I do not own Bleach or Rudolph, the Red-Nose Reindeer, although I always thought the animated version would make a great pet. My apologies to Rudolph.


Renji, the red-haired reaper,

Had a shiny Zanpakutou;

But if you ever saw it,

You would know its power was low.

All of the other reapers

Used to call their swords by name;

They never let poor Renji

Join in any reaper games.

Then a challenge came one day,

Byakuya made a taunt,

"Renji, with your hair so bright,

Won't you be Bankai-ed tonight?"

Then all the reapers coached him,

Jyuu, Shiro, and 'Pachi,

"Renji, the red-haired reaper,

Tonight's the night you'll beat Kuchiki."
