Somehow, this is one of the most wholesome things I've ever read.

I know that says a lot about me.

Wow! Hats off to the writing in this manga!

In case you blinked and missed it, Azul in this chapter explains Utena's power, her faults, her own weakness, while also looking baddass and taking names.

  • We learned that Utena's power is literally a warped form of "Love"
  • We also learned that Utena's love is one sided, she cannot accept love she can only give. This also reframes the title: - " Looking up to Magical Girls", as Utena feels herself beneath them.
  • And finally we learned that in their previous fight Azul only accepted Utena's "love", and could not return it, that's why she ended up in that state.

Funnily enough the key to beating Utena seems to be loving her back?!

That's brilliant, actually. Now I ship Utena x Azul even more...

...I don't think Azul can be considered an unbiased analyst, mind you. Though the paradigm works for her at least.

Also what ever happened to Enorme? Did Vena kill her?

It certainly looked like Vena had Gigant kill her, at least, although it's hard to know for sure, seeing how Vena is now also keeping Gigant as a personal secret weapon.

I do hope that Magenta gets more development soon. She's the least developed out of all the characters so far. I'm still holding out for Baiser x Magenta because I thought they were cute together in the beginning, but looks like they've been giving us a lot of Baiser x Azul instead haha.

This series just keeps getting better and better.

Well ... About this... the inspiration of Utena/Baiser is Kumiko and the inspiration of Sayo/Azul is Reina, so ... it's expected that the focus will be on them ... haha ​​...

interesting....

i mean, if it goes that way, it's fine with me haha. im just a sucker for leader x leader so that's usually my preferred ship (and their civilian interactions were really cute in the beginning of the story). I still want Magenta to get more development soon though!

So much happened in the last chapter that people people (including me) overlooked Azul's "It is too early for that" (i.e crying)

So goddamned cool.

You guys are shipping the comedic parts, and i honestly dont think Utena can have a healthy relationship with anyone from tres magia

I don't think she could have with Kiwi either. Utena's whole character is about BDSM and breaking magical girls. I don't think Utena view Kiwi other than an annoying partner.
