About

The Excalibur Face is a reaction face, signifying an intense feeling of dislike, much like Do Not Want.

Other variations of this reaction face include the (ﺧ益ﺨ) emoticon.

Origin

The Excalibur Face originates from the anime Soul Eater, in which Excalibur is concidered to be the most powerful weapon in the world. Technically anyone should be able to wield him, but unfortunately, people are unable to stand him for extended periods of time.

He has an inflated ego, interrupts other speakers by calling them "fools", and goes on long, nonsensical rants. He also demands that his meister performs one thousand tasks, such as a daily five-hour reading of his own book, or celebrating his birthday on grand scale (which also happens to be a daily routine).

Because of this, everyone who has had previous encounters with Excalibur, will express their intense dislike with an "Excalibur Face", every time he is brought up in a conversation.

Usage

As the anime implies, the most common usage of this reaction face is to use it as a reply to anyone who brings up the character of Excalibur in a conversation. It is also a popular practice to photoshop the Excalibur Face on other characters, to be used as a reaction face to signify an intense feeling of dislike.
