[00:08] ---
    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] ---
    
[01:38] ---
    And so we've come to the
    last of the Black Roses.
[01:42] ---
    But the question is whether
    he, himself, will fight.
[01:45] ---
    Nemuro Memorial Hall
[01:59] ---
    We have to find out who they are at once!
[02:04] ---
    They're not trying to take the Rose Bride.
[02:07] ---
    They're trying to kill her!
[02:09] ---
    It goes without saying that
    maintaining academy security...
[02:12] ---
    ...is our duty as members of the
    Student Council enforcement division.
[02:16] ---
    Really! Just who are these people?!
[02:19] ---
    They trick ordinary students...
[02:20] ---
    ...into attacking Utena
    Tenjou one after another!
[02:23] ---
    You seem irritated.
[02:26] ---
    Is it because they've targeted
    friends and even your dear Touga?
[02:29] ---
    You're well-informed, as always, I see.
[02:32] ---
    But if your information
    lines are that good...
[02:34] ---
    ...I wish you'd use them to figure
    out who we're fighting here!
[02:42] ---
    We have a lead.
[02:43] ---
    I thought the Rose Seals
    could only be possessed...
[02:46] ---
    ...by those chosen by End of the World.
[02:49] ---
    Then End of the World must
    be moving in the shadows.
[02:53] ---
    Perhaps...
[02:55] ---
    But if you consider the situation...
[02:57] ---
    ...it's obvious whoever it is has
    End of the World's backing.
[03:01] ---
    In any case, what's obvious...
[03:03] ---
    ...is that whoever it is is at this academy!
[03:09] ---
    Sorry, I couldn't hear what you both said.
[03:14] ---
    Chu-Chu!
[03:16] ---
    Chu-Chu!
[03:18] ---
    Here, Chu-Chu!
[03:21] ---
    Great... Where'd he go?
[03:24] ---
    Is this little guy yours?
[03:29] ---
    Oh, Chu-Chu!
[03:32] ---
    You're...
[03:37] ---
    Sorry. Did he cause you any trouble?
[03:41] ---
    No.
[03:42] ---
    I found him in the kitchen,
    stuck in a mousetrap.
[03:45] ---
    He was crying.
[03:47] ---
    A mousetrap?
[03:48] ---
    Could you just behave for once?!
[03:51] ---
    Miss Utena Tenjou...
[03:53] ---
    How do you know my name?
[03:56] ---
    It's nice to meet you.
[03:57] ---
    I've had my eye on you for a while now.
[04:01] ---
    I'm Souji Mikage, from
    the high school section.
[04:03] ---
    Mikage...?
[04:05] ---
    As in the genius who runs the Mikage Seminar?
[04:13] ---
    What do you think, Miss Utena Tenjou?
[04:16] ---
    Would you consider joining my seminar?
[04:18] ---
    What? Me?!
[04:20] ---
    The last test I took was to
    make up for failing another one!
[04:25] ---
    This isn't about academic prowess.
[04:27] ---
    What my seminar is always after...
[04:29] ---
    ...are those with individualistic
    personalities.
[04:34] ---
    You're more than welcome
    to just come and visit.
[04:37] ---
    You have your seminar
    in this building, right?
[04:42] ---
    That's right.
[04:43] ---
    Nemuro Memorial Hall.
[04:45] ---
    You must have heard the
    stories about this building.
[04:50] ---
    Yeah...
[04:54] ---
    The story that 100 boys
    died here is completely true.
[04:59] ---
    There was once a man called Professor Nemuro.
[05:03] ---
    There was a fire here.
[05:05] ---
    He and his students were trapped
    inside and burned to death.
[05:10] ---
    They rebuilt Nemuro Memorial Hall soon after.
[05:15] ---
    Still...
[05:19] ---
    ...that was a long time ago.
[05:22] ---
    Pardon the intrusion!
[05:24] ---
    Akio? You in here?
[05:29] ---
    I guess not.
[05:31] ---
    That's kinda strange.
[05:49] ---
    It's you.
[05:56] ---
    We're only partners in business.
[05:58] ---
    I have no reason to obey your orders.
[06:00] ---
    Yes.
[06:01] ---
    That's been our contract.
[06:03] ---
    Ever since that time...
[06:15] ---
    It doesn't vanish immediately,
    does it, Professor Nemuro?
[06:19] ---
    What doesn't?
[06:20] ---
    The snow, Professor.
[06:21] ---
    Stop with the "professor" stuff.
[06:24] ---
    We're the same age.
[06:26] ---
    Distinctions are important.
[06:28] ---
    With a genius like you with us,
[06:30] ---
    things are really taking off, right?
[06:32] ---
    Oh, please.
[06:33] ---
    You give me too much credit.
[06:35] ---
    Anyway, I never thought they'd
    take secrecy so seriously here.
[06:39] ---
    They treat us like parts in a machine!
[06:41] ---
    That was in the contract
    we made with this school.
[06:45] ---
    But we don't even know...
[06:47] ---
    ...what the section next door is researching!
[06:49] ---
    Rumor has it it's something about
    "the power to revolutionize the world."
[06:52] ---
    Or something about "attaining eternity."
[06:55] ---
    Can't you give me a hint, sir?
[06:58] ---
    All I know are the same rumors.
[07:01] ---
    Not that they interest me much.
[07:03] ---
    By the way, there's a question
    I've been meaning to ask.
[07:07] ---
    What's that?
[07:08] ---
    What are those rings you
    all wear on your left hand?
[07:14] ---
    They're nothing special.
[07:16] ---
    They're just fashionable lately.
[07:19] ---
    So, that's Professor Nemuro, the genius...
[07:21] ---
    He really doesn't know the
    details of what's going on here.
[07:24] ---
    So it seems.
[07:25] ---
    And yet that man vouches
    for his intelligence.
[07:28] ---
    Nemuro's paper was interesting,
    but the man himself is pretty dry.
[07:32] ---
    Pretending to be uninterested in
    everything is the mark of inexperience.
[07:35] ---
    Let him act that way if he wants.
[07:37] ---
    The guy's like a living computer.
[07:39] ---
    We should use him as much as we can.
[07:43] ---
    Yes, I was a living computer back then...
[07:48] ---
    Computers are superior machines,
[07:50] ---
    but machines by themselves lack purpose.
[07:52] ---
    I was a dry man passing dry days.
[07:54] ---
    And it was also true that...
[07:56] ---
    ...I didn't really care about the
    details of my research then.
[08:00] ---
    The project I was involved
    in wasn't really progressing,
[08:03] ---
    but I didn't care.
[08:06] ---
    Professor Nemuro, the head researcher, right?
[08:11] ---
    I've been sent by the Board.
[08:14] ---
    I'm here as their current inspector.
[08:16] ---
    I'm Tokiko Chida. How do you do?
[08:27] ---
    The streets around here are terrible.
[08:29] ---
    It must have been hard to walk
    through that quagmire outside.
[08:32] ---
    Well, a bit.
[08:37] ---
    So, what did you call me
    out to your house for?
[08:41] ---
    Too strong...
[08:45] ---
    The tea seems a little too strong.
[08:47] ---
    Strange, since I let it steep
    for as long as I usually do.
[08:49] ---
    Is it possible for an hourglass to run slow?
[08:54] ---
    The job assigned to me is
    proceeding on schedule.
[08:57] ---
    I can't guarantee that it
    will be completed, though.
[09:01] ---
    I know you're not the type of man
    to take orders from someone else.
[09:06] ---
    Genius is a gift from God.
[09:08] ---
    It can't be tied down to mundane things.
[09:12] ---
    I'm no genius.
[09:15] ---
    Why are you working on this job?
[09:18] ---
    Purely for business reasons.
[09:20] ---
    Although I think I've already done
    more than my contract called for.
[09:27] ---
    We've assembled 100 extraordinary
    boys here at Ohtori Academy...
[09:31] ---
    ...and they're proceeding with the project.
[09:33] ---
    They spread rumors that the
    research is to revolutionize the world.
[09:38] ---
    That it will allow them to attain eternity.
[09:44] ---
    To attain eternity...
[09:46] ---
    It sounds like we're building a
    perpetual motion machine.
[09:51] ---
    People should show more humility...
[09:52] ---
    ...and be grateful for what God
    has already granted to them.
[09:57] ---
    Still, I'm sure you can do this...
[10:01] ---
    Excuse me a moment.
[10:06] ---
    Mamiya! What are you doing?!
[10:12] ---
    Didn't I tell you to spend the day resting?!
[10:16] ---
    But I'm a little worried about the roses.
[10:18] ---
    Get back to bed at once!
[10:21] ---
    In a moment...
[10:23] ---
    What I hate most are people who
    don't care about themselves!
[10:32] ---
    Sorry you had to see this.
[10:36] ---
    Now get back to bed!
[10:41] ---
    Professor Nemuro?
[10:43] ---
    And you are...?
[10:44] ---
    I'm Chida Tokiko's brother, Mamiya.
[10:47] ---
    I've wanted to meet you, sir.
[10:50] ---
    You must have heard some
    interesting stories about me.
[10:53] ---
    How I'm like a living computer, right?
[10:56] ---
    I read your paper.
[10:59] ---
    You're the first person I've ever
    respected aside from my sister.
[11:05] ---
    My sister came to Ohtori
    Academy just to meet you.
[11:32] ---
    You won't rest quietly
    without this, will you?
[11:34] ---
    I like it when you give me an injection.
[11:37] ---
    Don't say such silly things, naughty boy.
[11:41] ---
    It's for his sake.
    That's why I'm involved in this.
[11:47] ---
    I should just give up.
[11:50] ---
    That's what the doctors all say.
[11:52] ---
    But... If the project succeeds...
[11:55] ---
    It has nothing to do with medicine.
[11:59] ---
    Even if it succeeds, it won't
    cure your brother's illness.
[12:03] ---
    But...
[12:04] ---
    It may allow you to "attain eternity," right?
[12:13] ---
    Sorry for crying like this.
[12:15] ---
    No...
[12:16] ---
    I almost feel like this is the
    first time I've seen a person cry.
[12:21] ---
    Do you have someone who's important to you?
[12:27] ---
    Or perhaps it's not possible for a
    genius to love another person.
[12:36] ---
    Perhaps you're right...
[12:41] ---
    That's how it's been up till now.
[12:45] ---
    Professor Nemuro's been working
    like a man possessed lately.
[12:50] ---
    The Board sent in an inspector, didn't they?
[12:53] ---
    She certainly seems to be
    the right one for the job!
[12:56] ---
    Exactly. That man always succeeds
    at what he sets out to do.
[13:03] ---
    But does the professor still not
    know what this is all for?
[13:13] ---
    You're not resting.
[13:15] ---
    Are you sure it's all right?
[13:16] ---
    Yes. I feel a bit better today.
[13:20] ---
    I see.
[13:23] ---
    The snow in this garden
    just isn't melting, is it?
[13:27] ---
    My sister was called away
    by the Board, right?
[13:30] ---
    I imagine she won't be
    home until this evening.
[13:33] ---
    That's all right.
[13:36] ---
    I came to see you today.
[13:38] ---
    Here. Would you like some?
[13:41] ---
    They're sugar-preserved roses.
[13:43] ---
    My sister made them.
[13:45] ---
    These dried flowers, too.
[13:50] ---
    She doesn't like to see flowers die...
[13:54] ---
    This way, even these short-lived
    flowers can last a bit longer.
[14:00] ---
    But...
[14:02] ---
    I wonder if the flowers like
    being made to last longer.
[14:06] ---
    Nothing in this world is eternal.
[14:09] ---
    Although...
[14:10] ---
    A heart that longs for eternity
    could be considered beautiful.
[14:15] ---
    You don't believe that I
    or your sister will succeed?
[14:23] ---
    I deeply respect you both.
[14:25] ---
    And I appreciate what you're doing.
[14:31] ---
    Sorry to bother you.
[14:33] ---
    I'll come again.
[14:35] ---
    Professor Nemuro.
[14:38] ---
    I'll be sure to tell my sister
    that you're worried about me.
[15:05] ---
    You just can't solve that equation, can you?
[15:13] ---
    Outsiders aren't permitted in here!
[15:15] ---
    There are no outsiders here.
[15:18] ---
    Aside from you, of course.
[15:21] ---
    That is the first step towards
    the power to revolutionize the world.
[15:25] ---
    And then everything will begin from there...
[15:36] ---
    Ridiculous!
[15:37] ---
    I can't possibly do this!
[15:40] ---
    Isn't that the ring everyone here wears?
[15:43] ---
    The Rose Seal.
[15:47] ---
    It symbolizes a contract made with me.
[15:49] ---
    Contract?
[15:50] ---
    Yes.
[15:51] ---
    I've made contracts with
    all 100 boys who work here.
[15:56] ---
    That's insane... What is this contract?
[15:59] ---
    These boys you have under contract...
[16:01] ---
    Why have they been brought
    together like this?
[16:04] ---
    And even if we do attain eternity,
    it won't make her happy...
[16:09] ---
    "Her," you say?
[16:13] ---
    I give this Rose Seal to you.
[16:15] ---
    If you desire eternity,
    put it on your finger.
[16:20] ---
    Your only choice is to
    revolutionize the world.
[16:24] ---
    The path you must take
    has been prepared for you.
[17:22] ---
    Is it true?! You did this?!
[17:25] ---
    You were behind this?!
[17:28] ---
    Yes...
[17:31] ---
    Why...?
[17:32] ---
    Why did you do this?!
[17:36] ---
    They had a contract.
[17:40] ---
    Ancient creatures died and became
    the fuels we mine, like oil and coal.
[17:45] ---
    Without a sacrifice like that,
[17:47] ---
    our energy-based civilization
    would have been impossible.
[17:50] ---
    Such sacrifices are always necessary...
[17:53] ---
    What are you talking about?
[17:55] ---
    This is the first step
    towards the task you have.
[17:59] ---
    One day, the path to eternity
    will be opened from this school.
[18:07] ---
    Mr. Nemuro...
[18:09] ---
    Mamiya did the right thing.
[18:12] ---
    I, too, now wish to grasp
    eternity with my own hands...
[19:07] ---
    Extra! Extra! Extra!
[19:16] ---
    It's finished! Science has
    produced an all-purpose robot!
[19:20] ---
    Robots-do-not-age.
[19:22] ---
    Robots-do-not-tire.
[19:24] ---
    I-shall-catch-monkeys.
[19:26] ---
    You are superior to humans!
[19:29] ---
    Robots-are-superior.
[19:31] ---
    I-catch-many-monkeys.
[19:33] ---
    You will never be troubled.
[19:35] ---
    Robots-are-never-troubled.
[19:37] ---
    When-I-see-a-monkey, I-catch-it-quickly.
[19:40] ---
    Robots-do-not-feel-lonely.
[19:43] ---
    I-have-the-monkeys-for-company.
[19:45] ---
    Robots-keep-working-on-and-on.
[19:48] ---
    I-have-caught-many-monkeys.
[19:51] ---
    But it breaks my heart
    to see you like this...
[19:56] ---
    A-monkey! A-monkey!
[20:07] ---
    Oh, it's you.
[20:08] ---
    It's been a long time.
[20:09] ---
    This school's changed a lot.
[20:13] ---
    I just saw Professor Nemuro over there.
[20:22] ---
    Look, you don't have to do what
    this mysterious guy tells you to do!
[20:27] ---
    No, it can't be helped.
[20:30] ---
    Because I am the Rose Bride.
[20:32] ---
    Don't be stupid!
[20:39] ---
    What I hate most are people who
    don't care about themselves!
[20:49] ---
    Tokiko...
[20:51] ---
    He's just like you.
[20:53] ---
    He hasn't aged a bit since then.
[20:55] ---
    So long as they stay in this
    garden we call an academy,
[20:58] ---
    people will never become adults.
[21:01] ---
    There's something wrong about that.
[21:04] ---
    You're living a normal life?
[21:09] ---
    Yes...
[21:10] ---
    My husband is a kind man.
    He provides well for me.
[21:15] ---
    What brought you here today?
[21:16] ---
    I came to visit my brother Mamiya's grave.
[21:29] ---
    Say, you must know, don't you?
[21:32] ---
    That for a plant to bear fruit,
    its flowers have to die.
[21:35] ---
    Indeed...
[21:36] ---
    
[21:42] ---
    Missing truth and forever,
    kissing love and true your heart.
[21:47] ---
    Hold me tight with your arms so true.
    dakishimete honto no te de
[21:51] ---
    The key to unlock tomorrow is reality.
    ashita wo hiraku kagi wa reality
