Description:
Look no further than to the "Revolutionary Girl Utena" series when it comes to imaginative prose-filled dueling songs that defy conventional anime music. This fourth Utena original soundtrack wins hands down as one of the most eclectic CDs yet from the minds of anime auteur Kunihiko Ikuhara (Sailor Moon S, Sailor Moon SuperS) and composer J.A. Seazer, for its guitar-propelled, frenetic and grandiose content.
Featured on this 12-track disc are remixed versions of well-known duel songs from the series, such as "Spira Mirabirisu Theater" and "No One Talks About It." The result is an artful soundtrack that's somewhat familiar, yet also contains rewarding surprises for Utena fans, including the karaoke version of the song, "Angel Creation, Namely Light."
Includes a full-color insert booklet with titles, song lyrics, credits and composer comments translated in English, as well as romanized lyrics.

For those afraid that the series will effectively remove the "fun" from "dumb fun" by trying to wring pathos from its paper-
Where the animated version was a spooky, if repetitive, trip into hearts of darkness, compressed timeframes and a remarkably inappropriate artistic approach transform this paper version into a toothless mess.
Released concurrently with its paperback novel version, this manga adaptation tells a heartfelt love story shaped by mystery and wonder, albeit one dependent on a questionable gimmick and mediocre artistry.
Superb attention to military technical detail and its highly unusual documentary style highlight a strong second volume notable for getting politically edgy. It will either utterly fascinate you or utterly not work for you.
So to all the high school girls out there: give the Student Council a try if you want to pick up some hot guys. But don't give Love Master A a try if you want to pick up some fun, fresh manga, because this one is pretty stale.
Although not entirely without entertainment value, these episodes offer little respite to those thoroughly disappointed with the first volume. It is a textbook case of how not to adapt an MMORPG into anime format.

The series may drag at times, but these middle episodes still have some clever twists in store. In one of the most powerful episodes so far, we find that the roots of Hell Girl's existence run deep into the past.
