Want to be a "Prince"

Compared with a "Princess" who get protected
"Haa!"

It’s better to be a "Prince"

Utena: "I won!"

Girl students: "UTENA-SAMAAA!"
Girl students: "Super cool!"

Girl students: "Yaa…sampai!  The basketball tournament with boys is finished?"
Utena: "Yeah, almost."

Girl students: "Ah…. What a waste for Utena-sama to be a girl! <3"
Girl students: "Not only she is good at every sports, she also very kind."

Girl student: "Even when she's been warned by teachers that she can't wear a pink school jacket, she doesn't care a bit. She is really cool. <3"
Girl student: "She is the hero of the intermediate division!  <3"

Boy basketball players: "Che!" (sound of showing disagreement and jealous)

Half a year ago…
I came to this boarding school far away from people.
[A girl student:  "Utena!"]

Page 88

To search for something very important to me---
Utena:  "…That is?"

Utena:  "Came to the entrance of the forest.  Because it is so big, it is very easy to get lost."
Utena: "Oh…"

Page 89

Somebody’s here

I can ask for direction…
Utena: "!"
 

What?  Why suddenly---
Those 2 person…

Oyy…

Page 90

Great!  Somebody is here to stop…
Utena: "hoo!"
Wakaba: "U-TE-NA!"

Page 91

Wakaba: "Super lucky! <3  I've checked the class change notice.  After promotion to Intermediate 2, I can still be in the same class with you."

Utena: "Wakaba… you are very heavy. *sweatdrop*"
Wakaba: "What are you watching?  Ahh…"

Wakaba: "It's Senior division year 2, Saionji-sama…"

Utena: "Saionji?  The one with wavy hair?  That one with straight hair is President of the Student Council, right?"
Utena: "His name should be Kiryuu…Touga."

Wakaba: "Utena, how could you!?"
Wakaba: "You know about the President of the Student Council, but don't know about the Vice-President of the Student Council, the captain of the Kendo club, Saionji-sama?"

Page 92

 Utena: "Can’t help!  I just transferred here half a year ago.  That girl is?"

Wakaba: "Ahh…"
Wakaba: "That's Himemiya Anshii!"

Utena: "Himemiya…"
Wakaba: "Among the elite of the Student Council, she is the only one who doesn’t know anything, only knows to look after the roses, and also she is a girl with a dark personality.  If I don't remember wrong, starting from today, she would be in the same class as us!"

Utena: "Saionji… and that one called Himemiya are dating?"

Wakaba: "How can that be, nevermind the playboy Kiryuu-sama, how would the tough-personality Saionji-sama be interested in a girl like this!  They are together only because they are Student Council members!"

Utena: "……"

Page 93

Utena: "Ahh…  It's the type that Wakaba like…"

Wakaba: "Waa… You are actually jealous!  Don't worry, there is only Utena in my heart!"
Wakaba: "It's true!  It's true!  It's really true!"

Touga: "I, being the President of the Student Council, would like to give some advice to members.  Therefore I'd like you two to be present as well."

Page 95

"Saionji Kyouichi and his Bride"
"Come forward"

Touga: "Saionji!  We Student Council members are all elected according to the rules of the 'Rose Signet'.  But the way you have been treating Himemiya is too violent.  That's against the rules."

Saionji: "Nothing like that!  She is my Bride.  I can freely treat her the way I want!"
Touga: "Wrong!"

Page 96

Touga: "The rules of the 'Rose Signet' are---"
Touga: "Decided by the 'Ends of the World'."

Miki: "We are only the duelist granted opportunity by the 'Ends of the World'."

Juri: "Don't take it wrong and do whatever you wish.  SAIONJI!"

Page 97

Saionji: "---Humph!  That has nothing to do with the relationship between the two of us!"

Touga: "Saionji…"

Himemiya: "I… I currently belong to Saionji-sama…"

Himemiya: "I must follow everything Saionji-sama told me to do."

Touga: "…!"

Saionji: "mmm…  This is how the relationship between the 2 of us is.  Farewell."

Miki: "Would that be ok?  Give Himemiya-san to Saionji and let him do whatever he wishes…"

Page 98

Touga: "---Just as the rule said."
Touga: "Until there is somebody who can win the Bride in a duel, he is free to do whatever he wants to her.  Right now that’s nothing we can do."

The emblem of Ohtori Academy is very much like…
The Rose Signet ring…

A gift to the young me…
The first love---

Page 99

I cannot remember his name, his appearance…
But the fragrance of white rose
Only this pleasant fragrance is unforgettable…

In order to find him…
I came here…

Wakaba: "Hee! <3"

Wakaba: "Ahh!  Utena your sleeping face is also very pretty! <3"
Wakaba: "Ahh!  What's that?"
[Utena: "Very…heavy… *sweatdrops*"]

Wakaba: "Isn’t that a ring!?  Very pretty!"
Wakaba: "Why?  Could it be a guy who gave this to you…"

Utena: "…'This ring will guide you to my side.'"

Page 100

Utena: "That--- is what the Prince on a white horse told me…"

Hahahaha… (Wakaba laughing)

……
[Utena: "Err… *sweatdrops*"]

[Utena: "Nevermind if you don’t believe…" *sweatdrops*]
Wakaba: "Ahh…laugh so hard my tummy hurts!  Utena you made a good joke---"
Wakaba: "Eh?  What are those people doing?"

A male student: "Don’t know who's love letter got posted up!"

Page 101

Love letter!?

A male student: "Something something… 'Then in the dream, I danced with Saionji-sama, how silly I was!  You smiled gently at me…'."
[Another male student: "Woo!"]
[Another male student: "Good!"]
Bulletin board: The 19th Round, Senior High School Stagecoach…

Utena: "This is too mean…"

Utena: "Bad taste!"

Wakaba: "Utena…"

Page 102

Male Student: "Wh–wh-wh– huh?"
Another male student: "A love letter been posted, anybody would be curious to read!"

Utena: "Nobody can read!"

Utena: "WAKABA…!?"

Utena: "Could it possible that letter… is written by you, Wakaba?"

Utena: "Wrote to Saionji Kyouichi…?"

Wakaba:*nods*

Utena: "That rascal---"

Saionji: "I don’t know."

Saionji: "Not me."
Saionji: "Must be after I discarded it, somebody picked it up from the garbage can and posted it on the bulletin board."
Banner:…, Protect, Sincere, …

Page 104

Utena: "Why did you discard it at a place people can easily find it!?"
Saionji: "I have freedom to do so.  Letters that are sent to me, I have a right to decide how to handle them."

Saionji: "Besides, isn't it better to be posted?"
Saionji: "Like that kind of stupid…no, cheerful letters, it's best to let everyone to have fun with it!."

Saionji: "Haa!"

Page 105

Saionji: "---What?  You…"

Utena: "Today after school"
Utena: "I will duel with you."

Saionji: "So… you are the next challenger…"

Utena: "You want to fight or not?"

Saionji: "I understand."
Saionji: "After school--- meet me at forest of the dueling arena in the school campus."

The forest of the dueling arena---?

Page 106

Utena: "I remember the forest is entry prohibited… but there is no other entrance to the forest besides this…"

Utena: "Whew!  See!  It is really locked."

Utena: "!"

Utena: "What is going on?  This…"
Utena: "Can't pull my hands out!"

Page 107

Gi---gi---gi---  (the squeaking sound of the door)
Utena: "!"

Utena: "Why does it open all of a sudden?"

Utena: "Door with the rose crest"
Utena: "Rose ring---"

Utena: "What kind of secret plan this is…"
Utena: "Anyway, let me go see!…"

Utena: "Waa… There are roses everywhere and the fog…  Where is the dueling arena…"

Page 109

Utena: "!"

Utena: "Above the stairs……?"

Utena: "---What"

Utena: "This is…"

Page 110, page 111

Page 112

Utena: "Castle…?  A castle in the sky…"

Saionji: "Looks like this is the first time you see this castle."

Utena: "How can that be…"
Saionji: "A type of mirage--- you can see that as a type of magic."

Mirage…?
Magic---

Saionji: "However, besides members of the student council, there are other people who has also received the 'Rose Signet'?  Just like you---"

Utena: "'Rose Signet'?"

Page 113

Saionji: "This."

Utena: "…ring!?"

Saionji: "Anshii!  Prepare!"

That girl…

Anshii: "If the rose on your chest is scattered, you lose."

Utena: "Wait…"

Eh?
This fragrance…

Page 114

Exactly the same…
That time, spreading from that person's body
That rose fragrance---

Anshii: "Good luck!"

Utena: "!"

Page 115

Utena: "what are you doing!?"
Saionji: "…No kidding!  Wishing good luck to other people beside me.  What's the meaning of that!?"

Anshii: "…I'm sorry, Saionji-sama."

Utena: "Idiot! Being treated like that and still…"

Anshii: "…Saionji-sama is the current champion of the duel.  He has the right to treat me as he wishes."

Utena: "What’s the meaning of that!"
Utena: "Aren't you two lovers!?"

Saionji: "Ok…. Let's start!"

Page 116

Utena: "Don’t understand at all what's going on!"
Utena: "In any case, all I need is to defeat that guy!"

The magic
The ceremony
The costume
Anshii: "…Oh the Sword of the Roses!  The Power of Dios that sleep inside me…"
Student council members are really strange---

Anshii: "Answer to your master.  Appear now…!"

Page 117

Eh…?  Magic again…?

Saionji: "The power to revolutionize the world---"

Page 118

Utena: "!"

Utena: "Here I come…"

Page 119

Utena: "Haa!"

Saionji: "You are… quite good!"

Saionji: "Being a girl."

Saionji: "You think you are a prince who saves poor princesses?"

Saionji: "IMPERTINENT…"

Page 120

Utena: "How come…"
Utena: "That magic sword is real…?"

Saionji: "You are really something…  only bring a normal bamboo sword to challenge this 'Sword of Dios'!"

"Dios"…?
Utena: "What is this really about?"

Page 121

---He is serious…

Ohtori Academy Student council---

Strange…
Strange------
Everything is very strange!?

Page 122

Why must I…
Get involve in this strange duel!?

The winner of the duel controls over this girl, Himemiya Anshii, who will do everything as told.

Also, this…

Mirage castle…

Page 124

Saionji: "You don’t know this 'Sword of Dios'!?  How can you call yourself a duelist?"

Utena: "What Dios, what duelist, I don’t know anything!"
Utena: "I only…come here for my friend Wakaba!!"

Anshii: "Saionji-sama, looks like this person really knows nothing…"
Saionji: "Shut up!"

Saionji: "You are only my possession… silent!"

Page 125

This guy!

Utena: "How can you treat a girl as your possession!  It is lost only when the rose on the chest is scattered.  We don’t know who is victory or defeat yet!"

Saionji: "Oh… with only this bamboo sword, you still want to fight?"

Utena: "Er…"

Utena: "That…"
Saionji: "If you really wish, let me pierce through the white rose on your chest and let it stain with your blood!"

Page 126

Saionji: "If you can risk your life and have the courage to run towards me…  Please save the princess, the prince on a white horse!"

My prince---

With the fragrance of the white rose

When I was small
He saved my life

My tears
He used his lips to wipe away

Page 127

"The little one who endures the grief…
If you don't lose your strength and nobility
This ring will lead you to me"

No matter it’s a male or female

The person who has not lose the strength and nobility call be called
The 'Prince'

Page 128

Saionji: "---You want to continue?"

Saionji: "What…  with that thing…"

Page 129

Saionji: "You are serious…?"
Saionji: "In that case, I'll too…  Haa…!"

Page 130

Utena: "The rose on your chest---"
Utena: "is mine…!"

Page 131

Saionji: "The Sword of Dios…"

Page 132

Feels like--- it is drawn to my hand!

Saionji: "!"
Saionji: "It can't…be…"

Page 133

Saionji: "…What?  This is…"

Anshii: "…Dios!!"

Page 134

Utena: "Ooo…"
White rose’s---
Fragrance…

Feels like something is wrapping me up…
Something is moving me
The fragrance of rose---

"HAA!…"
Exploded---

Page 136

Saionji: "What was that, what was that…?"
Saionji: "The light just now…"

Touga: "---The first time…  The Sword of Dios is activated?"
Touga: "That's the Power of Dios that everyone desires?"

Utena: "What’s this all about…?"
Utena: "This sword is really…"

Page 137

Utena: "This sword… return to you.  It's yours, right?  For the time being… I won."

Touga: "What is--- your name?"
Utena: "Tenjou Utena"

Page 138

Touga: "Tenjou Utena"
Touga: "I'm in love with you!"

Utena: "No joking!  President of the Student Council."
Utena: "It's not time for that"

Touga:  Ha ha ha (laughing)

Anyhow---

Better leave this strange place!

Quick---

Page 139

Oh dear!  I forgot about Himemiya Anshii!

She should be okay
That girl---

Page 140

In the duel, I won---

I guess Saionji
Can't beat Himemiya anymore…

A girl student: "Utena-sama <3"
Another girl student: "Utena-sama, good morning!"
Utena: "Morning…"

Girl student: "?"
Another girl student: "Not the same as usual, ne?"

Same morning as usual
Same classroom as usual---

Page 141

Things happened yesterday

Is like a dream…

Himemiya Anshii!
[Anshii: "Good morning"]

She is acting like nothing happened
[Teacher: "It’s like this…"]

Was that really a dream…?
Wakaba: "U–te–na"

Utena: "Wakaba… you are heavier today than usual…"
Wakaba: "Utena!"

Page 142

Wakaba: "WAA…UTENA!"

Utena: "What it is?  That Saionji guy again?"
Wakaba: "No!  Don’t mention that again!"

Wakaba: "I'm always Utena's object!"
Utena: "Oh…. ok…"
Wakaba: "We have been in the same class and same room in the dormitory before.  But today, Utena is moving to the East Mansion!"
 

Utena: "---Room change?"

Sign: East Mansion

Wakaba: "East Mansion--- Rumor said it hasn’t been used for over 10 years…?"

Page 143

Utena: "---Why choose me…"
Wakaba: "Poor Utena."

Wakaba: "Rumor said not only there are mice, weasels, and also ghosts, and there are only single rooms!!"

Utena: "Wait… are you going there with me?"

Wakaba: "No!  I hate spider webs, cockroaches, and doodlebugs…"

Could it possibly because of…
Yesterday’s duel---?

Page 144

Utena: "Waa… It’s going to a need a lot of cleaning."

Sign:  21, Tenjou Utena

Utena: "---Here it is…"
Utena: "It must be super dirty inside…"

Utena: "Darn it!  They make me do 10 years worth of cleaning!"

Page 145

Utena: "What happened??  So clean…"

Anshii: "I'm Sorry!  Utena-sama!"

Anshii: "Very soon…  I'll finish all the cleaning!"
Utena: "!"

Utena: "---Why are you doing this?"
Anshii: "This is my…"
Anshii: "…Ahh…"

Anshii: "I forgot!"

Kaki…kaki… (the noise of the marker writing)

Sign:  21, Tenjou Utena, Himemiya Anshii
Utena: "……"
Anshii: "From today, according to the rule of the 'Rose Signet', I'm living with you."

Anshii: "Because I’m the 'Rose Bride'."
Anshii: "Me and the Sword of Dios belongs to you, who won the duel!"

Anshii: "Utena-sama is given the right to treat me as you wish.  No matter what it is, I'll obey."
"Bride"...

Page 147

"I'm your belonging—"
Anshii: "The cleaning is done.  Anything else you want?  Tea is ready on the table…"

Utena: "It’s a joke, right?"

Anshii: "You must be tired.  I’ll prepare the bed."
Utena: "!"

Utena: "Wait a minute!"
Utena: "You said the 'according to the rules', could it be…  You and Saionji lived in the same room?"

Anshii: "To engage with the champion of the duel, that's my job."

Utena: "What’s the meaning of 'Engage'…  No matter which guy wins the duel, you'll become his belonging?  Like when Saionji treated you as his possession, you don’t even care?"

Page 148

Anshii: "……"

Anshii: "The rules of the 'Rose Signet', I have to absolutely obey…"

Anshii: "---Is it trouble?  For us to stay here…"

She looks so depressed…

Utena: "That's not what I mean…. Eh?"

Utena: "You said 'us'.  Anybody else here?"
Anshii: "Yes."
3 tea cup…?

Page 149

Utena: "Where?"

The cup (moving) on it own…

"Rumor said there are ghosts"
Could it be…

[Little animal: "Chu!"]

Page 150

Utena: "Monkey?"

Anshii: "Let me introduce.  This is my friend ChuChu."
Utena: "Your pet?"

Anshii: "A friend"
Utena: "...I see"

"Friend"…

Utena: "Please have this, ChuChu."

Utena: "I’m Tenjou Utena"
Utena: "Can I be your friend too?"

Page 151

[ChuChu: "Chu!"]

Utena: "Nice to meet you, ChuChu."
[ChuChu: "Hu!"]

Anshii: "This is the first time ChuChu gets so close to human, Utena-sama."
Utena: "I… would like to ask you something, Anshii…"

Page 152

Utena: "What is the deal with this ring?  I can use it to open the entrance to the forest!  Saionji has one too!"

Anshii: "That is the seal for those who qualify for the duel, and also the key to open the entrance.  Everyone in the Student Council possesses one."

Anshii: "As the current champion of the duel, Utena! Other Student Council members will come to challenge you for the next duel."
Utena: "No joking!  Duel again…"
Utena: "'Rose Signet' that kind of stupid rules are decided by the Student Council?"

Page 153

Utena: "I will not follow that kind of rules!"
Utena: "That strange castle and the trick of the Sword of Dios… also what the planning of the Student Council is.  I’m going to find out everything!"

Anshii: "Don’t do that!  Utena-sama!  Utena-sama doesn’t know frightening the Student Council can be…"

Utena: "That…"
Utena: "I'm going to find out!"

Utena: "And you… I feel sorry for you."

Anshii: "Utena-sama!?"

Page 154

First go to that dueling arena---
And then…

---The President of the Student Council

Ask that guy directly would be faster and easier!
Utena: "Change strategy."

Utena: "I'm here… Where are you…"

That is…

Page 156

Resembling…
My prince…

Who is it?  I want to see his face.

Touga: "You called?"
Utena: "Student Council President…"

Page 157

Utena: "That person, who is he---"
Utena: "!"

Page 158, page 159

Page 160

Utena: "!"

Page 161

Utena: "Mmm…"

Utena: "You…"

Utena: "Playboy!!"

Page 161

Utena: "Just as the rumor said, you’ll hit on anybody, no matter who that is."

Disappeared…
The person who looked very much like my prince…

Touga: "There is nobody here!  In the Rose Garden, besides Student Council member, nobody is allowed to enter."
[Tonga: "Oh…painful!  The rose thorn…" *sweatdrop*]

Touga: "You have something to ask me?  For example, about the 'Rose Signet' on your finger…"

Page 162

Touga: "I posses one too.  The seal for the those who is qualified to join the game."

Utena: "Game?"
Touga: "I mean the duel."

Utena: "A game that make Himemiya Anshii the price of the duel?"

Utena: "Who started a game like that? You?  Student Council President."
Tonga: "How could it be!"

Page 163

Tonga: "It's the 'Ends of the World'…"
Tonga: "Who decided."

"The Ends of
The World"?

Page 164

Touga: "One day, one-sidedly chosen by the 'Ends of the World', the letter with the Rose Signet was sent…"
Touga: "Following the instructions on the letter, the gate of the dueling arena was opened by this ring."

Utena: "…I did receive letters, but it wasn't written this way on them."

Touga: "At least the Student Council members are gathered here for this reason."

Utena: "Why do people duel…"

Touga: "To own the Sword of Dios that is possessed by the Rose Bride."

Utena: "Is it interesting to have that kind of thing?  All it comes with is Himemiya and the monkey!"
Touga: "…The Sword of Dios is---"

Page 165

Touga: "A sword that would choose its owner.  Rather the sword has power itself, it harmonizes with the bearer and displays the power!"
Touga: "Continuously winning the duel, the hero who engages with the Rose Bride will displays the strongest power of Sword of the Ruler!"
Touga: "Soon, the hero will be able to reach that illusive castle."
Touga: "And obtain the power to revolutionize the world------ The power of Dios."

Page 166

Utena: "…'Revolution'?  This is unimaginable!"

Touga: "You have also seen it!  The power of Dios, a portion of it---"

That time---

Page 167

Utena: "That…"
Utena: "was really amazing."

Touga: "When someone who is not a Student Council member--- activated the power of the Sword of Dios…"
Touga: "I was really surprise!"

Touga: "Somewhere inside you…"
Touga: "such thing is sleeping here"

Touga: "I really want to know!"

Utena: "!"

Page 168

Utena: "Next time… I dare you to try touching me again!"
Utena: "I won't let you go that easy!"

Utena: "I'm leaving!"
Touga: "---This weekend, there will be a dance party in the campus…"

[Utena: "What's this nonsense!"]

Touga: "If you want to know the true face of the 'Ends of the World'… Come!"

Page 169

Touga: "I'll wait for you."

Utena: "Who wants go to what dance!"

That annoying guy…!!
He doesn’t love me but kisses me…

Page 170

My first kiss
Is with that guy
Tenjou Utena’s mistake of the whole life!
[Utena: "Goshi…goshi" (the noise of wiping her mouth hard)]

Saionji: "Why!? Anshii!!"

Saionji and Himemiya---

Anshii: "I'm sorry, Saionji-sampai.  But right now I'm engaged with Utena-sama."
Saionji: "Then, our engagement was a lie?"

Anshii: "No.  But that is over."

Page 171

Saionji: "You should be ashamed!"
[ChuChu: "Chu!"]

Utena: "!"

Utena: "Saionji!!  You are the one who should be ashamed."

Anshii: "… Utena-sama!"

Page 172

Utena: "Himemiya is only following the rules of the Rose Signet of the Student Council!  If you are the Vice-president of the Student Council, you should accept your defeat!"
Utena: "Otherwise, challenge me in a proper duel!"

Utena: "I'll accept it!"

Saionji: "Grr…"

Utena: "That guy"
Utena: "Is very serious about Himemiya!"

ChuChu: "Humph!"

Page 173

Anshii: "…Utena-sama, didn't you say you hate dueling…"
Utena: "Even now, I still hate it!"

Utena: "But…I know it is not possible to avoid."
Unnoticed…
I came to the middle of these….

Utena: "Right now, that all I know…"
Utena: "But I won’t run away.  I know someday I'll understand everything."

Page 174

Utena: "Anshii, how did you become the Rose Bride?"

Anshii: "…I don’t know.  I only know, right from the beginning, I'm the Rose Bride."

Utena: "You don’t worry about the reason at all?"
Anshii: "Right… I have never thought of that at all."

Anshii: "However, I don’t hate being the Rose Bride at all!"

Utena: "You are a strange person!"
Anshii: "Utena-sama?"

Utena: "I don't dislike you either!"

Page 175

Utena: "So, don't say no more 'Utena-sama' and 'engage'!"
Anshii: "But I'm engaged to Utena-sama!"

[Girls: "Eh…!?  It couldn't be!  Utena-sama is wearing FEMALE CLOTHING?"]
[Girls: "Really cute <3  Utena-sama!"]

Utena: "That's why I said I'm not wearing like this!"
Anshii: "I'm sorry, Utena-sama."

Touga: "Ahh!  You have come!  Isn’t that pretty!?"
Touga: "I really have the taste to pick female clothes.  Turn around this way and let me see!  It suits you very much!"

Anshii: "Kiryuu-sampai.  Thanks you very much for giving me a dress a well."
Touga: "Eh?"

Touga: "I only sent Tenjou Utena a dress, but Himemiya's…"
