About the series
Published in Brazil by Editora JBC from 2008 to 2009, this 10-issue series adapts the surreal, revolutionary manga and anime saga Revolutionary Girl Utena. Known for its lush, symbolic art and psychological depth, the story follows a girl who, after a childhood encounter with a mysterious prince, enters Ohtori Academy and becomes entangled in a series of duels for the power to revolutionize the world. The series is a landmark of 1990s shōjo storytelling, exploring themes of identity, love, and societal roles, and remains beloved for its dreamlike narrative and subversive take on fairy-tale tropes.
