I had the hugest crush imaginable on Hana no Sainte Just from Oniisama e when I was nineteen, but I thought the Utena movie was too on crack for me to really get into it.

I literally teared up when I first read that series and realized that Felicity and Pippa's relationship, which I'd thought I'd seen in a sort of subtexty, femslashy way, was actually canon. The bit where they all state their greatest fear, and Felicity says, "Getting found out," -- I nearly cried (I wasn't out to anyone in my family then, and was convinced I'd get kicked out and disowned if my parents found out, so her greatest fear was *my* greatest fear). But you're right in that Pippa, especially in the final book where she's gotten absorbed into the magical realm and at least partially gone evil, falls into a lot of evil/abused/tragic lesbian tropes.
