She now has something to strive for, and Utena is that focal point. Though where Utena first in is confusing as well now. Oh well. I never thought about Utena like that, and it was a show that I was struggling to try and tie together. This might be one of the few pieces I've read that has been able to do that. :P I’d say that when Anthy’s free, she’s now the future, as there are endless possibilities for her to try and find Utena once she steps out of the school.

Unfortunately it's also a favourite anime that I can't say I truly understood - there were times when the shadow puppets made everything quite clear and others totally obscure (but they're awesome every time they appear :P). Thanks a lot for this post, it's helped me make a lot more sense of what I did like about the series which till now I could only attribute to gut instinct Ah, Utena has been a favourite of mine since I started watching it… Unfortunately it’s also a favourite anime that I can’t say I truly understood - there were times when the shadow puppets made everything quite clear and others totally obscure (but they’re awesome every time they appear :P).

Since I saw it I've been thinking of the show as one that had a lot of symbolism, but none of which had a very thorough sense to me, which you've pulled together nicely.
