Princess Tutu (2002)

プリンセスチュチュ

Information

Description

Princess Tutu” begins with a storyteller named Drosselmeyer, who died shortly before finishing his last book. His fairy tale character, a prince, “climbed out” of the book and fought a “monster crow”. The fight went on for a long time until the prince decided to sacrifice his heart to put the crow away for good. This sacrifice caused him to lose all his feelings and his memory. The world was at peace again, but his soul became “mute”.

From then on, the story revolves around the little duck Ahiru. She sees the prince lonely and alone and decides to help him. Thanks to a jewel, Ahiru is allowed to live as a human to help the prince. However, every time she says “quack”, she turns back into a duck. Early on, Ahiro finds out that she is also a fairy tale character named Princess Tutu and originally had no attachment to the prince. With his sacrifice, his heart has shattered into many pieces and “jumped” into objects or people.

Each of these people now experiences a certain feeling. Ahiru meets all of them one by one in order to give Prince Mytho back his heart parts. But this path is rocky and fraught with all their emotions and facets. When the said crow appears, Tutu has to fight hard to make her prince happy again. But does he really need her love?
»Princess Tutu« beginnt bei einem Geschichtenerzähler namens Drosselmeyer, der kurz vor der Vollendung seines letzten Buches verstarb. Seine Märchenfigur, ein Prinz, »stieg« aus dem Buch heraus und bekämpfte eine »Monsterkrähe«. Der Kampf ging eine lange Zeit, bis sich der Prinz entschloss, sein Herz zu opfern, um die Krähe endgültig wegzusperren. Dieses Opfer sorgte dafür, dass er all seine Gefühle und sein Gedächtnis verlor. Die Welt lag wieder im Frieden, doch seine Seele wurde »stumm«.

Ab da dreht sich die Geschichte um die kleine Ente Ahiru. Sie sieht den Prinzen einsam und allein und beschließt, ihm zu helfen. Ahiru darf dank eines Juwels als Mensch leben, um dem Prinzen zu helfen. Bei jedem Wort »Quak« verwandelt sie sich aber wieder in eine Ente. Früh findet Ahiro heraus, dass sie ebenfalls eine Märchenfigur namens Prinzessin Tutu ist und eigentlich keine Bindung zum Prinzen hatte. Sein Herz ist seit seinem Opfer in viele Teile zersprungen und in eins der Gegenstände oder Menschen »hineingesprungen«.

Jeder dieser Menschen erlebt nun ein bestimmtes Gefühl. Ahiru begegnet nach und nach allen, um dem Prinzen Mytho wieder seine Herzteile zurückzugeben. Doch dieser Weg ist steinig und mit all ihren Emotionen und deren Facetten gespickt. Als dann auch noch besagte Krähe auftaucht, muss Tutu hart kämpfen, um ihren Prinzen wieder glücklich zu machen. Aber braucht er dafür wirklich ihre Liebe?

Quotes

  • Ahiru

    My name is Duck. Yes, like the bird. Take it up with my parents. They never loved me!

  • Rue

    The depths of despair…. I feel so calm here. I won’t be tricked by anyone anymore and I don’t have to resent anyone. There’s nothing here. Not even loving. Nothing but to keep dancing until I die away.

  • Drosselmeyer

    And so, the prince and the princess lived happily ever… Happily!? Happiness in stories is at most a trifling matter of a couple of lines at the end — the epitome of boredom. Now, show me a magnificent tragedy! A cataclysm of tears from which not one of the players is saved, and to which a happy ending never comes!
