This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

[Crosswordy] Utena "Spinoffs"

Each clue describes a (nonexistent) TV series called "___utionary Girl Utena."  All you have to do is name the shows.  For instance, if the clue is, "This show is about a girl whose life's dream is to operate a guillotine," you say, "Executionary Girl Utena."  As a bonus, if you get them all, their first letters will spell out a word.  Please put all answers and guesses in spoiler tags. emot-smile


• This show is about an athlete who is brought in midgame to cover for a teammate.

• This show is about a girl who helps write her nation's founding document.

• This show's Catholic main character seeks spiritual forgiveness for her sins.

• This show's title character can't keep straight who said what: "As Friedrich Nietzsche once wrote, 'Do you like green eggs and ham?'"

• This show follows a girl who enters criminal law in order to partner with Miles Edgeworth and William Jennings Bryan.  (No, it is not Revolutionary Girl OnlyInThisLight.)

• This is a show about a girl who turns from a fish into a reptile, then into a small mammal, and finally into a human.

• This show is about a girl who tries really hard to keep the promises she made on New Year's Eve.

• This show's main character makes the mistake of swimming outdoors during a thunderstorm.

• This show is about a girl who is out for revenge.

Nicely done on all but #5, Claymore!  Your answer to #5 is defensible, but what if your job were to do the opposite of defending it?...

Re: [Crosswordy] Utena "Spinoffs"

Malna, you rocked this! emot-biggrin  Your #4 answer is not mine.  "There's no evidence that Voltaire ever said 'I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it,' even though the quotation is commonly ___ed to him."

In #8 your thinking is exactly right, it's just not quite how we say it. emot-smile  The word is [electrocution(-ary)]!

And #9 you've left blank!  I bet you can get it, though, if you haven't already!

Re: [Crosswordy] Utena "Spinoffs"

At first I believed that your additional clue meant that #5 was [Objectionary], which was really funny but didn't fit the acrostic clue. I'm pretty sure I've got it now though.
