My Top Ten Anime OTPs

(plus a bonus OT3!)

Orochimaru x Anko - Naruto

My one ship to rule them all! As far as I'm concerned, they have reconciled and are now an official couple in the Boruto timeline.

Juri x Shiori x Ruka - Revolutionary Girl Utena

They live as a tender, loving, polyamorous triad, rent free inside my head. It has been decided. I have spoken!

Saionji x Wakaba - Revolutionary Girl Utena

Saionji is Wakaba's true prince. She loved him despite his flaws. Why wouldn't she give him another chance after the Revolution, when he's matured into a kinder, calmer person? What, should she end up with that nice guy, Tatsuya, who also hurt her and for whom she feels no passion?

Mitsuki x Chocho - Boruto: Naruto Next Generations

They're the only reason I watched Boruto! Give me more MitsuCho!

Zabuza x Haku - Naruto

I think Haku was always secretly in love with Zabuza, whereas Zabuza forced himself not to care about anything apart from fighting and his own ambition. Even reanimated, he didn't want Haku to know he cared about him. So tragic! I want to see them reincarnated into better circumstances, where they can be together, in peace. That's why I like to imagine Iwabe and Denki are their present incarnations.

L x Misa - Death Note

This one's weird. I used to hate L's guts, yet I found him hot in a messed up/ prison fantasy sort of way. Then a few months back, I read some L x Misa fics and started to prefer him to Light. Maybe it's just AU versions of L? I still think he was pretty much as bad as Light, but at least, like Misa, he had a tragic background that drove him. Light was just an ego-maniac. And of course, I've always adored Misa!

Sebastian x Mey-Rin - Kuroshitsuji / Black Butler

My most recent otp. I had some knowledge of the series and thought Sebastian was hot. But oh, when I sat down to watch the first episode, it was nearly instantaneous! The klutzy, nervous, redheaded maid who pines for him... I want these two to get together! I need it!

Zagato x Princess Emeraude - Magic Kinght Rayearth

My second anime otp ever, from back in the 90s. Along with ZabuHaku, this one still makes me cry. It's so, so sad! And Zagato is still one of the sexiest characters in anime!

Gaara x Matsuri - Naruto

I don't know why this ship gets so much hate. (I've gathered a lot of it is from fangirls with Sue-ish OCs. Being someone who resembles and identifies strongly with Gaara, I feel no personal attraction to him. Maybe I think Matsuri is cute and sweet?) I thought they were so adorable together in the Four Celestials filler arc and have shipped them since.

Neji x Tenten - Naruto

I'm still jaded by Neji's death. So much lost potential! And it's cruel that Tenten did get to be like Tsunade, but in the worst way; they both lost their men to a war while fighting beside them.

Sailor Uranus x Sailor Neptune - Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon

My very first anime ship! Haruka and Michiru are still the yardstick by which all OTPs should be measured.

Revolutionary Girl Utena [Timeline - Pt1]

Attempts to categorize the canon events in the best of my abilities.

1978

November 11th: Mikage turns 17 years old.

Mamiya is born in the same years as Mikage, which is 1960.

1979

January 23rd: Ruka’s birth

April

April 1st: Souji Mikage meets the Chida siblings

April 30th

Mamiya Chida dies from illness

Mikage burns the Research Building, then commits suicide by going back in there.

Tokiko is 19-20 yrs old in 1979.

1980

April 2nd: Kanae’s birth

1981

June 4th: Touga’s birth

September 25th: Saionji’s birth

1982

December 1st: Juri’s birth

1983

February 2nd: Shiori’s birth

May 25th: Masaomi & Koto left the school when they were caught together by Chairman Ohtori’s wife.

August

August 23rd: Chigusa receives an invitation to Koto & Masaomi’s wedding.

August 25th

Wedding Day of Masaomi & Koto

Chigusa burns the Old Fencing Hall, then commits suicide by staying inside there.

December 29th: Utena’s birth

1984

March 14th: Wakaba’s birth

March 28th: Yukiko’s birth

1985

May 28th: Miki & Kozue’s birth

August 8th: Nanami’s birth

1988

July 10th: Mitsuru’s birth

1990

May

Touga and Saionji met Utena by finding her in a coffin. Though they weren’t able to convince her to leave the casket on that rainy night. The next day, those two noticed a certain look in the girl’s eyes. Seeing something has changed in Utena that neither of them couldn’t do for her.

Utena’s parent’s died in an accident, leaving her orphaned. On that rainy night, she lost the will to live. Until she subconsciously met Akio/Dios and Anthy. From that fateful encounter, Utena found her strength to live. The next day, Utena attends the funeral with her legal guardian. Her aunt named Yurika, who chose to take her in.

Aunt Yurika stated, “Utena’s parents died when she was six. I was still young myself… and I couldn’t explain it to her.” Meaning that Yurika must have been 21 years old at the time. However, an age requirement on becoming a legal guardian to someone’s child is 18 and above.

1996

January 23rd: Ruka turns 17 years old.

February 2nd: Shiori’s turns 13 years old.

On that year, Shiori fell into a river. Juri dives in and saved her, then places Shiori at the riverside. However, Juri loss the strength to swim towards the surface. Until Ruka swam to Juri in attempts to rescue her. The next day, bad news occurred at Ohtori Private Academy Hospital. Juri wakes up from the hospital bed, finding out that Ruka died saving her. She can hear it from Shiori’s cries, asking why he would that for Juri.

1997

December 29th: Utena turns 14 years old.

1998

This would most likely be assumptions and a bit of headcanon. Unless anyone reading this have the actual manga version of Revolutionary Girl Utena, then you won’t have any idea what I’m talking about.

Prologue

Early June (3 days)

Day 1 (Pg3-33) // Day 2 (Pg34-49) // Day 3 (Pg50-82)

During Summer Break

July 29th: Utena’s arrive to Ohtori Private Academy.

I think the Juri x Shiori x Ruka is the only time I've liked a story arc about a gay person crushing on a straight person AND the only time I've liked a storyline about a straight man wanting a lesbian. It's the drama... The layers... It's proof a love triangle is more than a marketing tool or cheap romance trope, here it's used to explore Juri by putting her in a toxic, unwinnable situation that she has to get out of but can't

A, B, L

Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.

Obviously, I have my OTP of OroAnko. Second to them in the Naruto verse would be MitsuCho. Their combined cuteness gives me life! (I mean, seriously, their interactions are so adorable! I love them!)

Apart from Naruto, I’m quite obsessed with Revolutionary Girl Utena. My OT3 to end all OT3s is Juri x Shiori x Ruka. (I also happen to love Juri with just Shiori or just Ruka, or Shiori with Ruka, but all three together can’t be beat!) Following them is Saionji x Wakaba. The leaf barrette scene chokes me up every time! Though really, all the different relationships and their arcs are fantastic! Such a great series! I cannot recommend watching Utena enough!

A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.

I guess AnkoRin, on account of @shattered-by-sparks. She’s not currently active, but we meshed well enough to pique my interest. It’s a lesser ship to me than OroAnko, but I developed a taste for it.

Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves. (Characters you’re neutral about are fair game, as are characters you merely dislike. Characters that you absolutely loathe with the fire of ten thousand suns are exempt, as there is no point in giving yourself an aneurysm over a character that you hate.)

I think Sai is funny and certainly cute. I wouldn’t say I dislike him, rather I have never been particularly crazy about his character. He’s just kind of there a lot of the time.

Binge-Watching: Revolutionary Girl Utena, Episodes 28-30

In which everything is awful and everyone has a bad time. Also, I talk about some things I don’t like.

The Worst of Us

Today’s episodes were rough.

I don’t mean that in the sense that they were bad. I mean that on a visceral level, these episodes are not a good time. Bad things happen, our heroes suffer, everything seems to be going wrong and no one knows how to stop it, and all the while the bad guys just press their advantage more and more. None of the characters make it out unscathed, pretty much every situation seems to go south, and barely a minute goes by without me sucking in my breath in anxiety as I watch things get worse and worse. It is not a good time to be a student of Ohtori Academy, and now that we’re coming up on the home stretch, I can only imagine things are gonna get worse before- if at all- they get better. Buckle up, folks, because there are no more breaks on this wild car ride into the abyss.

Frankly, the blame for the bad shit that goes down in these episodes can be pinned on a single source: shitty dudes. As if Akio and Touga weren’t enough, Juri’s third turn round the dueling arena introduces Ruka, the captain of her fencing club who’s also working with End of the World. And he fucking sucks. He toys with Shiori’s feelings despite not giving a shit about her as a twisted way of getting Juri’s attention. Then he throws Shiori to the side the minute her power fails him and leaves her to wallow in a broken heart. And as if that wasn’t enough, he outright tries to force himself on Juri while claiming he’s doing it all for her sake. It’s the most concentrated display of monstrous behavior we’ve seen on this show, and by the time he’s twisted Juri’s arm into dueling Utena again I was seething with rage. This fucker’s the most instantly despicable asshole in the entire show; at least Akio has the decency to put on a decent front and give Utena some (very maniuplative and conditioning) support. But episode 30 firmly dispels any notions of Akio being “better”; he’s just better at hiding his inner monster behind a pleasant facade. And he’ll wear that smiling face all while wriggling his slimy way into Utena’s heart. Never before has someone calling someone else their “precious friend” felt so gross and terrifying.

No Prince at All

But at this point, I think I need to take a step back and talk bigger picture. Because the more I roll these episodes around in my head, the more I come to the realization that I... really kinda don’t jive with how the show’s villains are written. Like, it is just me, or does literally every single one of Akio’s plans boil down to “seduce every living creature in a ten mile radius with two x chromosones”? His fiance, Anthy, Utena, Wakaba, and now his fiance’s goddamn mother too? And back when Touga was still king of the hill, that was how he deployed most of his schemes as well. This show can write such fascinating, complex characters with messy feelings and emotions that realistically drive them down dark paths, but literally all their problems could be solved if the bad guys were less hot. And I don’t even find them that hot! I mean, considering I’m a straight dude, that’s probably no surprise, but is Akio really so good at playing the perfect dream lover that he can make literally anyone fall for him? All it takes is one girl with a bit more control over her emotions and his schemes wouldn’t be worth shit.

And I just don’t find that very interesting. Sure, Akio and Touga and Ruka are expertly crafted in terms of making me want to punch them in the fucking face, but the more I think back on them, the less interested I become in what they’re actually doing. Surely there were more interesting ways to show how they manipulate people? Surely there were more avenues of human connection they could exploit than just the affection matrix? I get they’re representative of exploitative authority figures, how people in power- especially men- abuse and twist the people under them to get what they want. I got that back in the first goddamn arc, and it was delivered effectively. But do we still need to be hammering it in this hard? Do we really need to see our villains have this many romantic and sexual conquests to understand how and why they’re bad? Once again, Ikuhara’s biggest flaw as a storyteller is that he doesn’t know when to leave well enough alone and stop belaboring the damn point. Time and again, the moments he stops surprising me are the moments I feel myself losing interest with his works. And my rage at the actions Akio and his ilk are taking is dimmed somewhat by the exhaustion of seeing the same scheme play out over and over again.

Where’s the Love?

But there’s another factor to this conflicted melange of opinions, and this one’s a lot more personal. I’m a self-professed slut for a good romance, and some of my favorite moments in anime are just spending quality time with my favorite couples. I think a love story done well can add so much to a piece of fiction, even if it’s not strictly “necessary.” But so much of Revolutionary Girl Utena’s drama is based on the characters’ feelings for each other, and so much of it just... does not grab me. And of course they don’t, most of them are just schoolkid crushes! Most of the romantic feelings people develop in their early teens- hell, even in their late teens- are unavoidably shallow and likely to fade within a few years. Utena’s characters stake huge emotional bets on their feelings for each other- Miki and Saionji crushing on Anthy, Juri crushing on Shiori, Shiori crushing on Ruka- thinking those feelings are the most important thing in the world, only for reality to slap them in the face. That’s the tunnel vision of youth, and that’s what makes more experienced assholes like Akio able to exploit them so easily. But there’s a disconnect there, isn’t there? Because I know from my vantage point of (relative) maturity that these feelings likely won’t ever amount to anything, and the characters themselves don’t. So for the characters, losing their crush or being betrayed by someone they trusted is this huge, devastating emotional wallop, but I don’t always feel that drama myself because, well, I already know better.

Like, okay, perfect example: Shiori’s feelings for Ruka. It’s obvious from the start she’s gonna get her heart broken because Ruka’s a prick, but that’s not an issue in and of itself. But when Shiori’s so devastated by him breaking up with her that she locks herself in her room and descends into a spiral of bitter jealousy, I just don’t feel the agony she’s feeling. Intellectually, I understand why this would be such a big deal to her, but emotionally, I’m not invested. We don’t even really know why Shiori had such a crush on him; best I can tell, it was just because it was he was her handsome club leader. Plus, it doesn’t even seem like it sticks once Ruka dies (side note, why drag yourself out of the hospital before you’re healed to try and inspire your crush if you’re gonna be that much of a fucking dick about it?). The final scene of episode 29 sees Shiori walking right behind Juri in her school uniform like always, so we don’t even get to see her getting over it. There was never any real emotional bond between them, just the shallow affections of youth. And when that’s all being broken, the horror Shiori herself is feeling doesn’t register with me. Same thing with Utena falling for Akio, honestly; she crushes on him because he’s smooth and handsome and is very good at playing a chivalrous gentleman. I’m not saying those are unreasonable reasons why anyone might crush on someone else, god knows I’ve had plenty of similarly shallow crushes myself. But I’m past the point where that kind of shallowness has any real emotional effect on me.

If I sound like I’m being overly harsh here, let me enrich my point by talking about a genuine emotional connection this show does really well: Utena and Anthy. The time we spend with these characters isn’t just time saying “Hey, they have feelings for each other,” and leaving it at that. We get to learn why they’re coming to love each other, what habits they form with each other, the comfort of being around each other, their nighttime conversations that reflect on the feelings they’re struggling with and keeping hidden from each other (”I think there’s a part of love you can’t control.”) We get to learn the specifics of what their connection means to them, and how that connection manifests in their actions and attitudes towards each other. Especially now in this latest arc, where they get at least some time every episode to just talk about shit together. I care about these two. I care about Anthy’s inability to share her fears about Akio with Utena. I care about the terrifying way she watches their tryst with the candles flickering out. I care about them because I know about them, because I’m given time to know about them. Their bond means something to me, just as much as it does to them. I can say the same about Wakaba and Utena’s friendship, or even the dry camaraderie among the remaining student council members. This show is not lacking for relationships that work. But it only makes it that less interesting when it drives its plot forward using the far more shallow feelings these characters experience.

Odds and Ends

-...is Nanami eating schoolwork and letters. But why tho.

-”For some reason, my heart’s pounding.” I cannot get over how tender this scene is, god damn.

-skdjfhsdkhfs god dammit why was the car in the fountain

-Okay, but make sure your seatbelts are buckled. Car sex can go wrong real fast if you’re not careful.

-Something I missed last time: Utena’s princely form now has very prominent lip gloss. I feel like that’s probably important.

-”What gives you the right to hurt her?” Kick. His. Ass.

-”Say your line, Touga.” Alright, this is one sin I can’t overlook. Actors are never supposed to directly cue other actors. Akio, I’ll see you in hell.

-God DAMN, the duel animation kicks ass! J. C. Staff’s really pulling out all the stops in this last stretch.

-Coolest moment in these episodes by far: Utena shatters Juri’s pendant, and she’s so broken with shock that she rips her own flower out in surrender. Goddamn, that knocked me flat on my ass.

-”Wish as hard as you can, and they will know your feelings.” ...that’s not quite the same quote, is it?

-”Lies like that are totally transparent. And they set a pattern of mistrust.” Wakaba, too good for this shameful world as always.

-”Girls should wear nice frilly skirts!” “Who thought that one up?” Utena’s in top form today.

-”Bu-huh-hye.” Okay, Anthy repeating that is somehow the scariest thing in this episode.

-”She’s the first girl to ever make me reconsider how I live my life.” And yet, you’re still helping the same assholes as always.

We’re getting close to the end now. See you next time!

Juri and saionji for the character thing!

I do not understand why you (or anyone) would pick those two, anon, but I’ll give it a try.

Juri

favorite thing about them - I was going to say that it’s Juri is so sure of herself, but honestly the whole Shiori thing is proof that she isn’t, it’s just the facade she puts on for the world. She’s dedicated, though, to both Shiori and the image she presents to the world.

least favorite thing about them - Juri is ridiculously stubborn and unable to let go of some things.

favorite line - “There is only one person who you can each truly love. It’s too bad that you can’t change who that person is. If you could, the you both would be a lot happier.” Oh Juri, you ridiculous hypocritical teenager. Also, the whole “ball” exchange with Nanami.

brOTP - I kind of want Juri to, like, mentor Nanami. Also, Miki and Juri.

OTP - I am always on the Jurixhappiness train. Also, a fan of @azuresquirrel‘s JurixWakaba crackship.

nOTP - Juri and Shiori are toxic for each other, JurixRuka.

random headcanon - Juri gets into humanitarian charities once she gets out of Ohtori and grows up a little. She especially focuses on ones that support at-risk LGBTQ+ youth.

unpopular opinion - Juri has never nor will ever have feelings for Ruka? Also, Juri and Shiori will never work.

song i associate with them - ‘Shake It Off’ by Florence+The Machine

favorite picture of them - Does a gif count?

Saionji

favorite thing about them - He’s loyal. Like, to the extreme.

least favorite thing about them - Those abusive and user tendencies he has.

favorite line - The whole “secret love” with Utena cracks me up every time. Also, the conversation with Touga in the motorcycle sidecar.

brOTP - Touga and Saionji finally getting themselves together and acting like actual friends instead of being petty at each other. Also Saionji and Nanami since they grew up together too.

OTP - Saionji x therapy lol. Also future!TougaxSaionji after they get it together and stop being disaster children

nOTP - SaionjixAnthy, just no no NO

random headcanon - Saionji is actually a really good cook, learning what works and what doesn’t with the same passion he has for kendo.

unpopular opinion - IDK that I low-key ship him with Touga?

song i associate with them - ‘Loser’ by Beck LOL

favorite picture of them

#Juri Arisugawa #Kyouichi Saionji #Revolutionary Girl Utena #character ask meme #You Ask I Answer #anonymous #haha I snuck Nanami in there surprise surprise #gif warning #still accepting these if anyone wants to send one

I had to do something Utena related to celebrate the end of the decade...something extremely pointless. Explanations for why I chose each song under the cut.

Student Council Arc

Choix (Saionji): Treat You Better by Shawn Mendes (2017): Because Utena can treat Anthy better...BETTAH DANNY GAAAAAAN!

Amitié (Saionji): Salad Dressing by Borgore ft. Bella Thorne (2017): Real fans know why this is Saionji’s song. Even realer fans know that “ACTUALLY, in the light novels, it was salad oil and not salad dressing.” They should definitely give this post more notes by correcting me about that.

Raison (Miki): Hey Soul Sister by Train (2010): *Insert bad incest joke here*

Amour (Juri): Same Love by Macklemore (2013): Because Macklemore died for gay rights

Adoration (Nanami): What’s New Pussycat (Metal Version) by Leo (2019): I just discovered this song today when putting this playlist together and now my life will never be the same

Conviction (Touga): Guys Don’t Like Me by It Boys! (2012): This might be the most Touga song to ever exist.

Soi (Touga): NO by Meghan Trainor (2016): If I’m being completely honest, this song works better for “On the Night of the Ball” than Utena’s second duel with Touga. But Episode 3 doesn’t have duel song, so it’s going here.

Black Rose Arc

Aliénation (Kanae): Marry You by Bruno Mars (2010): I like to imagine that this is what every single conversation that Kanae has with Akio sounds like

Attache (Kozue): We Can’t Stop by Miley Cyrus (2013): This song has Big Kozue Energy and there is nothing anyone could say to convince me otherwise

Jalousie (Shiori): boyfriend by Ariana Grande ft. Social House (2019): This isn’t even ironic. This song just really makes me think of Shiori and Juri

Impatience (Tsuwabuki): Boyfriend by Justin Beiber (2012): Tsuwabuki would totally use the line “I could be your Buzz Lightyear” on Nanami

Limite (Wakaba): Haunted by Taylor Swift (2010): I had to put at least one genuinely heartbreaking song on this playlist. Have fun ugly crying over “Wakaba Flourishing” to a Taylor Swift song

Dépendance (Keiko): Best Friend’s Brother by Victorious Cast (2011): I made this whole playlist just so I could make this joke

Conscience (Mikage): Set Fire to the Rain by Adele (2011): This is the ultimate “I got cucked so I decided to commit arson” anthem

Akio Arc (Duel Names Taken From This Forum Thread)

Compréhension (Saionji): Backseat by New Boyz ft. Dev & The Cataracs (2011): This song is actually about Touga and Akio instead of Saionji, but honestly so is episode 25 so you can’t even complain

Fraternité (Miki): Hey Mama by David Guetta ft. Nicki Minaj & Bebe Rexha (2014): Remember that time that Anthy became Miki’s stepmom and then it was never addressed again? That’s definitely something that needs a whole duel song devoted to it.

Secours (Ruka): Die Young by Kesha (2012): Get it? Cause he dies?

Liberté (Juri): Riding Solo by Jason DeRulo (2010): Because what would this playlist be if it didn’t call out Juri for being forever alone?

Croissance (Nanami): Bitch I’m a Cow by Nida Fremin (2018): Because it would make no sense to put this song before “The Cowbell of Happiness.” That would just be silly.

Apocalypse Arc

Protection (Touga): Old Town Road Remix by Lil Nas X ft. Billy Ray Cyrus (2019): The most important part of Touga’s plotline in this arc was supposed to be the wacky horseback riding antics, right?

Révolution (Akio): 2012 (It Ain’t The End) by Jay Sean ft. Nicki Minaj (2010): There were a lot of songs about the end of the world that came out before 2012. But this is the only one that name drops both Japan and pink cars
