#Ancient Japan's History

[misteria247]

Personal Tmnt/Rottmnt aus that I've personally got going on and a brief summary of them:

Universal Collision- The godfather. Universal Collision is a crossover between the 12 series and the Rise series. It's basically the boys learning to get along and somewhere down the line become a family of sorts. As well as learning about each other and fighting a foe that's lurking in the shadows.

Turtles Forever Crossover- The grandchild of Universal Collision in a way. Basically this au exists in the Universal Collision timeline, yet it's its own little thing. In an attempt to get the Rise boys home, the group of turtles, humans and their rat and goat dads end up accidentally in the 03 lair. There they meet others such as the 87 group, 03 gang, 07 gang, Bayverse group, Ronin Mikey and Future Rise Leo and Future Rise Mikey. It's basically just shenanigans with a side of angst. This au also interacts with other people's aus given that it's a huge multiverse thing. (Example of this being @lieutenantbiscute's Shellshock au. Basically it's free game for anyone with an au).

12 Turtle Tot Leo- Another grandchild of Universal Collision, however the 12 gang is in the Rise verse, again a thing all of it's own. During a battle with a yokai witch, Leonardo (12 Leo), ends up taking a hit of mystics and gets deaged back to two or three years old. It's basically the 12 gang and Rise cast taking care of Leonardo while he's small. Yes this includes villains and certain yokai skeletons.

Oroku Siblings- A separate au all together. This one is a separated Leo one from the 12 series. It was mainly inspired by how similar Leo can get to the Shredder and one question. "What would Leo be like if he'd been raised by the Shredder alongside Karai?" The answer is basically a morally grey Leo and his unbreakable bond with his beloved older sister. Leo in this au was separated from Splinter and his brothers during a Kranng ambush. At the age of four he was found washed up by Karai and the rest is history.

Ancient Japan's History- Also a separate au that takes place in the 12 verse and also a newer one. This one is a separation but with all the boys being raised, completely unaware of one another's existence save for Mikey who's a yokai. It takes place in the realm of Usagi Yojimbo's world of ancient Japan. The boys all have different backgrounds entirely. Mikey is a yokai who knows more than he let's on and is the main reason that he and his brothers learn about one another. Raph is a ronin ninja who travels all over Japan doing odd jobs ranging from assassinations to body work. Donnie is an inventor of a small village who has taken over the shop of his departed guardian who was the original inventor. And Leo is a monk who's strong in spiritual abilities and is known to be one of the best at banishing and exorcising demons and yokai. When an ancient demon known as the Shredder is brought back into the world, the boys band together in search for a mysterious being known as Splinter who had disappeared without a trace eons ago.

Yasuke - the African Samurai One of the most fascinating historical figures of all time imo; a former-slave (likely) from Mozambique who was sent to Japan by Portuguese Jesuits and became a retainer under Oda Nobunaga. What a story! I hope you guys enjoy

Adorable note by Sayuri Sasai, showing a Tanabata (star festival) celebration in old Edo.

They stress that Tanabata, and its tradition of writing wishes on tanzaku (paper strips) before tying those up on bamboo, spread among Edo commoners thanks to the terakoya (temple elementary school system) which increased literacy.

The boy is anxiously wishing for his handwriting to get better, and below him you can see how the classical rectangular tanzaku could also be shaped like notebook, abacus or writing brush, or watermelon or gourd - something popular among young students ^^

The street peddlers below offers Tanabata related goods such as bamboo stalks and the tanzaku papers. Besides them, a popular summer dish of somen (cold noodles) is eaten for good luck (the longer the noodle, the longer the life).

An enormous 7-foot iron sword has been found in an ancient burial mound in Japan. It was created as a weapon of ‘spiritual warfare’ for use in afterlife battles where demons strived to capture one’s journeying soul.

生け花 (Ikebana) - the centuries old Japanese art of flower arrangement

Originally used as funeral offerings with no particular symbolism, flower arrangements have been apart of Japanese tradition since the Heian period (794-1185). Ikebana evolved to become a common decoration in Japanese homes, commonly reflecting religious belief.
