See, when you say stuff like this, you give people the wrong idea about the show and then they go watch it and end up being really disappointed. That’s my experience
i’m sorry that you were disappointed but everything i mentioned is in the show, on screen and in dialogue. when you say no one expresses any queer feelings outside of subtext that is untrue.
i suppose you could somehow watch the show and ignore most if it if you were dedicated to the idea that it didn’t have gay people in it, but even then there’s juri!!! who is explicitly stated to be in love with a woman!!! it’s the focus of every episode she’s in!!! and also kozue makes out with anthy on screen, and utena kisses her in the end credits! you would have to watch with blinders in not to find at least some textual queerness on the screen
