Bleach Casual Artbook-Inspired Cosplay Photoshoot

[ceruleanmorning]

Since our proper costumes aren't ready yet, we decided to go with their casual style which shines particularly well in Kubo Tite's Bleach artbook, All Colour But the Black and some of the colored spreads he does for the Bleach manga. I cosplayed Ichigo, with my friends as Rukia, Orihime and Urahara.







Ichigo and Rukia look ahead upon spotting something suspicous hovering in the distance. Orihime patiently waits for someone to give instructions. Urahara simply snickers behind his fan, highly amused by Rukia's hippie look for the day.



I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along,
I will follow you, and keep you strong
- "Life Is Like a Boat", Rie Fu

This is where the cheese ends and the IchiRuki vs. IchiHime vs. RenRuki shippers start bickering. I kid, I kid!



I'll say "I love you" to the one I love
Even if my feelings aren't returned,
I can say "I love you" to the one I love
And that's the most beautiful thing in the world
- "Sen no Yoru Wo Koete", Aqua Timez



If perchance I could have become a comet
I would go flying through the sky
No matter what kind of tomorrow comes, this thought is strong
So my comet is unbreakable
- "Houki Boshi", Younha



Poses and setup based on a particular illustration which some of you may recognize. :D

That's it for now. Few more photos on the way, then there'll be a second installment where hopefully at least Ishida and Chad will be present. :)

Cracktastic omake photos here, hohoho.
