This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

Re: Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!??

Oh my GOODNESS. That is really something.

I tend to find the official Boueibu artwork a little too...I don't know... shiny and otome-game-ish? Free! hits my aesthetic buttons better. But when Boueibu looks good it looks GOOD. And that is fiiiiiine. school-deviletc-love

I see that they too suffer from The Ninja Nipple Syndrome. At least SKU boys have company.

Cute art nevertheless etc-love. And Akoya's glaring lack of a fashion sense makes him even more adorable somehow (but it's still a good thing the council have those swanky uniforms on most of the time).

I would love it if it was an entirely deliberate choice of the creators/artists. All the other characters dress adorably as far as I've seen. So Akoya being terrible at fashion despite being obsessively desperate to dress well is my new headcanon for this character.

Until Rei Ryugazaki shows up in his life and teaches him how a REAL connoisseur of beauty dresses!~ school-eng101

Oh wow, Kin-chan stole Atsushi's glasses.

It makes sense for Akoya to have such an awful sense of fashion. He is so beautiful that he does not need nice clothes, his natural beauty shines even brighter by contrast.

And I love it how he braids his Utena-hair on vacation emot-keke

So this rule doesn't really apply to SKU men. Or maybe this means the boy and Saionji aren't handsome, so they use water to distinguish those ugly ones. Makes me think about the witchcraft trials.emot-tongue

But you have to admit Saionji's hair looks positively majestic in the water! Like a majestic seaweed monster.

Re: Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!??

I suspect Utena would drive Akoya absolutely insane. He'd see her a boorish female (I expect him to even use that expression) and either foam at the mouth at the unrefined way she presents herself or decide to turn her into a proper lady which would probably be absolutely hilarious.

"And then you braid like your hair like this, pay attention."
"What for?"
"What do you mean what for, for the sake of beauty!"
"Eh..."

Bonus points if after the amazing makeover both Student Councils can't tell them apart...meaning we'd have Touga hitting on Akoya and Utena being given the whole 'conquer the world!' spiel. Plus Akoya being engaged to Anthy!

"Engaged to a girl?! How dreadful! And what on Earth is she is even wearing?"

Re: Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!??

Aw, the boys sleeping and holding hands is so adorable! Ryuu looks so vulnerable with his hair down...and I'm not complaining.

How come Wombat is dressed like a male stripper? I bet it was Yumoto's idea.

This is a crossover begging to happen.
Akoya is walking around Ohtori when he spots Mikage and goes 'onii-sama'. It'd be pure, pure gold.

I hate Ryuu's normal hairstyle, it pisses me off for some reason. Like, what is it? And why? And how? Just leave it down.

Lol didn't even notice what Wombat was wearing. XD


Akoya is not quite young enough for Mikagae's tastes methinks school-eng101school-devil

Re: Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!??

I saw a few guys wearing hairclips last time I was in Tokyo. Can't recall any with headbands, though.

Akoya wouldn't exactly go full Nanami in his onii-chan worship. He'd probably secretly think to himself something lile, 'Great, if this guy is my old brother that means he'll inherit the family business and do all the work. Leaving me to lead a free and beauty filled life of leisure! Perfect!'. And so Mikage would win unlimited funding...and the world would probably end up exploding.

Re: Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!??

You can Google the season 2 trailer. I haven't found one with subs yet, but looks like more delicious  Boueibu goodness. I didn't see Zundar, Wombat is obviously there and the Caramel Adidas are still lurking in the background. I really hope they team up to be a team of 8, or that Kinshirou and co. can be like the outer senshi and be kind of anti-heroes. If they're villains again it would be really repetitive. I have faith in the Boeuibu team though, so I'm looking forward to it.
