Slowly move in closer, panning over students eating lunch, playing baseball, relaxing beneath shady trees, and generally engaging in carefree activities--very Arcadian.] [Cut to a full shot of the central tower of Ohtori. Suddenly, it explodes. Out of the rubble crawls Giant Akio from the end of the Utena movie.] Giant Akio: AKIO REVOLUTIONIZE WORLD! [He begins to wreck Ohtori in a way that would make Godzilla jealous, bellowing all the while. Students flee in screaming hordes. Akio pursues them with thunderous footfalls.] Giant Akio: AKIO CRUSH PUNY STUDENTS! [One of the students stumbles and falls. It's Wakaba. The shadow of Giant Akio's gigantic upraised foot falls across her.] Giant Akio: AKIO SMASH! Wakaba: Eeeeeek! Oh, won't someone save me? [Giant Akio's foot descends. Rapid still images: Giant Akio's evil smile, Wakaba's terrified face, the foot smashing down to the sound of breaking concrete, Giant Akio's evil smile again--which suddenly becomes a frown.] Giant Akio: WHAT--NO! [Cut to a screen filled with green rose petals, that blow away to reveal Wakaba held safely in the arms of Saionji, who is wearing an outfit of green spandex with white boots and white gloves. Ohtori's rose crest is emblazoned on his chest, in white, surmounted by a large cursive 'E'.] Wakaba: Wai! Saionji-sama! [Saionji puts Wakaba gently on her feet, pulls a green rose from somewhere, inhales deeply, and smiles. Tooth-gleam.] Saionji: The valiant and honourable warrior--Saionji Kyouichi, Elegant Green! [Cut to an enraged Giant Akio.] Giant Akio: AKIO CRUSH PUNY NEW ELEGANT! [He raises his fist. Two roses, blue and orange, suddenly strike his fingers, thrown stem-first a la Tuxedo Mask. He screams in pain.] [Storm of blue and orange rose petals, which clear to reveal Miki and Juri, in blue and orange spandex, respectively, back to back, both smiling and holding a rose in their respective colour to their respective noses.] Miki: The musical and mathematical genius--Kaoru Miki, Elegant Blue! Juri: The gorgeous and deadly fencer--Arisugawa Juri, Elegant Orange! [Giant Akio's face is red with fury.] Giant Akio: AKIO CRUSH YOU ALL! Male Voice (OS): I think not. [Storm of red rose petals, clearing to reveal Touga, red spandex, smile, tooth-gleam, red rose, etc, you know the drill.] Touga: The graceful and charming knight--Kiryuu Touga, Elegant Red! Female (OS): Oniichan, you promised! [Touga sighs.] Touga: And his cute and popular and stylish and refined and lovable younger sister-- [Storm of yellow rose petals... skip it.] Nanami: Kiryuu Nanami, Elegant Yellow! [Storm of green, blue, orange, red and yellow rose petals, clearing to reveal the five New Elegants standing together in various heroic poses, all holding their swords.] Saionji: This is the final battle! Miki: Our last test! Juri: The World's End has revealed himself! Touga: It's time! Nanami: Hey--where's our leader? [Cut to Anthy and Utena outside the gates of Ohtori. The raging Giant Akio is visible in the distance. Utena appears to be pleading with Anthy.] Utena: Look, Anthy, just let me give you a little kiss. Purely platonic love, of course. Anthy [blushing]: My, Utena-sama, I'd be too embarassed. Utena: But you've never been embarassed before-- [suddenly suspicious] This is because it turns out The World's End is actually a giant rampaging version of your brother, isn't it? Anthy [innocent]: Oh my, no. Giant Akio [distantly]: AKIO SMASH! [Fade to black.] Announcer's Voice [tremendously excited]: Will Giant Akio really smash the New Elegants? Will Anthy let Utena kiss her, allowing her to transform into the male-attired leader, Elegant Pink? Will the New Elegants be able to turn into cars and form Elegigantor in time to defeat the World's End? [suddenly bored] Well, you'll never find out, so there.
