Trivia

Rienfleche's description error.

• In the NTSC English version of The Blazing Blade, Rienfleche's help text description—"Can strike consecutively"—is an error, as it has no such effect; this was changed in the PAL English version to match that of the other S-rank weapons: "For experienced units only." This error is not present in Rienfleche's Japanese description.
• The Reinfleche's French name, Arbalète, is the same as that of Arbalest from Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.
