boku chuchu



Welcome to my little ChuChu shrine!  ChuChu is commonly referred to as the comedic relief in the anime Shoujo Kakumei Utena, although he is certainly not limited to that (at times he is imperative for plot advancement!).  ^_^  He's one of my favorite Utena characters, and he deserves more attention than he gets.  Just a quick note: I know that there's a debate about Chuchu's gender.  Personally, I think Chuchu is most likely female, but I just use the pronoun "he" out of habit and because sometimes I think Chuchu is actually male; it's a tough debate.


I love playing with 'alt' tags


First up are a few scans I made from the first 2 volumes of the manga (there are 5 volumes total).  Like always, links open in a new window.  ^_^  Oh, and if you would like to use any of these images on your site (including the ones you can see right now), please ask first (piegoddess@hotmail.com).

note: These are from the original Japanese, so the images read from right-to-left, not left-to-right like we read.

Chuchu when he first meets Utena.  Chuchu has this reaction after Utena offers him a cookie/cracker that he's been trying to reach--what better way to make friends with Chuchu than to offer him food!  lol  It's just a funny pic.... go jungle Chuchu!

Chuchu promotes good dental hygiene.  And afterwards, Utena gives him (and Anthy) a very funny look.

Oops...  This is from kare naru henshin ("curry transformation"), and it's here because Chuchu says "crap."  Well, what he literally says is "karappo" which, if you know anything about the Japanese language, could very well be the English word "crap."  And, dangit, that's really funny.  ^_^  Chuchu says this after he accidentally spills an entire bottle of curry into the stew that Utena and Anthy are about to eat.  ^^;;

Femme fatale.  This is also from kare naru henshin.  Chuchu has just successfully retreived the curry powder back from Saionji by using some semi-sneaky tactics, and here we see that he is quite proud of himself (er, herself).  I call it "femme fatale" cause he just looks like a sneaky woman in this pic!  lol  I think it's the eyebrows...

There's been another mix-up.  This is at the end of kare naru henshin after Chuchu and Saionji have been switched.  Here, Saionji is frantically trying to show everyone that he's not Chuchu but Saionji!  I can just imagine it... "no no no no no, I'm not Chuchu!  I'm Saionji!  *points*  See the hair?  And look...I fence!"  LOL!


Hmmmm... and for now, that's all there is on this page.  I said it was little!  ^_~  There's a really cute Chuchu shrine somewhere out on the 'net that I found a long time ago; if I ever find it again I'll put a link to it here--it was really good!  ^_^  Ja!
