All wikipedia mentions is that it blinded a few people when it was first drawn.

What did your history teachers say about wikipedia!?

[Empiricist]

Then do please tell me what source your information is from.

I'm pretty sure Caladbolg was even MORE broken, and I recall it was either the predecessor to Excalibur or the same sword.

Caladbolg sounds like pretty much the Nasuverse version of Excalibur.

Except about a hundred times more FABULOUS~

Research says that yeah they're basically the same sword.

Also, fucking Cuchulainn used it at some point.

...

ahaha that is fucking glorious Lancer has fucking excalibur somewhere in his back pocket.

....
We must have Yuri wield it at one point. This must happen.

Also, it's fucking Lancer, he probably lost it in a bet or something, such is his luck.

And now everything is incomprehensible again.

Almost 1:00 and I have summer school.

Wait which sword?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Caladbolg, for the FABULOUS factor.

Caladbolg, for the FABULOUS factor.

it leaves a fucking rainbow vapor trail behind it whenever you swing it

It is the most fabulous of all blades.

Okay, now that one I heard of. All you to do is draw a poptart cat on it and then you can rechristen it as NyanCat.

Still, seriously if Wikipedia is unreliable, where you all get your information on such matters?

Goku didn't die for this, guys.

Mine's mostly from memory because I can't be assed to go looking up primary sources at four in the morning.

I distinctly remember that name for the sword, though, and that particular power.

Getting any credible secondary source also seems quite difficult on these matters. Google scholar comes with IT and Physics results, and a regular search just pops out videogames and food dehydrators.

Might go trawling for myths and shit in the morning.

...

Encyclopedia Brittanica may work as... something at least.

Boop.

at least for it having some weird fucking powers.

oh hey I found a university research paper thing.

Boop.

So yeah that's the origin of it basically making it so you can't lose. Get serious and suddenly you're killing everyone in a single hit and ripping their soul out.

On an unrelated note, I can't wait for Self-defense. Then I can show off Excalibur's successor.

So while this discussion is lovely and everything you seem to have missed the point of Self-Defense. Namely, learning to fight without your own particular brand of supernatural bullshit.
And I don't know, but manifesting a sword out of fuckin nowhere seems pretty supernatural to me.
