Que Dios me conceda el honor de estar enamorado de alguien que no pueda pasar ni un solo día sin hablarme.
Denuczi
“Deja que las cosas se rompan, deja de esforzarte por mantenerlas pegadas.
Deja que la gente se enoje.
Deja que te critiquen, su reacción no es tu problema.
Deja que todo se derrumbe, y no te preocupes por el después.
¿A dónde iré? ¿Qué voy a hacer?
Lo que está destinado a irse se irá de todos modos. Lo que tenga que quedarse, seguirá siendo.
Lo que se va siempre deja espacio para algo nuevo, esa es la ley universal.
Y nunca pienses que ya no hay nada bueno para ti, solo que tienes que dejar de contener lo que hay que dejar ir.”
🎬 "Comer, rezar, amar" (2010)
nada que decir gente
La vista divina de Dios:
Let's continue the analysis and talk about utenas house. This house is a real house in tokyo.
This house belonged to Yukio Mishima, a famous japanese novelist post World war 2, who almost got a nobel prize and later committed suicide after he failed a REVOLUTION to return the full Power of the Monarchy. (So in a way, he wanted to restore the powers of the prince.😅) Mishima was also famously gay but at first tried to hide his homoeroticism as an appreciation of Heroic masculinity. He detailed this aspects of his life in his autobiography Confessions of a mask. According to some Bonus Material, that book was an influence on Arisugawa Juris character. (Who in the series hides her lesbian Feelings for Shiori.) Interestingly, the book also Talks about Jeanne Dark and because Juri is basically Utenas variant of Lady oscar,, there is a small connection here as well.
Mishima also wrote his magnum opus, the Sea of Tranquility tetralogy. This book has themes if cycles, illusions, princes and revolutions (in multiple ways to interpret.)
One of the biggest metaphors of the book is the idea of the prince as an amoral figure. (Inspired by Macchiavellis book the prince, where the title, the prince, is also a symbol for Lucifer. And in Utena, akio is connected to the morning star. Because the morning star appears close to the sunrise, in ancient times, he was called the light bringer, e.g. Lucifer.)
This series of four books describes history as a cycle/revolution of four ages with each book depicting one age and one season of the year.
The book was influenced by Buddhism. The protagonist in the book, Honda, wants to save his friend Kiyosaki who is trapped in a cycle of revolution, rebirth and suffering.
In the first book, Kiyosakis suffering and death come from him loving a girl named Satako, but Satako being forced to marry a psychopathic, abusive prince. The first one already has themes which remind on Utena.😅
The second book depicts Kiyosaki as a revolutionary who wants to restore the glory of the Monarchy because he fears the influence of megacapitalists on Japanese society and morals. Honda wants to save him from his death.
In the end, its stated that Growing societal nihilism and apathy destroyed the possibility of heroism in society and this is why his Revolution failed. As I already said, Utenas opening Rinbu Revolution touches on exactly these themes.
The third book has one plot element certain parts of my Readers will find interesting and maybe funny. (Especially the crowds with a certain blue and pink flag on their page.😅)
Because in this book, Honda travels to Thailand, meets Kiyosaki again and sees he is now a woman (!).
He was reborn as a Princess in Thailand and later, they start a sexual relationship. Later, she dies due to being bitten by a snake and her death was foretold in visions.
In the last book, Kiyosakis "final reincarnation" now becomes a villain and an abuser and deceiver lead by hatred, lust for revenge and lust for Power, who frequently manipulates and harms women. He is also called a fallen prince and a fallen angel. (This final Reinkarnation strongly reminds on Akio. But it also reminds on Anthys brief betrayal in the end of the series.)
Interestingly, Honda realizes that him trying to save Kiyosaki and his reincarnations was a mistake and he was unable to save him. And while in past, he thought he acted out of a divine mission, he now realizes that this was delusional and selfish desire clad in romantic stories of Heroism. Just like how in Utena , she and many other characters have the same realization.
In many of mishimas books, temples and other places become quasi mythical, dreamlike, heavenly places of desire. This reminds on Dios castle.
