the people who think nanami or even saionji/touga fans are the crazies of the utena fandom have never spent time reading or watching anything made by juri/shiori fangirls. I mean deep respect to them they're doing god's work etc but they need specialist help

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

Any thoughts about Juri×Shiori or Nanami×Anthy (from Revolutionary Girl Utena)?

I can't believe I don't have anything on the first yet, something must have gotten lost in my inbox because I swear I've been asked that before.

Well.

Here we go.

Juri/Shiori

I have nothing to say that the show hasn't said for me. This is perhaps the second major relationship explored within the show, the primary focus of Juri's character development, and rivaled only by the focus on relationships such as Nanami and her brother, Miki and his sister, and Anthy and Akio.

We have several episodes dedicated to at first introducing the pair and their relationship to each other (along with a few misconceptions both had regarding each other), the turning on its head as we learned that oh no what Juri thought was going on was completely wrong, and the turning on its head in the finale as Juri has her last duel.

It's a well explored, provoking, and fascinating relationship to watch where the pair of characters both truly like, admire, and perhaps even love one another but Shiori is too insecure and terrified to ever accept that as a truth/something she will willingly make herself vulnerable fore and Juri in turn is too proud and noble to ever show enough chinks in her army (for all they do exist) for Shiori to ever truly accept her or her feelings.

It's a beautiful failed relationship that on the surface had little reason to fail and yet it had to fail because both characters were in the exact position where they could never make it work with one another.

One of them had to bend and neither could.

(Or at least, not until the end with the badminton moment with Utena, Juri, and Miki in which there's a silent acknowledgement that, you know, perhaps Juri and Miki should step away from their truly fucked up relationships with Shiori and Kozue respectively.

You know.

Maybe that would make things a little less weird around here.)

Basically, like pretty much everything in Utena, I love how it was portrayed but as the characters are, without serious growth (and perhaps that mysterious thing known as becoming an adult), I don't think it will ever work out between them.

Which is kind of the point the show was making.

Nanami/Anthy

I have the feeling you're asking me this because fandom must like it, since there was no real hint of it in the show. Good for fandom.

Personally, I don't see it.

Nanami ends her arc disgusted by Anthy and Akio, especially Anthy who enables Akio's every terrible action. Part of this is Nanami coming to recognize how she did quite similar things for her own brother, and where the road of incest leads, but point being she's one of the few characters who ends the series going "lol, these people are garbage, and you, Utena, like the taste of garbage"

Before that point, Nanami's world was confined to her brother the prince--and weird bullshit like laying an egg for no explained reason.

Anthy's interactions with Nanami are consistently fucking with her and playing along with her schemes to hurt and humiliate her as a part of her learned helplessness and eternal punishment.

It's very clear in the show that Nanami's not even close to what Anthy's looking for or what Anthy needs for that matter. (Utena is far closer in both respects, in that at first Anthy is looking for a prince archetype which Utena fills, almost, and then Utena becomes someone truly inspired to save her despite the pain to herself. Where Nanami--Nanami out, yo.)

And post series end, well, Anthy I imagine is looking for Utena and even if things go very sour there... that's the price of leaving Ohtori and one I think Anthy is ready to face up to.

Nanami's just not on the radar.
