The '''Short Bow''' (Japanese: {{hl|ショートボウ|Shōtobō}} ''Shortbow'' or {{hl|短弓|tan yumi}} ''Shortbow'') is an uncommon [[bow]]-type weapon in the {{FES}}, debuting in {{title|Thracia 776}} and appearing in all three [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] games. The main features of this weapon depend on the game where it is present: in ''Thracia 776,'' it is a very common and inexpensive bow; in {{title|The Binding Blade}} and {{title|The Blazing Blade}}, it is mainly used by mounted archers from [[Sacae]]; it is an uncommon but fairly normal bow in {{title|The Sacred Stones}}. In the Game Boy Advance games, it has a small critical bonus.
