Hey guys! This time we’re starting a short, 5 episode Mini-series on
various parallels between Steven Universe and Revolutionary Girl Utena.
These are two amazing shows and thinking about one has made me
understand the other better several times now, so I hope you all enjoy!
Here we talk about Utena’s basic premise, Ruby and Sapphire, and Pink
Diamond-the Shadow cast over the story.
Let me know what you all think,
and as always, Keep rising.

“The meaning of this I can’t really say in one word… but one way to look at it is that I wanted to convey the sense of what it means to become an adult. In other words, there are no people with pure hearts in the world of adults. So, what would you do when you realize this? In other words, when you realize that the world of adults is a dirty one where no one with a pure heart can live, would you avoid it and remain as a child where you can live in a world of childish and beautiful dreams? Or, would you enter the adult world regardless even if you knew that it was not a pure world? So, which way are you going to choose?”
