Well, this is just my view of their relationship, which is likely rather cynical... but then, that's just how I see Sai as a character. My idea of it (which isn't really a concrete belief, just my closest guess) is that (by this point in the series at least) Mr. Saionji has grown to see Touga as the kind of "Friend" one tolerates in what amounts to a grudging manner at best, creating the kind of interactions where Sai is likely imagining/contemplating the image/idea of murdering Touga at any given moment in their conversation, but at the same time perhaps those thoughts could also be laced with the memories of their distant past as mentioned above. So I kind of see his response to Touga's approach as playing out with Sai being like *sigh* "Yeah, sure. Anything for you." Although I think it's definitely possible that he may have been offered Anthy in return for his assistance as well. That's assuming Touga wins the duel of course, but our beloved redheaded manipulator might have still seen fit to mention it. To me, that angle is hinted at by the scene wherein Touga delivers his challenge. The way Sai casually drops into Anthy's lap could imply a subtle belief on Sai's part that their engagement has already been/will be reinstated. (Or maybe he's just reminiscing on the "has beens" of that particular relationship with newfound clarity and understanding of who Anthy really is, and maybe that's in addition to the former as well. Who knows, there are plenty of other ways one can interpret that part of the scene, it's so deliciously subtle!)


Chrome's initial Query

Well, this question isn't really about Utena, but about the scripts. Do they exist somewhere in romanji? (Correct me if I'm hideously incorrect, but I do believe that is the word for Japanese syllables written in english text) Being both a mindless weaboo and a lover of the sound of my own voice, I believe it would greatly assist my ability to accurately quote the series in it's original form. Who knows, it may also be helpful to other crazy people like me. (Lookin' at you, BRV )
