Senshineko - Cyber-Punk
Just last night...errr morning
I should say...I had a dream that was basically the rundown of the
series but in an even more deeply symbolic cyber-punk sort of motif.
Utena was trying to free Anthy not really make her a normal girl.
I didn't see any of the action that led up to the end though I do
remember a strange "back to normal" moment at a school.
In the end Anthy actually freed herself and had to leave because
in truth she was some enlightened higher plane being. She sprouted
black wings on her back but those of a tengu instead of an angel
or a crow. As she was fading in a bit scatter like right out of
digi-mon she said something like, "We were brought down by
our despair," and something about Utena helping her return
to what she was. I'm assuming when she said 'we' I'm thinking her
and Akio though there were probably more than that. Akio was definatly
not a prince of sort in the end because he was the "big threat"
to be stopped. I don't recall anyone else from the series being
there but who knows I only remember the end. |
