* Rei/Sailor Mars of ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' gains a bow and arrow made of ''flames'' in the fourth season. She's a calm, mystical [[Miko]], rather than the typical temperamental fire warrior (in the manga at least, the anime makes her more [[Hot-Blooded]]), although she occasionally made bids for the leadership (losing out to [[The Fool]], at that). |

* Mew Mint from ''[[Tokyo Mew Mew]]'' has a tiny bow and arrow covered in hearts. In the manga, it was an undetailed longbow, but this was changed out to its anime counterpart later on, along with the other weapons, because Ikumi Mia liked them better. Minto is a dainty [[Ojou]] with a surprising [[Fan Girl]] side, and Mew Mint fights mostly from the air, so it fits either way. |

* In ''[[×××HOLiC]]'', Doumeki Shizuka lives in a Shinto shrine and is a star of the school archery team. Not too surprisingly, he turns out to have the power to exorcise evil spirits with his bow. |

* Fai from ''[[Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]]'' very rarely carries a weapon; pretty much the only time we see him do so is in Yama country, where he appears as a highly competent horseback archer. This is probably what led to him being depicted in uncounted fanart (''and'' official splash pages) carrying some sort of firearm. Actually, the only people in the series to even handle guns are Kurogane (in Jade) and Sakura (in Tokyo.) Odds are even if he'd even know how to use a gun. |

* ''[[Koihime Musou]]'''s Kouchuu, being a [[Hot Shounen Mom]] [[Expy]] of Huang Zhong, comes with a bow and can shoot a straight arrow that stuns birds by ''purposely'' missing their head. And no, those enormous melons of hers do not hinder her bow skills. |
