>2/3 way through, it's a Nanami episode

Only plebs hate Nanami and her episodes.

Nanami episodes are plebfilter.

The egg episode was the best.

my nigga

>It's a Nanami episode.

>try to watch this
>cant get into it
It was the same for LoGH as well, when I try to watch this stuff I just cant get into it
Maybe space opera isnt for me?

Nanami only made a brief cameo in the manga and in the anime she had a shit ton of episodes.

Because Nanami was best girl.

You just don't like the aesthetic. There's nothing wrong with not liking a style of show, we all have our own tastes.

That said, not enjoying Nanami episodes is a crime

nah we already had a thread yesterday
you don't get two

>it's a "our boy Sainjo is right about everything" episode
Shit, that's every episode.

>implying
Utena should get the same amount of attention NGE does.

Nanami is secretly the best girl. (Ok second best behind utena)

Those are objectively the funniest of the show.

Anyone have timed subs for the 1080p rip they are all slightly off and I'm too lazy.

>it's a Shiori episode

Evangelion just feels more consistent and has more rewatch value. NGE has scenes in the first ep that you won't understand unless you've seen the whole thing. Utena doesn't.

Evangelion a shit

>utena doesn't have scenes in the first episode that you won't understand unless you've seen the whole thing

I muxed the 1080 raws with the subs from a 720P subs that I found in batch here subs.com.ru/page.php?id=6384

anthy alone gives utena more rewatch value than NGE

>nanami cocksuckers
WEW

Utena has top tier rewatch value, I literally just rewatched it for the 2nd time this year, and there was so much shit that went over my head the first time.
Along with tons of symbolism I could understand now.

why utena never wear panties anyway

>Utena should get the same amount of attention NGE does.
I agree that it deserves the same level of attention/respect but I really don't want to see as many retards and shitposters in Utena threads are there are in Eva threads.

Why is this anime getting such a resurgence in popularity lately? It's older than 95% of this board.

Princes don't wear panties

20th anniversary this year might have something to do with it.

Are you kidding? Utena is a top tier rewatchable show. There's tons of shit you're bound to miss the first time around.

I still don't understand the black rose arc.

We wuz ghosts 'n shiet

>1997
I dont believe it

It's summer. We have daily Naruto threads that get max replies. Believe it.

Naruto threads have been the norm since that dumb series "ended".
At least I can filter all of it out.

Touga is such a spaz holy shit

I remember when Sup Forums was good.

Touga a best boy.

Can you hear it?

those are the best episodes probably wouldn't have watched it all the way through without it

probably wouldn't watch this all the way through if not for the Iserlohn episodes

>that pink haired guy and brown guy reminds me of someone, but I don't know who

>Nanami's Egg isn't the best episode of anime

no bro dont ring a bell
its literally the most stupid one

Nanami episodes are as best as they are stupid.

yeah but the cowbell one is way better than the egg

they are literally the /y/ to utena and anthy's /u/

if your soul hasn't truly given up....

nopan is the mark is a true prince. she's got gym shorts, those are kinda the same thing. panties are uncomfortable to wear with them, the fabric starts riding up and crawling into your vag

Nigga, Nanami comic relief episodes were the best because most of them were analogies that made the show easier to understand.

Also, wincest.

>In the first duel Saionji says that the castle in the arena is an illusion
>It's never mentioned again until the projector gets destroyed in the final episode

Saijonji was the smarters character, he knew that witch Anthy needed to be put on her place from the get go and history redeemed him.

To those people who question "when does Utena gets good?" the answer is Nanami episodes

All filler episodes remind me to Ranma 1/2

Was all 90's anime that non-sensical?

except the part where he burned his eggs

The only advantage NGE has over Utena is robots. Also, a lot of neets like the main neet protagonists. I wonder why!?

>impliying that anyone likes shinji

I think it gets good starting from the Nemuro season.

Before that it was just a conventional magic anime girl tv show with yuri innuendo and then the producer started doing coke and postmodernism.

tomboys > NEETs

Stop misusing NEET you retarded newfag.

>Touga slept with men too.

What did Chiho Saitō mean by this?

>tfw now we even have a pokemon sub-board and Sup Forums is no longer working as a containment gulag for neonazis

fuck normies man

>Before that it was just a conventional magic anime girl tv

It's fantastic from the very beginning. Sure the first arc is a more traditional story, but the show only presents that so it can blow it to smithereens by the end.

I like Shinji.

>implying Ikuhara isn't high on something 24/7

rape

20th anniversary + new album.

Nemuro was a [spoilers]gay shotacon[/spoilers]

That arc is anime filler, just watch the one where Utena has to fight against the student council again but this time with cars

I like the black rose arc though, I just still don't fully understand it.

Was Egg really about her period?

I bet you hated the recap episodes too, fag.

100%

Bisexual

Absolutely. That was one of the clearest metaphors in the whole show.

New album? Nice.

99% of the characters in the show are bisexual.

I thought it was about virginity.

Nanami is pure.

Niggah, Utena it self is an execise in re-contextualization.
Literally, the genius of the show really comes through on the second viewing and the realization of how much of a manupulative passive-agressive cunt Anthy really is and how fake Utena's whole prince façade is, especially in the first episode.

Did you not realize how Utena seemingly is undisturbed by Saionji violently abusing his gf? Even with her whole "saving the damsels" stick?
Or how her first reaction to seeing her bff get humiliated and run off crying is not to go after her and try to console her but to challenge the person she thinks wronged her to a fight?
What kind of friend is that?
Or the fact Utena doesn't go to the cops or teacher or other students when she realizes people are passing this chick around like property?

And did you notice how weird it is that Saionji, a guy that seems to have no interest in any girls besides Anthy (and Wakaba but not really) and only cares about his rivalry with Touga would bother to post some random love letter he got on the wall to make fun of some fangirl?
It just isn't his style, so who could have posted that letter and why?
Don't you see, the game was rigged from the start.

Hell, Utena's whole first season climax is a farce, and so is it's message.
Utena seemingly learns that she shouldn't do something 'cuz people expect her to, but because she wants to (like dress in the male uniform), but what about what Anthy wants to do?
She is still a slave by the end of the season and Utena was apparently fighting "to get back herself" when she beat Touga, so how about Anthy? You know, the chick that is seemingly now Touga's sex slave?
Utena doesn't seem to actually care about Anthy but about how Anthy's status as a victim allows her to fulfill her prince fantasy.
Like a person that donates to a cause just so she can brag about it.

It is genius in some many level, damn I love this show.

>Nemuro was a genius prodigy, some sort of scientist, but also a "robot man", cold and calculating, un-familiar with human emotions.
>he is hired by Akio and Anthy to work on a "project" with a with a number of other young scientists, the subject of the reasearch seems to be perpetual motion.
>There he meets Tokiko and her brother, Mamiya.
>Tokiko is working on the project to try and find a cure to her brother's illness
>Mamiya has no hope for a cure, he preferes to die young than withering away like a flower (symbolized by the sugar flowers), he hopes Nemuro will take care of his sister when he passes.
>Nemuro's research makes small breakthroughs (explaing the time distortions on the academy) but no concrete results.
>Nemuro, Mamiya and Tokiko for an impromptu family (symbolized by the cats)
>It's important to note that there are also many gay couples amoung Nemuro's reasearch team, he try to undertand his emotion to Tokiko through that context.
>Nemuro gets cucked, hard! SUPER HARD.
>he goes nuts and sets fire to the research center burning everyone in it alive.
>Realizing what he has done, Nemuro puts the blame on Mamiya, knowing he will soon be dead and hoping Nemuro will still take care of Tokiko once he passes, Mamiya takes the blame, the plan obviously doesn't work.
>Tokiko and Mamiya leave the Academy, Mamiya presumedly some time soon after.
>Nemuro becomes a "ghost" in the academy and another pawn for Akio and Anthy
>His broken mind builds a new reality, in which is loved Mamiya and all his fellow scientists were "duelists", incorporating elements from his memory, to try to spare him of the psycological damage.

>you now remember Shitsurakuen copied Utena nearly 1:1 but ended up bait and switching to piss of /u/fags

Like me ;_;

This is honestly one of the best summaries/deconstructions of a series I've seen posted on Sup Forums.

Posts like this are part of why I keep coming to Sup Forums, because even if I've reached a similar conclusion as someone else they've probably voiced it better than I ever could have.

When what you want to do is what you have to do
You can hear the voice of the World

Nanami is literally the purest character in the whole show. Probably the only one who's even remotely pure.

Well, maybe the shota is too, though likely not after Touga's done with him.

Any scenes that made you cry?

not even the shota, the only pure person is that dude that couldnt get in the black rose elevator

The poor Onion Prince.

Oh yeah, can't forget him. Can Onion Prince beat Nanami for being the purest character in Utena?

I'd say so since not even Mikage wanted to corrupt him.

>kills kittens
>wants to fuck her brother
>"pure"
Everyone in Utena is fucked

To add to this user at the end he admits that he's has always in some way known and he comes to understand the truth. So he graduates but doesn't revolutionize. But hey he gets Tokiko.

>Cast was like 15 and the younger characters were even younger

>Nanami was 13

Why did everyone look 2 years older.

Everybody tries their hardest to look and act "adult" in high school but in hindsight you realize it's just a bunch of kids playing pretend.

it's a girls' show. girls value maturity

>Think it's kinda weird that Tsuwabuki wanted to bone Nanami (they were in just the right spot that my /ss/ boner didn't activate

>Realize it's not that weird that an 11-12 year old has a crush on a 13 year old

>12 year old tries to rape

I love this show so much.

Well fuck you guys convinced me to watch this show a 2nd time(watched it last year with my sister and loved it). Probably this weekend.

Nanami is the best girl and better than the faggot shit and Utena getting curry dick.

NGE is piss. It's beyond inconsistent and there is no reason to even watch it.

Utena helped me realize I was a lesbian
