Firstly, you'll notice the elegant, luxurious, aristocratic aura.
Secondly, you may be captured by the artsy music, design and direction.
Then, you can appreciate the melodrama, the duels, the now avengeful, now conflicted characters, the romantic and complex relationships.
Lastly, enjoy the not-nearly-as-subtle-as-they-think shoujo-ai/shounen-ai hints, and be surprised, or disgusted, or both, by the incest.

Utena and Gankutsuou showcase the darker facets of human emotion. Lust, Spite, Jealousy, the desire for revenge, all are touched upon as each series builds up to it's giant no-holds-barred melodramatic ending, As archetypical tales about revenge, passion, ambition and pain they are unmatched.
