Ah, I’ve heard really good things about Princess Tutu and Wandering Son! I’m not really a sports anime person but maybe I’ll watch a trailer for Chihayafuru and see how I feel about it. Thank you!!
I mean, sure, they’re romantic archetypes too, but if we’re being totally literal about that he can’t marry all the girls in the world either.
Yes! It definitely felt designed to paint her in a bad light, which is interesting when the Shadow Chorus has seemed pretty neutral thus far. I might look at their future shadow plays with a more skeptical eye... I hope my liveblog of the second half was fun to read~! I certainly loved doing it!
Yeah, it definitely has the rose theme to it, but I could swear I’ve seen that exact image before... (my screener agrees, but also can’t place it.) Hmm.
Yes! It’s glorious, I loved it! It’s always been Utena’s inherent care and nobility and empathy; she couldn’t just leave that girl! And the ring... it wasn’t to bring Utena to “her Prince”, it was to bring Utena to that place, to Anthy, to where she can bring love and relief to that girl. And the fate of being a prince in this world...
...there’s a part of me that wonders if they’ll manage to avoid that... by leaving “this world”. Breaking the egg.
I’m really excited.
