Revolutionary Girl Utena: The Manga Reaction!
Chapter Three: Manga Reaction Boogaloo!
"So... the third chapter is out?" Juri noted.
Juri and Shiori had kind of settled in as house guests after they had just showed up. Which was basically fine with Utena and Anthy, other than Juri being a bit of a bathroom hog.
"Lunch, anyone?" Shiori suggested.
Miracle of miracles, Shiori could COOK. Which was a very good thing as Anthy was horrid at it, and neither Juri or Utena had much skill at it.
"Please," Utena grinned. She looked at Juri, "Yeah, the third issue came in the mail. It appears to involve Miki and Kozue, this time..."
"Oh dear," Juri sighed.
After lunch, the group settled down and tried to read it. Apparently it opened to a alumni reunion...
"Does a reunion even make SENSE, considering the timeline?" Kozue asked.
"I try not to think about it. It gives me a headache," Anthy noted.
They read onward... "Wait. Kozue is sleep walking, cross dressing as Miki and PLAYING THE PIANO? While ASLEEP?" Utena blinked. "What."
"Magic. Or Dios. Bet on it," Juri sighed.
"Whee, incest. Again," Anthy sighed. "I swear, the artist and creators are totally hung up on it..."
"Why are you there as a child?" Shiori asked Utena.
"Fuck if I know," Utena sighed.
"Then we have the required duel...," Juri noted as they read.
"Utena drops from the Castle as a adult..." Shiori observed.
"Kozue wakes up, she and Miki finish their duet and Utena finally finds Anthy..." Juri finished.
The four women digested that. "Well, it didn't make sense," Anthy noted, "but I'm glad we got a happy ending."
"Yeah," Utena took her hand.
"So... do you think Kozue will keep trying to jump Miki's bones?" Shiori drawled.
Everyone looked at her.
"Way to spoil the moment," Juri noted.
"Sorry," Shiori shrugged.
End
Notes: Wasn't planning to do part three as the first two chapters annoyed me so much. But eh, decided why not. Story, again, REALLY doesn't make much sense, but at least we got Anthy and Utena back together at the end. So there's that.
