Majutsushi Orphen Revenge

This is the second series.

Both are produced by JC Staff, and have very nice direction, but also, sadly, many recycled scenes.
They both have a glossy, shiny character design, and sometimes a weird sense of humor.
In both you’ll also find action, fantasy, magic, and blood-free violence, even though Orphen is a shounen, and it's much more light-hearted, and Utena is a shoujo, and it's way more psychological and complex.
In both there are at least 2 pairs of siblings, and some of the characters are quite similar: there’s the tomboyish girl (Utena/Creao) who's friends with the quiet meganekko with a trauma in her childhood (Anthy/Lycoris), and there's a weird animal who always follows them around (Chuchu/Reki & Pam).
Also, the dramatic scenes in Orphen (mainly the Lycoris/Esperanza ones) are very similar, for style, to the ones in Utena, and these 2 anime even have pretty similar endings.
