As for Shiori, my beef with her is that she's not so much gloriously evil as just plain petty (IMO).
Haha, she's definitely petty to the core (her reaction when she learns Juri was in love with her instead of the guy she thought she stole from Juri is clear evidence of that). I just think she got way hotter when all that evil pettiness was completely released. I'm not liking her for her personality. :P
My thing for Evil!Shiori is so strong because I generally love evil ladies in any medium. For instance, the main thing I took from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is Cate Blanchett makes one hell of a hot evil Russian. Da, comrade! XD
OMG yes!!!! Forget alien skulls and Shia Lewhatever--that movie should've been entirely about her.
As for Shiori, my beef with her is that she's not so much gloriously evil as just plain petty (IMO). But I'm not exactly sure which part of the show I have in mind right now, so I probably shouldn't say anything more. ^^;;
Not very fond of Shiori, although I would accept her as Juri's sex slave. :D
I like the way you think!

My favorite character keeps changing with every episode. Sometimes it's Utena, because I like how she does whatever the hell she wants. Sometimes it's Nanami because she is hysterical and makes the show really fun to watch (and her run as student council president has been quite entertaining so far). Right now, I am swaying toward Juri because her drama has been the most interesting out of everyone's so far. And I love how she's tough without being a blatant asshole (most of the time ... lol).
Also, in the words of the immortal Spike Speigal, "I like a girl who can kick my ass." Although my pool of girls is probably much bigger than Spike's. XD
Heh, the manga is a rather different beast. I never finished it [/lazy], so I can't fairly make a comparison... but yeah, try to sandblast your mind with the anime someday. :D

The first time I watched the show, my favorite character was probably Utena herself. Didn't know what to make of Anthy. Now Anthy is my favorite by far (and my attitude toward Utena has become "I love you, but you're an idiot"). lol
