{{quote|''Among men, Lu Bu. Among horses, Red Hare''}}
 
Style name: Feng Xian. Japanese name: Ryofu Housen.
 
One of the most wellbest-known names from the ''[[Romance of the Three Kingdoms]]'', Lu'''Lü Bu''' is well known as one of China's most powerful warrior, but also known for being [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder|a backstabbing traitor]]. He's well known for having his unparalleled combat ability, his pheasant-tailed headdress, his horse Red Hare and, again, his tendency to betray those he serves.
 
His real parents were unknown but he made his first appearance in history as a servant of Ding Yuan (in the novel, he's actually a foster son). After being persuaded to betray Ding Yuan, Lu Bu did so with gusto and served Dong Zhuo, and together they were known for their ruthlessness in Dong Zhuo's tyrannical rule. Lu Bu served Dong Zhuo well, going as far as repelling the coalition against Dong Zhuo near-singlehandedly.

While he was indeed short-lived, one cannot deny that Lu Bu is probably the single, mightiest warrior in the age of the Three Kingdoms.
 
{{examples|Lü Bu in other media}}
----
== Lu[[Anime]] Buand in other medias:[[Manga]] ==
* As with the genderflip ''[[Ikki Tousen]]'', Lu Bu's counterpart is Ryofu, a troubled buxom girl who served under Toutaku (Dong Zhuo), but ended up betraying him and dying together with her lover Chinkyuu (... Chen Gong!?). She came back temporarily for the 3rd season.
* ''[[Ryofuko-chan]]'', an anime where a loli reincarnation of Lu Bu minus the evilness is the main character
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* ''[[Romance of the Three Kingdoms (video game)|Romance of the Three Kingdoms]]'' by Koei, in which Lu Bu is a mainstay and usually well known for his impressive WAR stat. His only drawback is his dumbass INT, which makes him suspectible to ploys.
* ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]''. Lu Bu is usually an antagonistic super boss, serving Dong Zhuo before striking on his own. There is a saying: "[[Memetic Mutation|Don't pursue Lu Bu.]]" You'd be best to heed that when you hear that being said. Although in your hand, he's usually a [[Game Breaker]].
** This carries over in ''[[Warriors Orochi]]'' where Lu Bu sided with Orochi to find worthy opponents throughout the ages. He finds two: Honda Tadakatsu in the first game, and Minamoto no Yoshitsune in the second game. Poor Orochi didn't take account of Lu Bu's backstabbing record, so he ended up betraying Orochi at one point.
* And againAgain with genderflipping, in ''[[Koihime Musou]]'', Lu Bu/Ryofu is instead an [[Emotionless Girl]] who likes animals. This is really contrasting to the historical/novel impulsive and hotheaded Lu Bu.
