If you loved Revolutionary Girl Utena: The Movie, try Sailor Moon R: The Movie - The Promise of the Rose

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Kunihiko Ikuhara, and they both carry the foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Revolutionary Girl Utena: The Movie, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Sailor Moon R: The Movie - The Promise of the Rose is

You encounter a sorrowful alien, once a childhood friend of Mamoru's. He brings grave warnings and a bewitching flower, but his tortured presence inflames a looming threat. The Sailor Senshi must unite. Ikuhara's characteristic visual flair elevates this entry beyond standard series fare. It lingers on the thin line between friendship and obsession.
