Revolutionary Girl Utena #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume continues the surreal and symbolic saga of Utena Tenjou, a girl who aspires to become a prince, as she delves deeper into the duels for the Rose Bride, Anthy Himemiya. Collecting the next chapters of the manga adaptation, it follows Utena's encounters with the Student Council and the mysterious power of the sword that emerges from Anthy's heart. The story explores themes of identity, love, and transformation within the elaborate, fairy-tale-like setting of Ohtori Academy.
In "To Plant," Utena faces escalating tension as Saionji confronts her at a party over Anthy, then must endure a high-stakes duel with Juri. Touga's unsettling advances and a sudden encounter with Miki's fiercely protective twin, Kozue, add further pressure—especially when Utena and Miki are forced into a duel with Kozue held hostage. Written by Chiho Saito, Lillian Olsen, Fred Burke, and Be-Papas, and illustrated by Chiho Saito with inks by Steve Dutro, this 2002 Viz issue delivers a tense, emotionally charged chapter in the series. The cover, a striking collaboration by Chiho Saito and Hidemi Sahara, captures the story’s mood with striking precision.
