik-snik-snik-snik!
Run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run!
How long is this chase gonna go on?!
Have some insecticide!
Argh! Can't breathe!
Now we're gonna die too!
Ooh...What rotten luck!
That was just air freshener, you know.
The absolute destiny: Apocalypse
Birth records, baptismal records, records of death
The absolute destiny: Apocalypse
My own birth, absolute birth
Apocalypse
A shining place in a desert of darkness
A gold-plated Shangri-La
Day and night turning back on one another
A time-plated Paradise Lost
The darkness of Sodom, the darkness of light
The darkness of distance, endless, endless darkness
The absolute destiny: Apocalypse
The absolute destiny: Apocalyptic darkness
You're...
Upon the Black Rose, I swear...
I shall win this duel and kill the Rose Bride!
You're...
With Touga's sword, I shall defeat you!
Touga's sword?
For my future with Touga, I will fight.
Now! Draw your sword!
Vanish! Fade away! Melt away!
Disappear!
Any and all around me!
Grant me the power to bring the world revolution!
Vanish! Fade away! Melt away!
Disappear!
Instant ersatz people around me!
Why are you doing this?!
You, more than anyone, know what Nanami's really like!
They, who betray my dreams!
She doesn't even consider me human!
They, who betray my dreams!
But, even knowing that, I still served her!
They, who take vengeance on my hopes
I still don't understand. Why do you have Touga's sword?
You don't have to understand!
I've had enough of this age!
I'm going to run!
Everything, begone!
Can you beat this sword, Utena Tenjou?!
There's nothing left for me to want!
Can you beat Touga's sword? The noblest sword in the world?!
With this sword, I shall have great power!
And with it, I'll kill her!
I'll kill Nanami who stands between me and Touga!
Straddling an unmanned sidecar
Taking a fantasy journey of 3000 leagues
That's right. The real vermin here...is Nanami.
Yes, I see. She is the real parasite.
Subway, highway, airway
Here I go! At 100 km/h!
The wonder! The hurricane! The fugitive!
I don't even know her name.
I always thought she was Nanami's friend.
It's scary how the roots of hatred can spread...
under the surface where you can't see them.
Another failure.
But it was fun to see her describe her mistress as an insect.
I'm happy to just be near you, Miss Nanami!
There's no way someone like me could ever love Touga, right?
Exactly. When you consider your situation, it's obvious.
You'll stay with me like this forever, right, Keiko?
Yes, of course I will.
And we'll always be friends, right, Keiko?
Exactly. No matter what happens, right?
I just don't get it...
The one with the pigtails and curly bangs is Keiko.
The one with shoulder-length hair that curls outward is Aiko.
And the one whose hair curls in around her cheeks is Yuko.
I don't mean that. Why is she back with Nanami?
With all those feelings she really has, why?
That's easy.
If it's for someone you love...
how you feel about others doesn't matter.
You keep lying to yourself for as long as it takes.
Missing truth and forever, kissing love and true your heart
Hold me tight with your arms so true
The key to unlock tomorrow is reality
I want to keep on smashing lies apart
No matter how much the two of us may talk
You still just can't see anything
Excuses are fitting for adults who just cling to old stories
The angels who were passed over don't need wings to fly!
Missing truth and forever, kissing love and true your heart
I like who I'll be tomorrow and
I'll believe in myself because I want to believe
I want to keep on hating lies
Hey, Himemiya, have you heard the story...
about the dorm where 100 boys vanished?
-Yes. -It looks like it's actually true!
I heard the students and their professor were lost in a fire...
in Nemuro Memorial Hall here at Ohtori Academy!
But that was a long, long time ago, wasn't it?
Next time, on Revolutionary Girl Utena:
