SCRIPT (episode 34; version 1.0; 12/20/1999) Akio:
I just found a comet.
Akio: A new star that no one knows about yet. Akio: But I won't tell anybody... Akio: ...or give it a name. Strange, isn't it? Akio: I feel like when I discover a new star I make it mine. Akio: But a star is a star. It belongs to nobody. Akio: It belongs to nobody. Anthy: Good night, brother. Akio: Do you still torment me? Utena: I'll become a Prince. text: Seal of the Rose Utena: You know, I'm really not good with that stuff... shadow: I'm sure that a new world would open up for our Theater Club if you joined us. shadow: You bet it'd open up. Fans of yours would be joining in droves! Utena: But... shadow: Don't worry. Our judgement never fails. shadow: Never ever. Utena: But I can't act. I'm no good on stage. shadow: That's no big deal. shadow: Flowers will bud just by you standing onstage. shadow: You bet they will. A star is born! shadow: Anyways, please come see our play after school tomorrow. shadow: It's such an ultra-sad story! Utena: Huh? ticket: Theatrical Troupe Shadow Play Kashira Presents: The Tale of the Rose: 34th Exhibition boy: Tenjou, we're counting on you for next week's match. Utena: Y-yeah, okay. Wakaba: It must be tough being so popular. Utena: Huh? Wakaba: So, did you pick? Utena: Oh, yeah... Wakaba: Mark the ones you like. I can get someone in the Photo Club to make copies. Utena: There aren't any with Himemiya in them. Wakaba: Well, she's so unsociable. Wakaba: She almost never go to events or anything. Wakaba: I didn't know our school had a Theater Club. Akio: It's been a long time since I've photographed something besides stars. Akio: But why'd you want to have commemorative photos all of a sudden? Utena: Well, it's like... Utena: Akio-san, you get in too. Akio: You really treasure your memories. Utena: Well, that's not quite it, but... Anthy: Stop that. Chu-chu. Akio: That ring is a memory from your childhood, right? Utena: That's right. I got invited to this play the Theater Club's doing after school today. Utena: Shall we go together, just the three of us? Anthy: Sorry. My eyes were closed. sign: Theatrical Troupe: Shadow Play Kashira chalk: The Tale of the Rose Akio: It's been so long since I've seen a play. Anthy: This should be fun. Utena: Do you like plays, Akio-san? Akio: "All life's a stage." Akio: All people are either actors, or spectators. Utena: But I wonder why no one else is here? Maybe we're too early. shadow: Extra. Extra extra extra. shadow: Finally, finally it's begun. shadow: The sealed light. The sorrowful Prince. shadow: That which could not be told until now: the Tale of the Rose! shadow: Beware! Beware! She's here in the world, somewhere. shadow: You too, beware! shadow: I wonder I wonder, do you know what I wonder? shadow: This is a story from the days when all the women of the world were still princesses. shadow: In those days, the world had not yet been completely engulfed in darkness. shadow: Because, the Rose Prince was there. shadow: Growl growl-growl-growl! shadow: Save me! A monster is chasing me! shadow: Gallop gallop gallop! Accursed beast! I shall slay you! shadow: Glargh... shadow: Are you unhurt, princess? shadow: Thank you, Rose Prince. shadow: Then, the promised kiss! shadow: Growl growl growl growl shadow: Save me! It's Christmas Eve, yet I'm all alone! shadow: Gallop gallop gallop! Fear not, for I have reserved us a table at a French restaurant! shadow: Thank you, Rose Prince. shadow: Then, the promised kiss! shadow: Yes, all the women of the world were princesses. shadow: Because we were all protected by the Rose Prince, the world was overflowing with light. shadow: But... shadow: Hello there, Rose Prince. shadow: What is the matter, old woman? shadow: Calamity is threatening the world. shadow: There is one who plans to steal away all the light in the world, shadow: and plunge the land deep into darkness. shadow: Who is this you speak of?! shadow: It is a witch. shadow: A witch?! shadow: Yes. Surely you must know of the castle which floats in the sky. shadow: That is the witch's castle! shadow: The witch who dwells there schemes even now to steal all the light of the world. shadow: What is this "light of the world". shadow: Know ye not of the light? shadow: It is that which is eternal, shadow: shining, shadow: the power of miracles, shadow: the power to revolutionize the world. shadow: Then I shall slay this witch, and protect the light of the world! shadow: Thus, the prince flew to the castle to protect the light of the world and to dispatch the witch. shadow: However! shadow: Welcome to within the castle. shadow: Forsooth! Tis the selfsame old woman! shadow: You fool! This is a trap to emprison you within the castle! shadow: YOU are the light! shadow: Why do you do this? Witch, who art thou? shadow: Have ye not recognized me yet? shadow: Gadzooks! You are my...sister!! shadow: Correct, brother, it is I. shadow: You are the Prince who protects all the women of the world. shadow: You make all the women of the world into princesses - shadow: the Rose Prince. shadow: And I am your - shadow: sister. shadow: I'm the only one who can't become your princess! shadow: But there's nothing I can do about that... shadow: That's why I - shadow: became a witch! shadow: Women who can't be princesses have no choice but to become witches. shadow: And so the witch imprisoned the Prince, and the world was completely enclosed in darkness. shadow: The witch roams this world of darkness even now. shadow: Seeking the young and noble, to sacrifice them anew! shadow: Surely the light presents an obstacle to the witch, to her dominion over the dark. shadow: Beware! Beware! She is still somewhere in this world... shadow: You too, beware! Saionji: Touga. Touga: You're late. Would you hurry up and fight me? Saionji: Isn't this a surprise? Touga: I'm all fired up. I've got a match coming up soon. Touga: It seems a certain person isn't pleased with her continuing to win... Touga: ...without the Sword of Dios appearing. Saionji: I wonder why we all keep losing to that wench. Touga: She's not just a wench. She's a girl who was shown something eternal in her youth. Saionji: She's that girl?! shadows: Cheers! shadow: Our performance today was the greatest! shadow: Ah, the bliss of being an actress! shadow: Extra extra extra extra... shadow: Gadzooks, you are my sister! shadow: Yes, my brother! shadow: The sealed light, the sorrowful Prince, the Tale of the Rose now beblub blub.... shadow: That girl's got talent, but she's kinda weird. shadow: Maybe she doesn't have any friends. shadow: I don't wanna hear that from you! shadow: She definitely doesn't have any friends. shadow: No, she doesn't. Anthy: Good night. Utena: You going to bed already? Utena: So, what did you think of the show today? Akio: A very sophomoric play. Utena: Sophomoric...? Akio: Would you like another cup? Utena: Oh, sure. Utena: Thanks. Akio: It must be hard on you. Utena: Huh? Akio: Anthy. I understand. Akio: It must be tiring being friends with her for so long. Utena: Not at all. On the contrary, it's a big help having her around. Akio: Really? Utena: Himemiya's an important friend to me. Akio: What is a friend, to you? Utena: Well, so...it's someone important, right? Akio: Then...that makes us friends too? Akio: You're always wearing this ring. Utena: Well, I got it from a Prince. Akio: You didn't even take it off that night. Utena: Please, no more. Akio: Loyalty to your prince? Utena: I think I... Utena: want to become a Prince...myself... Akio: You think? Utena: It's just that...when I look at this I remember. Utena: That I mustn't lose my nobility. Utena: I don't really remember that time too well. Akio: "That time"? What do you mean? Utena: I can't remember very well. Dios: What're you doing there? Utena: Nothing. Utena: Hey, are you the Grim Reaper? Dios: No. I do not bring death. Utena: You're pretty. Utena: Who's that? Dios: A witch. Utena: A witch? Dios: The Rose Bride. Utena: The "Rose Bride"? Dios: Those who can die are lucky. Dios: She cannot die. Just go on suffering. Utena: Why? Dios: It's her punishment for stealing a prince from all the women of the world. Dios: That which could not be told until now: the Tale of the Rose. Dios: Anthy... Dios: Anthy... Anthy: I'm right here. crowd: Prince!...we beg you...please save us... man: Prince, we know you're here! Come out and fight for us! man: You're the only one who can save our daughter! man: All of our daughters are waiting for you! man: Hurry up and fight! Prince! Anthy: You mustn't move anymore! Dios: But they're calling for help... Dios: I've got to go to them... crowd: Please save us...save us... Anthy: Stop now. Don't fight anymore. Anthy: You'll die. crowd: Prince!...Prince, please fight!... man: Who're you?! Anthy: Dios is gone. He's mine and mine alone. Anthy: I've sealed him somewhere where your hands can never reach. crowd: What?...how dreadful... man: Infernal witch! Dios: She sacrificed herself to save her beloved Prince. Dios: Even though she was the only one who truly loved the Prince... Dios: And what's more, the Prince who loved her was no longer the Prince she knew, but instead... Dios: he became the Ends of the World. Utena: This is... Dios: And her suffering was all that remained. Utena: Hey, save her! Utena: It's too cruel! Utena: Save her! Utena: Save her... Dios: She can no longer be saved. Dios: The only one who can save her is a Prince she believes in. Utena: You're a Prince, right? Dios: I can't become her Prince. Utena: Why not? Dios: You're such a gentle child. Thank you for your tears. Utena: Then I'll become a Prince! Utena: I'll become her Prince and save her! Dios: If you can retain that nobility even when you grow up, Dios: you may indeed be able to save her from her eternal suffering. Dios: But you will surely forget all about this night. Dios: And even if you do remember, you're a girl. Dios: Soon you'll become a lady. Utena: I will! I'll become a Prince no matter what! Dios: Then that ring will surely lead you here again. Utena: I kinda feel like I saw a familiar landscape in a dream... Utena: I just can't remember. Utena: Can't you sleep? Anthy: I was looking at your face while you slept. Anthy: Who are you? text: Next Episiode Preview Utena: That Touga...he dragged me out horseback riding with him. Anthy: Aren't the horses adorable? Utena: But while we were riding together, I lost my balance and almost fell off the horse. Anthy: Ooh, how scary. Utena: But I got saved at the last moment by Akio-san riding a white horse. Utena: But just what does Touga think he's doing, getting close to me all of a sudden?
