I'm gonna review this. Stay tuned.TeenAngels1234 (talk) 19:55, 23 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

  • It's not stringent for the purpose of promotion, but can't the two articles be created for Hasegawa and Oguro? Even a few lines would be fine. They are definitely encyclopedic because they have participated in and written successful and relevant works beyond Utena.
    • I'll look into seeing if I can't make at least stub articles for them both.
  • I would suggest adding a summary of the Reception section in the lead.
    • Done.
  • I know what gyaru are, but can you make it more explicit by explaining it?
    • I'm not sure how to best approach this one. I don't think gyaru in this context requires any more explanation than "a boisterous woman", but that just seems repetitious with the context the quote already gives.
  • I would suggest explaining who said "influenced by idiosyncrasies."
    • Done
  • I would avoid explicit references to other sections, such as "See Soundtrack and music below."
    • Done.
  • "Saito ultimately expressed an affirmative position on how the series presented the relationship between the characters." Can you explain further? I'm not sure I understand.
    • That she ultimately has spoken positively of the decision to depict them as a couple; I've rephrased the section.
  • Soukatsu shite. Can you add the Japanese text with the Nihongo template and translation?
    • Done.

@Morgan695: That's all for now. Good work.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 09:38, 25 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Okay. Then:

  • Perhaps capitalization for "for western audiences" would be better?
    • Done.
  • Perhaps "Animerica described" is better than "Animerica characterized."
    • Done.
  • "patcicipating." Probably a typo.
    • Done.
  • Ikuhara's comment in Reception seems superfluous to me.
    • I disagree; a creator specifically acknowledging that a series continues to have a following two decades-plus after its release specifically because of its LGBT fans feels relevant to a section on its impact and legacy.
  • I would suggest moving the content regarding Evangelion to the Themes section, perhaps creating a separate subsection.
    • Giving it its own section under Themes feels like it would be WP:UNDUE to me, but I'm not sure the paragraph makes sense anywhere other than under Reception.

@Morgan695: That's all I can find. The rest seems to me to be not only from GA, but perhaps also from FA. As a long-time Utena fan somewhat upset by the anime's poor recognition on Wikipedia and elsewhere, I am pleased. Great job.TeenAngels1234 (talk) 20:43, 25 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
