Well you're right.
certain things make little sense if you dont watch the series first.
Yes.

This discussion has prompted me to add some quotes on the Utena series and movie pages on Hummingbird.
One thing I just noticed with regards to the dub is how they changed the audio mix on the car sequences. Bad.

Ok so I just looked at Utena's cars. They're not sexy! It looks like a scorpion lol.

Thats the movie car. the anime car looks like a modified Chevrolet 1950s era corvette.
You're doing it wrong.

For the most part it was a pretty "normal" episode, but everything with L-Elf continues to be gold.

When he just got up and easily freed himself from his restraints, oh man. And that ending promises all sorts of nonsense to come.

Watch the show and the movie first before even googling anything about it. The internet is a minefield of spoilers.
Stop posting bad tumblr gif's and start watching this masterpiece before ruining it with google.

It might have to do with the materials they got to be fair but basically re-did the sound effects for those scenes. (maybe they only got a track that was voices + effects, though they still messed up.)
From watching EP28, there is only 1 rev (different sound too) with some other minor alterations there and they also added an engine hum on the driving scene itself that was absent from the Japanese dub. The US dub is also much louder as is usual with this sort of thing.
Keep in mind that many sound effects throughout the show were redone for the Remastered version, under Ikuhara's direction. One of these is the engine sound. He wanted it to be deeper than it normally should be for such a car.
They also redid the first two versions of ZUM. First is more lead with backup than a chorus now, and the second is remixed to use this version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpK-LS0KncY

Oh, so that might explain it then since the dub's sound effects would be based on the original track rather than the remaster.
Yeah. The drop of water on the rose signet is different. The bells are different. Etc, etc.
Still doesn't mean they didn't fuck with things, but it's something to look into.
I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry about this.

I'd have to find a source for pre-remaster Utena and I'm probably too lazy to do so.
I assume the changes weren't just in what sounds they used but their timing.
ie in 28 dub, you get 1 reving, when you also see the pedal but the Japanese track uses another deeper rev, and then has the engine being constantly reved later on the scene, absent in the dub.

Too late.....I saw a top comment on a vid and it said the End of Evangelion made more sense than Utena. I'm not going to watch it when I have exams coming.
I don't get it why does that prove its CGI?

Youtube comments are the worst thing on the internet and you should feel bad for reading them.
It's not CGI, whoever wrote that knew fuck shit about the movie. Also, he's probably a bat.

This was mostly an episode based on the concept of choices and i'm intrested into what will happen next.
That wasn't a bad episode. Rather alcor was quite intresting during this episode.
Too bad that "the world" means Japan only

Yeah, just checked and it's an original/remaster sound mix issue.

I get enough shirtless men at work. It's ewwwy; it's even nastier since I work at a grocery store. No one wants hair on their food!
I need to sit down and power through Utena. I'm making progress, but I am moving so bloody slow. Job hunting this week (at least I have two part-time jobs now amounting to 40 hours a week) murdered my anime activities.

Wow these episodes sucked. Kurumi is awful. The "erotic" scenes were honestly gross as hell. She's the least interesting girl so far in the series both in terms of personality and especially in looks. The only decent bits were with Tohka who is the best girl by far.

Wow I totally forgot about Railgun? Is it good, the first two episodes didn't draw me like the 1st season?

idk, I just can never get into Railgun Index shit, even though I've seen all the shows and read like 1 LN.
The yuri overtones pale compare to other shows too, and my favorite characters in railgun were the 2 side girls....
Is s2 aight?
Are they doing another index show? Need more girls getting punched.

It's alright. Dealing with the Sister's arc from Index season 1 right now though.
Just wait for the youtube compilation like the smart people.

This season of Railgun in particular has been serious. And it's less interesting they are just repeating an arc I've already seen. One in which we already know ends with
Touma saving the day.
1) Gargantia
2) Maou Sama
3) Space Bros
4) SNAFU
5) Valvrave
6) Majestic Prince
7) Hentai Prince
8) Railgun
9) date a live
10) Titan (though I considering putting Crime Edge here too)
Listing them out makes me realize that this is a better season than I was giving it credit for.
