Bedivere is the one character in Arthuriana that I can imagine being the stereotypical anime swordsmaster of the Round Table.
You know the one... the cliché Iaido user, who can whip out his sword, slash you a billion times and resheathe the sword in a blink of an eye. As well as being able to dash so fast, it looks like he's teleporting (although that's Galahad's thing, apparently).
Of course, Bedivere is an amputee, so he gets points for being held back and never at his full potential. This also makes him the guy who gets constantly underestimated by both his enemies and his companions.
But whenever Bedivere gets serious...
