P.105 (Utena is dressed in a princess outfit, with a tiara on her head) Utena: When did I......? Utena: This is...... Utena: Anthy's...... rose bride dress, isn't it? Utena: Why am I......? (the members of student council appear on the dueling area) Touga: Tenjou, that outfit......! P.106 Akio: Tenjou Utena has become my rose bride. Touga: But isn't Tenjou the final champion? She's supposed to obtain the sword of Dios-- Akio: The sword of Dios, Akio: and the power of Dios, were only able to be possessed by me from the very beginning, members of student council. Akio: The final champion was intended to become my rose bride from the beginning as well. (Akio supports Utena by her back, and holds one hand over her face) Utena: Ah...... P.107 Utena: What...... are you doing? Utena: My chest...... it hurts...... Akio: Recite what I say within your own heart... Akio: "Power of Dios which sleeps within me". Utena: ......

Juri: Some sort of barrier......? Miki: Ah... Miki: My rose signet is gone. It was just there a moment ago...... Juri: Mine too. Saionji: Mine too. Akio: [hahahaha] Touga: ! (the rings float above Akio's hand) Akio: These rings were only in your possession to help me look for Tenjou Utena. Akio: You were my lures. Therefore I will take them back now. P.116 Akio: This school, the duels, the rose bride, Akio: everything was a tool for me to find Tenjou Utena. Akio: Only she received a ring directly from Dios. Akio: Unlike all of you. (he touches Utena's face) Akio: She was truly chosen, this beautiful star of miracles. P.117 Akio: She exists for me and shines for me. She is meant to be mine, and act as the key to unlock Dios' power. She will open the door to that castle which Dios shut himself into. Utena: "Shut himself into"...? Utena: Is Dios really...... inside that castle? Akio: He is a prince...... in a sleep of death. P.118 Utena: A sleep...... of death? Akio: Without seeing, without thinking, without feeling, Akio: only his body does not decay. He spends time out of time, always on the brink of death. Akio: In other words, he is the same as that. Utena: That......? P.119 (Akio points to a coffin floating in the air) P.120 (Anthy rests in it, upside-down) Utena: Anthy......?! P.121 Akio: Anthy's role as the rose bride has ended. Akio: She existed merely to be the sheathe for the sword of Dios. Akio: Anthy's only value was to lead you to this point. Akio: From now on, Akio: you are my rose bride. Akio: I am sure that you will be even more spendid of a rose bride than Anthy was. P.122 ~Akio: Than Anthy was...... Saionji: You bastard! You......! How can you call yourself her older brother?! (Saionji throws himself against the force field) Utena: ...... Saionji? Touga: Hey. Saionji: Anthy...... Give Anthy back to me! P.123 Saionji: How can you leave her to this fate...... when she has done all this for you........?! Utena: Anthy...!! Akio: As her brother, it makes me happy to see you care about her so much, boy. (Utena knocks the sword out of his hands and grabs it) Akio: Utena-san! P.124 Akio: Give me back the sword. Utena: No! Utena: Didn't you...... love Anthy? Akio: Anthy knew that this was the way it was going to be. Utena: Liar! Utena: How could you... do such a cruel thing?! Akio: Anthy was a very obedient girl. Akio: You should understand that too. Akio: She was willing to devote everything to me. P.125 ~Anthy: If... my brother asked me to give him my life, I would die for him... ~Anthy: I am the rose bride. As the victor of the duel, I now belong to you. ~Anthy: Utena-sama, this is my friend Chuchu. ~Anthy: I would like to try making more friends...... ~Anthy: Let's be friends always. P.126 Utena: Anthy. Utena: Anthy. ~Anthy: The rose bride, to you...... Utena: Anthy. (Utena starts crying) Akio: ........ Utena-san. P.127 (he takes the sword back) Akio: You are the rose bride now. A sword doesn't suit you anymore. Akio: Princesses are not supposed to do the rescuing. Akio: Rather, let us go up to the castle in the sky together. Akio: As the evening-star princess and the daybreak prince, Akio: the two of us will rule the night. (he kisses her) Akio: ! (blood trickles down from Akio's lip where Utena bit him) Utena: Goodbye. P.128 Akio: It will be lonely going by myself. Akio: Even if it does mean that the power to revolutionize the world will be mine only. (he raises his sword, and energy shoots up from the dueling forest into the sky) P.129 (a beam of energy extends between the dueling platform and the floating castle) (the student council all lie on the floor, while Utena stands in front of Anthy's coffin) Juri: Ug... [my head is pounding...] Miki: Are you alright? Saionji: Did Ohtori go up to the floating castle while we were unconscious? Saionji: If he obtains the power of Dios everything will be over...... Touga: Tenjou...... P.130 (Utena scratches at the coffin desperately, causing her hands to bleed) Utena: Anthy, I'm sorry...... this is all my fault. Utena: After I said I'd protect you-- Utena: I...... was seduced by Akio-san. Utena: And now I've done something irreversible........ P.131 Saionji: That's right. This is all your fault, Tenjou Utena. Miki: Saionji-san? It's not Utena-san's fault. This is all because "the end of the world" wanted the power of Dios, right? Juri: That's right. Juri: He treated his sister as a sheathe for the sword of Dios. Juri: What does he take a woman for anyway? How dare he take us for fools. Touga: No...... we all certainly were foolish. Juri: Touga...... Touga: We acted like ignorant children, and thus it was easy for the chairman to use us. Touga: It was the same...... with Himemiya and Tenjou. P.132 Utena: I was such an idiot! Damn it...... damn...... (she tears at her clothes) Utena: This dress...... the rose bride-- Utena: I never meant to take them from you...... Utena: Anthy! P.133 Utena: I'm sorry...... I'm sorry. I...... (Touga tries to restrain her) Touga: Tenjou! Stop it. You're bleeding. Utena: Let me go... Touga: Your rose signet is...... Utena: This thing........ I don't need it anymore! (she takes off the ring and throws it away) Utena: I'm not... worthy of it. Touga: Tenjou......! (the ring bounces along the floor, then floats back into the air) P.134 (it rises up towards the castle, and Dios descends reaching for it) Utena: Dios...... P.135 Utena: Dios......! (she reaches her arms up toward him) P.136 (Dios slips the rose signet back onto her finger) Utena: Dios? (he bestows power into her hands) P.137 (and she smashes the glass coffin) Saionji: The coffin...... shattered......! P.138 (The splinters fuse together into a sword. Utena grabs it by the hilt, and Dios ascends back up to the castle.) P.139 Saionji: Anthy......? (Anthy lies on the ground) Anthy: ... Nn. P.140 (Utena stands near her, dressed in her dueling uniform and holding the sword) Anthy: Utena......-sama? (Anthy puts her glasses back on) P.141 Anthy: ... Why did I come back to life? (they stare at eachother for a moment, then Utena hugs her) Utena: Anthy!! I'm sorry......! Utena: Even though I said I was your friend, I didn't understand you at all. Utena: Not your pain, or your worries, or anything about you...... P.142 Anthy: (pointing to the sword) ........ What is this? Utena: Dios gave it to me...... He saved us. Anthy: ........ Dios did? Utena: Akio-san has ascended to the castle in the sky. Anthy: My older brother Anthy: is planning to kill Dios. Anthy: Once he kills him, he will receive his power. P.143 Utena: I won't let him kill Dios. Utena: Will you guide me into the castle? Anthy: ........ Yes. Anthy: Let us go, Utena-sama. P.144 (filler page) (Utena with sword raised)
