- Cinderella: Ugh! Look at this mess!
- Snow White: This calls for a song!
- Yuna: With a smile and a song
We watch Fluffy gobbling its prey
Your life fades away
And your heart is gone
- David: Allegedly, Yuna’s teacher is so afraid of her that she’s giving her A’s all the time.
- Ye Thuza: Not bad for a little girl who has never hit anyone in her life.

@ Legal Advice:
I heard rumors that they were satanic so they would probably cut your head off or something.
I don’t think referring to characters is copyright. I think it’s more of a parody. I guess as long as he dosent use the Disney logo or make very distinctive faces that make it look like the actual princesses he is not infringing. And besides Disney is a Multi million dollar company so why the hell would they care about a simple web comic anyway? It’s not like its Crapcom.
On a totally un related note RIP Megaman Universe.
@ WAFFLES:
LeL? You mean LOL?
Are we really surprised? She knows Joker’s pencil trick.
I call bull. No way Merida’s gonna get taken down by a stupid bug. No matter how cheerful it looks.
lesson for life: the cuter they look, the scarrier they are!

The *original* German? I thought Novil had said before that the English version was the main version.
They just never found the body

And may the world never know o.o
While I do like Yuna and her mom I still gotta say…
How the hell did this kid get so warped?!
Oh Merida. All she wanted was nice shoes!
@ Kobra:
Go to the thrift shop.
Shit they got them for 99 cents
I love/hate Disney and I have a not-so-secret love for harmless megalomania. So this is food for my soul.
Loving it, so far, though this seems like the end of it. Which is fine, good things must come to an end.
Kids. Making the best movie scenarios since 20th Century Fox.
I discovered this comic last night, and I stayed up all night reading every strip.
It’s an amazing comic that gives me an insight into the “normal” childhood that I never experienced.
(PS. There really needs to be more Larisa, she’s amazing)

I know that I usually only read the English version. Even though I’m Swiss and German is my mother tongue.
But then, I’m quite fluent in English and webcomics actually have proven to be rather helpful keeping it that way.
Fun fact: I live not too far from Novil, actually. I could be there in about two and a half hours by car.
@ Switch Master:
In what Disney world has there ever been a thrift store?
Just adding salt to the the wounded Lawyer – all characters depicted are not Disney Property.
Never were and pray they never will be.
Despite the lawyers protestations, all are public domain or are the Lawyers laying claim to our heritage and saying that all these folk stories and their characters are theirs now to lock up under copyright because they made a movie adaptation of them?
Because shooting people in the face with a nerf-gun doesn’t count as hitting them.

The standard corporate method is to bully smaller creators who reference their properties anyway, knowing that although they would lose in court, the little guys can’t afford to go to court at all. However, despite their reputation Disney are actually more easygoing than most in this matter.
It could be because they’re so big they don’t feel they need to take such a hard stance as their peers, or it could be because they’re so big that even their legal dept. would be overwhelmed trying to chase down everyone who made a Disney reference, but whatever the reason, parody of Disney is safer than many others.
Imagine the Williams family playing paint ball or air soft as one team, against another team 20 times bigger than them. We all know who would win that fight.
The song is a direct parody of Snow White’s musical number “With a Smile and a Song” from the 1937 film written by Frank Churchill and Larry Morey. “With a smile and a song; Life is just a bright sunny day; Your cares fade away; And your heart is young”
As for Disney suing for copyright infringment, Title 17 section 107, “Fair Use” includes parody works, (Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music 1994) which would be the case here.
Secondly, while Disney earned a reputation for suing companies that used their images and other owned works in the 1980s, the company’s current “unofficial” position on the matter is to ignore such cases, even when they are brought to the company’s attention. (I know this from personal experience regarding a case where the BBC wanted material for a documentary and WDC Public Relations directed them to obtain the material from a website that is technically breaking copyright by having it downloadable from their site)
YMMV as always
