A loose adaptation of the movie of the same name, The Adolescence of Utena joins Utena on her first day at Ohtori Academy. Vowing to become her own prince instead of waiting for the man who left her behind, Utena finds herself in the midst of the school’s elite students as they duel for the hand of the Rose Bride. What will she do if she wins? And what secret sadness lurks beneath the elegant façade of the academy?
