Juri Feelings I can never put into words. Juri But my heart always keeps on whispering. Juri And...you too... sign Tsuchiya Ruka Juri Next! Juri Next! Utena Senpai's really something. This is the eighth opponent in a row. Anthy She's so strong. Juri Next! Juri Next! Miki Yes ma'am! Ruka Sorry for not having an appointment, but would you mind if I was your next opponent? Ruka Sorry. Miki Amazing. He's as good as Juri-senpai is. Utena No. Senpai was slightly slower. Ruka I was wondering how much you'd grown while I was away, Ruka but it looks like I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up. Juri So it really was you, Captain. Utena What?! Miki "Captain"...? Ruka Hey hey, you're the captain now, Arisugawa. title Whispering in the Dark Juri Ruka has returned to the Academy. Nanami Ruka has? Juri Yes. Tsuchiya Ruka, Captain of the Fencing Club. Miki Juri-san, aren't you the Captain of the Fencing Club? Juri I'm just minding things in his absense. Miki I had no idea. Nanami But what the heck is he doing back now? Ruka How cruel, Nanami-kun. Ruka Is that any way to talk to a recovering upperclassman? Nanami Ruka-senpai! Ruka Having long been absent from school due to an illness, I have now returned to school. Nanami Congratulations on your good health... Ruka Thank you. Ruka The Ends of the World seems rather displeased. Ruka He complains that none of you have any spine. Juri Have you been chosen too? Miki Then you're going after Tenjou-san too? Ruka Hey now. I'm still recovering. Nanami Then what do you intend to do? Ruka Good question. Well, I haven't been at the Academy for a while. Ruka For now, I think I'll just enjoy the carefree student life. Nanami Thanks for the meal... Ruka No, close your stance more. Ruka Tilt in your hips. Ruka Yes, that's more like it. girl Okay. girl Hey, get out of there! I want my turn! crowd Me too! Me too! girl Tsuchiya-san's just so awesome! girl It feels like he's all anyone talks about anymore. sign Arisugawa Juri sign Tsuchiya Ruka Shiori U-um...I'm sorry... Shiori I, um, wasn't trying to... Ruka I see. So it was you. Shiori What...? Ruka While I was away, somebody polished my sword every day. Ruka I was so happy. Ruka It was you, right? Shiori Yes. All for your sake, Shiori every day I polished this sword... Ruka Thank you. You're such a gentle person. Shiori Oh no, I'm not- girl Hey, check it out! Get a load of those two! girls Whoa! Major shock! girl Shiori's really something! girl I can't believe she got Tsuchiya-san so fast! girl She's usually all quiet and stuff... girl ...but she really kicks butt when she wants to. Juri I have something to say. Meet me "there". Ruka I'm glad you remembered this place. Ruka Sure takes you back, doesn't it? Ruka I taught you all my techniques here. Ruka From the moment you entered the club, your talent shone brighter than anyone else. Juri You're the Captain of the Fencing Team. I leave the management of the club in your hands. Ruka Oh? Juri And whatever you're plotting as a Duelist is none of my concern. Juri But... Ruka But? Juri Keep your hands off of Shiori. Ruka What for? Juri Shiori is... Juri Shiori is an old friend of mine. Ruka I see. I understand what you're saying. Ruka But I think you're misunderstanding something. Juri What? Ruka I said already that I was going to live the carefree life. Ruka Why shouldn't I be free to enjoy romance with anyone in the Academy I want? Utena Tsuchiya Ruka. A swordsman good enough to surpass Arisugawa-senpai. Utena This amazing person has returned to the Fencing Club. Anthy You seem to be worried, Utena-sama. Utena Yeah. I feel some kind of unease. Ruka You're panting just like a little puppy. Shiori Come on... Ruka Well, shall we go? Ruka No matter how long the night is, it'll be just like a second to us. Shiori Yes. Juri He knows. Juri He knows everything.
Shiori Oh, Juri-san. Shiori What's that expression for? Juri Shiori, you shouldn't go out with him. Shiori What? Juri Your surprise is understandable. But, I'm worried about you. Juri You mustn't trust that- Shiori Juri-san. Shiori You really suck, you know? girl Shiori, whatcha up to? girl Let's get going already. Shiori Yeah, coming. girl What's wrong? Shiori Oh, nothing. girl Isn't Arisugawa-senpai such a scary person? Shiori Oh, really? Shiori Tsuchiya-senpai! Touga Hi. Shiori Who're you... Touga Sorry for startling you. Touga I came with a message from Tsuchiya. Touga He said he'd take you someplace wonderful and he wanted you to wait for him. Shiori Someplace wonderful? Touga Listen, can't you hear it? Touga If your soul has not truly given up... Touga ...you should be able to hear... Touga ...the sound... Touga ...resounding across the Ends of the World. Shiori What...are you saying? Shiori What?! What's going on? Touga Now, allow us to invite you, to the world you desire! Ruka Were you surprised? Shiori No, not at all. Ruka I thought you'd say that. Shiori You're gonna take me someplace wonderful, right? Ruka That's right. You've become an adult too. Ruka Let's grab hold of the whole world. Ruka Just the two of us. Shiori The whole world... Ruka Yes. The enormous Power of Miracles. Shiori Will that be mine? Ruka Yes. Shiori How wonderful. Akio Pleasant vibrations, aren't they? Utena Always so pretty... Utena Um, the roses. Ruka You're Tenjou Utena-kun? Ruka We've met once before, right? Utena Yes. I saw your match with Arisugawa-senpai. Ruka Yes. Ruka What splendid roses. Ruka Such a nice smell. Utena Are you a Duelist too? Ruka Today, after school, in the Arena of Duels. shadow Can you catch anything? shadow Doesn't look like it. shadow I got one! shadow Hold on tight! Don't let it get away! shadow Okay, come to papa! shadow Hey, isn't that a sandal? shadow Ooh, I got one over here! shadow Don't lose it, this is for dinner tonight! shadow Damn, it's a kettle. shadow Look, they're biting over there too! shadow Okay, this is the real thing this time! shadow A tire? shadow I guess. shadow Heave! Ruka If you saw my match with Juri, you should already know. Ruka I'm far better with a sword. Utena We'll never know till we try. Ruka That's correct. You've got hidden powers, and I may not be able to beat them. Anthy O roses of noble memory, I beseech thee: Anthy Appear before me. both Grant me the power to Revolutionize the World! Ruka Neither Saionji nor Touga is an amateur. Yet they couldn't beat you. Ruka I wonder how we'll do. Utena You're the first person who's ever said that during a Duel. Ruka Really? But because I've decided to fight... Ruka ...I intend to win! Ruka Now! Show me your power! Utena So strong... Ruka Oh? This might be easier than I thought. Utena Say what?! Ruka Hey now, I'm still recovering. Ruka Be a bit more gentle. Ruka What? Is that it? Ruka Ah, so that's it. Shiori Hey, we'll win next time, right? I mean, the Power of Miracles is ours after all. Shiori Those two won't- Ruka There is no next time. Shiori What? Ruka No matter how often we do this, the outcome wouldn't change. Ruka It's partially the Bride's fault that I lost. Shiori No way, that's cruel. Shiori Do you know how much I cared about you? Shiori That's right! I polished your sword every day! Shiori Only for you... Ruka Oh that? That wasn't my sword. Ruka Your acting was really something. Great, for an ad-lib. Juri I thought I told you to keep your hands off Shiori. Ruka She chose this herself. Juri Don't say that. Ruka Right. There's no need for me to say it. Ruka After all, you know it better than anybody else. Juri Ruka! What're you after! What're you thinking?! Juri Ruka!!
text Next Episode Preview Utena There's a rumor going around that Arisugawa-senpai loves Shiori-san, but what do you think's going on? Anthy I don't think other people would understand. Utena Huh? Anthy "Love"...it means different things to different people. Utena No, I wasn't asking something that general. What I wanna know now is...
