Excalibur is not a thing, something you can hold in your hand.
Excalibur is the good in you.
The power to do good, to stand up for what's right, to slay dragons, to capture bank robbers.
You always carry Excalibur in your heart.


Robert Tinnell, Kids of the Round Table (1995)

Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works (2010)

Recently released in Japan Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works (2010) is based on the Fate/Stay Night (2005) computer game, an innovative take on the Arthurian story that has spawned a multimedia franchise (including a manga and anime series), and features a female version of King Arthur (she's the blond with the sword) who comes to the present to engage in the Holy Grail Wars, a battle between a group of Magi and their Servants (all epic heroes or mythological figures) for possession of an unholy Grail.
