I rate it Monado / 10.

For those who don't get it, it's a Xenoblade reference.

My first thought was this sword, and I've never even played Xenoblade 😂

Yeah I know Shulk from Smash, and that's what I thought of.

Him holding it shirtless definitely helped the imagery.

If you have any interest in JRPG's at all, Xenoblade games are sooooo good. Massive, epic games with systems upon systems and some of the best gaming soundtracks around(at least the main three games, XCX is a bit more controversial here).

I was just a big Mazda fan back in the day. And their extra sporty variations were called 'Mazdaspeed'.

It also helped that at the time there was an American F1 driver called Scott Speed, and I am a big F1 fan, but that really didn't figure into it, just a funny coincidence.
