UTENA IS NOT GAY

Hexartes

NOTHING GAY ABOUT UTENA AT ALL

Calica

people actually believe this somehow

Utena was arrested in a Minneapolis airport men's bathroom during a police sting operation cracking down on solicitation of sexual contact in Minneapolis airport men's bathrooms.

Calica

uh utena's in a lesbian relationship

Odradek

SNAKE AND OTACON ARE JUST GOOD FRIENDS WHO WORK CLOSELY TOGETHER ON THE BATTLEFIELD

Calica

at any rate let's live our lives heroically, let's live them with style

I think we all agree Juri is really gay tho

Sredni Vashtar

Yeah, Juri's pretty darn gay, or at least bisexual, and that latter one's pretty dubious.

On the other hand, Utena and Anthy definitely have something going on by the end of the series, even if it is only platonic. It's definitely more intense than a normal friendship.

Are we not talking about Juri from Street Fighter 4?

I thought we were talking about Street Fighter 4...

Yarrun XIX

Which is to say, the Juri I was thinking of is also pretty darn gay/bi. But it's in the stereotypical vamp way, so not the best example?

Yarrun XIX

Also, I never really read Solid Snake as gay.

Big Boss, yeah, but not Snake.

Yarrun XIX

But I guess that would explain the poster bit in MGS2

Sredni Vashtar

Juri in Revolutionary Girl Utena pines after a girl who envies and manipulates her despite not only recognising the crush late in the game, and may or may not have had a thing with a guy who becomes a douchetacular pawn in said game after the fact.

This makes some sense in context earlier and much better sense at the very end.

Also, Juri is very cool. Kind of a jerk, but genuinely fascinating and ultimately way too good for the people she has fought for.

I liked Juri better when she was named Jolyne Kujo

^^ I quite liked Miki, too. He was a normal guy who just happened to be romantically attracted to his sister, which had the unfortunate side-effect of getting him wrapped up in everybody else's mind games.

Juri x Shiori and Miki x Kozue are still my OTPs, no regrets

they just need need a deep, long, psychiatric talk, Shiori and Kozue much more so

The scene with Miki and Touga with his open shirt is just hilarious. I mean, wow dude. Wow.

Calica

Touga is a grade-A asshole, really.

Sredni Vashtar

Well, there are those moments at the very end where he comes out of his creeper trance and stops acting like a sociopath, and a few hints earlier on that he's not all that he pretends to be. But for most of the series, he really, really is.

But that scene is still absolutely delicious.
