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
Please.
Please, don't open this coffin.
You're saying that girl was Utena Tenjou?
The girl we found in the coffin?
She's still all alone in her coffin.
And if I'm to save her, I must defeat her!
Maybe the Chairman did save her that time...
but she's still trapped in that coffin.
No. It's not just her.
We're all trapped in our coffins.
And Thus Opens the Doorway of Night
How do you like it?
It feels good once you're used to it, doesn't it?
Yeah. My heart was pounding before.
A lot.
Really? I'm glad.
It's been a long time...
since I could relax in the woods like this.
It's almost like I'm dreaming.
It was a lot of fun.
Lovely. The way you look.
Like a princess you'd find in the woods.
Akio... You sound sincere when you say that.
It's true.
- Welcome back. - Thanks.
Why is it?
She looks like a girl to me now.
Well, of course Miss Tenjou is a girl!
I know. And yet...
To be honest, she seems that way to me, too.
I see.
But isn't that a good thing?
You really believe that?
Something's changing. No, not something.
Everything is. The entire school is changing.
The entire school?
You mean, as if...
It was a revolution?
Yes.
Yes. The day of the revolution is approaching.
But what is this vague, awful feeling I have?
Well? Doesn't the throb of the engine feel good?
Not particularly.
Oh, no?
You have weird tastes. It's not good.
You don't like it because I'm driving?
I don't like not being in control!
Or letting anyone get too deep into my heart!
You never could hold in your hostility, could you?
You think I care?
What are you planning to do?
Are you just going to duel Utena Tenjou?
Just do what End of the World wants?
She's lovely now.
You mean Utena?
Oh, yes.
Innocent and sweet. An unmatched princess!
I treasure her.
I hear you.
It's time to rise from our coffins!
From the coffins End of the World has prepared for us!
I'll have my answer soon.
- Tonight! - Tonight?
- Saionji. - Yeah?
Standing like that is dangerous.
Right.
Jeez. Oh, well. You're gonna catch cold.
I wonder if Himemiya's with Akio again.
Tell me, Chu-Chu, are you always left alone...
when she goes to visit her brother like this?
Mr. President.
My business is urgent. Will you come with me?
You're kidding, right?
What do you want with me at this hour?
What if I said this concerned End of the World?
All right.
I've never come to the Dueling Arena at night before.
Scared?
No, it's not that.
It just doesn't feel the way it usually does.
How does it feel?
"How does it feel?''
Romantic, perhaps?
No way!
I'm happy to be riding up to heaven alone with you like this.
H- Hey!
Don't stand so close!
Forgive me.
This is exciting.
Like when I snuck out into the park at night when I was little.
This is where I dueled you.
Yes, it was.
So many stars out.
What the--
You're beautiful.
I'm so happy I was able to meet a person as lovely as you.
Oh, there you go again.
Could you forget that and just get to the point?
Are you in love with the Chairman?
Can it be?
Is that possible?
But, Akio's engaged.
I see.
Why'd you ask me that?
Aren't you going to tell me about End of the World?
End of the World?
I can't say who he is now.
You'll know who he is soon enough.
But before that, there's something I want to ask you.
- What? - Can't I be your prince?
You're the only princess for me.
- Would you quit it? - I'm serious!
I love you.
From the bottom of my heart. You're everything to me.
Your nobility and beauty have won you many admirers.
Even if I cannot be worthy of you...
let me be here with you for this moment at least.
Just that would be enough.
If I can just engrave this feeling into me...
of being with you tonight, it would be enough.
Will you at least let me have that?
All right.
Thank you.
Can't I be your prince?
That reminds me. What I thought when I first met him...
I wondered if the President was my prince.
Well? Do you have your answer now?
Yes. Last night showed me very clearly.
You mind telling me?
It's clear that I really do care for her.
So, now what?
I will fight her again!
And I must win!
It's the only way I can save her!
If she wins the next duel...
she gains the power to bring the world revolution.
But, if she does that...
She'll fall into End of the World's hands!
Well, shall we go?
Miss Utena?
Where were you last night?
Oh, uh... no place.
Hello! May we join you?
What?
I want you to duel me again.
What are you thinking?
Don't you wish to protect the Rose Bride?
Yes. I won't let anyone take Himemiya.
I promise. If you win this duel...
the student council will never try to take the Rose Bride again.
However, if I win, you must become my woman!
I misjudged you.
I never thought you'd say something like that!
No objections?
No.
Clop-clop, clop-clop!
Hear ye! Hear ye! Those on far, lend me your ears!
Those who are near, look upon me!
I am the Prince of the White Horse!
Oh, my! The Prince of the White Horse!
Such a long mane! Such slender legs! How wonderful!
Um, no. That's the white horse of the prince...
not the Prince of the White Horse. I'm the Prince of the White Horse.
But you look like a human prince to me.
Yes, I'm human, but I'm called the Prince of the White Horse.
So, you're a prince, too? That's so wonderful! Really!
You really want your prince to be a horse?
Of course, of course.
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
This battle decides who will bring the world revolution!
I don't care about that!
Anyway, if I win, you promise...
to never come after Himemiya again, all right?
Yes.
Grant us the power to bring the world revolution!
Element... Element...
Cataclysm... Cataclysm...
Dream of the end of the world
Selfishly enjoy yourself
Element... Element...
Even after we came here last night!
Cataclysm... Cataclysm...
Personal feelings are forbidden in combat, MISS TENJOU!
North Pole lemming Siberian antelope
The final judgement of nature
Tenjou! I will protect you!
A fantastic fate A prophecy of destruction
A philosophical revolution The paradise of lost paradise
How many times have we dueled here?
An accidental epic A cosmic cataclysm
A thousand years of dread The Nirvana Principle
This is the third.
Strange. It feels like it's been dozens of times.
Human birth Human wisdom
Human knowledge Human pleasure

Please, Himemiya...

Trust me. I swear I'll protect you.
- Really? - You don't believe me?
We know it so well
The image in our mirrors
What we see there, the image of our flesh
As we are eternally absent, it becomes just an allegory
Allegory, allegorier, allegoriest
Let's go. Akio is waiting.
Wait!
You're now the one who will bring the world revolution.
But don't let your guard down around End of the World...
or the Rose Bride!
That's the last advice I offer you!
You just don't give up. Farewell, Mr. President.
Touga.
Is it over for us?
No.
It won't be over until we see the very end.
You must be tired after today.
Please, get some rest.
Isn't it great, Himemiya? Now...
Now no one's after you.
Yes.
Akio...
Oh, great. I fell asleep on top of the covers.
Where's Himemiya?
Oh, there she is.
Ancient times, Perfection, Isolation in the desert
Atmosphere, Atom Causality star
Yes, a native child is conceived
The embryo of philosophy
And then lunar heaven! Mercurian heaven, Venusian heaven
Solar heaven, Martian heaven Jovian heaven, Saturnian heaven
Stellar heaven, Motive heaven And then
The endless surface of the Taurus
A single organic mechanism
A single perpetual motion machine
Ah, it is empty motion
Just empty motion
That's what it is
"And there, we will meet once more.
Signed, Your Prince.''
Miss Utena, you got a letter from End of the World, didn't you?
Oh, Himemiya. I just can't forgive what you've done.
Miss Utena, don't you know?
How much I've always despised you?
