Line 66:
** Nanami's Egg episode... the whole thing.
* [[Older Than They Think]]: ''Utena'' makes heavy use of tropes and visual elements from classic shoujo series such as ''[[Rose of Versailles]]'', most of which were not familiar to American audiences before the popularity of this series.
* [[Ron the Death Eater]]: Shiori Takatsuki gets this a lot. While even her fans would agree that she is a ''heavily'' flawed person, her haters often make her out to be a [[Complete Monster]], some even calling her worse than ''Akio''. The fanbase, especially Juri and Ruka fans, often ignore that Shiori isn't just a monster who torments Juri [[For the Evulz]], and that Juri contributes just as much to their broken relationship as she does. In fact, Shiori actually tries to make amends when she returns, only for ''Juri'' to refuse to listen out of bitterness. She also gets called a monster for what she did as a Black Rose Duelist (ignoring that she was no different than Kozue and Wakaba) and some even say she ''deserved'' being humiliated by Ruka.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Shiori is easily one of the most hated characters in the fandom, to the point where even ''members of staff'' disliked her. Nanami is also rather unpopular in her own right. Ironically, they're two of Ikuhara's personal favourites.
** [[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap]]: Many end up [[Jerkass Woobie|pitying Nanami too much]] to hate her anymore by episodes 31 and 32.
