It’s funny you should mention NGE. It’s director is/was supposedly best friends with Utena’s. Which would explain a looooootttt.

I advocate the series over all else, really. The movie is great, but only really works after you’ve seen the series.

But the series never made it to my country.

Also, can I credit Sailor Moon for making me feminist? Not strictly true, but I loved it so much.

The movie is basically the 40 episodes of the TV series, squashed into 90 minutes, with at least 50% more weirdness and 30% more hair. Some of the plot and characterisation is fairly different. Do watch it, but I would suggest not watching it first. It might be quite hard to understand as a first view of the Utena phenomenon.

Yes, that’s something we must fix or we’ll literally die.

That t-shirt is the greatest thing since my hair. I need one.

Rob’s got this one I think!

That’s the Better Myths one anyway.

I want to watch more Utena. I’ve seen the first couple of episodes where it’s just starting to lay out the plot but it was late at night at your place and I only watched the first two! Must sort that.

I repeat my question:

Would the movie make a good first sampling of Revolutionary Girl Utena? Or do we need to see the original series?
