Revolutionary Girl Utena, Vol. 3: To Sprout

2004Chiho Saitō

4.3/5

The last volume for today! I would love to just race through this series, but I know I will regret that. :P But this series is just too fabulous, too fun, too wonderful. In this one we find out a little more about the World's End (though I still want to know more, especially now THAT happened near the end of the volume), about Dios (who may just be Utena's prince o.0), about Anthy. Though I am only disliking Anthy more and more with each volume. I loved her in the first one, I was worried about her, I wanted her to have a good life, but with volume 2 and 3... eh. With what she did at the end of volume 3 especially I just wanted to shake her good and well and see if maybe that would bring some sense into her. But I am still curious about her as well. We meet yet another character and I didn't trust him from the start. The way he picked up Utena (in believe she was his sister).... no. Just no.I am also still going with the whole they are 15-17 and not 13-16 thing. Because there are some scenes in here which are just a bit too creepy if you take in account that Utena is 13 officially. I am still not sure what to think of Touga though. He seems to have no real bad intentions and he seems genuinely interested in Utena. He may just want to change his techniques for getting her to accept him though. :PThe art is still fabulous and I am just amazed at the amount of details! The side-stories were pretty fun to read, a real change from the normal stories. I thought it was quite fun that they were mostly from the monkey's POV.
