Revolutionary Girl Utena

Revolutionary Girl Utena

Neon Alley confirmed through its newsletter over the weekend that the linear dub service will be bringing the English language version of Revolutionary Girl Utena to the network this fall. The series, originally released by Central Park Media years ago and then rescued and given the Japanese remastered version a release in strong limited edition box set releases by Nozomi Entertainment, has long been a fan favorite and holds up well to this day. The series, is based on the best selling manga by Chiho Saito and directed by Kunihiko Ikuhara ( Sailor Moon S and Sailor Moon Super S).

Neon Alley will be providing more information in the future as broadcast dates are finalized.

Plot concept: “Never lose that strength or nobility, even when you grow up.” When Utena was just a child and in the depths of sorrow, she found salvation in those words. They were the words of a prince, who wrapped her in his rose-scented embrace and bestowed upon her both a ring and the promise that it would lead her to him again. She never forgot the encounter. In fact, she was so impressed that she aspired to be like the prince and also help those in need.

Now a spirited teenager, Utena attends the prestigious Ohtori Academy; however, her strong sense of chivalry soon places her at odds with the school’s student council and thrusts her into a series of mysterious and dangerous duels against its members.
