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

Hello, what Utena character are you most like, and why?

Hey, I'm new here, and wanted to get a topic started. So, my big question is, which Utena character are you like, and why?
Me, I'm Arisugawa Juri. Why? Well here we go:
I'm in a similar situation to Juri-I had a friend that I cared for very much. At one point, she and I dated, but soon people around us began to tell me that behind my back, she was saying that I was a lot of expletives and that she saw me as a rival, that she was only using me to get in good with the friends I had so she could turn them against me. Then she proceeded to go out with my ex, saying that she was better than me, thinking(incorrectly) that I still loved him. I don't still love him, and in reality, I care for her still-I'm not sure if it's love at this point, but I do care for her. I pity her, because I feel she has insecurities that led her to act this way, and won't be honest with me about her feelings. God knows I'd still do anything to help her, but that seems to be impossible for her to acknowledge.
I resent that she feels the need to act this way, but what can I do? I can only hope one day  she'll wake up and see that I care about her regardless of all she's done. maybe SHE needs a Revolution, who knows? But this is why I relate to Juri. I sympathize with her plight.
I'm also an Atheist, and I don't believe in the miraculous. But maybe against all hope, there IS a miracle to be found...

Sorry for blabbing so much, hope I didn't bore you. I look forward to your replies!
