voice Once upon a time... voice ...there was a princess grieving over the deaths of her mother and father. voice Before this princess appeared a prince traveling upon a white horse. Utena Who's that? Dios A witch. Utena A witch? Dios The Rose Bride. Utena The "Rose Bride"? Dios She sacrificed herself to save her beloved Prince. Dios Even though she was the only one who truly loved the Prince... Dios And what's more, the Prince who loved her was no longer the Prince she knew, but instead... Dios he became the Ends of the World. Utena Save her! Utena Save her... Dios You're such a gentle child. Thank you for your tears. Dios The only one who can save her is a Prince she believes in. Dios I can't become her Prince. Utena Then I'll become a Prince! Dios If you can retain that nobility even when you grow up, Dios you may indeed be able to save her from her eternal suffering. Dios But you will surely forget all about this night. Dios And even if you do remember, you're a girl. Dios Soon you'll become a lady. Utena I will! I'll become a Prince no matter what! Dios Then that ring will surely lead you here again. text The Love that Blossomed in Winter Akio Finally, the next Duel will determine who will Revolutionize the World. Touga Yes, that's about the size of it, isn't it. Akio Will that be Tenjou Utena? Or will that be you? Utena I will! I'll become a Prince. Anthy Is something the matter? Utena Himemiya, I... Anthy Yes? Utena No...never mind. Anthy You look a little pale... Utena Sorry. I'm being a little strange. Utena There's something I just can't seem to remember... Utena ...like a dream I saw at dawn. Anthy Ah, you're talking about a dream? Utena A dream? Anthy Isn't it? Utena Well...it might be. Utena I don't know for sure, but I feel like I promised somebody something important. Utena Hey, Himemiya. Show me your face. Utena Could it be you, and me... Akio Ah, here you are. Utena Akio-san. Utena Did you need something? Akio Well, I heard you weren't feeling too well lately, Akio So I thought I might invite you on a stroll or something to help you feel better. Utena Me? Akio Would that be a problem? Utena No, of course not. Akio Good. Oh, may I borrow Utena-san, Anthy? Anthy Yes, brother. Akio Then, Utena-san, shall we depart? Utena You sure, Himemiya? Anthy Yes. Utena Then, see you in a little while. Anthy See you later. Akio Thank you for always being nice to my sister. Utena Not at all. I mean, we're friends. Akio "Friends"...is it? Akio If that thought should last forever... Akio I was just thinking it would be nice if you and Anthy remained friends forever. Utena Well, of course. Akio The red poppy is native to Southern Europe, and is also known as Gubijin flower. Akio There's a legend that they grew on the spot where Gubijin, who was loved by Kouu, was buried long ago. Akio Because of that, in the language of flowers...is something wrong? Utena Um, no. I just thought that all you knew a lot about was stars. Utena But you know a lot about plants too. Akio I wouldn't say a "lot". Utena So what do red poppies mean in the language of flowers? Akio In the language of flowers, the red poppy means... Touga And what are your intentions? Akio Regarding what? Touga You seemed to be getting along pretty well with Tenjou Utena. Akio Oh, are you worried about her? Touga Well, I'm worried. Akio How are you worried? Touga She's my important opponent in the Duels. I was planning on undermining her a bit. Akio Really? In that case that's perfect. Can I entrust something to you? Touga What would that be? Akio I want you to deliver a present to her. Akio I don't care what. You choose something suitable. Touga You sure you don't want to choose it yourself? Akio I don't mind. After all, you're the playboy. Akio Choosing presents should be right up your alley. Touga You don't know her as well as I thought. Touga You can't sway her that way. Touga Actually, I gave her a present as a dress before, but she wasn't the sort to be moved by gifts. Akio Have you forgotten? Akio She's the kind of girl who treasures an old ring given to her by a man whose name she doesn't even know. Touga That's true. That's the thing that binds her. Akio Well, no matter. Akio Do whatever you want. I'd like to see how you handle things. Akio But don't forget about the present. Tell her it's from me. Touga This is a game, isn't it? Akio Yes indeed. Touga Tenjou-kun! Utena Yes! Mr. President... Touga I wish you wouldn't make that face at me so quickly. Touga You must really hate me. Wakaba Damn straight she does. Utena Do you need something from me? Touga I was asked to give you this by the Chairman. Utena By Akio-san? Wakaba Wow, how pretty! Utena Akio-san gave these to me? Touga Yeah. Wakaba That's awesome, Utena! Utena But...can I really accept these? Utena Besides, these aren't me. Wakaba What're you talking about? Sure they are! Wakaba Try them on. Utena It won't work...cut it out. Wakaba It will too work. See? Wakaba That's cool. Utena No, that's not what I'm talking about, but... Wakaba You being bashful? Wakaba I am TOO jealous, you little tramp! Utena That hurt, Wakaba! Touga Tenjou-kun, could you come with me for a bit? Touga There's something I'd like to consult you about. Utena Um...consult me? Utena Don't you have the wrong person? Touga I'm sorry. There's something I really want you to hear. Touga Please, Tenjou-kun. Wakaba Don't buy it for one second. Wakaba He might do something terrible to you again. Utena But... Wakaba Geez! You're too soft! Wakaba Just don't go anywhere dark alone with him. Utena What's that supposed to mean? Utena Didn't you wanna consult me about something?! Touga Don't get impatient. It's true I want to talk with you. Utena Hey, don't be so reckless! Touga Tenjou-kun, I guess being an all-around athlete like you doesn't include horseback riding. Utena Of course it doesn't. There aren't that many people who ride. Touga Really? Touga But don't horses go hand in hand with the Prince you admire so much? Utena What're you trying to say? Touga Who knows. Utena You dummy, cut it out! Akio That was a bit of a close call. Utena Akio-san.
Akio But thank goodness. I always ride this course. girl Um...um... girl Won't you read this for me? girl I've admired you for so long...um...and so...err, I... girl How should I put it... Touga Thank you. Your earnestness is wonderful. Touga Kiryuu Touga, the playboy Student Council President...is it? Touga "Playboy" sounds old-fashioned. Saionji Oh, it's you. Touga I wanna spar. Saionji Something happened to you. Touga Nothing happened. Saionji Liar. That confidence is gone from your sword. Touga Oh really?! You sound so smart, Saionji. Touga You know that much about me? Saionji Hell yes. You're arrogant and haughty, and full of confident ambition. Touga Hey now, that's not a nice thing to say. Saionji That's the kind of guy you are. You play the gentleman, Saionji but you've never really loved anyone, and you see everyone else only as pawns to be controlled. Saionji That was your strength. Saionji But can that sword of yours defeat her now? Touga You're talking too much. You'll leave yourself open. shadow I wonder I wonder, do you know what I wonder, Miss? shadow Oh, what is it I wonder? shadow I'm the cool sailor, the nice-guy genius Cassanova! shadow The incomparable Playboy Fisherman! shadow My! shadow How wonderful! shadow I can't move! shadow Boil me! shadow Broil me! shadow Slice me! shadow Make me into sashimi! shadow Hah, all fish are like that. shadow All fish exist for me to use. shadow I don't mean to brag, but there's no fish I couldn't catch. shadow Wow, is that so? shadow All the fish in the sea are at my beck and call. shadow Oh, I caught another. shadow What's this? It's not doing what I want it to. shadow Is this some new breed of fish? This's never happened before! shadow What the hell are you- shadow Shh. I'm a "koi" [Japanese for "goldfish", and for "love"]. shadow How could a koi be in the ocean?! shadow I wonder I wonder, do you know what I wonder? Akio Don't worry. See? Utena Yeah. Akio His body's big, but he's quite gentle. Utena It's too much to ask for...a Prince on a white horse... Akio They're very timid animals. Akio You have to communicate well with them and get them to trust you. Utena Just like with people. Akio He's telling me that he likes you too. Utena Really? Anthy Utena-sama? Utena-sama? Anthy You'll catch cold. Utena-sama... Akio Looks like I won the game. Touga Nope. It's a draw. Touga She didn't like the present after all. Just like I thought. Akio She was bewildered. Maybe you didn't pick a good gift- Touga There was no mistake in the choice of gift. Touga Besides, they suited her very well. Akio I'd love to see that. She's supposed to become an attractive princess after all. Akio Not a Prince, but a princess. I'm sure you agree. Touga Well now. Who knows. Akio I'm looking forward to the next Duel. Akio The Prince who will revolutionize the world... Akio But I'm praying...for your success. Utena Living's...kinda disgusting, isn't it? Touga Really. Utena Yeah. It's disgusting. Utena Why is everybody alive if they'll just end up dying? Utena And why didn't I realize that until today? Utena There can't be anything eternal, can there? Saionji Something eternal? Utena So it's okay. I'm never leaving this coffin again. Saionji Who would have thought that that girl was Tenjou Utena... Saionji That girl who was inside the coffin. Touga She's still all alone within the coffin. Touga In order to save her, I'll beat her. Saionji Don't tell me you actually love Tenjou Utena? Touga Well, I wonder. Touga I don't even know myself. Saionji We've gotten a lot of letters to date. Saionji From the Ends of the World. Saionji And, as written, we've fought a lot of Duels. Touga But I bet this will be my last letter. Saionji We don't need this "chaban" anymore. ["chaban" = tea server / charade] Saionji You don't need to get letters. Touga You serve him directly. Just get his orders firsthand. Saionji Are you really happy with that? Why are you kissing his ass that much? Touga He's the one who saved her back then. Saionji Oh, I see. Touga I want to become like him. I want power like his. Saionji Are you so sure? Touga What? Saionji It may be that the Chairman saved her back then. Saionji But she's still in the coffin. No, not just her. Saionji We're in our coffins too. Utena Hey, stop that Chu-chu. Utena That's not a caramel. Utena Okay okay, I'll show you what's inside. Utena Hey, whaddya think, Chu-Chu? Utena You attach these to your ears like this. Utena Hey... Anthy What is it? Utena Nothing... Utena I feel like I was just about to remember something important... Utena What...
