This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)
Men:
Touga
Women:
Shiori and Kozue.
.....apparently I like my men with long hair and my girls with short hair.
..... and apparently I also like Evil. And Slutty.
..... not sure what that says about me. I'm not sure I want to speculate.

In terms of men, I'd have to go for Mikage being at the top. Second would be Saionji - I like how his passion would be authentic.
For some reason, I see Touga and Akio as almost castrated sexually. I know they're sexual creatures so that makes little sense, but what I mean is that they lack any real sort of passion. Screwing them would lack the authenticity that would make it interesting. Akio would be too busy with his little games to have real substance. Touga might be more fun if pressed the right ways, but would default towards more of a narcissistic lovefest. As skilled as they may be technically, I have the idea they would have no real sense of their partners. Thus, I can't help but think of both as being rather mechanical empty promises. They'd know all the right moves but their moans would have all the erotic fervor of the AOL "Hello!" greeting.
Hence why I find them both interesting, but not necessarily sexy.
Mikage's intelligent, but deliciously intense. Saionji is just boiling with aggression. Both of them would be far more satisfactory in different ways than their more playboyish counterparts.

Hottest...I dunno. The only real contenders here are Juri and Kozue I think. Anty has her moments, but that hair when she has it up is just atrocious.
hmm...I'd have to go with Kozue I think. Sluttiness works for me.

Hottest. *pants at images that run through head* So many hot ones...who to choose, who to choose?
I remember I drooled over Touga every time he appeared on screen. Eye-candy. Same with Akio. Uh same with Saionji. Mmm Ruka. Pretty pretty Mikage. Geez, this is a hard one...
My eyes were like permanently glued to Utena's bikeshorts. And Anthy's skirt. Both skirts. And Juri's...er locket. *sigh*
OMG this is hard.
Really...I just don't know. They're all so damn HAWT. I'm not kidding; I'm having trouble deciding. Um. Um. Um.
Okay, I'm gonna make myself cut it down. *grimaces*
Hottest guy: Touga. *shirt flies open* "Do you hear it?" Yessssss. Yes, I do...
Hottest girl: Utena. When she's just beat Touga and is wearing the ripped girl's uniform. Something about innocence mixed with bravery (and possibly to do with ripped clothing...)
Hottest overall: ChuChu when he takes off his tie. JelliKatz knows what she's talking about...
But for real hottest overall: Utena with her big blue eyes and I'm too sexy for my bikeshorts strut. She's hot because she doesn't focus on being hot or necessarily think of herself that way. For me it gives her a smexy edge over all the other yummy candidates (who are all going for broke with their sexuality...or at least are more aware of it than Utena seems to be).

Man. Nobody commented on the fact I just described Akio and Touga as eunuchs. C'mon. Seisei? Anyone? Counter me!
And I agree that Mari was pretty awesome, Shino.

With pleasure, my dear sweet Chairman... but... I don't feel like 'countering' you at all. *grins* In fact, I'm going to quote:

Only because the line "if pressed the right ways" reminded me of your Manya. *snickers* Pressed, huh?

YAAAAAAAAAY! *GLOMPAGE* Bantering!
What? No 'countering'? I guess you're just not the sort to exchange parries, are you, Mr. President? You prefer to go in straight for the fatal thrust. Tsk tsk tsk. When will you ever learn that the lead-up to the final strike is just as important as your victory?
And it reminds you of Manya, does it? Hmmm. Well, pressing all the right ways gets boring eventually. I find wrong a much more delicious adjective anyone. Whenever somebody uses that word to describe what I'm doing, I get a distinct sense of pride. I get inspired.
But I guess you'll find out more about that soon, correct?

No countering, sir. Not today. Not ever. *stifles a foolish smile* Fatal thrust, oh yes. Very much. *unzips pants* It's all about the release, most honourable Chairman, don't you agree? *bends over*

I shouldn't have said that. *snaps fingers* Now you know my weakness. *clicks tongue* It's time to use reverse psychology. *smirks*

From a purely physical perspective, Series!Anthy with her hair down. From an overall perspective, I gotta go with Kozue.
For the guys, Akio. Everyone else comes in a very distant second.

Touga followed by Ruka are my perfect panty dropping favorites. Akio has made it on to my hottie list ...partly due to Gio's hardcore pimping. All of these are for fucking only.

Oh my word yes, that was certainly true re the movie. When I could get over her too-cute eyes I loved every minute of her extremely fuckable self.

From the physical (and artistic) perspective: sexual Anthy and Akio (who is always sexual) make sense being seen as the hottest.
Because they are meant to be the ultimate seducers...of er everybody. In their own special (read "evil") ways.

I agree that Akio and Touga are probably not the most fulfilling sexual partners in a long term sense. But Touga's so pretty to look at. His hair buys him loads and loads of points for me. And I wouldn't recommend a relationship with him, hell no, that would get you in all kinds of trouble. But sexy one night stand? Isn't that his specialty?
Besides I tend to think Touga primarily expresses himself using sex, so I think he is quite sexual and not a eunuch.

But commenting how hot someone is only takes a second, so that doesn't matter.
Oh! And Mrs. Ohtori. I mean, really. Who was hotter than her? Be honest. I'd compare her with a flaming Mikage poptart. Delicious.

Miki
Hands down. I know, I'm supposed to be a lesbian (most of the time, at least) but Miki just makes my mouth water.

Hmm, I won't speak for Akio since he's not a personal favourite; regarding Touga though, I believe he can actually be the most fulfilling sexual partner. Why? He's overconfident that he can bend any lady to his will with just a wink and a beguiling smile. He's also pompous about being sought after by ladies, which I'm sure doesn't only concern his pretty face, but also his misadventures in bed. So, with that said, I think it's the other way around. Any girl, except one that he finds worthy of being chased, won't be the most fulfilling sexual partner for him; but girls who do sleep with him will find him a hard habit to break. And since he uses sex as a tool for power, I like assuming he's very skilled under the sheets; but he's an anime/manga character though, so we will never know.

True, only because a playboy will only give up his freedom when he finally finds the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. So if the girl initiates it first or forces him to a relationship, I think she will only succeed in turning him off.
hollow_rose wrote:

But a sexy one night stand can also be a repeated scenario or a long-term rendezvous with the same lady like a relationship with no strings attached, don't you agree? I would bluntly say that if I was straight, I'd use him for sex and for sex alone (here's to hoping he wouldn't give me AIDS or STD of course). But my Juri side would definitely scorn me for life afterwards. *laughs*

*takes out tattooing needle and scribbles PROPERTY OF JELLI on the exposed flesh*
I have no doubt that Touga is very skilled. He studies sexuality as a power method. But what makes him an appealing sexual partner also makes him unattractive. Precisely that in most scenarios he would see his lovemaking as an extension of his skills. Because of his love for power, it would be carefully orchestrated. I don't think he has all those fangirls because he's untalented. But in terms of personal preference, I wouldn't get my full enjoyment from it, which is as much mental as it is anything else.
In terms of ladies, I have to agree with Juri. I'm drawn to melancholy bitter people. I actually don't find Kozue extremely physically attractive (her hair really annoys me), but her wildnes is appealing. Although I don't know about sex, Wakaba would be tremendously fun to date. She'd probably laugh at my jokes. And that means we'd automatically be good friends.

For me the hottest is Juri. I gotta admit, I fell in love with Juri since episode seven. I really, really wanted her to kiss Utena... Not to mention the shower scenes and the very moment she stopped fighting in her second duel... That gave me the chills... God... sicky as it sounds...

First time I watched the series, I was convinced he was a girl. Even to the point of wondering if he was a crossdresser when they started using male pronouns.
Goddamit, Miki. Why must your VA be a woman?

I do not have that excuse. I've only really watched the dubbed series and he has this sweet low voice in the dubbed series. This is the only series where I actually prefer the dubbed to the subbed, largely because my understanding of their characters is really attached to their dubbed voices.

Yes, that scene got me too. It had a lot of tension in it. Did you know, I'm reading a fanfic that includes in a subplot a relationship between Miki, Juri and a female OC. Basically, Juri and the OC are in a relationship, and Miki is the best friend of both of them, and they eventually convince him to join them in bed. It makes sense too in the context of the fic. Juri basically says that Miki is the only guy she has ever loved.
Mind you, this author loves his 3somes. Utena and Anthy and a male OC end up in a relationship together. Oh yeah, and Miki spent some time before getting together with Juri and her girlfriend dating a female OC who is a marsupial alien girl, and R. Dorothy Wayneright from Big-O at the same time.
I have never read a massive crossover that included so many series in it. Its breathtaking.
