Shoujo Kakumei Utena P.50-82 P.50 (at school) Kaidou: Your "peropero-kun" has appeared? Utena: Uhuh! His name's Wakaouji-san. Utena: He a college student who's assisting my aunt. He wears a ring just like the one I have. And he brought a rose with that same fragrance. Utena: He came to meet me, just like the letter said. Kaidou: No way. I don't believe it...... P.51 Utena: You're the type who can't believe in dreams. I feel sorry for you, Kaidou. Kaidou: Then introduce him to me, Utena. Kaidou: Besides, why would a man wear a ring and carry roses around? Kaidou: He sounds like a real weirdo to me. Utena: The ring comes from his days as a student. Utena: The most exceptional students received them. Utena: He brought the rose for my aunt, who's a really big fan of roses. Isn't that sweet of him? Kaidou: Keh! Kaidou: ...... Did he ever say "I came to see you"? Utena: Well... P.52 Utena: It was sort of like... he said he "wanted to meet me" before I go to Amsterdam. Kaidou: Amsterdam? Kaidou: Why are you going abroad? Utena!! Utena: It can't be helped. It's for the sake of my aunt's work. It's a very big project, you know. (in Hououshi) Utena: Look, they've already started moving her the contents of her office. P.53 Kaidou: So... you're going? Utena: We leave mid June, and will be there for about two years I guess...? Kaidou: That long? Utena: Uhuh. employee: Oh, Utena-chan. It's been a while since you've come to the office to hang out. Utena: Good afternoon. Um... is the part-timer Wakaouji-san here at the moment? employee: Yes, I think he's helping Yurika-san clean up the book shelves. employee: I've got to go to the bank to take care of some business. Utena: Ok. P.54 Kaidou: I think I'll go home. Utena: Hey, we came here because said you wanted to meet him, didn't we? voice: Please... take me to Amsterdam with you as your assistant! (Utena and Kaidou peer into Yurika's office) voice: I want to keep learning under you, Yurika-san, but... it's not just that. I-- P.55 (they see Wakaouji kissing Utena's aunt in the dim lighting) P.56 Utena: "I like... strong women". Utena: He was talking about my aunt... (Utena drops her school bag) Yurika: Utena...?! Wakaouji: Utena-chan! (and runs out of the room) Kaidou: ...... P.57 Kaidou: You... Kaidou: pervert...! (Kaidou punches Wakaouji, then runs after Utena) Yurika: Are you alright, Wakaouji-kun? Wakaouji: ? Utena: I had no idea that they were-- P.58 Utena: Why are you crying, Utena? Utena: It's not their fault that he doesn't love me. Utena: But still... Utena: I feel sad... P.59 Kaidou: Dammit... Where did she go? Kaidou: She runs so fast, so I couldn't keep up with her. Kaidou: She must've been shocked. Where would she go...? (Utena leans on the rail of a bridge, which crosses over a fence and canal. The hole in the fence still hasn't been fixed after 6 years.) P.60 Utena: Somehow, I've ended up here... Utena: At the place where I met "peropero-kun" six years ago. Utena: I still haven't grown up. Utena: I haven't changed since then. Utena: From the small girl who had lost her parents... (a little girl with pig-tails is walking around in the rain crying) girl: Mama... Mama, where are you? Utena: A lost child...? P.61 Utena: The same as me back then. Utena: What's wrong? Have you lost your mama? Utena: I'll help you find her. (the girl backs away near the hole in the fence) Utena: Don't run away, I won't hurt you. Utena: It's dangerous over there. There's a hole and... (the girl falls into the hole) girl: ! (Kaidou is walking around near the canal) Kaidou: Utena? P.62 (Utena catches the wrist of the falling girl) Utena: Reach up with your other hand too... (the girl tries to reach up) girl: Ah...ah... Utena: You can do it. Utena: Just a little more... (Utena's knee slips on the grass near the ledge) Utena: ...! P.63 (Kaidou, from the opposite side of the canal, witnesses Utena falling with the little girl) Kaidou: Utenaaa! Kaidou: Ute...na...? P.64 Kaidou: Nothing's... floating to the... surface. Kaidou: No... No. Kaidou: It can't be. Hey... Kaidou: Hey... Kaidou: Utena... voice: Mama! P.65 (the little pig-tailed girl hugs her mother) Kaidou: ... That's the girl that fell with Utena...? (nearby a mysterious figure holds Utena in his arms) Kaidou: Utena...?! P.66 (Kaidou runs to examine Utena, who's now lying on the ground) Kaidou: You're alive? Hey... Answer me. Utena? Utena: Uh... Kaidou: Utena... (Kaidou looks up at the mysterious figure) Kaidou: Huh? Kaidou: A... Are you? P.67 (the mysterious man disappears suddenly) Utena: Nn... Utena: ...... What am I... doing here? Kaidou? P.68 Utena: Last I remember, the girl had fallen through the fence. I tried to save her and then fell in too... Kaidou: You don't remember? The girl's safe. She went home with her mother. Utena: Don't tell me...... you rescued me? Kaidou: If I did save your life, Kaidou: would you think of me the same way you think of your peropero-kun? Utena: I don't treasure my peropero-kun because he saved my life. P.69 Utena: He gave me something beautiful. Utena: He taught me the courage to live bravely. Utena: That's why I... Even if Wakaouji-san loves my aunt more than me, I still think I've been given a blessing. Kaidou: Utena... Wakaouji-san isn't your "peropero-kun". P.70 Kaidou: Peropero-kun is still out there somewhere. Kaidou: He's probably the person who saved you a moment ago. It wasn't Wakaouji-san anyway. Utena: Kaidou? Kaidou: When I found you, you were in his his arms. Kaidou: The rainy sky suddenly cleared, and he stood within the brilliant light. Kaidou: It was bright, so I couldn't really see his face. Kaidou: He disappeared soon after I arrived... P.71 Kaidou: In his presence I smelled the same rose scent that was on those letters. Kaidou: He's different from a normal person. It was really mysterious. Utena: Mysterious... Utena: Like the feeling of dream? Kaidou: Like a daydream... P.72 Utena: That person... has saved me once again. Utena: I don't understand why, but... it seems that peropero-kun has been watching over me for a long time. P.73 Utena: And now he's out there somewhere. (breakfast at Utena's home) Yurika: ...... Yurika: Um, Utena. Yurika: About what happened before, That was... Utena: It's alright with me, for the three of us to go to Amsterdam. Utena: I'm off to school. P.74 Utena: I really like both you and Wakaouji-san. Yurika: ....... (at a library) Utena: Peropero-kun exists. Utena: He wanted to meet me, Utena: and now I want to see him again. Utena: No matter what, I'm going to find him. P.75 Utena: But, where is he? Utena: My only clues are these seven letters. Kaidou: You still haven't figured out where he is? Utena: Kaidou. Kaidou: You want to see him that much? Utena: You know where he is? Kaidou: I lied to you earlier. I had figured it out. Utena: Huh? Kaidou: You're about to go overseas anyway, so I'll tell you the truth. P.76 Kaidou: The cards are all postcards with writing on the back and a picture on the front. But... Kaidou: The important part isn't the messages, it's the pictures. Utena: I thought they were just... scenery photos from some foreign country. Kaidou: If you exclude the most recent card, you can arrange the remaining ones to form a puzzle. (together the cards form a bird's-eye view of a large majestic-looking buiding) Kaidou: Ohtori Academy. Kaidou: It's a famous school in Hououshi. It's also Wakaouji-san's alma mater. P.77 Utena: This... Kaidou: The most important part is on this year's card. Kaidou: It's a photograph of white roses, the same type that Wakaouji-san gave to your aunt. Kaidou: And over here in the picture there's a plate with the breed name of the rose on it...... Utena: I can't read it. What does it say? Kaidou: I looked it up. Kaidou: It's Latin... It translates to "I wait for you here". Utena: "I wait for you... here". P.78 Utena: "I'll... wait for the day that you come to me". Utena: ... I-- Utena: I'm not going to Amsterdam. I'm going to transfer to Eitoku Academy. Utena: Thank you for telling me all this. Utena: You've done a lot for me up til now... P.79 (Utena sees Kaidou's sad face) Utena: Kaidou... (she takes off his glasses) P.80 Kaidou: Ute...na? (Utena kisses/licks the tears from Kaidou's face) Utena: Thank you. Utena: Now I've given you the strength that peropero-kun gave to me. Utena: You're my favorite friend. P.81 Utena: I'm going to search for him on my own. (Kaidou watches Utena walk away) Utena: I don't know what's waiting for me there. Utena: But, surely-- P.82 Utena: this is the prologue to tomorrow.
