Much of Saionji's hostility towards Utena comes from jealousy of  her confident gender-bending ways - Saionji is, in fact, a transsexual who is unable to express himself as well as Utena. As a result, he has to write about his troubles in his diary and hide in the woods wearing women's aprons to help vent his frustration.

This is also why his relationship with Anthy has soured - after telling her he wished to be a woman, she replied that only real men could be her prince.

I think there's a fanfic in this.

Thanks to key events in her life, Nanami no longer touches beef and she cannot bare eating eggs no more but strangely she now drinks way more milk than she ever did before the cowbell incident.

from another thread--

Of cause it does, would you want to park your car anywhere where it might end up damaged?

Thats due to the fact that while Akio can drive at high speed and even do that bonnet thing he does with complete ease, he doesn't have a Drivers Licence because he cannot park a car without breaking something.

One of the key points of this show is that there is nothing more wreched than to be in love with the wrong person and worse, not been able to fall out of love with said person.

Juri > Shiori
Kozue > Miki
Nanami > Touga
Chuchu > Sugary Treats

Saionji > Anthy
Miki > Anthy
Mikage > Tokiko/Mamiya
Touga > Power

Don't forget Tsuwabuki > Nanami.

My bad for forgeting that one.

Maybe I should have extended my theory to say that just about everyone has a fixation on a person or ideal which could lead to their ruin.

*After Anthy found Utena, they lived together in a small apartment in Madras, because Anthy knew that her hometown would be the last place that Akio would look for her.

*Shiori thinks that roses smell funny, strangely enough. She likes tiger lilies better. For her twelfth birthday, Juri gave her a dozen. Shiori couldn't throw them away for three months after they wilted.

*Kozue knows lots of things, actually. Most of it happens to be irrelevant trivia, but she knows a lot, nonetheless. It may come in handy one day, whereas knowing the cubed root of 74 most definitely will not.

*Tsuwabuki never became a duelist at Ohtori. He was given the choice, but he didn't like the idea of passing Mari around like a piece of meat. He was transfered to the sister school in Amsterdam two weeks later. Nobody spoke of him again.

*Juri's favorite snack food is chocolate-covered espresso beans. She won't tolerate cheap brands, though. And the chocolate must be dark chocolate.

Ruka didn't actually die from a disease, Juri just has a Death Note.

It explains moive!Touga's death, too.

"Shiori, what's the name of that boy you're going to the park with? Touga Kiryuu? At 2:30? Kthx."

In the same way that Tsuwabuki stalked Nanami, Mari stalked Miki but she was always too scared to ever go up to him, mainly because she knows about dangerous Kozue is.
