{{examples|Examples}}
 
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh]]'' Spell Card Thousand Knives. Also, Winged Beast-Type monsters usually are depicted as having a [[Feather Flechettes|feather-based variant]].
* Dio Brando from ''[[Jo JosJo's Bizarre Adventure (Manga)|Jo Jos Bizarre Adventure]]'', who tends to be portrayed as following up [[Time Stands Still|ZA WARUDO]] with a veritable hail of knives (then capping things off with [[Death From Above|a steamroller]]).
* Cinque of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Strikers]]'', particularly at the end of her fight against Subaru, which has her launching all of her exploding throwing knives in a desperation attack.
** Before Cinque there was Reinforce/Book of Darkness with her Bloody Daggers.
Line 33:
** The Third Hokage has a technique which can take a few throw shuriken and [[Doppelganger Attack|turn it into]] a full-blow [[Flechette Storm]].
** Konan can make one of these using [[Paper Master|pieces of paper]].
** Gaara could do this in his [[Super -Powered Evil Side|Shukaku form]]
* Setsuna's artifact in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', Sica Shishikushiro, which can be summoned as 16 flying daggers to attack a target with.
** Fate Averruncus [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v30/c271/4.html uses a similar attack.]. He's also seen using a [[Flechette Storm]] in the 1st ''Mou Hitotsu no Sekai'' OVA during the gateport battle, when he summons a group of small rock-spears and fires them forward.
Line 80:
 
== Film ==
* ''[[Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon]]'' villain Jade Fox brings us this in the form of poison darts, which she fires from a blowgun at a rate that rivals ''[[Gatling Good|gatling guns]]''!
** In the same climactic battle, Li Mu Bai {{spoiler|kills Jade Fox by using the Green Destiny sword to shatter her own blade into a burst of steel shards that impale her}}.
* [[Aladdin (Disney)|"Get the point?"]]
Line 109:
* The Pin Missile and Poison Sting attacks in ''[[Pokémon]]''.
** And Spike Cannon, Twineedle and Icicle Spear...
* The ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' series has the cactuars and their 1000 Needles [[Fixed Damage Attack]]. Also the 10,000 Needles attack -- often a [[One -Hit Kill]].
** Also the Gil Toss ability and [[Final Fantasy VI|Setzer]]'s razor-sharp [[Death Dealer|cards]].
* [[Ninja Maid|Sakuya Izayoi]] from ''[[Touhou]]'' uses this in combination with [[Time Stands Still|her stopping time]], in a [[Shout Out]] to [[Jo JosJo's Bizarre Adventure (Manga)|Dio Brando]].
** Her predecessor from the PC-98 era, Yumeko, also a [[Ninja Maid]], does this minus the timestopping. [[Brother Chuck|Too bad no one remembers her]].
*** Truthfully, Yumeko is supposed to use [[Storm of Blades|swords.]]
