One day, a young girl grief stricken by the death of her parents
is saved from danger by a mysterious prince. He wipes away her tears
and tells the young one to live a strong and noble life, he
reassured her of their meeting again then vanished, leaving her with
a beautiful rose crest ring to remember him by.
Inspired by her mysterious prince Utena decides to become a
prince herself, but sometimes questions her decision to do so. Utena
grows into a strong-minded, iron willed teenager, with her own
unique style. Along her journey she makes lots of friends and just
as many rivals. The story of Revolutionary Girl Utena is one about
self-discovery and having the courage to stand up for what you
believe in.
"The Story of Utena has a bit of variation when it comes to how
she came by her rose crest ring and her magical meeting with the
prince. (Which is the base for the utena saga) Both the Manga and
the TV Series follow an extremely similar story line in the movie
however Utena is given the ring by a unique white rose and the story
of the prince turns it's focus to Touga.
