SCRIPT (episode 19; version 1.0; 11/23/1998) 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. Wakaba: I've waited to meet you for a very long time. Wakaba: I was born to meet you. Wakaba: Isn't that right, my prince? Utena: You look happy. Did something good happen to you? Wakaba: Yep, something good happened! Wakaba: Ta-da! Wakaba: Making my dearest, dearest Utena-sama a pretty lunch like this, I'm so happy! Utena: You sure are an ordinary girl, Wakaba. Utena: I'm sure you'll make a good bride. Wakaba: You bet! You bet! Utena: This octopus-shaped wiener is a superb piece of work! Wakaba: Yep! "Aaah..." Utena: Aaah... Tatsuya: Uh... Tatsuya: Uhm, nice to meet you. My name is Kazami Tatsuya, of Class D, Grade 8. Utena: Oh. Tatsuya: Tenjou-san, please read this. Letter: Tenjou Utena-sama Wakaba: Kazami Tatsuya of Class D, Grade 8. Utena: Wakaba! Sorry, don't feel bad. Tatsuya: No. Wakaba: Kazami Tatsuya? Utena: But, to me, stuff like this... Wakaba: Wah, Kazami Tatsuya! Tatsuya: Yes? Wakaba: I remember! You're Prince Onion, aren't you? Utena: P- Prince Onion? Wakaba: Hey, it's me! I was with you in elementary school. Shinohara Wakaba! Tatsuya: Um, Wakaba? Wakaba: It's been a long time! Wakaba: I never knew you were in this academy, too. Wakaba: I thought this name looked really familiar to me. Wakaba: I thought, "Could it be deja vu?" But no wonder it looked so familiar. Title: Song of the Fallen Kingdom Utena: So, what is Prince Onion? Wakaba: Why do you look so sulky? Utena: I missed my chance to return that letter! Wakaba: I'll give it back for you. Utena: I can't let you do that. Utena: Proper etiquette, you know. I'll return it. Wakaba: It's all right. That guy is no one that you should worry about, Utena. Wakaba: But, be careful. He only talks{\i0} nice. Utena: That's an awful thing to say. Wakaba: He's still what he was. He's always chasing tail, flirting with the girls. Utena: Oh, come on. Wakaba: That kind of guy lowers the value of men all over the world. Utena: Now isn't that taking it a bit far? Wakaba: He's a cruel man. Utena: Wakaba? Wakaba: He's a cruel bastard. Wakaba: Because... he transferred out without telling me. Utena: Wakaba... Wakaba: He was once my prince, that guy... boys: Nya nya, onion head! Wakaba: Shut up, pumpkin and white radish! Wakaba: I have Prince Onion! Tatsuya: Huh? Wakaba: I have Prince Onion! Tatsuya: Huh? Wakaba: I have Prince Onion! Tatsuya: Huh? Wakaba: I have Prince Onion! Tatsuya: Huh? Wakaba: Well, it's an old story, you know. Utena: Prince, huh? Wakaba: What is it? Utena: Actually, you feel it's fate or something, don't you? Wakaba: That's not it. girl: Wakaba! Wakaba: She told me to return this. Wakaba: To begin with, Utena and Tatsuya are not a good match. Tatsuya: It's 'cause you said something weird. Wakaba: What're you talking about? Tatsuya: 'Cause you told Tenjou-san about weird stuff like Prince Pumpkin or something. Wakaba: It's Prince Onion. Tatsuya: It doesn't matter whichever it is. Wakaba: It does matter! Wakaba: It does matter. It's important to me. Wakaba: It might be something you don't care about, Tatsuya, Wakaba: ...but to me, it's a precious memory, so... Tatsuya: Anyway, can you introduce me to her once more? Wakaba: All right. Wakaba: If you insist, I'll introduce you, Wakaba: ...but that's all. Nanami: Micky, could I ask you to play the piano again at tomorrow's party? Miki: Sure. Juri: Speaking of which, Juri: ...aren't you always playing the piano with just one person in mind, Miki? Miki: Juri-san, please don't tease me. Nanami: Humph, honestly... Nanami: Stop playing while thinking about her{\i0} already. Miki: It must be nice to be you, Nanami-san. Miki: You can satisfy your desire with a grade schooler. Nanami: Shut up! That's just play, P-L-A-Y. Nanami: My feelings of true love are for only one man. Nanami: Therefore, the form of love is eternal. Nanami: Onii-sama... Miki: You mean all but your brother are worthless, don't you? Juri: So there's only one feeling of true love, hmm? Juri: If you could easily switch whom you love, you two would be able to feel more relief. Juri: I guess that goes for me too. Utena: I'm still wondering if he is the prince that Wakaba said she can't get her mind off. Akio: What're we talking about? Utena: Well, my friend happened to reunite with her childhood friend. Utena: See, they're not being honest about it, Utena: ...and I'm wondering if the prince she's waiting for isn't really him. Akio: That's a lovely story. Utena: Oh, I'm sorry, I'm always the one to talk here. Akio: I don't mind. Akio: But, Tenjou-san... Akio: The inside of a person's heart is like something veiled in silk. Ahh... Akio: It seems like you could see through, but in fact you can't. Akio: The prince people hold inside their heart... Akio: ...is surely something that others wouldn't understand. Akio: But, I envy young people who are in love. Akio: I hope you, too, will find your own prince soon, Anthy. Anthy: Yes, Onii-sama. Wakaba: Get it, Utena? You just need to have some tea and make do somehow. Utena: Somehow...? Wakaba: Yep. Utena: Have some tea and make do? Wakaba: Yep. Utena: I got it. I'll do it for a certain someone's sake, too. Wakaba: What's that supposed to mean? Tatsuya: Hello! Sorry I'm late. Wakaba: You're late! How long were you going to make us wait? Tatsuya: Sorry, sorry. Tatsuya: Uhm, who's this? Utena: Oh, I'll introduce you. This is Himemiya Anthy, my roommate. Tatsuya: Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Kazami Tatsuya. Anthy: Hello, I'm Himemiya. Anthy: And this is Chuchu. Tatsuya: Hello, I'm Kazami Tatsuya. Pleased to meet you, Chuchu. Wakaba: What's the use of making eyes at a monkey? Tatsuya: What's that supposed to mean? Wakaba: That part of you hasn't changed one bit. Tatsuya: Stop talking like that in front of everyone. Wakaba: But it's true, isn't it? You're always cozying up to girls. Tatsuya: That wasn't what I... Tatsuya: What about you, Wakaba? Why are you accusing me like that? It's strange. Wakaba: I... Wakaba: Never mind, it's nothing. Tatsuya: What is it? Wakaba: It's nothing. Tatsuya: If you want to say something, then say it! Wakaba: I'm telling you, it's nothing! Wakaba: Come on, you have something to say to Utena, don't you? Tatsuya: Yeah. Tatsuya: Say, Tenjou-san, are you seeing someone at the moment? Utena: I'm not dating anyone right now, Utena: ...but I'm still thinking about the prince that gave me this ring long ago. Tatsuya: Prince, huh? That's kind of nice and dreamy. Utena: Speaking of which, it seems the princess near you now has a prince she can't stop thinking of. Utena: Right, Wakaba? Wakaba: Wh- What are you talking about, Utena? Utena: Prince Onion is nice and dreamy, right? Wakaba: No way! Wakaba: My prince is... Wakaba: My prince is... Wakaba: He is... Utena: Why don't you become a little more honest, Wakaba? Wakaba: That's not it{\i0}! Ooh, Utena, you're just picking on me! Tatsuya: A- Wakaba! Tatsuya: Um, Tenjou-san? Utena: What? Tatsuya: What did you mean when you said "Wakaba's prince" just now? Utena: She's pretending to be strong, but she is a girl after all. Utena: It might be that she can't forget about the prince she met so long ago. Wakaba: I have Prince Onion on my side! Wakaba: To me, it's a precious memory, so... Tatsuya: Tenjou-san... Utena: What? Tatsuya: Actually, when I transferred to this academy, I knew Wakaba was here. Tatsuya: She hasn't changed at all since the days I knew her. Tatsuya: You were always right next to her all the time she looked happy, Tenjou-san. Tatsuya: If I could be with you... Utena: Then you could be with Wakaba, too? Utena: So that's why you sent me a love-letter, isn't it? Tatsuya: I'm sorry. That girl's so shy. Tatsuya: I thought she was only calling me Prince Onion to make fun of me, Tatsuya: ...but I was wrong, wasn't I? Utena: Well, I don't know any further than that. Utena: The prince people hold inside their heart... Utena: ...is surely something that others wouldn't understand. Utena: But I think it's worth it to confess. Tatsuya: Thank you very much! Utena: But did I do the right thing? Anthy: About what? Utena: About Tatsuya-kun and Wakaba. Anthy: It's alright. Romance is like, what will happen will happen. Utena: That's true, but... card: Utena, you meanie!! Utena: Huh? Oh, great... C-ko: Extra! Extra! Extra! C-ko: Step right up, step right up! Fresh tires for sale! C-ko: Today, tire shop's sale! C-ko: I'll take one. C-ko: But mister, what is a tire shop? C-ko: How good of you to ask, ma'am! C-ko: Fish shops... C-ko: ...sell fish. C-ko: Bread shops... C-ko: ...sell bread. C-ko: And we're a tire shop, so we sell tires. C-ko: Telling good tires from bad ones takes quite a bit of experience. C-ko: You can't easily tell if it tastes good or bad just by looking. C-ko: Well, please give me one of those tires. C-ko: Thank you! C-ko: Have your husband eat something invigorating! C-ko: Oh, come on... tire-shop owner... C-ko: Now, how will I cook this tire up for dinner, I wonder? Utena: Is that edible? Tatsuya: Wakaba... Tatsuya: Do you have a minute? Wakaba: Now what? You sound serious. Wakaba: What's wrong? Tatsuya: Wakaba, there's someone you like now, isn't there? Wakaba: What? Tatsuya: You're in love with your prince now, aren't you? Tatsuya: Look, you should be honest at important times. Wakaba: I'm always honest. Tatsuya: Prince, huh? Wakaba: What? Tatsuya: Well, I was just thinking you might want to know your prince's feelings, too. Wakaba: My prince's feelings? Tatsuya: But, just as you finally realized your own feelings, Tatsuya: ...maybe you have already realized your prince's feelings, too. Wakaba: Can a childhood friend find even that out? Tatsuya: Of course. Wakaba: You're right. Wakaba: You're right. I've finally realized that I really was in love with that prince. Wakaba: And maybe, with the grace of God, that prince will turn around and look at me. Wakaba: Maybe...maybe finally I can become happy too. Tatsuya: Well, then, you do know that. Tatsuya: You can become happy. Wakaba: Tatsuya... Tatsuya: Wakaba... Wakaba: But, will you keep this a secret from everyone? Tatsuya: Yeah, if it's going to embarrass you, let's keep it a secret from everyone. Wakaba: I still can't believe it, but I finally found happiness, didn't I? Tatsuya: Yeah. Wakaba: You, too, find somebody quickly and become happy. Tatsuya: Yeah, I'll find somebody quickly, too... Huh? Wakaba: Well, that's it. I've got to go now. I shouldn't make him wait too long. Tatsuya: Make who? Wakaba: My prince, of course. Wakaba: See you! Tatsuya: By "my prince," she means... Tatsuya: Uh, excuse me? Is anyone here? hand: INTERVIEW CHAMBER Tatsuya: Excuse me? Tatsuya: Isn't anyone here? Tatsuya: Uh, I haven't got an appointment, Tatsuya: ...but would it be okay? door: OCCUPIED Tatsuya: Sorry for just barging in here. I'm Kazami Tatsuya, in the 8th grade, Class D. Mikage: Then, please begin. Tatsuya: Well, I heard the rumor. Tatsuya: That you can have a consultation here when you're in trouble. Tatsuya: There was a girl I had been watching for a long time. Tatsuya: She was a princess to me alone. Tatsuya: But, she left me to see another man. Tatsuya: I'm sure she is being deceived. Tatsuya: Oh, and she was such an innocent girl... Tatsuya: I'm sure he'll do all sorts of bad things to her, like... or... or even... Tatsuya: But it's okay. No matter how much of her purity she'll lose, she'll come back to me. Tatsuya: Because of my love for her. Tatsuya: Yes, 'cause in the end, love always wins. Tatsuya: I would be able to make you happy. I would be able to give away anything for your sake. Tatsuya: I would... I would... Tatsuya: Why can't it be me?! Mikage: You're really a good person, aren't you? Mikage: So, there's no path for you to take here. Go home. Mikage: This isn't a place for someone like you. Wakaba: I'm home. Saionji: Welcome back.

Wakaba: Get it, Utena? You just need to
have some tea and make do somehow. Utena: Somehow...? Wakaba: Yep. Utena: Have some tea and make do? The original Japanese contains a visual pun. "ocha wo nigosu" which literally means "to make tea muddy" is an idiom meaning "make shift for the present". In this scene, Utena is slurping the tea. |
