Why I didn`t see this version of OP while watching the series?

@TheSnoopingMouse It's true that the relationship between Utena and Anthy can be interpreted in different ways, but it's hard to deny that there are slight yuri undertones, especially when it comes to Juri's feelings for Shiori and the way that the other characters mention about Utena 'loving' Anthy near the end of the series.

@Vheeri You're not wrong, exactly, but to say that's all it's about is to horrifically oversimplify an extremely complex, powerful anime that also deconstructs and subverts all of the themes you mentioned and more.

@Vheeri You're not wrong.

So... based off of the clips I've seen from AMV Hell, this is some sort of shoujo that focuses on love, power, sex, and over the top drama... am I wrong?

Utena needs a dub that doesn;t suck, the one we have is a 90's dub OH GOD... THE BLANDNESS.

Utena isn't a yuri... I mean, I spin around on rose petals with my friends of the same gender all the time...
but... the Movie is a whole other story...

@nonamexg18 I know this is an insanely old comment, but I'd like to add that Utena's quest to become a prince IS in fact the symbol of the good male character. She becomes that which she admires and comes to represent all of the things that the male characters lack. She's vain like Touga, selfish like Akio, jealous like Saionji, and a coward like Miki. By confronting all of these negative characters, she learns about herself and the masculine half of her nature.
