Synopsis:
Utena never
wanted to be a Duelist. She came to the Ohtori Academy in
pursuit of the mysterious prince from her past, not to fight for
possession of the Rose Bride. The problem is that the Rose
Bride - Anthy-is more than just a prize - she's Utena's friend.
But the
President of the Student Council is also a Duelist, and he may be
Utena's long-lost prince as well. Can Utena fight the man
she's loved since childhood? If she doesn't, her best friend
will lose her freedom!

DVD REVIEW:
I'm addicted to
Revolutionary Girl Utena and I can't wait for more! The
second DVD features episode 8 through 13. The series
continues to get better now as Utena is set to duel against more
of the student council. WHOAH!
Well, this time the
DVD comes with only six episodes (the first had seven).
Since this is a TV series, I'm not expect OAV quality. As
for the sound, again I don't expect major sound effects because
it's from a TV series. But the DVD has one problem which is
the subtitles. Although it is yellow, it is hard to see
sometimes over a white background. It needs to have a black
edge like some anime I have seen. As for the DVD in
whole, I don' t have a DVD-rom, so I don't know about the other
things it came with but the special features are simple. The
scene selections are good but for a multi-series on DVD, the
"Haunted Junction" is the best menu system because you
can skip to the theme, the anime sections before and after the
main commercial, ending and the trailer. On "Utena"
it goes from the intro scene to I think the middle segment of the
anime. Oh well. The DVD also comes out with
trailers for other Software Sculptors anime releases and also, a
segment to hear some of the songs.
Speaking about the
songs, really interesting and unique songs in this anime.
Anyway, the DVD rocks! Check it out!!!
