Absolute Destiny Apocalypse, Take 2

Continued from Absolute Destiny Apocalypse Take 1. Thanks to of the Prince she met in her youth while mourning the death of her parents, Utena decides to become a prince herself.

Absolute Destiny Apocalypse, Take 1

The original post turned out to be excessively long so I broke it down into three parts. I guess it is time for some another manga/anime related post. I have several things to say regarding the many manga I have read and anime that I have watched in the past 3 years (I have reason…
