Lol, that would be perfectly normal at the girl's nights my friends and I have.

Utena being my favorite anime for 10 years now (god it has been that long Anime hyper) I was highly amused by this. I wanted to watch it with my girlfriends when we had TV night but didn't get around to it before everyone moved.

I know how you feel, I can't STAND being recommended series that are long out of print and impossible or highly expensive to acquire (legally).

With Utena though I got lucky, I was able to get all 3 box sets a few years back at around $40-60 each new. A few months later, and getting it that cheap is no longer possible Crying or Very sad.

Same with Steel Angel Kurumi, damn I got lucky with that one.

I'm glad it referenced Utena, kinda nice to see an older series referenced.

I tried renting it off Netflix . . . I think the DVDs are being stolen from there.

Revolutionary Girl Utena: the Movie, The Adolescence of Utena, and 39 episodes of the anime are presently listed at fansite [illegal fansub site]. I've been able to watch other forms of anime here without side effects from computer virus. I have never downloaded from this site so won't comment re outcome. You might try this site if you're still suffering from Utena withdrawal.

I've actually walked in on similar situations... several times.

Yeah, it definitely leaves you scratching your head as you walk away.

Shocked that's some spot-on artwork ! I love the closeup of Nina.

Next girls' night, Kevin shows up cosplaying Akio, and has sex with both of them.

It really sucks that Utena is out of print right now. There's a remedy to this situation, and it rhymes with "abhorrent". Just make sure you're first in line when the super duper remastered version gets released here.

OMG Kev turns down a night of zombie killin'?! It is simply unheard of to deny the urge to blast a horde of zombies! It's almost as unheard of as a girl's night Utena cosplay party... but I guess it could happen lol.

I think he invited the other guy to a night of zombie killing but the other dude turned him down.

I've been meaning to check out Utena, but I hadn't looked for it yet, so I didn't know it was out of print. Sadness. Anime cry
