- Revolutionary Girl Utena is the result of a What Could Have Been for the Sailor Moon SuperS movie. Kunihiko Ikuhara would have made the latter's Schoolgirl Lesbians as the primary characters, and some of his original ideas for the movie would eventually be repurposed for the Utena television series.
- Utena was aired on television in 1997, and Central Park Media began releasing the series on VHS in 1999. One year later marked the first DVD releases. When CPM was liquidated, the license was on the fence until 2011, when Nozomi Entertainment rescued and rereleased it.
- Acting in the Dark: Rachael Lillis, the English voice of Utena, has admitted that she has never met Sharon Becker, who voiced Anthy, despite being co-leads.
- Fan Nickname:
- The Movie is sometimes called "The End of Utena" after that other infamous Mind Screw.
- Shiori is referred to as "the goat" by her haters.
- Akio's '57 Corvette is known simply as the Akio Car.
- Fans on Nico Nico Douga sometimes call it the "Yaranai-Car". If you don't get it, you're better off not asking.
- The tower where Akio resides: The Cocktower.
- The player character from the Utena Sega Saturn game: Mary Sue, or more affectionately, D-ko.
- Saionji seems to be refered to as "Wakame" by Japanese fans. It's probably the hair.
- In some circles, the manga version has the not-exactly-flattering nickname of "Utena Lite".
- Hey, It's That Voice!: TAJ Productions helped in the dubbing process, so many Central Park Media mainstays/later 4Kids! Entertainment voices pop up here.
- Utena: Rachael Lillis
- Miki: Jimmy Zoppi
- Shiori: Lisa Ortiz
- Mitsuru: Ted Lewis
- Tatsuya: Frank Frankson
- Mikage: DAN GREEN! A sharp contrast from his usual endeavors, but still very well done.
- Tokiko: Tara Jayne
- Ruka: Wayne Grayson
- Touga is Crispin Freeman in his second official big role (Zelgadis being his first)
- Mamiya is Liam O'Brien in one of his earliest roles also.
