blood soaked and honor bound: sku

Becka happily skips over and grabs a random microphone. "Moshi moshi, minna-san! Ok, we decided it's high time-" She ignores the inevitable stopwatch click. "-that we came up with a disclaimer, especially since we're at the point where even WE don't know the difference between what we came up with ourselves and what was actually part of the show. So, here's two lists: Stuff That Is Undoubtedly Ours, and Stuff That We Stole Ourselves."

STUFF THAT IS UNDOUBTEDLY OURS:

STUFF THAT WE STOLE OURSELVES:

· Akio smelling salts

· Akio's newfound affinity for straightjackets

· The fact that Akio's couches are now imported white Italian leather

· The personality of the Akio Car and the fact that it now knows Morse code

· Black silk bedsheets

· Black silk pajamas

· Akio's "But you don't have to... "

· Kanae's rolling pin

· Whipped cream, maraschino cherries, and a set of well-used lock picks

· Miki becomes various gelatinous substances

· Miki runs around screaming
"MY SHINING THING!!" while attacking various glowing objects

· Miki randomly defines words

· Juri's underhanded dealings in various illegal substances

· Saionji's affinity for crowing

· Becka's Elvis, aka.  "Stay DEAD!"

· The random guy for YKYWTMUW and the cast's swimsuits

· The Morish-Dutch sword and the Morish-Dutch hand which is attached to it

· The Rabbits of Doom

· All dance routines that we force people to do (excluding the Lord of the Dance)

· "You touch my chest, I kick your ass" and all variants thereof

· "Come over to the Dark Side, baby, we've got cookies."

· Our song parodies

· All creations in the Chem lab, such as an anti- glomping agent, a pill guaranteed to make any
woman a lesbian, and the chemical equivalent of a straight jacket

· "Let me show you 101 reasons why... " And our lists of 101 Reasons Why, and other lists, including the Utena ABC's and the entire Creative Information page

· Our descriptions of the characters, and the "special" pictures, and basically everything we wrote (like the introductions, the answers to the FAQ, the entire mailing list & the ml archive, the voting booth)

· Shadow Girls F-ko through Z-ko, as well as Shadow Girls Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lamda, Mu, Nu, Xi, Omicron, Phi, Rho, Sigma, Tao, Upsilon, Pi, Chi, Psi, and Omega

· UBPs, unidentifiable body parts, and all variations of

· Images that have altered by us, like the image map and the BS&HB:RGU banners

· Also, the fact that the Shadow Girls speak in the letter that they are named after was a concept designed by us

· The various objects (other than the Sword of Dios) which Utena pulls out of Anthy's chest (ie: Chainsaw of Dios, Bowling Ball of Dios, etc.)

· Ulga and Brunhilda belong soley to us, much as we are sorry to admit it

· Any Milk Adds on our page belong to whoever created them, as some were done by us and others contributed

· Wakaba's affections, such as firearms, heavy artillery, things which go *BOOM*, and Wolverine are entirely our fault

· That odd lil' picture that Ka-chan drew on the About the Authors page, as well as the "42,000 Hits" picture, and all of our fan art (most of which appears on the "Do Not Enter" page)

· The Kammanawannalaya Bar 'n Grill was created (and spelled) by us

· All the Fairy Tales which were written by Becka and/or Ka-chan

· Becka's Special Clothing

· Us, our names, the characters we represent ourselves as, and the name "Blood Soaked and Honor Bound"

· The cast of Utena belongs to B-PAPAS, directed by Kunihiko Ikuhara, story and original character design Chiho Saito, published by SHOGAKU-KAN, series structure Yoji Enoto, produced by TV TOKYO/YOMIURI ADVERTISING

· We "pants"ed the episodes using the scripts from The Utena Encyclopedia (If you haven't been to The Utena Encyclopedia, we recommend checking it out. We have it linked on our Links page, and it's the best source to use if you want -real- Utena information.)

· The fan mail belongs to whomever wrote it

· "Dolphin's Cry" by Live does not belong to us- it's an awesome song that does not involve sheep in anyway, and we mean no disrespect to the artists who wrote it

· The song parodies (excluding the ones written by us) belong to whomever wrote them, and the songs they are based on belong to their writters. We do not own Ricky Martin (nor do we have any wish to...)

· All fanfic is the property of the author as well

· The pictures in the gallery which we did not scan ourselves (most of them actually), especially the fan art

· We have no authority over The Lord of the Dance whatsoever

· Mallet and Spatula borrowed from Ranma ½

· Jolly Green Giant vegetables

· Any mention of McDonalds and McDonald's products or Wawa and Wawa's products

· Marvel Comics characters such as the Flash are not ours

· We cannot call any claims on Charles Dicken's characters, such as Oliver Twist

· We don't own Edgar Allen Poe

· There are various things, people, and places we quote and misquote frequently, and just generally don't have any claim to whatsoever:

1)Utena (duh).
2) Monty Python.
3) Star Wars.
4) Douglas Adam's "The Restaurant at the End of..."
5) The Princess Bride's, "That is the sound of ultimate suffering..." 
6) That fun line "The world may never know..." from the Tootsie Pop commercials

· In the Adventures of the Akio Car, Wakaba starts following Ryoga - he's not ours ;)

· And we really can't lay any claim on Jerry Springer

· As a matter of fact, we randomly throw in characters from Ranma ½, Gundam Wing, Weiss Kruez, Slayers, and other animes we like -- just because.

· The Catholic Church is not ours.

· Same with the Boondock Saints and Antonio Banderes, much as we wish they were...

· Tinker Toys belong to whatever toy company had the foresite to create them, and therefore are not ours, and same with Toys 'R Us.

· Akio's line, "My Akio-sense is tingleing," used to belong to Spiderman; however, we have completely ruined that one. We apologize. It's not our fault. Also, Peter Parker makes a guest appearance on our page.

· Elvis is his own person, however dead he may (or may not) be.

· Sadly, we cannot assume any liability for Touga's poll (but that doesn't stop us from trying)

Karen continues, trying to sound humble and just not succeeding, "Please, don't use any of the stuff listed as ours on your pages or in your fanfics without e-mailing and asking us first. It took us a while to come up with some of this, and even longer to convince ourselves that we wanted to write it down, so if we browse various Utena pages and see our lists, edited and with no mention of Becka and Ka-chan... well, you'll make us cry." Karen attempts to look as pathetic as Becka on a good day and fails miserably. "Please?"
