Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

I always remember this scene with Anthy & Akio in the car as being really hot, but just terrible in Episode 37.
http://kittyfire.com/img/Series_ep37_170.jpg http://kittyfire.com/img/Series_ep37_173.jpg
Akio is revving the engine & Anthy is in the passenger seat enduring his anger - this was one of the only times I remember in the series we actually see him enraged, which I guess goes in with the Saionji thing.  He's totally hot when he's angry.  school-devil

http://kittyfire.com/img/Series_ep37_179.jpg
This shot though specifically is so sexy. etc-love  Even if she has the whole sword thing going on right after this.

Also, definitely with you purplepolecat on that shot of Anthy & the sword!

Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

I always remember this scene with Anthy & Akio in the car as being really hot, but just terrible in Episode 37.

I'd always interpreted this scene as Akio and Anthy having sex. The mix of pain and pleasure on her face was quite indicative.

I actually had a crazy theory that Anthy was somehow connected to the Akio car because of this scene. The harder he pushed the car, the more vocal her reaction. We're also given the fact that we always see post-coital Akio in his Ends of the World/Fallen Prince uniform when he's with Touga, and that the scene where Nanami walks in on Anthy and Akio having sex shows the Rose Bride dress falling to the floor. Given all of that,  I decided that this was a clever deconstruction of them getting it on.

Ha ha, am totally down with you on that one. school-devil In fact, I just find Mikage in general damn sexy, even when he's scaring the hell out of me (which is most noticeable for me in the scene with Utena in front of the pictures, where he turns around to face Utena with a total Children of the Corn smirk and calls her Tokiko...I still find it fucking sexy school-devilschool-devilschool-devil).

It's interesting that nobody has mentioned this scene:

http://ohtori.nu/gallery/var/resizes/Series/Episodes/Akio_Arc/33/Series_ep33_115.jpg?m=1380825124

Although I don't think it's very sexy, either. Non/semi-consensual sex between an immortal and an underage girl isn't exactly arous––

Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

BWAHAHA! on the Twilight thing.

One of the reasons why I appreciate Akio as a character is that he puts a genuinely sinister spin on the "charismatic supernatural love interest" archetype, that he's not portrayed as repentant or "misunderstood," but still manages to be interesting and compelling.

But I agree that the scene in which he and Utena are in bed is much, much more disturbing than it is sexy.  And that every single scene between Mikage and Mamiya is both disturbing AND sexy, especially the one that Grell mentioned. etc-love

Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

Wait.

What's her hand doing there?

Seconding the Kozue/Anthy scene. When I first saw it I wasn't sure whether to get hot or to get bothered. It's disturbing, what with the many levels of inappropriate and Anthy's sad/blank expression, but it's one of the very few times we see Kozue display any sort of tenderness. Think about it; all the scenes we have of her gettin' it on are aggressive in nature, but the one scene with in the car, her hand touching Anthy's face so, so gently... One could make an argument based on that; that like Juri, Kozue is trying desperately to compensate for repressed bisexual/lesbian desires.

What was I saying again?

Oh yes. Kozue x Anthy. Hot.

Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

No, definitely nothing weird about that. Touga being used...for any purpose, against his will, is aces by me. Bonus points for the sexualness. I wonder if in the adult version she didn't play with his peepee a little too. school-freud

Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

I'm with Katz on the whole Wakaba restraining Utena with the sword to her throat bit. That episode in general is amazing (one of my favorites in the whole series), but I'm so guilty of getting horribly distracted by Wakaba in a duelist uniform being forceful with her best friend. >___> *ahem*

I was also secretly wishing Juri would've kissed the stunned Utena instead of yelling at her. emot-tongue

As fucked up as it might sound, I actually found the whole Anthy betrayal moment in 39 both incredibly heart-wrenching as well as incredibly sexy. I know it's a hugely spoiler thought and I don't see any way to do a spoiler code so for the sake of those that for some reason haven't seen the whole series, don't look at my next few images. emot-tongue

We get Anthy pressing herself close to Utena for what it looks like comfort, appearing to kiss the pauldron of her duelist uniform:

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a286/calamityx51/vlcsnap-2010-06-13-12h28m06s97.png

Then of course the actual betrayal happens once Utena's guard is slightly wavering with Anthy close. The fact that she then pushes the sword in deeper while holding Utena against her...

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a286/calamityx51/vlcsnap-2010-06-13-12h44m47s98.png

The part that does tend to distract me the most is when Anthy is laying over the now prone and wounded Utena, speaking softly to her in a rather cold and slightly forceful voice:

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a286/calamityx51/vlcsnap-2010-06-13-12h47m26s162.png

As I said, I know considering one of the most emotional scenes in the series to be arousing might be wrong, but I never claimed to be a saint. emot-tongue

Many people have said that Saionji on a rage is hot, well for me Utena waving her sword around is worthy of a fan girl scream and definitely sexy.

Re: Sexiest Moments in Utena

Anthy just wants to give Utena some good luck fondling. school-devil

I couldn't agree more on Utena being feisty also being quite exciting. For some reason whenever she draws the sword from Anthy (and when they both draw the sword from her) and then gets all shouty and determined, I can't help but swoon. emot-biggrin


I absolutely love the fact that you posted a picture of the unedited kiss from the second closing. etc-love

Er, forgive me, good point. I meant an angst-fap emote, sorry I got that mixed up. Not quite the "ARRGH I AM SO ANGRY I NEED TO TAKE IT OUT ON MY SEXUAL ORGANS" feeling, more of a "Damn it all, why am I etc-wankdude ing to this... how can I be doing this... fuuuuck..." You know.

Just give the normal one green hair, red eyes, and perhaps mess with the grin so he doesn't look happy anymore, and bam!

Yup. That would be Akio down there. He just invited himself to the party.

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e320/wellworm/Series_ep26_132.jpg

Well, while we're all having an appreciation of Kozue's sexiness, it simply wouldn't be complete with this shot. While I'm not a huuuuge fan of hers, I have to admit this shot and her ambiguous manipulation is instant seduction. etc-wankdudeetc-wankdudeetc-wankdude It's just such a great moment for her and really symbolizes her transformation from the insecure brat in the Black Rose arc to the full-fledged temptress. We all have a certain Chairman to thank for his lessons!
