Archer is a popular character from Type-Moon's visual novel Fate/stay night. In the game, he is the Servant (someone who fights for his or her master) of Rin Tosaka, one of the series' main female casts. Archer is a skilled fighter at projectile weapons, and has a Reality Marble (think of a special sorcery that creates an alternate reality) called "Unlimited Blade Works." To activate "Unlimited Blade Works," Archer first needs to complete a special chant.

Due to Archer's popularity, many variations of his chant can be found around the web made by fans.

Akiba Blog has posted two interesting variations of Archer's chant from stores found in Akihabara.

The first parody, titled "Moe," comes from the Gamers (Broccoli's retail stores) headquarters located in Akihabara, while the second one is AsoBit City's "Plamo" (Plastic Model).

umw

The "Moe" chant is a promotion for the Fate/stay night Visual Collection.

"Moe"

I am the book of moe
I am about Saber, but sometimes it's swimsuit
I have created over a thousand sellouts
Unknown to waste a page
Nor known to losing a customer
This book is always alone
Personally intoxicated by Illyasviel
Hence, withholding purchases is meaningless
So as I prey, Unlimited Moe Works

The "Plamo" chant was put out by the store to let people know the store sells plastic models on the 3rd floor.

"Plamo"

I am the bone of my plamo
Plastic is my body, and paint is my blood
I have crafted over a thousand plamo
Unknown to negligence
Nor to stop the fan
Have withstood pain to create many plamo
Intoxicated by thinner in a small room
Yet, those hands will never be interested in ready-made plamo
So as I pray, Unlimited Plamo Works
