5.0 out of 5 stars The Revolution is here!, November 12, 2003

By 

End of the World (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Revolutionary Girl Utena - Finale (Vol. 10) (DVD)

Finally, after the long wait, Utena Finale is here. I know I've been waiting a long time to see it, as well as thousands of other Utena fans. This DVD is awesome, and a must have for any Utena fan who is dying to know what happens at the end.

I loved this DVD because it was consistant with the others, had a good ending and just made me love Utena all that much more. The artwork and music were incredible as always (The final duel music was soooooo cool), but it was really the plot that shone through this time. Finale ties up all the loose ends about the duels, the rose bride, princes and princesses, and the revolution. It brings together the symbols and mysteries that have left us guessing until the very end.

Besides a great ending, the Finale DVD also has some...special features, and some drool-worthy scenes of Touga and Saionji. I won't give the ending away, but I will tell you that there IS a revolution. If you really love and truly understand Utena, you can understand the ending that much more. One last clue to help you understand the ending; think of Ohtori academy as it's own world. There is the real world, and then there is Ohtori world. They are two very separate places. Remember that. (Anyone who has seen the movie probably caught on to that! See the movie too! It's a beautiful, artistic, re-telling of Utena.)

If you love Utena you definately must watch this DVD! You'll never find out about "End of the World" if you don't. ^_^

---For the revolution of the world!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ending of Utena, November 13, 2004

Wow. Just... wow...
This ending proves that Utena is NOT just a slightly messed up Shojou melodrama...
If you can't handle extreme disillusionment and cynicism, however, shut your eyes tight and don't watch this ending...

5.0 out of 5 stars Utena! Utena! Utena?, December 21, 2003

By 

Julia Precourt (Shelburne, Vt. United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Revolutionary Girl Utena - Finale (Vol. 10) (DVD)

It's The END! the long awaited finale of Utena. I personally found these last three episodes outstanding, clearing up most of my questions from the show. But don't expect a clear and obvious awnser, it will take some thought, reviewing of episodes #9, #12, #13 and the end of the black rose saga. But it's worth it, and thats what Utena makes you do, think!
To others this ending will be a major let down, leaving you wondering why, how, and what the f***! But to those I recommend, just thinking back through out the show, pay attention to little details, and remeber, not everything has a meaning, some of the things in that show are just in it for the sake of being in it.

All and all a great ending to a great show!
