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

Utena trivia!

Somehow, we have a general trivia thread but not an Utena trivia thread.  I'll start us off with...

1. Only two duelists ever cut the rose from Utena's chest.  One is Touga.  Who's the other?

2. What color of rose frames...
A. Touga when he's introduced for the first time? 
B. Utena when she first climbs to the arena? 
C. Shiori when she first gets a rose border?

3. As the last duel of the Black Rose Saga is ending, Akio gets a phone call.  How does he address his caller?

Please post answers, questions, commentary... whatever emot-smile  There's so much about this show that I'd never notice no matter how many times I watched it.  Answers should be posted in white text so as not to spoil.  To do this, just type [ color=#ffffff ] (spoiler text goes here) [ /color ] without the spaces.  Answers can then be viewed by highlighting the white space.  Happy trivia'ing!

I know you think Akio cuts Utena's rose off, but no -- he just deflowers her.

Re: Utena trivia!

I have this feeling this is going to turn into a "Stump Giovanna and Yasha" thread. 

In fact, I'll give a cookie to anyone that can stump them.  Or at least post something they seriously need to go rewatch to find out.

As for myself, I've only watched Black Rose and beyond once, so I suck at this trivia.

Life is short: break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.

Re: Utena trivia!

Hmmm...

I think...I am not as big a fan of Utena as I might've hoped. emot-frown


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

Dude, you can be an enormous fan of Utena while still sucking at Utena trivia emot-smile  God knows I do; I'm rewatching the show, and these are just the things that jumped out at me.  A week ago I'd have had no idea about any of them.

(I can hear him say, "Ah, Nemuro-kun," in my head, but what that means only just clicked...)

Hmm.. I have no idea. ): I didn't know there were two. But, I'm going to take a wild guess, so don't be surprised if it's wrong.

My guess(es): Juri? Or Akio?

Edit: Oh! I see that I was way off. emot-redface Wow, I totally forgot about that one..

Re: Utena trivia!

I'll answer the ones I can!  (They're also the ones everyone's likely to know, but I got to them first emot-tongue)

Tamago wrote:

3/ What does Miki mistakenly call Chu-Chu?
(He calls him Chuu-Chuu.  Chuu is the sound a mouse makes, so it's an understandable mistake.  Coincidentally, Miki's own nickname is Mikki -- made by doubling the consonant in much the same way he doubles Chu-Chu's vowel.)

5/ What was featured on the tables in the Duelling Arena during the battle with Wakaba?
(The hairpin Saionji gave her.)

7/ Where is the sister school to Ohtori Academy located?
(Amsterdam.  This has probably been remarked upon in every thread in the forum at some point emot-smile)

Someone answer the others.  I'm dying to know!  emot-smile

Mark it up like this...

[ color=white ]Answer goes here[ /color ]

...removing the spaces I stuck inside the brackets.

I thought it had to be color=#ffffff, but it turns out this way works too.

"Pull it out"

Baking a cake! Or maybe just cooking? Pretty sure it's baking, tho...

Re: Utena trivia!

I'm thinking 67...

Pull it.

6/ In the first part of episode 30, The Barefoot Girl, what is exactly is this 'rare' skill for a guy that Akio have?
Bake a cake.

HAY FUCK YOU! I didn't see you'd answered. Now that I think of it, that answer sounds better for number 1, I dunno...I suck at the first arc.

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.

Re: Utena trivia!

Lol, 'sokay Gio. I know that's what she got in the manga, and I'm reasonably certain it was what she got in the anime too...

AHAHAHAHAHA oh angel, you're gonna be giving out a lot of cookies. At least on my behalf. I'm really easy to stump with trivia. Much better at interpretation than actual rememberology. emot-biggrin

Did I ever mention that I tried to go to the opera without my car keys once? Yeah. And then there was the time I actually drove part way to work without remembering my glasses... which I'm legally required to wear to drive. Not to mention that at least every other day I tear up the house looking for something that I put down a few moments ago and can't remember what I did with it...

As for the trivia, the only question left is one I don't know. Give Tamago a cookie, angel. emot-biggrin

Re: Utena trivia!

Just a question: what's the point of marking spoilers? emot-confused 99% of everything that's posted on Empty Movement and the forums are unmarked. I don't really see a point in it.

Also, nice thread. You all beat me to those. At least the ones I actually knew.

I hate the difference between, "u," and, "uu." Then again, this from the person who complains about how in the dub they pronounce Ruka's name as, "Suchiya," instead of, "Tsuchiya."  As though there's a big difference. >.>
