[Utena]

[post-position.livejournal.com]

I agree. I finally watched this series this spring and it was a bit of a disappointment cause it follows a sailor moon type formula through the entire thing. I liked it well enough, but I was appreciating it for what it was. A formulaic 90s shoujo anime.

[childings.livejournal.com]

cause it follows a sailor moon type formula through the entire thing.

It's directed by the same guy who directed Sailor Moon and the directorial style is the same, but I don't really see how it's anything like Sailor Moon beyond that, seriously.

[box-life.livejournal.com]

And you have an icon of it? I know it's the movie, but ???

[(Anonymous)]

...Formulaic? Anon thinks it only looked like that on the surface. Its point was to deconstruct a lot of tropes.

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

Maybe mind screw just isn't your thing?

[assplund.livejournal.com]

Disliking something does not make you a bad anything, fff. It just means it's not to your taste. :)

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

.... Huh, really? I watched the entire thing a few months back and I absolutely adore it. Guess it's not for everyone. I mean, I have no room to talk, I tried Code Geass and found it pretty boring. vOv

[pocket.livejournal.com]

yeah i think if you're not into mindfuck alternate universe bullshit it's not really your thing. and anthy and utenas' relationship is just.. really fucking bizarre so it's not like it makes you a bad lesbian or anything.

i mean, i love it but
just because it's so crazy and messed up.

[miss_prince.livejournal.com]

Eh, it's not for everyone. Tastes differ, and all.

I have no idea what post_position is going on about, though. Utena is like Sailor Moon? Whaaaat?

[ember-reignited.livejournal.com]

I know, right? Sure, it uses lots of 90's shoujo formulas... and then turns them on their heads and spins them round like tops.

[post-position.livejournal.com]

I just think it uses the same formula that sailor moon did, not that the plot was at all similar. The fact that the director is the same explains that though.

[(Anonymous)]

When Utena first came around it was really big in the lesbian community, which was understandable because there was very little in the ways of gay storylines in anime back then, or in entertainment as a whole.

But is it a good lesbian romance story? No. Is it even a good story, period? Probably not.

There was a brief period where I was really addicted to the series but it just ruined everything with all these levels of WTFery... and then the movie. OH GOD THE MOVIE...

WHY DID THEY TURN INTO CARS?????????

[judo-creature.livejournal.com]

I have never seen it, though I need to. My... lesbian best friend thinks it is awesome, and my gay best friend considers it one of the only anime series he likes. So I have heard good things, certainly.

But not liking a popular series does not mean that you are at all a bad anything. Men are not bad men because they might not like women. I am not a bad hormonal teenager because I do not enjoy yaoi. You are not a bad lesbian just because you don't like something that is part of gay pop culture.

Your mind, your opinion. ♥ Rock wid it, OP.

[haleysings.livejournal.com]

My brother and his girlfriend have been watching this series and hating it, too--and now I'm nervous about seeing it for myself and feeling let down (particularly since my favorite series is constantly compared to Utena).

[marumae.livejournal.com]

Eh personal tastes and all, a lot of Utena is philosophical metaphor and cracktastic symbolism and for some that's just not interesting. I loved it personally....don't feel bad. There are quite a few things I'm supposed to love if I call myself a "whatever/insert whatever fan" and I don't so...yeah XD.

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

I guess Utena is one of those shows that will either click with you or just...not. I, personally, love it to pieces because it's just so...out there. In that it's not afraid to just be crazy. But like I said, it's not for everyone, so don't feel too concerned if it wasn't for you. :)

[ms-cucumber.livejournal.com]

I'm not a lesbian and I liked it, but now these responses are confusing me. Are only lesbians supposed to like Utena?

[anibunny.livejournal.com]

I love the series and enjoy the movie for the artistic value. Even so, I can definitely see it as a series that isn't for everyone. Regardless of sexual orientation.

[childings.livejournal.com]

Why did you hate it? I'm not judging you or anything, I just want to know because I'm curious to know what you didn't like about it.

[twyla-hime.livejournal.com]

It makes me sad that you didn't like it. But the series is very WTF?! and convoluted, so I can understand why someone would be turned off by it. Luckily, there are other yuri anime out there you can try.

[box-life.livejournal.com]

I love it lots (obviously) but not liking it doesn't make you a bad anything.

And, I'm going to second a lot of the people who have said it's not formulaic at all. Sure, it uses a lot of 90s shojo tropes, but then it subverts most of them. It gets pretty mind screwy towards the end, and the movie is really awful in the mind screw department. Really, the manga makes the most sense, but not even Juri was a lesbian it it, and Chiho Saito's art is so pretty, one of the only shojo mangakas I like and I'm rambling.

I would be curious as to why you didn't like it, however, OP?

[bonsoirdollface.livejournal.com]

This was my reaction to Strawberry Panic. I like Utena, though; sorry you didn't. :(

[ouo]

Just out of curiosity, do you mean you've seen the whole thing? I know some people don't like it until they get fairly far in.

[vociferocity.livejournal.com]

HEY, GUESS WHAT

BEING A GOOD/BAD LESBIAN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHETHER OR NOT YOU ENJOYED UTENA, OKAY?

SERIOUSLY, AND I MEAN IT WHEN I SAY THIS, NOTHING.
