Girlfriends girlfriendss grown upp

Shiori wearing something a bit fancy cuz she cant go out basic while juri is like a fashion icon next to her (juri is not paying attention on what shiori is talking about at all) at first i drew shiori with longer hair but like her bob is just way to iconic to change so.

Azure, Paler Than the Sky

FINALLY finished this piece, which I started over a year ago. Juri's 2nd duel is one of my favorite moments in Utena. There are so many gut-wrenching shots that I couldn't get out of my head, so I had to draw them all. This'll be available as a print at Lightbox Expo this year!

Locket vs. Stopwatch

Putting aside the practical reason he uses it, do we think Miki’s stopwatch is his equivalent to Juri’s locket? Both represent time passing, specifically their strong fixation on a version of the past.

Unlike the locket, Miki’s watch has no direct ties to Kozue because he’s still trying to find his “shining thing” while Juri’s already kind of resigned herself to yearning for Shiori. Stopwatches are reset every time they’re done recording a (usually short) interval of time passing, so that could possibly symbolize how the ideal of a “shining thing” only lasts for a short amount of time until the rose-tinted glasses break, “resetting” the cycle afterwards in pursuit of a new one.

Juri’s motive for dueling is more pessimistic in nature. Her locket is worn on a chain around the neck, which is a more vulnerable area. It acts as a leash, giving her respective item a sense of both control and strangulation. These don’t apply to the stopwatch since it’s always held in the hands, which is one of the most externally active body parts. It’s light, functional, used openly, and unless it’s a super luxury stopwatch, has less monetary value. This is all in contrast to the locket which is heavier, hidden away, not particularly functional, and probably more expensive.

So while Miki’s stopwatch represents time moving in a cycle that always returns to one moment in time, Juri’s locket represents staying in and being exclusively focused on one moment in time. Both items represent stagnancy in different ways. In the end, neither of them are really moving forward.

I think the real culmination of Juri and Miki’s parallels is Ruka. As much as it hurts to say, his purpose in the story in relation to the fencing club covert-misogyny-towards-girls-with-purple-hair duo is really interesting so I’ll probably make a part 2.

I made them in Tomodachi, Juri called Shiori "girl in my locker" and Shiori nicknamed her "my freak lesbian"

being into revolutionary girl utena is crazy bc you’ll look at a screencap and be like ‘omg… shiori (cut out by juri but yk) is crossing her LEFT hand over her RIGHT hand rather than her RIGHT hand over her LEFT hand like every other girl in the scene, symbolizing her non conforming to society and that she is a lesbian. also the men aren’t crossing their hands which symbolizes they are expected to be like masculine and strong or whatever (also symbolized by their blocky, rectangular uniforms vs the girls’ sailor suits with skirts that have more soft angles) instead of demure and obedient (obedience implied by the hand gesture the girls do). so by still crossing her hands shiori symbolizes that she is still giving in to heteronormativity and patriarchy (as she does by looking at the brown hair guy who i think is right next to her? idk) BUT by doing it in a way different from every other girl there she is also being subtly a lesbian. i wonder if juri is crossing her hands like that too’
