SCRIPT (episode 12; 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: I... lost... Touga: Though you pose as a prince, in the end you're just a girl. Touga: Whatever you were expecting, your expectations could not be fulfilled. Touga: Well, I think this is a good chance for you to return to being a normal girl, don't you? Anthy: Take it easy... Tenjou-san Teacher: Tenjou-san? Tenjou Utena-san? Teacher: Tenjou-san? Tenjou Utena-san? Girl: It looks like she's absent today. Title: Perhaps for Friendship's Sake plate: Tenjou Utena Wakaba: Utena... Utena: It's open. Wakaba: Hey hey, why are you staying home from school? Wakaba: Could it be a cold? Wakaba: Let me see, no, no fever, your tonsils aren't swollen... Wakaba: Pulse is normal... My diagnosis is that you're just playing hooky. Wakaba: Oh, by the way, where's Himemiya-san? Utena: Well... Wakaba: Did you have a fight or something? Utena: Something like that. Wakaba: Hmm... Wakaba: So, what was really wrong today? Utena: It's nothing. Wakaba: If it's nothing then why were you absent? Wakaba: Utena? Wakaba: Ah, what is this? It's horrible! Utena: Oh, I just caught it on something. Wakaba: Shall I mend it for you? Utena: Yeah... Utena: But never mind, I've got another uniform. Girl: Hey, hey, that's Tenjou-sempai, isn't it? Girl: That look suits her, too. Girl: I like this look better. Wakaba: It's surprisingly popular. Utena: Yeah. Wakaba: It looks like you like this uniform, too. Utena: Yeah, well, this is normal. Utena: I'm going to wear this from now on. Wakaba: What? Anthy: Good morning. Wakaba: Morning. Utena: Morning, Himemiya. Anthy: Good morning, Tenjou-san. Utena: I must act normal... normal. Wakaba: So you did have a fight! Wakaba: That's not that big a deal. Don't worry about it, it's not like you. Wakaba: Hey, wait a minute, Utena! 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: And so, the Rose Bride and I are engaged. Touga: Any questions? Miki: None. Juri: How did you win? Touga: By my own prowess. Touga: You don't think so? Juri: I wonder about the scenario. Touga: As a prince, I saved this lonely princess, that's all. Juri: A prince, huh? Touga: A story's last scene always has to be of the prince and the princess. Juri: This can't be the last scene already. Miki: She's right. Anthy: Um... Anthy: Um, if we're being a bother, we'll just wait outside. Touga: There's no need for you to wait outside. Touga: I want you to be here. Anthy: All right. Touga: Since you are my bride, Touga: I want you to always be by my side. Wakaba: If you don't want to say anything, that's okay. Wakaba: But even you know that something's strange, don't you? Wakaba: And ignoring stuff that way is strange for you! Wakaba: You're not the usual Utena. Wakaba: I'm starting to get angry. Wakaba: If you think I'll quit just because you're being silent about it- Touga: Pardon me. Touga: I'd heard the rumor, but this is really an eye opening transformation. Touga: That uniform really looks good on you. Touga: So how about it? Won't you have dinner with me this Sunday? Touga: Without the bride... Wakaba: H- hey! Touga: So it's set? Wakaba: Hey, Utena. You'd better turn him down! Touga: Why won't you give me an answer? Wakaba: Don't touch her... Wakaba: Don't touch my Utena-sama! Wakaba: And you! If you don't like it, then say so! Wakaba: I, I'm sorry... Wakaba: But it's your fault, too, just standing there like that. Wakaba: It's because you had a fight or something that Utena's this way, isn't it! Wakaba: That's right, it's your fault- Wakaba: What's this? You can respond after all! Touga: Your friend is very energetic. Touga: Let's talk alone next time. Utena: Himemiya... Utena: Here. Anthy: Thank you, Tenjou-san. Utena: Look... stay out of my business, okay? Wakaba: No way, I won't stop! Utena: You... you don't understand anything. Wakaba: I do understand! Wakaba: I... I'll never give up! Touga: Oh, I see... Touga: What are you saying? That's not true. Touga: I'm always thinking about you. Touga: I've heard that story. Touga: No, I hadn't heard that. Yeah... yeah... Touga: Well, I'm not really doing anything right now. Touga: It's true. Okay. Touga: It can't be helped. I'll be there in a minute. Touga: I'm sorry, Anthy. Wait here for a minute. Anthy: All right. Utena: Wakaba... Utena: Look... Wakaba: Hold it right there. Wakaba: Don't think you can just apologize and that will be the end of it. Wakaba: It's the Student Council President, isn't it? Wakaba: It's his fault you're not yourself, isn't it? Wakaba: It's the Student Council President's fault. I see that. Wakaba: Though I don't know what's really going on... Wakaba: But in the first place, why are you wearing that uniform? Utena: But, this is normal, isn't it? Wakaba: No, it's not normal! Wakaba: I mean, what's not normal is what's normal for Utena, Wakaba: so this normal is not what's normal for Utena. Oh, this is so complicated! Utena: My normal... Utena: this normal... Wakaba: You're just going to be silent again, aren't you? This Utena isn't cool. Wakaba: You're acting like a sissy who's lost his balls! Wakaba: I don't know what it was, Wakaba: but if something was taken from you, then take it back! Wakaba: Take it back! Wakaba: Take it back! Wakaba: Take it back! Wakaba: Your normal self is much cooler. Wakaba: And besides... besides, that uniform doesn't suit you at all! Utena: I'm sorry, Wakaba. Utena: When I hit you in the cafeteria, it must have hurt. Utena: I shouldn't have done that. Utena: I know, it's just like you said. Utena: This really isn't my normal self, is it? Utena: Now I'm going to take back my normal self. Touga: You wanted to talk to me alone? Touga: So, will you have dinner with me this Sunday? Utena: Right now. Touga: You don't want to wait? Utena: At the duel forest! A-ko: I wonder, I wonder, do you know what I wonder? B-Ko: To study normally, to get a normal job, B-Ko: to fall in love normally, to get married normally, B-Ko: to make a normal family... that kind of normal doesn't concern us. A-ko: Up until now, we've done a lot and we're tired. A-ko&B-Ko: So then, shall we return to our normal selves? A-ko&B-Ko: I wonder, I wonder, do you know what I wonder? Juri: Use this. Juri: You'll need it for the decoration of the last scene. Touga: Why have you decided to challenge me again? Utena: It's just that there's something that I want to make more important than you. Touga: I see. Touga: So you've recovered yourself? Touga: But I don't feel that I will lose to you. 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... Touga: ...the power to revolutionize the world! Touga: I think you know that this is no ordinary sword, Touga: but I wonder if you know this way of using it as well. Touga: Rose Bride, cast off your body, and protect this sword! Anthy: Yes, sir. Utena: Himemiya... Utena: Himemiya... Touga: Well? Isn't it beautiful? Touga: It's the power of Dios's Rose Bride. Touga: I wonder, can you win against this power? Utena: I will! I'll win for sure! Touga: Oh, really? Just try it! Anthy: There's no way she can win against Touga-sama. Anthy: It's such a shame. Anthy: It'll be over very soon, I guess. Touga: Do you see the power of this sword? Nanibito: No one has anything to tell Touga: This is the hidden power of the Rose Bride! Touga: Without even knowing such things, you posed as her prince. Nanibito: There is nothing to be told Nanibito: Only in the sealed darkness known as yesterday, Touga: And you still don't understand. Utena: So what about it? Nanibito: Only in the glint of a mere split-second known as now, Anthy: There's something strange about Tenjou-san. Anthy: She could even die... Anthy: Why is she fighting this duel? Nanibito: Only in the darkness waiting for the light known as tomorrow, in the theater. Utena: I may not know anything about Himemiya, Utena: but right now I want to get back what is normal for me! Touga: How pathetic. Nanibito: I can become anyone Anthy: It's over, Tenjou-san... Nanibito: I can become anything Anthy: But I've seen this before. I know... Anthy: I know I have... Nanibito: Only in the sealed darkness known as memory Anthy: This is... this... Anthy: I know, just as it was back then... Nanibito: Only in the glint of a mere split-second of creation Nanibito: Only in the darkness waiting for the light known as tomorrow, in the theater. Touga: Wh- what? Nanibito: Ah, dance! Ancient continental theatre of Nanibito: the actors who wore the mask of Time. Nanibito: Ah, dance! Admiration of you that come from the Nanibito: Milky Way railroad, three of the Seven Ancient Wonders. Nanibito: Like a star, Utena: Give me back... what's normal for me. Nanibito: Like a firefly, Nanibito: Shining during birth, we'll shine and disappear. Nanibito: Shining during birth, we'll shine and disappear. Nanibito: All of us will be born, then disappear. Nanibito: Shining during birth, now shine and disappear! Nanibito: Be born and disappear! I, the jewel Nanibito: Shining during birth, I shone then disappeared Utena: Himemiya... Nanibito: Born, then disappeared, the star that is me. Anthy: I've been waiting for you, Utena-sama. Anthy: I am the Rose Bride, and from today on, I am... Nanibito: The Evening Star, Ego Star Utena: Himemiya, it's okay now. Utena: So, shall we go home? Nanibito: Shine and disappear, Firefly Star! 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. Words: Preview of Next Episode Anthy: This may seem sudden, Utena-sama, Anthy: but a lot of time has passed since we've been engaged. Utena: But I don't acknowledge that engagement or whatever you call it. Anthy: But, Utena-sama, you've already crossed swords seven times in duels because of it. Utena: Seven times? Anthy: Friendship, choice, reason, love, adoration, conviction, and self. Utena: Next time on Shoujo Kakumei Utena: Plotting a Locus Anthy: The Absolute Destiny: Apocalypse. TRANSLATOR'S NOTE ON THE EPISODE Nanibito:
The Evening Star, Ego Star
Nanibito: Shine and disappear, Firefly Star! In the Japanese "Ichiban Boshi wtashiboshi, Hikatte Kiero Hotaruboshi" for these two lines, "Watashiboshi" and "Hotaruboshi" are supposed to be names of stars/planets, although no such things exist.
