There is no series better than Shoujo Kakumei Utena!! Your Web site is really informative and kept up to date well. I can't wait for the Movie!!!PS I finally voted J so you can stop bugging me now.
11/30/1998 07:03:26
Nice place ya got here...
11/29/1998 12:11:36
Argh. I'm Australian. I love this site, and the poll is a very fun idea!!
11/23/1998 11:47:37
I started watching Utena because Takehito Koyasu is also the seiyuu for Zechs in Gundam W. I love how it's so stylized. I've taped the whole thing off TV!
11/22/1998 23:34:50
This web-site is the freshiest site ever
11/22/1998 20:16:50
I love Utena. it makes me think and the story has flourished my mind with ideas. I have never felt so good when Keiko finally slapped Nanami!! I also loved the duel with Kanae-san.
11/21/1998 21:01:55
Amazingly well done (dubbed ver.) I didn't know an anime existed until now.
11/19/1998 00:14:59
i was hooked after 5 mins. this show is GREAT! love your web site.
11/17/1998 03:14:46
I really like this show.... saw it on selve at suncoast and purchased it.... want to see more... do you know where i can get the rest of the collections??? thanks! Silver
11/13/1998 06:44:07
I love you, Juri-sama! (^_^) This is my revised vote in the poll now that I have seen the entire series. Amazing and startling show. I can't wait to see what is done for the Utena movie! This poll has been great fun! Thank you for running it. (Tom Mitchell, CompuServe's Anime & Manga Forum)
11/09/1998 22:21:58
The tapes have just come out so i've only seen the first four eps. but i really like the series. Cool characters and great songs.
11/06/1998 07:25:35
I really liked the series. I especially like the presentation of it.
11/03/1998 01:37:36
I loved Utena from the first day I saw the First Manga on the shelf of my Local book shop.The Manga and the Anime are so very Intresting.I have to say that Juri and Utena are my two Favorite Characters(I love them so much I have UFO catcher dolls of both of them).Utena is my Favorite show:-)I wish the Dub was better though. Juri's voice sounds really bad:-0
10/30/1998 06:32:22
Well, I only saw the first two episodes of "Utena" last weekend at a sci-fi convention -- English Dub, by the way -- and I'm already hooked! ^_^ Keep up the good work!
10/29/1998 21:04:55
Actually I have seen all Utena up to 15. Man oh man has this series gotten awesome, 14 and 15 were absolutely incredible. Kept me guessing.
10/29/1998 03:45:15
Uh, actually, I haven't watched up to 4, it's actually 3...but I read the rest and it seems cool! one major question. Are Utena and Anthy lovers? Cause no one mentions it so I thought they were good friends, but the pics and sometimes t he scripts seem to imply that they're lovers. I don't know, call my ignorant! Ja!
10/19/1998 16:28:02
I HATE to see how English version of Utena is going to be... I got the last manga volume 2 weeks ago, and..... I wish Ohtori Akio DIES!!! I've never hated any character so much in my whole entire life!!!! He is SOOOOOO sick!!!! %##@!! (gomen)
10/19/1998 01:33:08
The first question people will ask is.. how can you have favourite episodes which you haven't even seen yet? Well.. because I've seen video clips of them.. heard stories.. and read synopses. That's enough for me! ^_^ Second of all, Akio. I would have to agree with Ten'jou Utena's (utena@duellists.tj) views on Akio. There are many, and I'm sure they've already been said, so I'll just leave it at that. Hai, I'm a devil worshipper, and proud of it. ^_^ Plus.. Nanami-sama. *swoon* Many call her evil.. but I call her confident.. intelligent.. resourceful.. witty.. and many other wonderful things. I can't *BELIEVE* she's only considered a secondary character, for humour only.. Ghh.
10/16/1998 08:28:29
Utena is very impressive.
10/16/1998 02:56:21
I've watched this series in Chinese dubbed and Chinese subbed when I was on vacation. There's one thing: I'M CONFUSED!!^_^Aside from that, this is one of the best series I've watched. The music, plot, characters, animation are stunning. I especially liked the Black Rose part, and the duels were spectacular! Miki rules, imho.
10/14/1998 04:03:49
happy!
10/12/1998 06:06:15
I love Utena so much I think I'm her. This is the best sit because it was the first and it has the most info.
10/10/1998 06:09:58
In truth, I've only watched the horribly dubbed American version. Sorry! (But thank you AOL for giving access to our pink-haired heroine! :D)
10/08/1998 22:45:03
i am on the utena ML :) woo woo
10/08/1998 22:32:50
There's just something about Saionji in an apron. . .
10/07/1998 18:21:06
I enjoyed this poll alot, however I think that it is kind of pointless to take a vote for a least favourite music. I believe there cannot be such thing in Shoujo Kakumei Utena. Also with the music section, I think you should include BGM's, such as Temptation from OST#3. That's my favourite Utena music. Also, and again, congratulations for the page. I may be an anime devotee for a short while, but Utena has surely been one of the things I most cherished. The Illusion wonders me. Keep up the good work!

I've been a fan of this show for a few months now, though I just saw my first episode recently. I have the entire series, but I've only seen up to episode 13, I can't wait to finish it. I've been using this extremely helpful page to read the scripts before watching. I love Juri-san and Utena-sama, wouldn't they make a kawaii couple? ^_-

this is a really good show...........i was wondering if you could e-mail me back, because i'm making my own webpage, and i need info on some anime, especially this one.........thank you, and so far, this is the best website that i've seen for Utena
10/06/1998 16:07:07
This is my favorit utena site!
10/05/1998 19:24:03

It's a fun page.

10/03/1998 20:05:37
I love Ruka... and Touga!!!!
10/01/1998 23:12:05
I'm so glad this title has been acquired! (Utena is quite possibly my all-around favorite character in anime, television, books, etc.) She's a strong person but not completely jaded- she's just innocent and pure-hearted enough to make her very likeable. The whole series sends a great message about friendship and the importance of having dreams and hope. The ending was so...inspirational! Well, enough gushing. Yay, Utena!

Great page.. lots of good choices on the poll page ^_^
9/30/1998 22:58:02
Ganbatte Utena-sama!
9/28/1998 06:07:34
Nicely laid out poll. Thankyou for the info on your web site. It made it easier to understand this great show in raw form. Can't wait till the box sets arrive in feb.
9/28/1998 04:37:55
To start: Utena-sama no Kettou no Shourisha and no fruity multi-colored haired student council psycho males are ever going to get one up over her either. So there. And "TRUTH" DOESN'T SUCK! All hail Oji Utena-sama!! ::bows down:: We love Juri to Anshii, too!! (or something) The end.
9/27/1998 23:26:53
This was a fun poll ^_^ My next question is where can I get the mp3s (or even wavs) of my favorite Utena songs like Rose&Release...^_^ We need some serious Utena site building out there. ~SaKuRa
9/27/1998 02:37:43
A truly marvelous series! I really loved it! It gave me a lot to think about and digest ^_^
9/27/1998 02:16:54
I had a tough time picking out just six of my favorite episodes... I liked nearly all of them.
9/27/1998 02:08:50
I really liked some of the background music as well, I wish that had been an option too.
9/27/1998 01:57:44
i wish some of the anime charas were in the manga esp the awesome black rose duelists
9/26/1998 22:52:40
This has got to be one of my all time favorite shows. Choosing my favorite episodes was really hard; there are so many good ones! Thanks for putting on this poll.
9/26/1998 19:11:14
"No matter what you say, it's just anime." Shut up. =D
9/26/1998 17:30:22
It was very hard to pick 6 favorite episodes out the the 39 because they were ALL so good.
9/26/1998 04:33:12
You might consider episodes like #33 your least favorite because they were difficult to watch, but didn't they make the show that much more compelling by injecting some real tension? And personally, my favorite character was Akio's car.
9/26/1998 03:12:11
I know most people are picking Akio as their least fav...but I just HATE Shiori. And the songs from the musical should have been included on the song list. How come everybody hates "Truth"?
9/25/1998 22:46:33
well, i haven't seen much of the animated series, but the various fanfics(esp. SKU extended) and the manga are stupendous. there, that's all.
9/25/1998 22:45:55
It was really hard for me to pick my favorite songs and episodes, partly because I haven't seen Utena in a little while, but also because I love so much about the show! It was also hard for me to choose between my least favorite characters: I couldn't decide between Akio-sanand Shiori-chan! I have to say that Shiori-chan comes in a VERY close second place. Does anyone else agree? Arrgh, I just HATE her with a passion! Sorry, had to vent. ^.^ But how could she be such a meanie to my beloved Juri-sama?
9/25/1998 19:13:04
It's quite hard to choose a 'least favorite' for most of these -- they're all so good! ;-) I just went with my feelings.
9/25/1998 18:12:57
Don't forget about the songs in the Musical...
9/25/1998 16:34:52
I kinda voted by memory because I haven't watched my Utena episodes for a while! Some votes were hard to determine because I love almost everything about the show! ^_^
9/25/1998 16:30:49
Awesome web page friend & stunning UTENA serie. I'am member of fansub club in Chile and we love UTENA, we are buying LD and with your script we made fansub....thanks for your effort in share UTENA wave. from Chile Claudio
9/25/1998 10:38:13
They should get the Banana Splits back together to do the opening theme for the dubbed version.
9/25/1998 04:21:10
Laaa... Utenasamaaa, why do they make your uniform so hard to draw? And as for you, Himemiya- kataru koto nashi da yo, omae ni wa.
9/24/1998 21:09:52
I didn't really have least favorites for some characters so I arbitrarily chose something to dislike ^^
9/24/1998 20:03:14
what a kick-ass show!
9/24/1998 15:32:44
choosing favorite episodes usually means choosing invidivual stories that appeal rather than those that fit into the main plot arc...and there were "two-parters" in there...
