Revolutionary Girl Utena

Why...?

Why...?

You remind me so much of Dios when I loved him.

But you can never be my prince.

Because you're a girl.

Hime... Himemiya...!

I warned you. This isn't a game.

The duel named "Revolution," huh...?

Don't take it off yet!

She has entered the Dueling Arena representing us Duelists.

Until everything is finally settled,

we must remain Duelists.

I've already taken mine off.

I just want to forget about this whole thing.

Can we ever forget?

That reminds me.

That boy's name...

I've forgotten it now.

What boy?

Years ago, when my older sister was just a child,

she nearly drowned in a river.

A boy jumped into the water to try and save her.

And then...?

Luckily for her, a nearby adult managed to rescue my sister.

But the boy who had jumped in to save her was washed away.

You mean... He drowned?

My sister soon forgot the boy's name.

"What a cold hearted person she is," I thought.

But now, as hard as I try,

I can't remember his name, either.

Hey...

Hey...

Why did you just tell us that story?

Anthy, the sword.

What's wrong? Why do you hesitate?

You have regrets?

I suppose it's because you've ended up bringing sorrow to your friend.

Yes...

All of this is my fault.

Do you hate what I've become?

Perhaps, if I tried to be a prince like I used to be...

...no one would have to get hurt.

Your pain and your suffering...

I feel them always, as a part of me.

Knowing everything of the world,

you chose this path.

And knowing everything of you, I love you.

Yes, Big Brother.

Anthy, the sword.

That's good.

Good girl, Anthy.

The Rose Gate...

The portal which seals the power to revolutionize the world.

Here they come...

ANTHY!!

Hime... miya...

Don't...

Hime...

Oh, stubborn and reckless hero...

You let me have a small taste of true friendship.

Farewell.

No... Don't...

Hime... miya...

Hi... me...

Missing link...

Missing link...

The million swords which shine with human hatred... Missing link...

The million swords which shine with human hatred... The lost link in the chain.

The lost link in the chain.

They are stirred by the sight of this prince's sword.

They are stirred by the sight of this prince's sword. Though I am disconnected...

Though I am disconnected...

Even so, I continue to evolve.

Stars up above...

Witch! Witch! Witch! Stars up above...

Witch! Witch! Witch! Why do I exist in this world?

Missing link...

Himemiya! Missing link...

Missing link...

HIMEMIYA! Missing link...

HIMEMIYA!

HIMEMIYA! Missing link...

Missing link...

The lost link in the chain.

Though I am disconnected...

Even so, I have the power to join.

She takes the swords in place of the prince.

She takes the swords in place of the prince. Mirage before me...

Mirage before me...

That is the destiny of the Rose Bride. Mirage before me...

That is the destiny of the Rose Bride. Why am I here now?

Why am I here now?

All of this is what Anthy has chosen for herself... Why am I here now?

Himemiya...! Why am I here now?

Why am I here now?

Himemiya! Why am I here now?

I did not want to be born...

Himemiya! Himemiyal! 1 did not want to be born...

I did not want to be born...

HIMEMIYAL!!! I did not want to be born...

HIMEMIYA!!! ...and yet I was born all the same.

...and yet I was born all the same.

Now, the seal shall be broken. ...and yet I was born all the same.

...and yet I was born all the same.

Now, the door to a new world shall be opened!

Now, the door to a new world shall be opened! The most resourceful thing,

The most resourceful thing,

would be my heart.

Though I am born, I will die...

Though I am born, I will disappear...

Akio...! Help Himemiya...! Though I am born, I will disappear...

Akio...! Help Himemiya...!

Akio...! It happens over and over again...

It happens over and over again...

It's so absurd...

Please... help her...! It's so absurd...

It's so absurd...

Help... Himemiya... It's so absurd...

Help... Himemiya... Though I am disconnected...

Though I am disconnected...

You should lie still. Though I am disconnected...

I'll treat your wound later. Though I am disconnected...

Though I am disconnected...

Such a gentle-hearted girl... Though I am disconnected...

You weep for her? Even so, a connection remains...

Even so, a connection remains...

You see that rose-shaped gate there? Even so, a connection remains...

Even so, a connection remains...

Through that door lies eternity. Even so, a connection remains...

Through that door lies eternity. See, I have vanished yet I still sing.

That which shines. The power of miracles. See, I have vanished yet I still sing.

See, I have vanished yet I still sing.

With that power, anything is possible. See, I have vanished yet I still sing.

See, I have vanished yet I still sing.

See, I have vanished yet I still laugh.

It's too much for you. See, I have vanished yet I still laugh.

See, I have vanished yet I still laugh.

You're just a girl, aren't you? See, I have vanished yet I still laugh.

Besides, you don't have that power. See, I have vanished yet I still laugh.

Besides, you don't have that power. See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

With such power, you could do anything. See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

You could free that girl from her destiny. See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

But how the power shall be used... See, I have vanished yet I am petrified.

But how the power shall be used... See, I have vanished yet I still live.

See, I have vanished yet I still live.

...is for me to decide. See, I have vanished yet I still live.

See, I have vanished yet I still live.

I exist.

Come now. Don't look so sad. I exist.

I exist.

You've tried so hard till now. No need to blame yourself. I exist.

You've tried so hard till now. No need to blame yourself. I am here.

I am here.

You've treasured the Rose Seal till now. I am here.

You've treasured the Rose Seal till now.

I exist.

A kiss, to show my appreciation... I exist.

I exist.

I am here.

The only comfort I can offer. I am here.

I exist!

Revolutionary Girl Utena

So, this sword won't work, either.

When will I finally regain the Power of Dios?

Oh well, the Rose Bride still belongs to me.

Someday-

I'm surprised you can stand.

You really intend to try and open this door yourself?

Don't bother.

The prince's sword has been shattered.

The seal...

The seal is unbroken.

You can't do it.

I couldn't, so-

Very well.

Do as you wish.

Himemiya!

HIMEMIYAL!!!

Seeing you is like seeing myself in the past.

I was like you, once.

I thought persistence had merit.

That it was the best way to change the world.

But just that alone can't change anything.

Without power, you're doomed to...

...live life dependent on another.

I've taken enough risks to win the power to change the world.

That's how the world works-

SHUT UP!

Himemiya...

You still don't know...

The only time I've ever been really happy...

...was when I was with you.

W-What's happened...?!

The swords...!

That's...!

STOP!!

Don't open it! Don't you know what'll happen?!

STOP IT!

Stop...!

Himemiya... Himemiya...

Who's there?

I came to save you.

But... Who are you...?

I came all this way to be with you.

So don't be afraid of this world where we can meet.

Himemiya! Himemiyal!

Himemiya!

Himemiya!

Mistress Utena...?

Himemiya... At last, we meet...

Mistress Utena!

Mistress Utena!

Himemiya, give me your hand!

No! Get out of here! The swords...!

Your hand...! Now...!

Himemiya!

No! If you don't hurry and leave this place...!

Himemiya... Hurry! Your hand...!

Please...

Hurry! Give me your hand!

Someday...

Someday, together...

I guess, in the end... I couldn't be a prince...

Forgive me, Himemiya...

For pretending to be a prince...

Forgive me...

I guess Utena isn't home.

I wanted to do my homework with her.

So, what will you do when you graduate?

Go to the high school here, of course.

Uh, no. I meant in the future!

Hmm... Haven't really decided yet.

I'm gonna be an actress!

Oh? You really think you'll make it doing that?

I think she's really serious about this...

Well, we can look forward to our 10 year reunion to find out.

0O-o0-okay...

Well, what about you?

What? Well, what about you?

What?

What? Your future.

Your future.

I'll find a rich guy to marry!

Typical.

Typical.

What's your problem?!

Catching a good man should be a woman's best talent, right?

Oh, listen to you talk!

She found the man of her dreams, recently.

And she used to be the one always crying, "Mistress Utena! Mistress Utena!"

What? You got a problem with that?!

Hey, who was Utena, again?

Huh? Don't you know?

Remember? She always dressed in boys' clothes.

The teachers were always chewing her out.

Ohh... Now I remember.

That girl.

Yeah, I remember her now.

Didn't she get hurt really badly...

...a few months back and had to be hospitalized?

Huh? Hospitalized?

I heard her friend or her boyfriend betrayed her...

...and she transferred to another school.

I heard she got in trouble with the Chairman and got expelled.

Well, it doesn't matter, I guess.

Good timing on that one.

R-Right...

He'll be helping me with my job next semester.

You're taking more courses in your concentration?

I want to catch up on what I missed while I was fooling around.

"Fooling around," huh?

The tea's ready.

Thank you.

We'll be right there.

Next!

Right!

Would you...?

Would you...?

What a lovely day...

WAKABA!

Do you have a birthday present for me, your best friend?!

So little time has passed since it happened,

but they're all forgetting she even existed.

As I thought, she caused no revolution to occur.

Now that she's gone,

she's just one more sad dropout to this world.

I'm rewriting the Code of the Rose Seal.

I'll be counting on you, Anthy.

You really don't know what's happened, do you?

It doesn't matter.

By all means, stay in this cozy coffin of yours...

...and continue to play prince.

But I have to go now.

"Go?" Go where?

She isn't gone at all.

She's merely no longer part of your world.

W-What are you talking about?!

W-Wait!

Anthy!

ANTHY!!!

Goodbye.

This time it's my turn to go.

No matter where you are, I swear I'll find you.

Wait for me... Utena.

Listen, if you ever have a problem, come to me first.

I want us to be friends like that.

And someday, together...

Someday, together...?

Someday, Together, We'll Shine

May this rose reach you. From All the Staff
