You fail life.

Dunno that I'd go that far, but... yes, delete this piece of nonsense  
and in its place credit Takahashi plus anybody else whose work you are  
borrowing from.

You have the entire rest of the fic to impress us with your sense of  
humor. The disclaimer is for giving credit where it's due, a gesture  
that costs you nothing and shows respect for the author whose  
characters you are using. If I wrote a fanfic that took off from one  
of yours, you'd want me to acknowledge that, right? So do unto others  
and save the jokes for the fic itself.
