We continue Pride Month by watching the 1997 anime Revolutionary Girl Utena! Instead of dreaming of marrying a prince when she grows up, Utena is determined to be a prince herself. She dons a masculine uniform at school and challenges a member of the mysterious Student Council to a duel to defend her friend's honor. She wins the duel --and her prize is being betrothed to the magical Rose Bride.
We discuss the glamorous character designs, the surreal dream logic, the apocalypse song, the business monkey, and Our Flag Means Death.
