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

I'm not sure, although on the person's website, she did say they were sisters. I really love that Kozue, she's just as I'd picture her as a real person.
Dollface, th shadowgirl cosplayer is awesome! What kind of costume is she wearing underneath her clothes?

... Okay, fine, all Shiori cosplayers are good cosplayers in my eyes.
I'm not a Shiori fan but...
Damn, it must be the hair then! I mean, it's kind of curly and everything. And reminds me of Anthy.
edit: Do post more. Please?

This is only considered "good" because it sums up what I think of Movie!Akio nicely.
To make up for that, and so you may not need to run for your personal bottle of Eye Bleach, have some uber-cute Cat!Duellists!
(I normally dislike cat-people, but this just had me going "aww....")

These are from a Japanese cosplay site; I'm not sure I should be posting these because the site is members-only. But still, I thought they were awesome and wanted to share.
Also, LOTS OF PICS.

Veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeera nice. Thanks for sharing, Maarika.

DO WANT!
That's all I have to say.

OMG
That Mamiya is GORGEOUS!!!

What's an Alucard doing beside Rose Bride Anthy on page one, I wonder? ^^0
I'd never thought I'd say this, but as a non-cosplayer (did I say that right?), it sure looks fun to dress up like that. ^_^ The Mamiya cosplayer looks like s/he's been torn off a screenshot from the animé. Kozue in Rose Bride and Miki in the movie outfit's really nice --- the ones posted by Maarika ; I like blue stuff. So are the last two couple shots of Utena and Anthy. And the Nanami and Kanae cosplay photos from Adrasteia are just amazing.
I do remember someone from roselinedcoffin posting some pretty amazing cosplay photographs of Rosiel (from Cosplay.com) as Touga with the other Seitokai. Does anyone has them?
And if my memory serves me right, I think my favorite Juri cosplayers would be Archambeau and Ashley (from Cosplay.com). ^_^
*is quite lazy to browse --- there are tons of photographs at that place*
I haven't seen nice Ruka cosplays yet, though.

*head explodes*
I suddenly want to rape Miki even more.

Little something for the shippers.
I'd like to draw this Juri naked. She has such a nice butt.
... Yeah, my first reaction upon seeing a woman with a beautiful body is to draw it. Am I straight? Bi? Or just weird?

Those were some awesome cosplayers, such nice, crisp costumes.

FencingCaptain:
I agree; Archambeau is by far the best Juri cosplayer I've seen on cosplay.com, and her friend Railiens is the best Utena in my eyes. Oh and... you will see a nice Ruka cosplay--but Touga comes first. *snerks*
Maarika:
Oh my... give me that Nanami! I want her!
...and I sound like an incestual Touga for saying that. Lol.

I'm somewhat in love with the first asian Miki and the Kozue/Mikis Hand one
The Mamiya is probably just as gorgeous, but totally overphotoshopped...
Offline
I want to eat that Nanami up! (And not in the Cowbell of Happiness sense.)
The Kozue is also delicious...
Apparently SKU has turned me onto cannibalism. To be honest, didn't see that coming.

OMG MIKAGE HAXXED GIO'S ACCOUNT!

Wow, that Nanami in the middle of page 1 is stunningly close to the animated version, as was one of the Utenas very early in the thread.
I've never been a cosplay fan, but I have to admit some of these gave me chub. The Juri + Shiori pair is .
I have noticed one big lack in this thread, WHERE ARE THE AKIO COSPLAYERS?
Offline
Eguuuuu~ I want Kozue and Touga and the roses and wow that's amazing cosplay.

I KNOW.
There are lots and lots of Anthys and Utenas (which is no surprise, they're the main characters, after all) assloads of Miki's and Juri's, and a fair amount of Kozue's even. But I rarely ever see a really nice-looking Saionji (I wanna find one with him in his kendogi ). And I think I've seen maybe two Akio cosplayers.
Also, I haven't seen alot of Mikage's or Nanami's.
:C I've even seen more shadow-girl cosplayers than I have Akio cosplayers.
I'm also surprised that their aren't more Touga cosplayers than there are. I mean, he's walking, talking, cock-waving yaoi-bait, for christsakes.
Gio has an Akio-tie though. So she's totally on my list of people to molest.

I think that there is a mysterious correlation between the under-representation of SKU characters in cosplay and hentai.

I've never seen a sexy Akio cosplayer. I haven't seen many Akio cosplayers, but if they only count when they're sexy, I haven't seen any.

She posted some of her SKU cosplay photos (including one where she was wearing Akio's rijichou outfit) at roselinedcoffin. One even asked if she was male. *grins*
Offline
Okay, it's unfair how hot she is. Seriously.
Offline
OMG I'm totally crushing on that Asian Juri *drool*
But come on let's be real, NO real life person could be as hot as Akio, Touga, or Saionji. Miki yes, because Miki's sexiness is in a cute way, that as far as I know only Asians can copy lol
The other guys however.... oh and Ruka too, he's one of them.... those four... I don't think they have a realistic hotness.
If I saw a cosplayer that looked as sexy as any of those men.... I'd probably rape them rofl
