If you're catching yourself thinking "that piece of media can't possibly be old enough to [X]", remember the 5/10/20 rule:

If it's five years old, it's old enough to have been a formative influence for up-and-coming artists; this is when all the people who had their brains fucked by it as teenagers start hitting their 20s

If it's ten years old, it's old enough to have crossed the irony threshold; if it's the sort of media that's amenable to deconstructions (or "deconstructions"), expect them here

If it's twenty years old, it's old enough for the first wave of nostalgic revivals, often as a delayed reaction against the above-cited deconstructions; otherwise known as the "retro" event horizon

Yes, this does mean that, for example, Gamecube launch titles are retro now. That is how time works.

(For the Gen Z folks in the notes making fun of Millennials for not knowing how old the Gamecube is, I will remind you that the Xbox 360 also turns 20 next year. None of you are safe!)

Oh man… This is no longer my lane but I can’t leave this at “1000 year old sword”.

This is Mikazuki. The Crescent Moon blade.

This sword was crafted by Sanj(y)o Munechika and is older than 1000 years. (The Smith’s oldest signed work is from 987).

There are only 5 of the smith’s pieces remaining and this one exhibits one of the first times in history that the Japanese sword takes on it’s utilitarian curved shape.

This sword was owned by a laundry list of important historical figures including Oda Nobunaga’s general Toyotomi Hideyoshi who unified Japan.

You are essentially looking at a Japanese Excalibur.

I am humbled to even be able to see a picture of this sword.

If I could ever see this blade in person I might just die there on the spot.

This blade is one of the finest examples of the blacksmith’s art ever created. Ever. Anywhere. Period.

An original Dragon Booster design commissioned by @neoninu of a Green Bull-Class dragon. I was given free reign to design this big chonky boy however I felt was right, and man, I am very happy with how he came out. But even more so happy with the all caps adulation that Neo provided in response to the finished product, lol.

The panthrovori, a fearsome dog-like beast that is very noble, but also very territorial. They protect what’s theirs with a burning passion, no threat or risk escaping their eyes. They stalk their home with ease, often never noticed at all thanks to their dark, spotted scales...or until it’s too late. They cannot be controlled, they cannot be tamed, and the Talmidine Empire has declared them wild beasts that are to be either avoided, or eliminated. But there is one human girl who’s discovered that whole panthrovori cannot be tamed...they can be befriended, and become ferocious allies.
