Naruto Memorial Project (entries!)

Wed Sep 15, 2004, 5:09 PM
EDIT4: New entry added below from ~ aoi-sora I'll have an official page for this project with links to the artists and their art set up soon!

Woo-hoo~ The ball's rolling now on the project! We have over fifty reservations -- meaning over fifty artists have confirmed they wish to participate in the project! We're already receiving entries too! This doesn't mean you others have to rush. The official deadline for the project is November 1st (Dia de los Muertos-- The Day of the Dead). Needless to say, you may begin immediately upon having your character assignments. The randomizer will be closed next week, so if you haven't been assigned a character and still wish to participate, please do so immediately.

I'm really happy with the quality of the pictures thusfar and especially with all the enthusiasm and support that's been fueled into this project. You guys really make this worthwhile and I think each and every one of you.

**SPOILER ALERT**

If you do not wish to have critical plot points or character deaths spoiled for you from the Naruto anime/manga, please read no further. This project is one big spoiler.

**Next Kiriban--30000**
Theme: Undecided

Congrats to ~CreamyWay for winning my 25k kiriban! Thanks for all the hits. You guys really blow me away!

To claim the kiriban, supply a full screenshot including the counter and your computer clock for verification. If the exact number of the kiriban isn't hit, I'll take the closest posted hit after. If there are mutliple claims, the first is accepted. (Due to a trend of kiriban hunters--not that I don't appreciate it, because I :heart: you all, but I'm going to have to make a new rule of 'no repeat customers'.) Sorry about that ^^ I think it'll be more fair to others, though. Still, good luck!

:bulletred: Prints Available: I have an assortment of prints that I'm offering on direct order to be sent via snail mail. The prints are listed below. I accept money order and Paypal payments (sorry, no personal checks). If you'd like to purchase a print contact me via comment, devnote, or email at mercybrand at hot mail dot com (type it like a normal email address, yes) and I'll give you more billing information and collect your snail mail address for shipping.

wtf ...?
I never read but-someone dies?
well....i know the guy that looks like a girl died but...
DID NARUTO DIE!!?


Jesus,I'm still mourning over Spike's (Cowboy Bebop) sudden death.
The one he loves died too...that eppi sucks.
:iconthe-z:
Many people die, but that seems to be the ninja-ish thing to do :giggle:.

Spike's death was hard. I couldn't even listen to the song 'Blue' that plays in that scene for almost a full six months without crying.

But no, Naruto doesn't die ^^ He's the title character! They'd have to change the name of the series if he bit it ^_-

O.O NOO! Neji and Chouji died? Haha, I'm not far into the series. =P lol It seems like Sasuke is really getting out-of-control. ^^;

"Are you mentally sane?"
"Um...no?"
"What?!"
"I meant YES!!!"
^^; Haha, good times.
:iconsora-ko:
Spike Spiegel DIES? T_____T No! ;___; Aah, I hate it when a series ends with the main character(s) dying... ~__~

I've yet to see Bebop (only saw the movie), but I didn't know it turned so sad. Does Faye survive? 0__0 *likes her lots*

Sorry about the Bebop spoilers there @_@

But yeah, he dies. And frankly, as I've thought about it, it's the only way it could truly be a satisfying ending. There very much a feeling of completeness to Spike's story, even if it is sad. So, he has a very meaningful and touching death.

Faye remains alive, as does Jet, Ein, and Ed, though ^^ But then, the story wasn't so much about them as they were swept up in Spike's story and then left whirling in his passing.

Bebop is an intensely beautiful series.

That's what I hear about Sasuke. I haven't read much past the Chuunin exams. I really need to.

It's only presumed that Neji and Chouji are dead. There's never been a funeral for them, but by the look of things, there's a real finality to their stories. As such, people don't argue too much if they're in the Memorial Project ^^

I'll be pleasantly surprised if it turns out neither are dead. Chouji's super cool and Neji was really redeeming himself.

Ah, I see. ^^ In the manga, I'm still in the chunnin exams. =P *sigh* Yeah, both Chouji and Neji were special! Hehe, yup they deserve this tribute! In my opinion at least, lol.

:iconscortia:
There's hope... their supposed deaths were left REALLY out in the open... nothing confirmed, just a ton of hinting... somehow I wouldn't be surprised if all the kids make it through this one with just some ruptured organs. ^^;; Poor Neji, he got some horrible injuries.
:iconthe-z:
They were purposefully left open-ended, I'm sure ^^ And hey, if Lee can recover from what he did, maybe Neji can? There's always hope. :)
