Best sword in cartoon, movie, or video game

Looking for a bit of nostalgia I was watching some old ThunerCats episodes and I remembered as I kid I always wanted to have a Sword of Omens. But what do y'all think is the most badass sword from an old cartoon, movie, or video game?
 
Voltron: When Voltron forms the blazing sword, it's game over for the ro-beast or whoever it's fighting.

From Final Fantasy?
From a specific Final Fantasy?


I liked the Buster Sword and pretty much all the oversized swords from FF7.

Also like the huge-ass sword the demon carries from the first Lord of the Rings movie. At least I think thats the one in my memories.
Actually, I think theres a bunch of anime and movies with demons holding huge flaming swords. Any of those would work.

On a completely unrelated note: The Windows version of FF7 has a few home made mods out there which enchance the games models. Someone did a serious update of the world map and in-battle characters and they look MUCH better, especially the weapons.
Theres also a mod to make the game run at 1280x960 and 1280x1024.
 
Ichigo's sword from Bleach Zangetsu in its initial release form although its final release doesn't look half bad either.
 
The sword used by Gray Fox in MGS that he used to great effect on pretty much anything it touched, the high-frequency blade.
 
Best by what criteria? Most of the swords in cartoons and videogames would be horrably unweildable if built for real.

Blade's ninja-to or the Kuergan's broadsword from Highlander would actually be useable.
 
Baldur's Gate 2: There's that one sword you can only get by cheating; either by dumping it directly into your inventory or using a warp-code to get to an area cut out of the final game. It does around 5000 damage per hit. Considering teh normal damage from a longsword is 1-8 hit points, that's scary.

pearl sword from final fantasy 6
I believe that was called the Illumina in American FF3. Very nice. It bumped up all your stats significantly and used a little MP to do massive critical hits. Randomly cast Pearl.

Its brother (the sword exchanged for it at the Colliseum) was Ragnarok, also very good. Had the same abilities and randomly cast Flare on strike.
Not to mention they both looked cool.
