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

So in my personal canon, Akio/Dios and Anthy are related somehow to Ashwathama, perhaps his children. The bauble either is Ashwathama's original jewel that Akio has since retrieved, or a copy or something. Oh, in case any of you don't know, I suppose I should mention that the Mahabharata is a Hindu epic.

I etc-love this idea and new way of looking at this epic. poptart and hugs for you.

New suggestion: the bauble matches his lovely green eyes.

Re: Random Utena Questions? Possible Analysis and or Anwsers...

So as I was reading the thread about Touga support for loving or not loving Utena; I thought up another question?

Does Touga know that Akio successfully slept with Utena? If so do ya'll think that it would have changed his feelings/actions towards her?

Random question: Considering  all the confusion and secrets going down at any given time. Whom in the main cast knows most of whats happening; not including Akio and Anthy?

Re: Random Utena Questions? Possible Analysis and or Anwsers...

Stormcrow, that is the coolest interpretation EVER. It's now canon in my brain.

I think Touga knows Akio slept with her. Akio never shied away from shoving him success with her in Touga's face before, and we all know Akio has a boner for mentally torturing others.

Akio:  She was beautiful.
Touga:  Her, you mean?
Akio:  Yeah. Pure, and magnificent.
Akio:  A peerless princess.
Akio:  My precious one.
Touga:  I know that.

That's gloating. What a fucking jerk. emot-mad

I'd say Touga knows the most, Saionji understands the most. Utena, Juri, Miki, Nanami, etc...are totally clueless, to be honest.


Akio, you have nice turns of phrase, but your points aren't clear and you have no textual support. I can't give this a passing grade.
