Hey, since Crunchyroll has removed Utena from its catalog just in time for Pride month, here's your reminder that the whole series is free to watch on Youtube! (Thanks to Nozomi Entertainment for being good about keeping up their official hosting.)
Revolutionary Girl Utena (Sub) and (Dub)
Now's a great time to watch a classic queer anime that's shaped the entire genre!
Some warnings below the cut, because it's also tragic and you might not want to go in unaware... It's so worth it though!
If any of these would be a major problem for you, I'd recommend looking up a more specific spoiler/trigger list. Utena is a great show, and is very much bringing all of it up to show how horrible and damaging it can be, but also, it can be a lot for that same reason. :)
Here’s to my family’s annual christmas eve tradition of exchanging new pajamas, & to my mother’s parallel tradition of attempting to shame me every year by making into a t-shirt, quote, “The most egregious thing that you, my daughter , thought it was okay to say during a nice family dinner” . This apparently was my worst offence of 2021
okay okay I know the point of this is “White people need to put as much effort into learning how to pronounce Black people’s names as they do foreign European names” and 100% I totally agree, absolutely good point
but this tweet becomes hilarious in the context of this clip:
anyways, absolutely put effort into learning how people pronounce their names. just don’t feel bad if it takes you some time to get it right 😅
(also in case you didn’t watch the video it’s “N-SHOO-tee” not “SHOO-tee”)
