In Fate/Grand Order, Alter Mysterious Heroine X's 3rd stage looks like this

![Alter Mysterious Heroine X 3rd stage](https://i.stack.imgur.com/vwWfJ.jpg)

to me she looks very much like a Sith Lord from Star Wars because

  * The Sith often wore black hoods
  * Alter Mysterious Heroine X's Excalibur looks like a Red Light Saber
  * She looks like she is using Force Lightning
  * She has eyes like that of [The Emperor](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ok5mR.jpg) and [Anikin](https://i.stack.imgur.com/73UIU.jpg)

So I am wondering, was Alter Mysterious Heroine X's third form inspired from
Star Wars?

Based on the [Mysterious Heroine X
(Alter)](http://fategrandorder.wikia.com/wiki/Mysterious_Heroine_X_\(Alter\)),
this form is indeed based on being a Sith Lord!

You can see this [double-bladed attack](https://youtu.be/SOXVDpR-I00?t=20) on
Youtube

This is due to the fact that, prior to the English release in June 2017, there
was a [Saber Wars
Event](http://fategrandorder.wikia.com/wiki/Saber_Wars_Event) in January 2016
for the JP release. This appears to be a parody based on the release of Star
Wars: The Force Awakens in December 2015
