EDIT April 24th 09: The characters are put in RANDOM squads, they are not supposed to be cosplaying actual characters, they are just dressed up as RANDOM shinigami. STOP asking me why is that and that person in that and that squad geez ><

This is my thank you for 10,000 pageviews. I'd like to say again how much I appreciate your support! All your comments, kind words and suggestions made me enjoy drawing. Hell they made me enjoy life! So honestly thank you, everyone

I was planning this a long time before I hit 10,000 and I was actually inspired by this picture: [link] . I like both Naruto and Bleach and this was a great way to put them together! For those who don't know the anime, these are charas from Naruto dressed up as shinigami from Bleach. And don't you think some of them would make a perfect shinigami?

I know there's a lot of mistakes, but I am actually pretty pleased with the result. I was ill, so I had plenty of time to calm down whenever I lost patience, so I can proudly say every piece of it was done very carefully. I really hope you will like it, it's mostly for you guys!

What are they probably thinking: (note: taichou=captain, fukutaichou=vice-captain or lieteutant)

Yonbantai fukutaichou Haruno Sakura: *serious look* I'll protect Sasuke-kun no matter what!
Yonbantai taichou Uchiha Sasuke: Do I look cool like this??
Nibantai taichou Uzumaki Naruto: ...and I'm gonna make my own way of shinigami!
nibantai fukutaichou Hyuuga Hinata: *blushes* I'm Naruto-kun's fukutaichou!
Sanbantai fukutaichou Yamanaka Ino: *trying to look sexy*
Sanbantai taichou Temari: Why do I have to be teamed up with that chicken?!
Rokubantai fukutaichou Kankurou: Why I ain't I a captain?!
Rokubantai taichou Gaara: What's so funny about dressing up as a shinigami anyway...?
Jyuusanbantai taichou Rock Lee: If I won't make a prefect shinigami, I'll beat 100 Hollows!
Nanabantai taichou Nara Shikamaru: This is so troublesome...
Nanabantai fukutaichou Akimichi Chouji: Is there a restaurat in Soul Society?
Hachibantai taichou Aburame Shino: You'd like to know what I'm thinking, wouldn't you?
Hachibantai fukutaichou Inuzuka Kiba: I'd so rather be walking Akamaru...
Gobantai taichou Hyuuga Neji: Does fate want me to become a shinigami?
Gobantai fukutaichou Tenten: This costume is so comfortable!

I had fun making this. Uhm...doesn't the long description look scary?
