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

We see the student council elevator go down in the episode where Shiori shows up and Juri leaves the meeting early and we watch her stare at her locket as the elevator goes down.

C) When do we see Utena climb the arena steps prior to a duel without Zettai Unmei Mokushiroku backing her up?
I think this happens when she heads up to the arena when Saionji kidnaps Anthy.

Right on B!  But once again, in C I asked specifically when this happens prior to a duel.  There's no duel at the top of the arena when Utena chases Saionji up there, just a video gamelike platform jumping exercise for Utena.

Re: Utena trivia!

Time for some guesses. And some educated guesses. school-sherlock

5C) When do we see Utena climb the arena steps prior to a duel without Zettai Unmei Mokushiroku backing her up?
Before Touga's second duel, I believe.

6. Of Mikage's recruits, excluding himself and Tatsuya...
6A) Who doesn't touch the chest of the person they draw their sword from?
Tsuwabuki?

6B) Who doesn't raise their voice in the Black Rose elevator?
Kozue?

6C) Who don't we see falling on a red silhouette?
Keiko?

7) When Utena and Touga visit the arena at night in episode 36, she starts the conversation with a memory lapse.  What is she evidently forgetting about?
The number of times they've been up to the dueling area together.

Nice!  You nailed 5C, and your guesses on 6A and 6B were spot-on.  6C was not right, and 7 was a memory lapse Utena suffered during her last duel with Touga, not when they went on their semi-date earlier the same episode.

Wakaba, no?


The first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
And the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
And sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
Such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix

Re: Utena trivia!

It's been long enough, and all but one have been answered, so I'll reveal!

Thanks for playing!  emot-smile  Anyone got more?

(The same as Miki's.  emot-tongue  No, seriously... I remember she's a May Gemini, which puts her between May 21 and May 31.)

6.What kind of plant is in a character's name that the phoenix is said to have nested in, and who is that character?
This was too awesome a question not to look up right away.  Naturally, I'm not telling, but I wanted to give you a shout-out.

I will say, however, that the kanji in question looks a lot like the first character of Kiryuu.

OMG!  Duh!  (Anthy, during Miki's third-season duel.  She drives and makes out at the same time, which is something even Akio never accomplished.)

Re: Utena trivia!

I wanna say sleep got that one.

Anthy always seemed to be just in for the ride on that one.
Though one could argue Miki's was a dream. but we saw it.

Re: Utena trivia!

Yeah, after seeing satyreyes's answer, I was a little confused myself. emot-keke

For Miki, he was.. well.. fanasizing. So it might not count, since he wasn't technically driving the car. (..unless he was, in twisted SKU logic) For Anthy, I'm not really sure if all of the random cars in the dueling arena were really Akio's cars or just ones that looked alike. Since there were so many. And wasn't Saionji in one of the cars when Touga was dueling, or am I just imagining things? emot-confused
