I'm rewatching utena and I noticed one thing in episode 9. While Utena and Saionji are arguing towards the beginning of the episode, Saionji saying that next time they duel he will beat her and win Anthy back, Chu-chu is seen fighting with a frog. Now, Chu-chu is supposed to be a monkey I believe, though due to his size one could argue he looks a tiny bit like a mouse. And this is important because of an epic that was written, supposedly, as a parody of the Iliad during the classical period. This parody, the Batrachomyomachia, is the tale of a one-day war between mice and frogs, and the term is used nowadays to refer to "a useless, trivial fight". And what's more trivial, useless, hopeless, than fighting for the Rose Bride? What fight is more devoid of consequence and meaning, than one that exists within a cycle of abuse in which everyone, whether loser or winner, is harmed?

If you enjoyed this book you should read every other book in the world for extra textual context. All things are intricately related to one another.
