- The Musical: Revolutionary Girl Utena
December 17-29, 1997, Hakuhinkan Theater, Tokyo
Director/Screenplay: Yuji Mitsuya
Utena: Yû Daiki ~ Anthy: KaNNa
Touga: Saito Rei ~ Juri: Sanae Kimura
This is taken from the Extras disc of the Japanese Blu-Ray. As such, it's a significant improvement over previously available VHS transfers, though it is the same recording, complete with someone walking in front of the camera during Dios' bit!
The subtitle track is based on the subtitles provided on the other copy available on CZcams uploaded in 2012 by GladysKn1ght, and I apologize for stealing that, and I can't for the life of me recall where the translation came from otherwise? However, the lyrics where available were changed to the translations done by Verthandi for OST 5 recordings of the songs where available, and timing and several bits and pieces of the translation were altered by me to better suit the terminology we are used to. I also straight up changed Saionji's line to match the stupid 'lovebirds' thing he says in the series because I love it so. [Subtitles last updated: Nov 28, 2017]
Thank you everyone who donated to bring this monstrosity to the internet in the high quality it deserves. I invite feedback regarding the translation/subtitles.
PS. This performance coincided with the CHRISTMAS EVE airing of the last episode of Utena and that's just like...HOW.
Enjoy!! :) - Giovanna & Yasha, @ ohtori.nu
(PS. The CZcams transfer does seem to degrade the video a little bit compared to my raw copy, which may end up available elsewhere in time.) - Zábava
Akio coming in like he's the noble mentor doomed to die in the next arc is such a crack concept and I kinda love it.
same its so funny
@@anhane6133 Also he's wearing a scrunchie, which is hilarious all on its own
@@EveryDayALittleDeath HE IS thats great jskgdkbn
I have to admit it was cool to see them sing the "absolute destiny apocalypse" song, they sounded just like in the show!
The part where Utena boops Anthy on the nose is the cutest thing I've ever seen!
Indeeeed!!!
Time stamp, pleaseee?
@@happysingingpeople4859 24:12 :)
Woahhhh, Anthy's actress literally looks exactly how I pictured her character. I've never seen an anime character so perfectly translated into reality, like her hair? So cool
Are you ironic?
@@topolino026 I don't recall Anthy being that pale, personally, but if they think she fits, that's just their opition.
Sanae Kimura (the actress playing Juri) also played Sailor Uranus in the Sailor Moon musicals. Sanae Kimura playing dramatic lesbians since 1994.
Everyone is talking about Anthy's voice but Jury's voice is also pretty
If I have one problem with this, it's that they didn't unclude her anime backstory. I know it's different in the manga but I'd love to have seen the actress get at least a couple of lines about Shiori
Hey ever notice that the roses pinned on the breast are symbolic of a classic groom's likewise the bells at the end of a duel are symbolic of wedding bells it's made much more obv here tho
omg
I NEVER NOTICED THAT HOLY SHIT
Indeed no heterosexual explanation of this
You can also have bells rung during or after funerals. “By all means, stay in your cosy coffin.”
OMG Himemiya's voice!!
Right? It doesn't even sound like she's singing live but she is!!!!!!!!!!!
there is just no heterosexual explanation for this
HAKSJKKKKKKKKK MORRI
na---- juri was literally become heterosexual dude （I nearly wanna cry----
explanations rarely fuck
It's Utena.
It only needs the gay explanation.
I am still sad that we didn't get this on the American DVDs. I've had a raw of it since getting the fansubs on VHS back in 2000 or 2001. It's the only VHS I kept once I bought the box sets. This musical literally got me through college - it was my go-to happy place when I was stressed or upset. Thank you so much for making this available. I'd forgotten just how much I love it!
This is even gayer than the series. I love it ♥
IKR????
This compels me to watch it even more now
This is fantastic. Everyone did such a great job, especially Utena and Himemiya, but the mannerisms of those who played the men like Touga were really incredible too. Can we get the car photography scene? 😆

This doesn't include some stuff but it's mostly for my own reference
The flashbacks I'm having right now to watching this endlessly on VHS with no subtitles. It's the only anime thing I bought myself back in middle/high school, I sponged off my friend for the rest. Except for Chuchu I honestly love it (though I wish they all had a voice as gorgeous as Anthy's here).
Wakaba's song is so catchy, its bubbly, just like her!
You can actually see the smoke coming of Akio’s cigarette. That’s really impressive considering this was filmed in the 90’s
utena's face during the anthy's solo= *confusion in bisexual*
Looking at the dislikes, 8 people are not men/women of culture and are unfit to Revolutionize the World.
LOL
Other than that, I see over 1.1K likes and know that there are many of us who love Live stage musicals of our fav Anime from the 90s.
Wow Anthy's voice is so amazing!! and I love Utena and Anthy's acting &singing , I cried at the End.
I can't believe they made Juri straight.
This comment made me realise this and made me crumble to dust while eating in the kitchen, holding the counter for support at 3 AM
@@hat7475 I’m sorry!! I can’t believe they did that though
to be fair, Juri has a crush on Touga in the manga. That's probably where they pulled it from
They do it in the manga, too. I don’t like it. It’s so antithetical to her character. She’s all about *unrequited* love. That makes sense with Shiori. With Touga? How am I supposed to believe that two wealthy popular kids are star-crossed lovers?
I always like to pretend that the “love” here is a reference to the boy who drowned heroically rescuing another kid. Juri mentions this kid in the show and, in the movie, Touga is cast as the boy. Juri’s surname has etymological connections to rivers… it all fits. So yeah, whenever I see them rewriting Juri as into Touga I just try to think about her being attached to him through that platonic lens. It makes it easier for me to work what I’m seeing and reading into the larger Utena narrative, of which Juri is basically always gay.
@@marrusorthocanna1897
Yeah, *but* it is worth noting that the manga was written by Chiho Saito. She also worked on the show as an artist.
However, while she has re-iterated her tolerance for homosexual relationships, she was skeptical of Ikuhara’s decision to include WLW relationships in the show. Her perspective was that the show was for *girls,* and *most girls are straight,* so making characters canonically gay would disassociate the audience from the characters. And, thus, the general anti-gender role message. She even threatened to leave the show’s team if Ikuhara pushed the matter in the show. That’s partially why the show relies on subtext and the movie is explicit - Ikuhara was willing to compromise artistically because he valued Chiho’s artistry.
All of this is to say that Chiho clearly had a vision for the show that differs from Ikuhara. She wasn’t cool with canonical on-screen gayness in the show, and so it makes sense that she would retroactively censor things in her manga re-telling.
I don’t agree with her artist decisions - and I suspect most would agree with me - but I still respect her. She is an accomplished professional woman and artist during a difficult period in Japan’s modern history. You gotta give her props for trying to make something aesthetically engaging for girls.
However, I think the message of the story is the same, regardless of how you read the nature of the dyad. Like, Juri *cares* about people like Touga. I think that’s the main takeaway. Regardless of whether it’s platonic or because he was the drowned boy or it’s romantic or whatever. The *point* is that she’s more tenderhearted than she seems.
Wow the actress that plays Anthy has a beautiful voice...........
The Shadow Girls song is a bop tbh
The part with the Shadow Girls had me going! lol "Two plus two equals eight!" "Why was Six afraid?" "Because Seven ate Nine!" I saw what they did there. :D
but like... I'm curious, since that jokes subtitled either eight/ate are also homonyms in japanese or there's some sorta similar saying that indirectly translated? idk
@@user-qn5fz2lo3e i was about to say the same. How does that translate over to Japanese?
@@user-qn5fz2lo3e The japanese puns are based on homonyms of numbers and English words transcribed in Japanese. They literally say:
“One plus one equals three (三san)
San (サン) means the sun (太陽taiyou) right?
Feels bright…
Wow, dazzling!
Two plus two equals five (五go)
Go (ゴ) means let’s go (行けike)
We don’t have a choice, do we?
What? In what way?”
Sorry this is a very literal translation and thus feels very awkward…
Obviously the puns are lost in translation, so it’s nice that whoever did the subs kept the spirit of the number-based silly jokes!
I got goosebumps when they sang "Sekai wo Kakumei Suru Tame Ni 4:00". Before this, I just only listened this song's cd version (奧井雅美ver.) and I love this song so much. 😍😍😍
After watching this, I realized this song is originally from this opera show~~ Amazing~~👍👍👍
Probably watched this over ten times over the years, just Never get sick of it. It's art
anthy's actress have a really beautiful voice, goodness
Anthys voice is Incredible
Yes^^
I had to look up who was playing dios/akio, because they were just too good, and I was right! Gou Mayuka was a Takarazuka otokoyaku!

Yay! No longer must I watch this is vhs quality! Praise!
Es domingo muy temprano por la mañana, y aquí estoy viendo un musical de Utena que no sabía que existía, sin subtitulos, sin entender ni una palabra... Pero estoy más feliz que un niño en jugueteria.
"Come Utena, my prince! - Come, Anthy, by bride!" That made me cringe so much. And Touga and the Prince agreeing that "there's nothing more, wink wink" kinda meant that the patriarchy is not threatened by lesbians who reproduce heterosexual dynamics.
Compared to the series, this final felt like a defeat.
Yeah, the musical was basically the anime if it was just season 1 with a random Akio cameo at one point. Which I mean, I get why they did that, I'm surprised they even managed to stuff one whole season in there.
Still, it's kinda funny how completely antithetical to the actual anime this is, even if it's a very nice performance. I think the Utena manga actually did something similar so maybe they based it on that
@@Fannintendociccio1 We're on the same wavelength here. I also enjoyed the hell out of this musical. The format just came at a cost.
Didn't know that about the manga. Tried to buy it to check it out some time ago, but couldn't cuz old stuff. Maybe I won't try again in the future.
@@izellets7361 ah ehy there again, so yeah from what I've heard the original manga had the whole thing played straight, aka Utena truly becoming a prince for anthy. Also various characters aren't a thing, shiori for example, and nanami was just a photograph lol. Another commentator mentioned Juri having a thing for touga in the manga and this musical actually I think mentions it at one point? So that's probably another hint they used the manga more. The natural hair colors is another thing in common
I've read the other day the manga they did a couple years ago for the 20th anniversary which seem to follow up on the anime specifically after everyone has graduated and it seems to be good, I'd suggest looking it up online, there's just a small thing in it I'm not entirely sure of but otherwise a nice send off to the student council people.
After commenting on this video here I've actually found 2 WAY longer musicals on CZcams of Utena, 2 hours each that go through the first and then second season, I've just seen a couple of clips but it seems to have double budget and way more fidelity to the anime so definitely check it out. I'm just super sad there isn't one for Utena opening anthy's coffin finale :(
“Lesbians who reproduce heterosexual dynamics”. Oh, *shut up.* By definition all lesbian relationships have homosexual dynamics. This is just so absurd.
Thanks to CZcams, this kind of gem is here for everyone to watch.
36:19 her dancing in those heels is just astounding and terrifying all at once
ANTHY IS SO CUTE HOLY F U CK AND HER VOICE IS JUST AMAZING!!!
To bad the singer has retired...
Ok so this is my fav anime & i never knew this musicals existeduntil thus day. Thank you for uploading
Thanks for uploading this! I didn't know this existed until recently and it is a marvel, lol.
There is no heterosexual explanation for 25:11
Just gals being pals
there is no heterosexual explanation for Utena as a whole haha
Oh come on. Something happened between her and the Indian guy in the anime, right?
Hahah ahh ahaha
@@firiaerdegard7970 Bisexual is still not heterosexual
this anime has me fascinated. This musical was lovely
you are a blessing thank you for posting this
This is so clean holy Nanami!
これは、アニメのビデオの映像特典として入っていました。でも、内容を短縮されてたのが残念。
Thanks for sharing! Amazing stuff
THank you so much again!
wou rei saito , my favorite sailor pluto of sera myu .
And Sanae Kimura - the first Haruka!
Why aren't we talking about Dio's actress😭😭 ik she was in the play so briefly but UGHH...
Utena and Anthy
Chuchu surprised tf out of me
YAAAS! I love this! I have a question, the actress who plays Utena is the same that did the voice in the anime? Because the voice is very similar!
She is not! This lady is a Takarazuka alumni, with the screen name Yu Daiki. Utena's voice actress for the series is Tomoko Kawakami, who is, unfortunately, no longer with us. The Blu-ray includes a tribute to her.
Thanks for the info!
I am a bit disappointed that it didn't include a lot of the events near the end of the original Utena. :/
This covered the Student Council Arc of the anime series.
Akio was here, so I got all excited for a big dance-off...and then realized there was like 5 minutes left. T_T
I wish the cast had gotten to do the other arcs like the latest Sera Myu musicals did.
Beautiful
Rei Saito Sanae Kimura they are just gorgeous😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩
Absolute Destiny Apocalypse at 9:15
the Touga actresses' voice is purple sex chocolate and she has me absolutely captivated🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Can someone upload Bud of the White Rose? The ONLY place that had it (Empty Movement At Night tmblr) doesn't exist anymore. I knew I should have kept. And I see that finding the Black Rose arc will also be impossible...
hey ik im three years late but its on here! it's called utena white bud slime tutorial by leo
The woman dancing at 16:46 is adorable hahah!
I love Sanae Kimura 💕
This covered the first arc. Are there musicals to cover the other four?
💕💕💕💕💕👏👏👏¡BRAVOOOOOO! 👏👏👏👏💕💕💕💕💕
The way this show started... caught me so off guard. Not in a bad way, but still
Homer Simpson is in the audience thinking.
Homer: 'Wait a minute, something's wrong with this place. Oh no, this theater doesn't have a fire emergency exit'. "Enjoy your death trap."
Utena stares at the person exiting the theater.
Utena: "What's her problem?"
Yaassss
Dios bless you!
RAYO CONFUSO DONDE ESTA RAYO CONFUSO AUXILIO POR FAVOR
i wish someone would post the clipped songs >:| i wanna listen to soft lesbians on loop
oh shoot bestie I GOT you! so go to the search bar and type” revolutionary girl utena girls season”
A Channel by the name Mary has uploaded that song and all the others
hope that helped😋✨
Hell yeah
I love you
2:40-2:46 me on a maths test lol
You could at least credit my channel for having ripped off my translation :/ I spent a lot of work on it
I just noticed that you are credited in the video at 58:05 for the translation, if that’s any consolation.
WHOA yea you should totally be getting credit, why isnt this top comment
damn
That sucks! Thanks for the translations! I especially like how you adapted the puns in the Shadow Girls song!
Não entendo nada e mesmo assim me emociono
br ta em todo lugar impressionante
assiste ai uthena a garota revolucionária , mt bom
Best Utena
Akio ohhhhhhhh so cool
I love wakaba
waooo this is pretty cool
I would like to ask your permission to share this clip on my Twitter, please. I'm going to introduce this Anime to my friends.
Kimura Sanae diosa
anyone know the full name of the actress for Anthy? I tried searching up KaNNa but another person keeps showing up. Would love to see her other works
zettai unmei mokushiroku sounds soooooó good
Why u no pink hair ToT
I'm guessing that the girl playing Utena is a known singer who the producers wanted to remain recognizable; she does have a pink streak.
Everyone's hair was dyed, rather than it being wigs. It was a bit jarring until I looked closely and saw that, yes, everyone had a tint to their hair like their anme counterparts.
@@ingonyama70 that's awesome! :0
does anyone have the script for this or something
just the lyrics to the songs works too
So obviously Sanae and Rei I recognise from SeraMyu, but I swear the person playing Akio here was in the Myus too. Anyone know who she is?
never been to myu, her name is Gou Mayuka
@@harukaru84 I was so sure she was Yuga Yamato, she looks and sounds EXACTLY like her in the Tuxedo Mask role.
I guess that wouldn't make sens;e this musical was over 20 years ago.
@@ingonyama70 Gou Mayuka is from class 64, Yuga is from class 81 there is about 20 years difference in seniority between them.
Also some random trivia: Katsuragi Nanaho who plays Saionji is from class 73, and she has also done the Japanese voice of Setsuka in the Soul Calibour games
@@ingonyama70 I thought it was Yuga at first too!!
34:09 smooth like butter
Oh myyyyyyyy *y*
Its good but the only song i rlly liked was zetai unmei and the shadow puppet one
does anyone know the name of the actress who played Juri? I want to look her up
Sanae Kimura
Noice
is this by takarazuka?
no, but 3 former members of it are playing in this
I don't really understand why juri just suddenly become heterosexual (and it's not the main point, the main point was-----
why u always just fall in love with some jerks juri🥺？？？？
in the manga, juri likes touga
@yorgi i know but i mean why juri always fall in love with some jerks???
@@lulu5689 true 😭
Todas son mujeres?

Lindo demais
mb
Parece bastante bajo presupuesto
Con la de rosas de plástico que han tirado, ¿cómo puedes decir eso?
Mejor que la versión anime, lo tenía que decir y se dijo.
wait why is dios white?
Que mamada 😂
I'm sorry but some of them can't sing so far the only good voice is Anthy...
I agree, but please remember that singing loudly is already a lot of hard work and here, they have to do that while dancing and moving. It requires a lot of training and skill to keep your diaphragm and vocal chords stable and strong.
