Nanami's Egg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A filler episode of Revolutionary Girl Utena in which there are no duels, no backstory, and no plot advancement, "Nanami's Egg" begins with Nanami dreaming of herself as a child, who in playing at digging unearths a yellowish egg of slightly larger than normal size and decorated with a circlet of triangles. In the dream, she hides it from her father.
Upon awakening, she soon finds such an egg in her bed, and thinks that she has laid it. The rest of the episode presents scenes of her doting over the egg.
Toward the end of the episode, Utena and Anthy talk about reincarnation as they go to sleep in their separate beds. Nanami has a second dream of her as an adult finding a huge egg of the same coloration as the one she has found - which has hatched something. Upon awakening, she notices that her egg too has hatched something.
The series mascot Chu-chu, who had not yet appeared in the episode, appears at Utena's and Anthy's at the end of the show, and the viewer is led to believe that he had been in the egg all this time, by some means or another.
