Summary
Utena Tenjou (天上 ウテナ, Tenjō Utena) is a student in her second year of middle school at Ohtori Academy. She wears a boy's uniform in order to be more like her "prince".
In the anime, the initial story the anime presents is almost identical to that of the manga, except with more detail. Flashbacks show the young Utena climbing into a coffin upon her parents' deaths, seeing no point in living. She encounters the Prince, and — for reasons which eventually become key to the show's resolution — this encounter created in her the drive to become a Prince herself. Utena does not remember much of this encounter, and for the most part Utena herself does not clearly remember the full details of her history, until the very end.
