- Basically I went on a crazy Utena kick after my video essay on my other channel @ noralities
and couldn't live until this was out of my system. I somehow made this in about a week, and was able to reuse some anthy frames from my essay.
The last utena animatic I did was more 50/50 split on anthy/utenas perspective but this one is almost entirely from anthys viewpoint. I think I've improved a lot since then, I've certainly gotten faster at animating.
I've always loved this song and knew I wanted to do an animatic for it, but never new what series or character to do with it until BAM

how does it feel knowing you've created one of the most important pieces of utena content to exist 😳
The beautiful animation style, the continuous references to other characters even though the focus is Utena and Anthy, the implication that Touga and Saoinji are secretly gay, this is the kind of content I need way more of in my life
Secretly?? They don't hide it well
Touga and Saionji... I am so obsessed with their particular brand of homoeroticism because it's like, they're so tied to each other and they have such incredible emotions but they also have to perform their masculine dominance and desire for/about girls and women, and like.... ugh the particular bisexuality that Touga and Saionji have, it's just... incredible. I love that fluid time in our lives where things weren't so defined and it's all so strange and weird and nebulous without needing distinction.
so beautiful.... but also "empty shampoo bottle, full garbage bag" made me laugh
People have no idea how much this show means to me.
Edit: It made me realize my relationship was toxic and helped me find a better partner
im not kidding when I say this is one of my favorite utena fanworks literally ever

Whenever Anthy was drawn without clothes it was so dark and horrifying. well done capturing emotions like that is difficult
THE GARBAGE BAG PART AND SHAMPOO PART AHAHAHHA I LOVED THATTTT
BUT YES THE ART IN THIS IS SO NICE!!!! I LOVE THIS SM OHMYGOD THE BEST SONG TO HAVE CHOSEN TO MAKE AN RGU BASED THING ON
This is my favorite part because I read somewhere it means something like: would you rather, a deep relationship that both knows their flaws or "dirty things" (full garbage bag) or a superficial relationship that everything appears to be perfect or "clean" (half shampoo bottle)
English is not my first language, sorry any mistakes
It’s so wonderful to see RGU content in 2020! This whole thing is so gorgeous, it’s perfectly made and I can’t stop rewatching
THIS IS BRILLIANT! YOU’VE STORYBOARDED THIS SO WELL THAT MY EYES WERE GLUED TO THE SCREEN AND USUALLY I JUST GET DISTRACTED AND BOP TO THIS SONG! Thank you so much for making this video!
Holy shit im obsessed with this???? I could write a whole essay on all the shot choices in this, the lyrics and how deliberately they were illustrated, the flat tone of the song that matches Anthy’s muted flat affect, the song choice as a whole my GOD, the stunning drawings- all of it rivals my old favorite Vocaloid PVs, and that’s saying something. Absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait to see what else you make
Utena's content is always appreciated~
I can't believe how good this is. All those references go so well with the lyrics and your art is so cute but with some "realistic" feeling because of their bodies. I got very emotional watching this. I think this is my favorite version of Therefore You and I.
I specially liked the part about avatars and the "as a result of not noticing", or the 1:21 part... What am I even saying, I loved every single second of it. Every time I watch it and notice something new, I fall even more in love with this~
Keep up the good work!
i finished utena like a month ago and omg, this show is incredible and i keep coming back to this animatic because it sums up the show perfectly
I finished Utena, I can finally understand this.
Congratulations
....on the revolution of your world
"you are love itself"
"????"
😳😍
...ok so tadanoco is probably my favorite producer, and i always have loved looking to see if people were making redraws with their songs to other media, but i stopped doing that a few years back bc it didnt really happen. and i always wished i had the time and energy to do it myself. and now today i see this video with one of my favorite songs with my favorite anime and big mood energy all over the place. this is incredibly nostalgic and really gets me in the heart. a lot. ...this is awesome haha.
The art, the symbolism, everything just sparks my mind in a good way
This is an absolutely fantastic companion piece to the series.
Okay
WHEN did I get this ring on my hand???
I've watched this approximately 3,000 times. Your art is so beautiful, and how you paired it up with the song so skillfully makes it so addicting. A lot of work and love went into this, and I can't emphasize enough how much it moved me.
In the end, all girls are like the rose bride
This song works so well for utena and this fanvid is so well done i keep coming back and watching it again and again and hurting my heart
Ooh this is good. I love how you used imagery from the show all throughout the video. Overall this really fits the surrealistic vibe of Utena, love to see it
This has only 150 comments ??? This is incredible omg, I knew that song but never realized how well it fits Utena, and the mv you drew is so so good !!! thank you so much for drawing all this !!
i cant put into words how beautifully composed this video is. the lyrics fit so well and the art is drawn so well and this is just such a perfect video i love it so much
YOOOO THIS IS AMAZING AND I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT 0:00 time to rewatch!!!!!
Thanks god, we need more Utena videos in the earth, also you have improved a lot!
this is incredible!!!! i feel like i need to rewatch this a couple more times frame by frame to parse out what's happening -- i'd never heard the song before but it fits really well and you did a great job with the timing
this is the best thing in the entire world
Wow.... this is INCREDIBLE..... the visuals are so striking and precise!! each pairing with the lyrics is perfectly matched!!! this is like the whole series in a video!!! I also love the art style, it's so... round and inviting. The expressions alone... damn.
Lovely. Every frame is so symbolic and perfect for the messages. Just like the show itself. Spectacular!
I come back to this all the time this is my favorite Utena animatic
omg the song fits so well with everything! the images, the trancición, the idea, is just great! everything was exactly where it has to be UwU you did a beautiful work!!
holy Shit that was SO COOL!!! this song fits so well and you used it perfectly! the art style rocks and god. the framing and the colors and the mood aughhhh
This is beautiful, and captures the beauty yet horrors that the show portrays
The way the lyrics match so well, and you paired all the right scenes to them, amazing direction!
I’ve literally been watching this video for days. It is now my current hyper fixation. It’s so good
HOLY COW this is so gorgeous and the thought put into the lyrics with the characters combined with the great artstyle this is just freaking fantastic
This is AMAZING! I love seeing how many people will never get over Utena ❤❤❤
absolutely adored this i loveed the pacing and the framing of the scenes. it's like u summed up anthy's arc and life through utena in a single vid
wonderful. perfect. aboslotely lovely. made me cry so much I had to stop the video several times becasue I couldn´t see through my tears.
IT'S WONDERFUL!
THIS IS SO FREAKING BEAUTIFUL I LOVE IT

This is so lovely and inspiring! I loved every single moment.
Loved every second of it, utena is so underrated and I love to see people making such amazing content of it 💙
Holy crap it's so nice to see high quality Utena content!
I adooore your art style so much, and I recognize all the frames from your Utena analysis video! :D really revolutionary (heh) re-usage of such emotional frames!! and honestly inspires me to make an animation meme/AMV centered on Anthy too once I have the motivation for it

1:28 and THERE YOU GO
Im Frying crying
Tbh I don't even know which fandom this is but the animation was *chef's kiss*
This reply is about half a year late, I know, but it’s from the anime Revolutionary Girl Utena! Most people know it for being gay (which it is) but it also deals heavily with themes of abuse and overcoming trauma, so I’d say you might want to look up trigger warnings before going in. Definitely a masterful show, though. 100% recommend.
My 5th time watching this. So addicting. Its a really beautiful video
