SCRIPT (episode 11; version 1.0; 9/9/1998) OP:
Heroically, with bravery
OP: I'll go on with my life, OP: just a long, long time. OP: But if the two of us should get split up OP: by whatever means, OP: let go of me, OP: Take my revolution. Title: Utena ~ La Fillette Revolutionnaire OP: In the sunny garden, we held each other's hands, OP: drew close together and soothed each other with the words, OP: "Neither of us will ever fall in love again." OP: Everytime OP: Into this photograph of us OP: smiling cheek to cheek, OP: I took a bit of loneliness, OP: and crammed it inside. OP: Revolution! OP: Even in my dreams, even through my tears, OP: even though I'm being hurt, OP: reality is approaching now, frantically. OP: What I want now is to find out OP: just where I belong, OP: and my self-worth, up through today. OP: Heroically, I'll throw away OP: my clothes 'til I'm nude, OP: like the roses dancing all around me, whirling free. OP: But if the two of us should get split up OP: by whatever means, OP: I swear to you, I will change the world. Utena: It feels so good to have lunch outdoors for a change. Wakaba: You bet! You bet! Wakaba: I'm so smart to suggest it, aren't I? Wakaba: Here here here... Wakaba: See, I made some for you too. Utena: But I... Wakaba: No way. Such a tasteless lunch would be boring, right? Wakaba: Instead of that, have some of this lunch full of my love for Utena-sama! Wakaba: Look... Look! LOOK! Utena: Yeah... Wakaba: I'm so glad! Utena: Cut it out already! Title: Graceful and Ruthless; The One Who Picks the Flower Wakaba: Now, don't be too surprised! Tah-dah! Wakaba: Basically these are prepackaged food, but the forms look super-pretty, don't they? Utena: Well, love or not, there's no doubt they look delicious. Utena: Thanks, Wakaba. Wakaba: All right! Wakaba: Now that makes my cooking effort pay off! Wakaba: That's just like you, Wakaba-chan! Well done! Anthy: Utena-sama... Anthy: Would you take a look at my lunch, too? Utena: If it isn't shaved ice again... Anthy: Here. Utena: Wow, that's quite a lot. Wakaba: Impressive... Anthy: Please, have some. Utena: The first layer is... Wakaba: Takoyaki... aren't they? Anthy: Yes. Utena: And the second layer... Wakaba: Yakisoba... okay, okay... Anthy: It looks delicious, doesn't it? Utena: The third layer is... Anthy: Oh, my! Utena: Well, what do you know! Pretty normal, although it's like food from a temple festival or something. Wakaba: "Pretty normal?" What kind of lunch were you expecting? Utena: Uh, let's talk about it after we eat. Miki: What do you see? Touga: Oh, it's you. Touga: I see a lonely princess. Miki: Tenjou-sempai, and Himemiya-san, too. Looks like they're enjoying themselves. Miki: But by a lonely princess, you mean...? Touga: You can't see her. Touga: No one can see her but me. Miki: You mean it's an illusion? Touga: Oh, she really exists. Touga: She's visible and tangible. Wakaba: Bravo! Bravo! Wakaba: What're you looking at, Utena? Utena: Oh, nothing. Wakaba: A-ha, it's the Prince of the Student Council. Utena: "Prince?" Utena: That time, he definitely said... Touga: "Wasn't your prince someone like me?" Utena: If that's true, then is Mr. President my prince from back then? Anthy: Bravo! Bravo! Wakaba: Are you alright, eating like that? Touga: If the egg's shell does not break, the chick will die without being born. Touga: We are the chick; the egg is the world. Touga: If the world's shell does not break, we will die without being born. Touga: Break the world's shell! Touga,Juri: For the sake of revolutionizing the world! Touga: As you may already know, Touga: Nanami lost the Duel to Tenjou Utena. Touga: I'm ashamed to say, the difference in their abilities was made clear. Juri: As it was from the start. Juri: Nanami-kun fought only to lose... Juri: ...just as Student Council President Kiryuu Touga had planned, right? Touga: It's regrettable that you see it that way. Touga: Since I always try to treat Nanami with affection... Miki: Like a pet cat? Miki: 6.12 seconds... Touga: It was her own fault that Nanami lost the Duel. Touga: Whether it was someone's plot or not, Touga: joining into it was her own responsibility. Juri: How cold. Touga: There can be times when the depths of one's feelings can lead them astray. Touga: The greater those feelings, the further they are led. Touga: "Wasn't your prince someone like me?" Touga: Well and truly beautiful... Touga: And this breed is said to be very difficult. Anthy: Thank you very much. Touga: By the way, you all were having lunch outside today, weren't you? Anthy: Yes. You saw, didn't you? Anthy: With Utena-sama, Wakaba-san, and Chuchu. Anthy: It was a lot of fun. Touga: That's excellent. Anthy: Wakaba-san's lunch was so delicious. Anthy: I want to make a dish like that. Touga: The Rose Bride, cooking? Touga: You shouldn't do such things as cooking. Touga: You should only take care of the roses here. Touga: This birdcage is your territory. Touga: And you are the beautiful little bird which lives here. Touga: I want to possess this birdcage, and everything in it. Touga: I would never take you out from here, ever... Touga: Forever... Utena: Stay away from Himemiya! Touga: Hi, I'm glad you've come. Utena: You don't see Himemiya as anything but the Rose Bride either, do you? Touga: Is that wrong? Utena: It is wrong! Utena: Cut it out with that "Rose Bride" or "possession" nonsense. Utena: That girl is an ordinary girl named Himemiya Anthy! Touga: Is she? Touga: Is it true that you're an ordinary girl? Utena: You don't like it, do you? Utena: Being the Rose Bride or whatever... Anthy: I... Utena: Go ahead, speak your mind! Anthy: My mind... Utena: Yeah! Utena: You hate being treated as the Rose Bride, right? Utena: Tell him clearly! Anthy: All right. Anthy: I hate being treated as the Rose Bride. Utena: What's so funny? Touga: Nothing. Pardon me. Touga: This girl is certainly your bride, isn't she? Touga: Here. Utena: What do you want with Himemiya? Touga: With her, nothing. Touga: I thought I could get to see you here. Touga: I was waiting for you. Utena: What do you want with me? Touga: As your prince, I have something important to tell you. Utena: Prince? Utena: Then... Utena: Then Mr. President is my prince after all...? Touga: You were crying then... Touga: ...shedding so many sparkling tears. Utena: Yes, Utena: I was crying then. Utena: Are you really the one who saved me that time? Touga: Do you want proof? Utena: Proof? Touga: Now, didn't it feel something like this? Utena: He's going to kiss me... Utena: But then, it... Utena: ...felt like this. Touga: Excuse me. It was imprudent... Touga: Two Duelists, in front of the Rose Bride... Touga: Well, then... Touga: that something important I had to tell you... Touga: Tenjou Utena, I challenge you to a Duel. Utena: I had... Utena: completely forgotten that Kiryuu Touga was a Duelist. Utena: But... Utena: that Prince who saved me when I was little... Utena: I came to this school because I wanted to meet him. Utena: To think that one and only tie is going to make me fight my prince... Utena: If it weren't for this ring... Anthy: Utena-sama, Anthy: the tea is ready. Anthy: Utena-sama, how did you like my lunch? Utena: Ah, it was delicious. Thanks. Wakaba said it was pretty good, too. Anthy: I'm glad. Anthy: And Wakaba-san is a fun person, isn't she? Utena: Yeah, she's a good friend who makes me feel happy whenever she's with me. Utena: Why don't you become her friend, too, Himemiya? Utena: Oh, yeah, you have Chuchu. Utena: I guess Chuchu's as much fun as ten people for you, then? Anthy: I... Anthy: I wish I could become her friend, too. Utena: You can! I know you can! Utena: Open your heart and talk to people, and anybody would accept you, I'm sure. Anthy: Open my heart? Utena: Right. You'll be fine. I'll help you. Anthy: Yes. Utena: That's right, I've got to protect Himemiya. Utena: If anyone can return her to being a normal girl, it's me. Utena: I can't let anyone else have her. Utena: Not even my own prince. A-ko: Now, my son, stand with this apple on your head! B-ko: Yes, Pop, but... B-ko: Well done, Pop! B-ko: But it was the 37919th already. B-ko: How long do we have to do this for? A-ko: Until the doctor stops us, I suppose... A-ko: Hold your tongue, my son, and stand with this apple on your head! B-ko: Yes, Pop! B-ko: But why wouldn't the lord release us after we succeeded once? A-ko: Don't make me think! B-ko: Misery! O Misery! What fate is in store for the Tells, as he has become a shooting machine? A-ko: I wonder, I wonder... do you know what I wonder? B-ko: Aim a bit higher, Pop... A-ko: Oops.

Utena: Are you sure we must fight? Touga: Well, sorry to cut into your busy schedule, but... Touga: Shall we begin, Tenjou-kun? Anthy: O roses of the noble castle, Anthy: O Power of Dios that slumbers within me, Anthy: Harken unto thy master and reveal to us... Utena: ...the power to revolutionize the world! Touga: Give no quarter. Underestimating your opponent in a duel could prove fatal. Touga: With that in mind, advance! Fuuin: Unwritten seal spell Fuuin: iron mask of misfortune Touga: Tenjou Utena is merely an amateur at swordfighting. Touga: However, the problem is when the Power of Dios appears... Fuuin: blue skies - sea - then the wind blows Touga: Now, Tenjou Utena... Utena: I can't lose... Fuuin: grassland - rabbits - even the river flows Touga: Show me the Power of Dios! Fuuin: Time, the era does not change. Fuuin: Time, the era is something existent and nonexistent. Fuuin: Man is described by the blood of "make-believe" Fuuin: Man also drowns in a flood of "lessons" Fuuin: All the word handed down is that a man is a man. Fuuin: Without metamorphosis! Fuuin: In the daytime I can see it, in the nighttime I cannot. Touga: "Wasn't your prince... Fuuin: In the nighttime I can see it, in the daytime I cannot. Touga: ...a guy like me?" Fuuin: Anagram Utena: Prince... Fuuin: Those puzzle words, those masks of words Fuuin: The source of which is... Fuuin: dich! Touga: It's better this way, isn't it? Touga: You needn't involve yourself in such meaningless duels any more, as you wished. Touga: Shall we go, Anthy? Utena: Wait. Utena: Don't take Himemiya. Utena: Himemiya wants to go back to being a normal girl. Utena: I can't be separated from her! Utena: I don't want the power to revolutionize the world, but Himemiya needs me! Touga: You don't understand anything. Utena: It's true! Himemiya told me she wanted friends! Utena: Without me, she'll be all alone again! Touga: Anthy... Anthy: Yes. Touga: You are happy as the Rose Bride, aren't you? Anthy: I... Anthy: ...am happy as the Rose Bride. Touga: You don't want any friends. You like being alone, right? Anthy: Yes, I like being by myself. Touga: Tenjou-kun, this is how it is. Touga: Himemiya Anthy is the Bride of the victor of the Duel. Touga: While she was engaged to you, the Code required her to obey you. Utena: You're lying... Touga: The Rose Bride answered the wishes of her master. Touga: To make her an ordinary girl was merely what you wished. Utena: It's a lie... Touga: Now that you have lost the Duel, the connection between you two is severed. Touga: Forget all about her, and about this Duel. Utena: It's a lie! Utena: It's a lie, right, Himemiya? Tell me the truth! Utena: Didn't you tell me that you hated being the Rose Bride...that you wanted to make friends?! Touga: Anthy, bid your farewell. Anthy: Take it easy, Tenjou-san. Utena: ...it's a lie... Utena: It's a lie... Utena: It's a lie! Utena: IT'S A LIE!! ED: Missing truth and forever ED: Kissing love and true your heart ED: Embrace me with your true arms ED: The key to open up tomorrow is reality ED: I want to keep on destroying lies. ED: Even if we keep on talking, ED: you still won't ever see. ED: Excuses really suit adults ED: who hang on to old stories. ED: Because unchosen angels ED: have no need for wings. ED: Missing truth and forever, ED: Kissing love and true your heart, ED: I will like tomorrow's new me. ED: At least I believe so; I want to believe it, ED: so I want to keep lies hating me. text: Preview of Next Episode Utena: I lost... Anthy: Good morning, Tenjou-san. Utena: Himemiya... Anthy: What's the matter, Tenjou-san? Utena: Himemiya, how can you... Anthy: I am the Rose Bride. Being like this is normal for me. Utena: Just wait, Himemiya. Starting now, I'm going to win back the real you - and the real me - once more. Utena: Next time on Shoujo Kakumei Utena: Perhaps for Friendship's Sake Anthy: The Absolute Destiny: Apocalypse. TRANSLATOR'S NOTE ON THE EPISODE
Wakaba: Basically these are prepackaged
food, but the forms look super-pretty, don't they? In Japanese, Wakaba says "retort food." "Retort" is a vacuumed plastic, aluminum package of some special kind of technology. In Japan, if you go to a glossary store or convenience store, you can find a lot of ready-to-eat prepackaged foods in "retort packages". Wakaba: Takoyaki... aren't they? Wakaba: Yakisoba... okay, okay...
Utena: Well, what do you know! Pretty
normal, although it's like food from a temple festival or something.
Anthy:
Take it easy, Tenjou-san. Fuuin:
