What the hell is this? (Revolutionary Girl Utena)

[Evangelist]

I discovered This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JT7vCyakaBs&search=utena) several years ago, and I just happened to stumble upon it again on youtube.

So...what is it exactly? An OAV extra? A parody video? Something the animators made up because they had too much freakin' time on their hands?

Either way...it's pretty damn funny. Loved the unabashed shirtlessness and all the singing. Too hilarious...But who's the girl with the long, sea-green hair? The girl with the maroon pigtails? I almost mistook them for Kanae and Shiori at first, but they look to be completely original characters.

Can't believe the creators have found ANOTHER way to mess with my head...

Yeah I don't understand the green haired and purple haired girl either. And they're mixing the movie and the tv series, but then again utena is wearing the movie outfit but still has long hair.. but Juri is in her movie and Tv form.. la la la

This is the intro video to the Utena video game, "Four Days in Ohtori," which was advertised immediately after the last episode aired, thus robbing the series of closure. /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif

The green-haired girl is Chigusa Sanjouin, the "villain" of the game. The pigtailed girl is the player character, who you name when you begin the game.

The Student Council members are all wearing their uniforms from the TV series, which (with the exception of Nanami's) are white with colored pants. It wasn't until the movie that they got colored jackets.

Ah HA! I thought it had something to do with a video game for some reason! I remember Ikuhara's little remark for the last episode commentary ^_^x

Thankyou very much Aqua, that put a three-year long nagging thought in my head to rest

[Helschadenfreude]

well I couldn't remember the uniform exactly and it looked different, so /images/graemlins/sweat200.gif Juri changing hair color/style makes a difference I guess.

Oh man, I knew that Utena was one of those shows that had people saying, "WTF", but this, and maybe the opera, increases the bizarreness of Utena. /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif
