Revolutionary Girl Utena/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: In the manga, and overtly so.

* [[Creepy Twins]]: Miki is not creepy at all (unless you're the type to [[Fridge Horror|overthink some things...]]) but Kozue ''more than makes up'' for that!

* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Becomes one of these in the manga and light novel, forcing Miki (who, in these versions, had been completely opposed to the dueling game beforehand) to duel against Utena in order to save her.

* [[Dub Name Change]]: The Enoki Films release names her Chris.

* [[Freudian Excuse]]: When Miki was unable to attend their recital, not only was it revealed Kozue was a sub-par player on her own, but being alone in front of the crowd clearly traumatized her. And while Miki is the series' [[Nice Guy]], he hasn't treated her with the same affection since she stopped playing the piano and [[Loving a Shadow|projects her childhood self]] onto Anthy. No wonder the girl has [[Yandere|issues]].

* [[Dub Name Change]]: The Enoki Films release names her Kelly.

* [[False Friend]]:Only pretended to be Nanami's friend so that she could get closer to Touga, and wastes no time in ditching her when the opportunity presents itself.

* [[Girlish Pigtails]]

* [[Letting Her Hair Down]]: Does this once after Nanami makes her miss out on seeing Touga at a party.

* [[The Nondescript]]: Taken to new heights when the audience realizes that Utena doesn't even know her ''name'' after she duels her. The other two members of her [[Girl Posse]] have similar names as she does also.

* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: To {{spoiler|Wakaba.}} {{spoiler|Upon hearing him confess, Mikage rejects him for the Black Duels and sends him home.}} And immeduately afterwards, {{spoiler|he uses said knowledge to put Wakaba as the next Black Duelist in line}}.

* [[Green-Eyed Monster]]

* [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]: to {{spoiler|Wakaba}}.

* [[Despair Event Horizon]]: Weaponized, sorta. He uses tactics that arguably predate those of [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Celestial Being]], approaching young people who are in their lowest with promise of a chance to change their worlds and end what's making them suffer by defeating Utena: it's specially obvious in the cases of people like {{spoiler|Kanae, Wakaba, Keiko, or Mitsuru Tsuwabuki.}} And then we learn that {{spoiler|Mikage himself also went past the DEH in his backstory, and is pushed even further in the last episode of the Black Rose arc}}.

* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: all the duels he enables are this, and usually for a small or perceived slight).

* {{spoiler|[[Driven to Madness]]}}: {{spoiler|seeing his beloved Tokiko seduced by Akio and the death of Mamiya made him crack, ''big time''}}.

* [[Elaborate Underground Base]]: Nemuro Memorial Hall. He does his thing in an elevator decorated with pictures of butterflies (in different stages of development) and a leaf, which leads to a massive underground mausoleum where the bodies of a hundred duelists are stored.

* [[Expy]]: Of Fiore from the ''[[Sailor Moon]] R'' movie, which Ikuhara also directed. In addition to their appearances and role in the narrative, they also have the same seiyuu, [[Hikaru Midorikawa]].
