The absolute man! The machine that breathes! / “With your experience, you defeat the adults and become one yourself!”

I had a wonderful time participating in the Revolutionary Girl Utena @blackrosezine ,  “Confessional Theatre!”, representing my favorite arc and favorite criminally underrated side character, Mitsuru Tsuwabuki! I love Tsuwabuki because while he’s mostly there along with Nanami for comic relief, I feel like his episodes really do sum up the Themes™ of Utena really well–of the frustration of masculine gender roles, the tension that comes from the presumed helplessness of youth, and the misguided attempts at what that “adulthood” even entails. 

The full zine is available FOR FREE as a PDF on Gumroad, and is full of amazing art by other participants–do consider checking it out!
