Ask me my fannish Top Five [whatevers]. Any top fives. Doesn't matter what, really! And I will answer them all in a new post in the comments of this post, because I am lazy.
Also, as an anime fan, I have a confession to make. I have never watched Revolutionary Girl Utena (I've seen the movie and bits of the series, but I never sat down to watch the whole thing.) However, Rightstuf is currently releasing the series and I finished watching the Student Council and The Black Rose saga is suppose to be releashed on in August, which I do plan to preorder.
So far, I'm enjoying the series, I know it gets a lot more darker later one, but it will be an interesting contract to how INSANE and CRACK some of the earlier episodes are.gullwhacker is still laughing about those elephants from the body switching curry episode and I found Touga/Crispin Freeman punching a kangaroo quite enjoyable to watch.
Also, I will say that you can tell how a lot of people that worked on Utena were the ones to later work on Star Driver. Star Driver might not have as many mysterious and double meanings (there are some, but not as many as Utena I find) but it does carry the same style and feel that Utena does. Plus, Vice is revealed to actually has a purpose while Chu Chu just seems to be there to be random. XP
