When I was like 10, watching Naruto on Cartoon Network, I thought their outfits were the coolest thing ever. I loved meeting new characters just to see more innovative ways to don a ninja headband. The bandages, the pouches, and the vests were actually pretty practical fashion for fighting ninjas but also somehow emo Hot Topic energy. Fun fact: those fishnet layers are actually supposed to be chain mail underneath. That makes way more sense, but honestly, they just looked like a bunch of cool alternative kids.
Now, imagine your favorite childhood Cartoon Network characters – Courage, Dexter, Blossom, Jake and Finn, the whole gang — decked out in full Naruto ninja gear. Headbands, kunai, flared sleeves, pouches on pouches, standing in the same very cool poses ninjas tend to strike before showing off their abilities during battle. It's the exact type of mashup that your 10-year-old self would've spent recess trying to emulate, except now this artist did it for real. Scroll down to see them in their full ninja glory.
