    Let's live heroically, let's live with style.
    isagiyoku kakko yoku ikite yukou
[00:15] ---
    Even if the two of us are torn apart...
    tatoe futari hanarebanare ni nattemo
[00:20] ---
    ...take my revolution.
[00:20] ---
    Revolutionary Girl Utena
    ...take my revolution.
[00:23] ---
    Revolutionary Girl Utena
[00:24] ---
    In the sunlit garden, we both joined our hands.
    hikarisasu garden te wo toriai
[00:29] ---
    Drawing close for comfort, we both swore...
    chikai atta nagusame atta
[00:32] ---
    ...never again would we ever fall in love.
    mou koi wa ni do to shinai yotte
[00:39] ---
    I see that photo of us standing cheek to cheek...
    hoho wo yoseatte utsuru shashin no
[00:47] ---
    ...and place a bit of my loneliness in our smiles.
    egao ni sukoshi no samishisa tsumekonde
[00:56] ---
    Even if I dream, even if I cry, even if I get hurt...
    yume wo mite namida shite kizutsuitemo
[01:00] ---
    ...reality keeps on coming recklessly.
    genjitsu wa gamushara ni kuru shi
[01:04] ---
    I wanna find my own place, the value of being...
    jibun no ibasho sonzai kachi wo mitsuketai
[01:07] ---
    ...the person I've been until now...
    kyou made no jibun wo
[01:11] ---
    Let's find the strength to throw it all away.
    isagiyoku nugisuteru
[01:13] ---
    Strip down to nothing at all.
    hadaka ni naru
[01:15] ---
    Become like rose petals, blowing free!
    jiyuu wo mau bara no you ni
[01:19] ---
    Even if the two of us are torn apart...
    tatoe futari hanarebanare ni nattemo
[01:22] ---
    ...I swear that I will change the world.
    watashi wa sekai wo kaeru
[01:27] ---
    
[01:34] ---
    It feels nice to eat lunch
    outside once in a while.
[01:36] ---
    Totally, totally!
[01:38] ---
    And I'm a total genius for suggesting it.
[01:40] ---
    Here we go...
[01:43] ---
    I made your lunch too, Utena.
[01:47] ---
    But, I...
[01:50] ---
    Don't you dare!
[01:51] ---
    You'll waste this nice day
    with that tasteless lunch!
[01:54] ---
    Besides, this lunch is to show
    my love for my wonderful Utena!
[01:59] ---
    Look! Look! LOOK!
[02:03] ---
    Sure...
[02:03] ---
    Oh, joy!
[02:05] ---
    Cut it out! Whoa-whoa-whoa!
[02:09] ---
    Gracefully Cruel - The One
    Who Picks that Flower
[02:19] ---
    Okay, okay, prepare to be amazed.
[02:21] ---
    Ta-DAA!
[02:23] ---
    It's mostly instant, yeah,
[02:25] ---
    but it turned out just so
    INCREDIBLY pretty, didn't it?
[02:30] ---
    Well, besides showing your love,
[02:32] ---
    it definitely looks tasty.
[02:34] ---
    Thanks, Wakaba.
[02:35] ---
    All right!
[02:37] ---
    I knew making this would be worth it!
[02:40] ---
    Way to go, Wakaba!
[02:42] ---
    You work so hard!
[02:43] ---
    Mistress Utena?
[02:45] ---
    Would you look at my lunch, too?
[02:47] ---
    As long as it isn't shaved ice again...
[02:51] ---
    There we are.
[02:52] ---
    It's kinda big, isn't it?
[02:55] ---
    I'm really impressed.
[02:56] ---
    Please, help yourself.
[02:59] ---
    Okay, the first level is...
[03:02] ---
    That's, uh, takoyaki, isn't it...?
[03:05] ---
    Yes.
[03:06] ---
    Moving on to level two...
[03:10] ---
    Yakisoba... Yeah, it is...
[03:12] ---
    Doesn't it look delicious?
[03:14] ---
    And the third level...
[03:17] ---
    Oh, my.
[03:22] ---
    Wow, it's pretty normal food, after all.
[03:25] ---
    Although it's more like fair food.
[03:26] ---
    "Pretty normal"? Just
    what were you expecting?
[03:30] ---
    Let's answer that question AFTER we eat.
[03:34] ---
    What are you looking at?
[03:38] ---
    Oh, it's you.
[03:41] ---
    I'm looking at a lonely princess.
[03:46] ---
    Miss Tenjou... And Miss Himemiya.
[03:49] ---
    Miss Tenjou and the others look
    like they're having a lot of fun.
[03:52] ---
    So what do you mean by "lonely princess"?
[03:54] ---
    You cannot see it. Only I can.
[04:00] ---
    You're talking about an illusion?
[04:03] ---
    It's quite real.
[04:05] ---
    Something I feel just by looking at her.
[04:09] ---
    Cool! Cool!
[04:35] ---
    Utena, what are you looking at?
[04:37] ---
    No, it's nothing...
[04:38] ---
    Oh... It's the prince of
    the student council, isn't it?
[04:42] ---
    Prince...
[04:47] ---
    When it happened, he said,
[04:49] ---
    "Your prince was a guy like me, wasn't he?"
[04:55] ---
    If... If that's true,
[04:58] ---
    then he might be my prince from before.
[05:03] ---
    Well done! Well done!
[05:04] ---
    Should he eat that much?
[05:10] ---
    If it cannot break its egg's shell,
    a chick will die without being born.
[05:15] ---
    We are the chick.
[05:16] ---
    The world is our egg.
[05:18] ---
    If we don't crack the world's shell,
    we will die without being born.
[05:22] ---
    Smash the world's shell!
[05:26] ---
    For the revolution of the world!
[05:29] ---
    As you all know already,
[05:32] ---
    Nanami was defeated in
    her duel against Utena Tenjou.
[05:35] ---
    It's a shameful thing to say,
[05:37] ---
    but the difference in their
    skill was clear to see.
[05:39] ---
    As you knew from the start.
[05:41] ---
    Nanami fought only so that she COULD lose.
[05:45] ---
    All as plotted by student council
    president Touga Kiryuu, right?
[05:50] ---
    That all turned out most unfortunately.
[05:53] ---
    I was only trying to treat
    my dear sister well.
[05:56] ---
    Like a pet cat?
[06:06] ---
    6 seconds, 12...
[06:08] ---
    The fault for Nanami losing the
    duel lies within Nanami herself.
[06:12] ---
    And even if someone does lay a plot,
[06:16] ---
    it's the victim's fault for falling into it.
[06:19] ---
    How cold...
[06:21] ---
    If one has deep feelings for a person,
[06:23] ---
    it's only a matter of time
    before those feelings betray them.
[06:29] ---
    Betray them as strongly
    as those feelings are strong.
[06:38] ---
    Your prince was a guy like me, wasn't he?
[07:03] ---
    They're all excellent!
[07:04] ---
    And I hear this variety is difficult to grow.
[07:08] ---
    Thank you.
[07:09] ---
    By the way, I saw you all
    having lunch outside today.
[07:13] ---
    Yes. You saw us, did you?
[07:15] ---
    Mistress Utena and Wakaba
    and Chu-Chu and I...
[07:18] ---
    It was so much fun!
[07:20] ---
    Good to hear.
[07:21] ---
    Wakaba's lunch tasted so good...
[07:25] ---
    I'd like to try making a lunch like that.
[07:29] ---
    The Rose Bride, cooking...!
[07:36] ---
    Your job isn't to cook.
[07:39] ---
    All you need do is stay
    here and tend the roses.
[07:44] ---
    This birdcage is your domain.
[07:47] ---
    And you are the lovely little
    bird who lives within it.
[07:51] ---
    I wish to make this cage my own.
[07:55] ---
    And I would never let you out of it... Ever.
[08:00] ---
    Get away from her!
[08:06] ---
    Hi. So, you've come at last.
[08:08] ---
    You can only see Himemiya as
    the Rose Bride, can't you?!
[08:13] ---
    Am I mistaken?
[08:14] ---
    You are!
[08:15] ---
    Stop going on about who
    gets to own the Rose Bride!
[08:19] ---
    She's just an ordinary girl
    named Anthy Himemiya!
[08:23] ---
    Oh? Are you really just an ordinary girl?
[08:28] ---
    You hate it, don't you?!
[08:29] ---
    Being the Rose Bride?!
[08:32] ---
    I...
[08:34] ---
    Tell him how you really feel!
[08:36] ---
    How I really feel...
[08:38] ---
    Right!
[08:39] ---
    You hate being treated like
    the Rose Bride, don't you?
[08:42] ---
    Just say it to him straight!
[08:44] ---
    Yes. I hate being treated
    like the Rose Bride.
[08:52] ---
    What's so funny?!
[08:53] ---
    Oh, nothing. It's just that she's your bride.
[08:58] ---
    Go on.
[09:01] ---
    What do you want with Himemiya?
[09:03] ---
    My business isn't with her.
[09:05] ---
    I came here to see you.
[09:08] ---
    I've been waiting.
[09:09] ---
    What do you want with me?
[09:12] ---
    I have something important
    to tell you, as your prince.
[09:16] ---
    My prince?
[09:23] ---
    I thought so...
[09:26] ---
    I thought you were my prince.
[09:32] ---
    You were crying when we met, weren't you?
[09:35] ---
    Crying streams of shining tears.
[09:39] ---
    That's right. I was crying...
[09:45] ---
    Was it really you?
[09:47] ---
    Were you the one who saved me then?
[09:49] ---
    Do you want proof?
[09:51] ---
    Proof?
[09:56] ---
    Tell me, did it feel like this?
[09:59] ---
    When he kissed me?
[10:02] ---
    But, it felt this same way... Back when he...
[10:12] ---
    Forgive me. That was indiscreet.
[10:16] ---
    For two Duelists to act that
    way in front of the Rose Bride.
[10:27] ---
    Well, as for that important
    thing I had to tell you...
[10:31] ---
    Utena Tenjou, I challenge you to a duel.
[10:59] ---
    I...
[11:01] ---
    I totally forgot that Touga
    Kiryuu was also a Duelist.
[11:05] ---
    But the prince who
    saved me when I was little...
[11:10] ---
    I came to this school so
    I could meet him once more.
[11:16] ---
    Now the one link I have to the
    prince forces me to fight him.
[11:21] ---
    If only I didn't have this ring...
[11:23] ---
    Mistress Utena!
[11:26] ---
    The tea's ready.
[11:35] ---
    How did you like my lunch
    today, Mistress Utena?
[11:39] ---
    It was good. Thanks.
[11:42] ---
    Wakaba said she really liked it, too.
[11:44] ---
    I'm so glad.
[11:45] ---
    Wakaba is a lot of fun to be around.
[11:48] ---
    Yeah, I always cheer up when I'm with her.
[11:52] ---
    She's a good friend.
[11:53] ---
    You should make friends
    with her, too, Himemiya.
[12:02] ---
    That's right, you've got Chu-Chu.
[12:05] ---
    He's as fun as 10 people, right?
[12:09] ---
    I...
[12:11] ---
    I wish I had more friends.
[12:22] ---
    You will. You will!
[12:24] ---
    If you'd just open your heart and
    talk to them, anyone would like you!
[12:29] ---
    Open my heart?
[12:31] ---
    Sure! You'll do all right.
[12:32] ---
    I'll help you.
[12:40] ---
    I will.
[12:45] ---
    That's right.
[12:46] ---
    I have to protect Himemiya.
[12:49] ---
    I know I can turn Himemiya
    back into a regular girl.
[12:54] ---
    I won't give her to the others.
[12:57] ---
    Not even to my prince!
[13:04] ---
    Now, my son,
[13:06] ---
    I want you to put this
    apple on top of your head.
[13:09] ---
    Yes, Daddy! But...
[13:13] ---
    Good shot, Daddy!
[13:15] ---
    But that was the 37,919th time.
[13:18] ---
    How long are you going to keep this up?
[13:22] ---
    Until a Doctor Stoppage is called.
[13:24] ---
    Enough talking, son.
[13:26] ---
    Now put this apple on top of your head!
[13:29] ---
    Yes, Daddy.
[13:31] ---
    But can't that nobleman let
    you get out of it at least once?
[13:35] ---
    Stop thinking for yourself!
[13:37] ---
    Oh, what a sad sight.
    What is the destiny...
[13:39] ---
    ...of William Tell and his son,
    now an eternal archery machine?
[13:42] ---
    I wonder, I wonder,
    do you know what I wonder?
[13:44] ---
    Uh, Daddy? Aim a little higher.
[13:46] ---
    Uh-oh.
[13:54] ---
    The absolute destiny apocalypse.

[15:24] ---
    We have to fight, no matter what?
[15:44] ---
    Now, then...
[15:46] ---
    I'm afraid I must take your
    precious bird from you.
[15:50] ---
    Shall we begin, Miss Tenjou?
[15:54] ---
    Rose of the noble castle.
[15:59] ---
    Power of Dios that sleeps within me.
[16:03] ---
    Heed your master and come forth!
[16:14] ---
    Grant me the power to
    bring the world revolution!
[16:41] ---
    Don't hold back!
[16:43] ---
    Those who fight with
    compassion lose their lives!
[16:46] ---
    Now remember that and come at me again!

    The Iron Mask of misfortune.
[17:12] ---
    Utena Tenjou...
[17:12] ---
    The Iron Mask of misfortune.
[17:13] ---
    Your swordsmanship is typically amateurish.
[17:13] ---
    The Iron Mask of misfortune.
[17:15] ---
    But the real question will come...
[17:15] ---
    The Iron Mask of misfortune.
[17:16] ---
    ...when the Power of Dios manifests.
[17:30] ---
    Blue skies and oceans, then a wind blows.
[17:33] ---
    Go on, Utena Tenjou!
[17:36] ---
    I can't lose!
[17:37] ---
    The prairie, rabbits, and
    even a flowing river.
[17:39] ---
    Show me the Power of Dios!
[17:44] ---
    Times and the age, they never change.
[17:51] ---
    Times and the age, they're
    something, yet nothing.
[17:58] ---
    Man is described by the
    blood of "make-believe."
[18:01] ---
    Man is also swept away in
    a current of "lessons."
[18:05] ---
    Man can also only convey human nature.
[18:09] ---
    Ever unchanging!
[18:15] ---
    We can see during the day...
[18:16] ---
    We can see during the day...
[18:16] ---
    Your prince was a guy like me, wasn't he?
[18:17] ---
    ...but we can't see at night.
[18:19] ---
    We can see at night...
[18:21] ---
    ...but we can't see during the day.
[18:21] ---
    ...but we can't see during the day.
[18:22] ---
    Anagram.
[18:24] ---
    My prince...
[18:26] ---
    A mysterious word, a mask of words.
[18:29] ---
    And their origin is...
[18:36] ---
    ...you!
[18:58] ---
    Well, how fortunate for you.
[19:01] ---
    Now you no longer have to be caught up...
[19:03] ---
    ...in these unfathomable duels.
[19:08] ---
    Shall we go, Anthy?
[19:09] ---
    Wait...
[19:12] ---
    Don't take Himemiya away, please.
[19:14] ---
    She wants to be an ordinary girl again.
[19:17] ---
    I have to do that for her...
[19:20] ---
    I don't need the power to
    bring revolution to the world!
[19:22] ---
    Himemiya needs me!
[19:25] ---
    You don't understand anything.
[19:25] ---
    You don't understand anything.
[19:27] ---
    It's true!
[19:28] ---
    She said she wants to make more friends!
[19:31] ---
    If I leave her, then she'll
    be all alone again!
[19:38] ---
    Anthy...
[19:39] ---
    Yes?
[19:40] ---
    You're happy being the
    Rose Bride, aren't you?
[19:44] ---
    I...
[19:49] ---
    I'm happy being the Rose Bride.
[19:56] ---
    You don't need friends.
[19:58] ---
    You like being alone, don't you?
[19:59] ---
    Yes, I like being alone.
[19:59] ---
    Yes, I like being alone.
[20:01] ---
    Miss Tenjou, don't you see?
[20:04] ---
    Anthy Himemiya is the bride
    of whomever wins the duel.
[20:08] ---
    While she was engaged to you,
[20:10] ---
    the Code required her to obey you.
[20:13] ---
    It's not true...
[20:14] ---
    The Rose Bride answers her master's wishes.
[20:18] ---
    The wish to make her a normal
    girl was merely your own wish.
[20:23] ---
    It's not true...
[20:24] ---
    Now that you've lost the duel,
    you have no connection to her.
[20:31] ---
    Just forget everything.
    About her and about the duels.
[20:35] ---
    It's not true!
[20:38] ---
    It's not true, Himemiya!
[20:40] ---
    Tell him the truth!
[20:43] ---
    That you hate being the Rose Bride!
[20:45] ---
    That you WANT to make friends!
[20:47] ---
    Didn't you say that to me?!
[20:50] ---
    Anthy, say your farewells.
[20:55] ---
    Farewell, Miss Tenjou.
[21:10] ---
    It's not true...
[21:16] ---
    It's not true...
[21:25] ---
    It's not true!
[21:32] ---
    IT'S NOT TRUE!!!
[21:42] ---
    Missing truth and forever,
    kissing love and true your heart.
[21:47] ---
    Hold me tight with your arms so true.
