Can I Just Say How Hilarious I Find Revolutionary Girl Utena With Juri. Everyone Is Freaking Out Because

Can I just say how hilarious I find Revolutionary Girl Utena with Juri. Everyone is freaking out because “how could a girl be a prince” and “Utena is so weird she refuses to wear the female uniform this has never happened before” when Juri…exists? Juri has been duelling and not wearing the girl’s uniform for who knows how long and is not all that subtle in her general disdain for men (save for Miki but she seems to view him as more of a little brother or a cute puppy than a guy) and no one comments on it.

Like idk if there’s a reason for this that I’m not aware of, (and obviously there’s already a ton of sexism and homophobia in Ohtori) but everyone making such a huge deal over Utena ignoring gender norms when Juri exists is somehow hilarious to me. Like Juri exists on a separate plane of existence that sexism doesn’t apply to her. Or maybe she traded it in for additional internalized homophobia for her and Shiori. Idk.

I wish I could take back my years of trying to force myself to be straight and would like to tell anyone who’s against “forced diversity” or putting lgbtq characters into kids shows to go screw themselves and jump in a lake.

If I had characters like Amity, Adora, and Catra (to name the most personally influential sapphic characters to me in recent years) I could have avoided thinking there was something wrong with me for not being attracted to guys.

For kids, if we don’t have representation we will assume there is something wrong with us. We’ll assume that we’re broken. Giving us the labels gives us another option. It doesn’t change how we are. It just changes how we view ourselves.

I think that instead of perpetuating heteronormative stereotypes with questions like “who wears the pants in the relationship” we should ask “who gets the spider and who runs away screaming”.

So Next to Normal is my favorite musical (shocker I know) I only recently discovered that there’s a Riverdale episode that uses the soundtrack. Intrigued, I watched it despite not having watched Riverdale in years out of curiosity. Overall, I think I have very mixed feelings on the episode.

To start, the main reason I like it is because it brings more attention to (imo) one of the most underrated musicals in musical theatre. But overall, I didn’t like it. I felt like the creators completely misinterpreted the musical and it’s meaning.

The general plot of the episode revolves around one of the main character’s sisters dying and her mom being unable to come to terms with her death. For me at least, this strays so far from the original source material. The musical is about grief, yes, but I view grief as not being the actual antagonist of the show. The antagonist is Diana’s mental illness, while her and Dan’s grief over losing their son was the catalyst for her poor mental health. This is further shown by the fact that Gabe died 16 years ago. They are still grieving, yes, but this grief was the cause of both of their representations of reactions to mental illnesses: Diana becoming completely engrossed her son’s loss that she is unable to see the daughter they still have, and Dan who is so determined to erase Gabe’s existence that he refuses to let either of them grieve.

Second, the episode completely erases Dan and Natalie, who I feel actual have the more interesting character storylines in the show. The show means to show how Diana’s mental illness affects her entire family, not just her, and how Gabe’s absence is felt by the entire family including his sister who never met him. Gabe’s memory is what leads her to drug use, literally (Gabe puts Diana’s drugs into Natalie’s path which starts her spiral).

Lastly, the ending. I love the idea that “love conquers all” I really do. But the whole point of the show is that it doesn’t. Diana and Dan love each other at the end of the show, she literally states as much. But their love for each other will not let them heal. Love cannot heal all when love is used as a distraction from what needs to be healed. But the episode completely overwrites this, saying that love can fix their relationship and their grief.

Idk this is just my take and since I have literally no friends who know this musical I’m curious to hear what other people think.
