Playing With Fire / Anime & Manga

Impressive firepower.

Playing with Fire in Anime and Manga.

---

• 3×3 Eyes:
  • The Hyoma royal family can control the Agni Maya, the Fire God Flames, which are used in combat or to bind monsters.
  • One of Benares' Nine-Headed Dragon Generals, named Ampral, can summon the "Eternal Flames" and use them to imprison demons, apparently burning them forever.
  • Several Juuma are fire-based and use flames, such as Huo Zhao (Fire Claw, creates a cutting burst of flames), Huo Yuan Hou Zhao (Flame Ape Claws, covers the fingers of the user in sharp fire nails), Yan Tou (Flame Skull, summons a gigantic fiery skull monster on a giant flexible neck), Huo Li Jia Chong (Fire Stones Beetle, releases a swarm of fire-coated bugs all around).
  • Fizz, one of the guards of Amara, has the power to control and manipulate flames. This ability allows her to control existing flames, even magical ones.
• Takahisa Tajima from Eleven Eyes has the ability to conjure and control fireballs. Which gets really bad when he goes into an Unstoppable Rage.

• Zelman Clock from Black Blood Brothers has a power called Eye Ignite which lets him create and control fire.
• In Black Cat, Kyoko, one of the members of the Apostles of the Stars, can raise her body temperature high enough to burn everything she touches, breathe fire, and create a force field made of fire. Her expies in To Love Ru as well. She usually passes this off as magic tricks and special effects on her show during her acting role as "Magical Kyōko" TV series, or to defend herself from perverts.
• Flame Magic is fairly common in Black Clover. Magna can throw different types of fireballs, Fuegoleon creates large fire forms, and Mereoleona uses her fire to burn through spells and form fists to pummel her enemies. Mars and Fana can also use fire to heal themselves, and Fana has the fire spirit Salamander, allowing her to create extremely destructive fire blasts and claw slashes. Leopold mostly blasts streams of fire, until he learns to use the Heart Kingdom's Mana Method to create true flames using natural mana.
• Bleach:
  • Shinigami head captain Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryusai uses the sword Ryujin Jakka (Flowing Flame Blade) but defies the personality portion of this trope by having learned self-control (a thousand years ago, he was much more thuggish and hot-headed). His zanpakuto's release command is "Reduce all creation to ashes, Ryuujin Jakka!" and the initial release can create an inferno capable of engulfing an entire town. Anyone within range tends to react with justifiable fear. His Bankai becomes The Power of the Sun. All of the flames are concentrated into the blade, and create an invisible armour of flame around both the sword and Yamamoto's body. Anything the blade touches is incinerated and anything that touches Yamamoto's body is incinerated. All of the moisture in Seireitei evaporates, and if the Bankai remains active too long, the world will be destroyed. Its maximum heat is the same as the core of the Sun—1.5 million degrees.
  • Hinamori is gifted with fire, including fire-based Kido. Her Zanpakutou is Tobiume ("Flying Plum Blossom", but can also refer to the snap and crackle of bonfire flames). Her Shikai is released with the command "Snap!" and produces fireballs that can create large explosions.
  • Grimmjow's Fraccion, Edrad Liones, gets this ability when he releases his Zanpakutou, Volcanica (Spanish for "Volcanic").
  • Love Aikawa's Zanpakutou, Tengumaru ("Long-Nosed Goblin"), has the ability to manipulate fire, though nowhere near to the extent of Yamamoto.
  • Isshin's Zanpajutou, Engetsu ("Scathing Moon"), is released with the command "Burn!". It appears to create a wall of flame and allow its user to literally spit fire.
  • Bazz-B is known as "The Heat" among the Vandenreich. His fire abilities are so great that he can stop Yamamoto's flames from killing himself and his comrades (though they did take some Clothing Damage), as well as melt Hitsugaya's ice with one finger.
  • Yuushirou's Shunkou is fire-based. Whenever he uses it, it causes huge explosions akin to a fire bomb.
  • Shusuke Amagai from the New Captain arc had fire-based powers.
  • Yoshino Soma's doll Goethe from the Bount arc was a fire elemental. Yoshino later merged with Goethe and obtained Human Torch-like powers.
  • The movie villains Yang (from the 2nd movie) and Shuren (from the 4th movie).
• Blue Ramun: The villainous Rowan voluntarily replaced his left arm with a Badass Transplant from a fire dragon. The draconic limb can shoot blasts of fire.
• Buso Renkin: The basic ability of Warrior Chief Hiwatari's napalm buso renkin, Blaze of Glory, gives him the ability to freely create and control fire, allowing him to unleash streams of fire at his enemies, a ball of flame that he can ride on and turn his entire body into fire. He is also able to increase the temperature of the flames under his control to 5,100 degrees.
• The Anti Anti Christ of Blue Exorcist has blue flames as his Red Right Hand.
• In Cap Revolution Bottleman, Cota Coga's Bottleman, Colamaru, shoots flaming bottle caps. At least one of them also has a phoenix in the background as Coga executes the attack.
• In Cardcaptor Sakura, there is the Fiery Card, which takes the form of a young boy with burning wings. Also, Syaoran uses a Paper Talisman with fire-based powers now and then. (Usually to fight Clow Cards, but he set Touya's jacket on fire with it once.)
• A Certain Magical Index:
  • Stiyl Magnus, the first magician Touma faces, uses liberally distributed magical runes to throw 3000°C fireballs and control an indefinitely regenerating fire demon (at least, as long as the runes aren't disrupted).
  • Fiamma of the Right is one of the most powerful human villains the series' protagonists have faced so far. His ability, "The Holy Right", manifests in the form of a flaming third arm behind him, allowing him to perform incredibly broken acts like conjuring a forty kilometer long Flaming BFS and flames which destroy objects without any destructive force.
  • Basically all Pyrokinesists^note espers with fire bending powers are this.
• Mao from Chibi☆Devi! magically breathes fire when wearing his dinosaur costume, which is ironic considering how even tempered he is, meanwhile, the much more quick tempered Karin uses ice.
• Ogami from Code:Breaker uses his flames to kill his enemies.
• 006 (Chang Changku) from Cyborg 009 can breathe fire hot enough to melt almost any surface.
• In Charlotte, Misa Kurobane has the ability “pyrokinesis” which enables her to ignite flames within her hands at will. She also has a fiery personality.
• One of contractors' power in Darker than Black is massive pyrokinesis. This would not be that bad...if it were so easily triggered instinctively or the contractor in question wasn't a little girl prone to emotional overreaction and rolling downhill into long, dreamwalking trances. Another contractor caused, at will, fiery explosions of handprints he previously left on something. Which is spectacular when the boy bothers to mark with his skin fat everything in a room.
• Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: Nezuko can summon magenta flames that errupt from her shed blood. They can annihilate opposing Blood Demon Arts and even heavily damage and hamper the regeneration of Upper Moons. Nezuko also shows some instances of direct pyrokinesis without having to spill any of the red stuff.

• In the anime Dragon Crisis!, we have Rose, a cute loli with a strange necklace—who is also able to throw fire.
• Fairy Tail:
  • Natsu, the Fire Dragon Slayer, and by extension his adopted dragon parent, the Fire Dragon King Igneel. Then there's also Natsu's Honorary Uncle, the Hell Flame Dragon Atlas Flame. Natsu in particular can eat and absorb flames, and use them against enemies.
  • Elemental Four member Totomaru, who can control flames as well create different-colored flames with different properties.
  • Macao, another Fairy Tail Wizard has Purple Flare, though it sticks to objects instead of burning them. His son Romeo, becomes a fire wizard after the Time Skip, and even took lessons from Totomaru.
  • Then there's Zancrow of the Seven Kin of Purgatory, who's a Flame God Slayer that uses black divine flames. The very first villain, Bora, also counts.
  • Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest reveals one of the Five Dragon Gods is Ignia, the Flame Dragon God, whose flames are so intense they burn despite being doused in water. And if you noticed the similarity to Igneel's name, that's because he's Igneel estranged biological son (and Natsu's adoptive brother) by over 400 years.
• Homura Hinooka's specialty in Fire Girl is to conjure flames and control them.
• Recca Hanabishi and Kurei from Flame of Recca specialize in this. They are also expies of Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami.
  • Recca especially, as in-universe his flame is cursed and thus formless, meaning he can use his flames as anything he can think of. In fact, his power gives the anime its title.
• Roy Mustang from Fullmetal Alchemist, aka the "Flame Alchemist". He uses alchemy to increase the concentration of oxygen in the air, then ignites it using gloves made of a material that sparks when he snaps his fingers. Notably, this is portrayed as one of the most destructive and lethal forms of alchemy known, and Mustang is considered one of the single most dangerous combatants in the show.
• While all the Suzaku Senshi in Fushigi Yuugi are the servants of the fire god, Tasuki is the only one with actual powers over fire and flames, probably because he's the most deserving, given his Hot-Blooded nature.

• Natsume Hyuuga from Gakuen Alice is a Fire Alice, although it comes with a price: he loses a bit of his life every time he sets something alight.
• The Garden of Sinners has Azaka Kokuto, whose fire abilities are shown in the 6th chapter.
• The title character of Hana the Fox Girl breathes foxfire when she becomes embarrassed.

• Amateur exorcist Izuna from Hell Teacher Nube. Her pyrokinesis first manifested when she experienced her first love, but unfortunately for her, it was completely uncontrollable and she tended to become Wreathed in Flames which would burn her clothes down to nothing (much to her distress and embarrassment), and Nube and friends were worried that her own fire could consume her. Eventually, she learned to control it with deadly accuracy.
  • Sorcerer Fox Tamamo and the three Oni siblings, Baki, Zekki, and Minki, also use fire as their main means of offense.
• Fire Force: This is the most common superpower by far in this manga. People with 'Spontaneous Human Combustion', as it's called, are classified into three categories:
  • 1st Generation, people with no control over their fire powers and are little more than mindless monsters when it randomly activates.
  • 2nd Generation, people who have the ability to control already existing flames, be it turning the fire into shapes, move it, or even nullify it.
  • 3rd Generation, people who are given strange abilities with fire and unlike 2nd gen, are able to create their own fire.
• Hoshin Engi:
  • Starter Villain Chinto wields the paope Karyuhyo (Fire Dragon's Javelin), a pair of boomerang-like weapons that leaves trails of scorching hot flames (hot enough to melt stone, according to Chinto) behind them. Upon defeating Chinto, Taikobo takes them for himself and later lends them to Kou Tenka.
  • One of the Juttenkun, the dual-bodied Shintenkun, wields the spatial paope Restuenjin (Raging Flames Formation), which allows them to set things inside it on fire and use them to attack.
  • Subverted during the fight between Fugetsu Shinjin and the Juttenkun Entenkun: when the former uses his paope to dissolve the latter's ice attack, Entenkun assumes that Fugetsu's paope is a fire-based one. Turns out, it manipulates atoms and chemical reactions.
  • The Ace of Kongrong, Nento Dojin, wields the Flaming Sword paope Hienken (Flying Flame Sword), but he's so skilled he can freely use fire-based techniques without the need for a paope.
• Hunter × Hunter: Feitan's Rising Sun turns his pain into becoming a miniature sun that burns everything.
• Renkotsu of the Band of Seven in Inuyasha is a firearms expert who seems to love blowing stuff up and even breathes fire with his explosives and other equipment.
• JoJo's Bizarre Adventure:
  • Phantom Blood: Jonathan Joestar can use the Ripple to perform an attack known as Scarlet Overdrive, where he charges Ripple into his fist in the form of a flame. He also sets his fist on fire to temporarily defeat Dio and his icy defenses.
  • Battle Tendency: Esidisi, one of the Pillar Men, uses what's known as the Flame Mode, which allows him to heat his blood up to 500 degrees Celsius, then fight with them by using his own blood vessels as a form of Combat Tentacles.
  • Stardust Crusaders: Muhammad Avdol's Stand, Magician's Red, has the ability to conjure and control flames. Strangely enough, his flames also seem to be useful at binding people.
  • JoJolion: Jobin Higashikata wields the Stand, Speed King, which is capable of a heat variant. It doesn't create physical fire, but it can indefinitely store heat of a single point in space, causing heat to build up over time, and when weaponized can cause multiple blood vessels to burst and leave his victims near catatonic. However, it is heavily implied that this is merely an application of Speed King's true power.
• Jogo from Jujutsu Kaisen is a cursed spirit with a volcano theme, and simply touching an opponent will instantly set them on fire. He can also create explosive bugs or cast a huge flaming meteor.
• HOMRA, the Red Clan in K, has powers that manifest as fire. The Red Sanctum represents destruction, and this is something that all of the Red Kings shown in the story have to grapple with.
  • The Red King Mikoto Suoh looks too calm to be considered a Fiery Redhead, but he's powerful enough to be a Person of Mass Destruction.
  • His Clansman, Misaki Yata, is definitely the Fiery Redhead type, and he uses his fire powers to propel his skateboard.
• Tomoe from Kamisama Kiss is a centuries-old Kitsune who has a tendency to summon fireballs so much he might qualify as pyromaniac. He also has a nasty little habit of combining this with Forced Transformation; namely transforming his victim into a game animal of some kind and than roasting them alive.
• Kämpfer: Natsuru uses fire powers as his Zauber ability.
• In Kaze no Stigma, the whole Kannagi family (except Kazuma) use fire magic due to the fact that the first Kannagi made a contract with the spirit king of fire. Ayano even fits the personality aspects of a fire user to a T, being a Tsundere, Hot-Blooded, and Fiery Redhead triple threat.
• In Kitsune no Yomeiri Kyouka has the ability to produce Fox Fire. These magical flames are usually only small balls of flame but can grow to great pillars of fire when she is angry.
• The Law of Ueki has the minor villain Maruo Taira, a power user with the power to turn water into fire by putting it in his mouth. His firepower gets stronger if he gargles the water, and he can even use it to create fireballs.
• Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions!: So Yuuta's delusions go. Black fire, to be exact.
• Lyrical Nanoha:
  • Signum (a.k.a. the Blazing General). There's also Agito, the fire-based Unison Device. The two of them eventually become partners.
  • Rio Wesley has both, fire and lightning powers. It's really rare to have two than one Magic Conversion Affinity.
  • Harry Tribeca has fire affinity.
  • Alisa Bannings in the Alternate Continuity, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha INNOCENT.
• In Magi: Labyrinth of Magic Heat/Fire is one of the eight types of elemental magic, and Aladdin's strong point (and only type of magic early on), while his friend Alibaba Saluja obtains the powers of the Fire Djinn Amon, who allows him to turn his dagger in a large pitch-black sword able to use heat to cut through anything and release flames to attack and move around. Other Fire Djinns include Cerberus (who can also control Ice and Lightning) and the formidable Astaroth, who allows its user Ren Kouen to unleash highly-destructive white flames and can allow the user to comfortly rest in magma, absorbing the heat to replenish the magic power.
• Hikaru Shidou from Magic Knight Rayearth, the Magic Knight of Flame (and a bit of Lightning).
• Musuko ga Kawaikute Shikataganai Mazoku no Hahaoya: Lorem's and Gospel's power. Gospel is still too young to generate his own heat yet, but like Lorem can tolerate high temperatures without problems. As for Lorem, when fully demonized her breath alone is hot enough to make other demons see their lives flash before their eyes.
• Quite a few people in My Hero Academia wield fire thanks to their Quirks:
  • Wielding fire is half of Shoto Todoroki's power, inherited from his father Endeavor; the other half is ice, inherited from his mother. Shoto notably refused to use his fire powers at the start of the series, because his father is such an asshole that Shoto refused to honor his wish of wielding fire. However, a talk from Izuku convinced him to start using both sides of his power, not for his father but for himself.
  • League of Villains member Dabi generates blue fire. He's also covered in burns and scars due to his power burning him the more he uses it. It's later revealed that this is due to him not having his father's flame resistance when he was born, and he only inherited his mother's ice resistance.
  • Though not seen in the story, Izuku Midoriya's father, Hisashi is said to be able to breathe fire. When trying to discover his own quirk as a child, Izuku would try to either breathe fire himself or pull objects towards him like his mother can.
• Mai Tokiha from My-HiME has an Element that allows her to manipulate fire.
• Naruto:
  • All the Uchiha clan members have a natural affinity for fire, though many of them can use other elements as well. In fact, fire is the dominant chakra nature of the Hidden Leaf Village as a whole (as would be expected from a place located in the Land of Fire), and the Sarutobi are another of its clans who seem to have a natural affinity for it. Some ninjas from other villages can use fire as well.
  • Both Sasuke and Itachi have an exclusive ability called Amaterasu, a special black fire which can burn anything, even regular fire.
• The Festival arc of Negima! Magister Negi Magi has Mei Sakura, who is also a fire magic specialist, and the significantly more competent Chao Lingshen, who, after releasing the seal on her magic, reveals herself to be scarily powerful at it. Later on, the main hero's childhood friend Anya displays this ability. From the arc following it is Homura, one of Fate's loyal minions and number four in the series he comes from, Quartum, Averruncus of Fire.
• One Piece:
  • Pearl, Co-Dragon to early villain Don Krieg, used friction from his gauntlets to ignite the armor he wore. He also flung small burning pearls.
  • Portgas D. Ace, main protagonist Luffy's older brother, is quite literary the embodiment of fire, having eaten the Mera Mera no Mi (Flame-Flame Fruit). He can create fire, manipulate it however he wants, and turn his body into it at will, allowing both for rocket-like flight and letting attacks pass through him. Extra credits for shooting flame beams from finger guns and creating a miniature sun. After Ace dies, the Mera Mera no Mi returns into circulation and, in the Dressrosa arc, is eaten by his and Luffy's other brother, Sabo.

• Marco the Phoenix can transform into a blue phoenix and can use fire to heal his wounds.
• Sanji's Diable Jambe (Devil Leg), which covers his foot in heat, allowing him to set fire to or burn opponents. After his dormant genetic modifications activate, he creates a stronger variant named Ifrit Jambe, which covers his leg in blue flames.
• Luffy gains the ability to coat his punches with fire during the Time Skip in a direct tribute to his older brother Ace. It's also subtle foreshadowing to his Devil Fruit's true nature as channeling the power of the Sun God Nika.
• Kin'emon, who can cut with fire as well as cut fire blasts. Zoro adopts this style much later.
• Charlotte Oven, of a sort. His Devil Fruit, the Heat-Heat Fruit (Netsu Netsu no Mi) allows him to radiate heat and make anything he touches extremely hot, as if they had been just taken out of the oven - case in point, Pedro tried attacking him with his sword and wound up scalding his hand badly because his sword overheated from touching Oven. Oven's younger brother Basskarte can also project fire from his hands (and, in the anime, his mouth).
• King, one of Kaido's All-Stars, displays the ability to create and manipulate high-intensity flames. It's eventually revealed that this is not a Devil Fruit ability (that would be turning into a pteranodon): he has this ability naturally by virtue of being a Lunarian.
• The anime-only character Don Accino has a similar power with his Hot-Hot Fruit (Atsu Atsu no Mi), which can also explicitly manipulate external heat sources, such as lava and hot air (the Heat-Heat Fruit can heat up external things, but only manipulates the heat that Oven puts into it), and throw balls of heat energy.
• The anime-only character Bear King has the Kachi Kachi no Mi (Hard-Hard Fruit), which gives him the powers of stones being knocked together, letting him harden his body and increase his temperature at the same time, burning anything he touches.

• Kotohara Ren from Popcorn Avatar, while not actually having an avatar of her own yet, is still the incarnation of Agni, the Deva of Fire, and will likely provide the fire-based abilities.

• Pretty Cure
  • Rin, aka Cure Rouge, from Yes! Pretty Cure 5. Even her hair is shaped like a flame when transformed!
  • Cure Sunny from Smile Pretty Cure! also has fire as her personal element.
  • Cure Scarlett from Go! Princess Pretty Cure has fire-based powers as well, which is unsurprising considering her powers are based off of The Phoenix.
• The Mad Burnish In Promare can not only control fire, they can even create MOTORCYCLES out of it!

• Frederica from Psyren can use pyrokinesis to summon highly destructive flames, though if she becomes angry or upset her fire is harder to control (and it's implied she burnt her former house to the ground). Her future counterpart can summon a colossal entity made of flames she calls "Salamander", which is even more powerful.
• Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Walpurgisnacht breathes fire, and is demonstrated to be able to light things on fire remotely.
• Phoenix King Saffron from Ranma ½. He doesn't just project fire, it heals him.
• Shizuma Kusanagi from Real Bout High School is a Hot-Blooded brawler with fiery moves… that are usually performed with alcohol and a disposable lighter. The important thing is it still works like Kyo's moves do, and they still involve a great deal of physical exertion.
• Played with in Reborn! (2004). Certain people have the ability to use Dying Will Flames, which can be one of seven types that correspond to a weather phenomenon and have a special property. Subverted in that some flames have a property that seems more like another element, namely, Rain Flames and Lightning Flames.
  • In the manga, seven more flames are added when the Simon Family enter the story. The new Earth Flames (as opposed to the Sky Flames) correspond to themes associated with the Earth such as Flames of the Forest, Glacier, and Mountain.
• The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World:
  • As Kizuna Red, Tougo is a "Warrior of Flame" and makes stuff blow up just by punching it. On top of this, his Transformation Sequence always unleashes a massive explosion behind him that can scorch the ground and blow up anyone unfortunate enough to be in the crossfire.
  • Rosie Mist's sword, the Sacred Sword Draglas, is able to transform to unleash waves of fire.
• Ryo of the Wildfire from Ronin Warriors wields the armor of fire, and can use fire and flames to attack.
• Rooster Fighter: Sarah appears to be able to manipulate flames.

• Rei Hino (Sailor Mars) from Sailor Moon has appropriately fire-based powers, and also reads flames in her work as a miko. Likewise are her villainous counterparts Koan of the Ayakashi Sisters with her Dark Fire attack, and Eudial of the Witches 5 with her Fire Buster move. Hawk's Eye of the Amazon Trio sported the ability to breath fire with help from a torch.
• In Saint Beast, Goh is gifted with fire-based Elemental Powers.
• Saint Seiya:
  • Phoenix Ikki's other technique aside from Phoenix Genmaken .
  • The Silver Saints, Centaurus Babel. He attacks con his flames.
  • A Filler Villain, the Saint Of Fire. He can throw jets of flame that surround the victim.
• Hotaru/Keikoku from Samurai Deeper Kyo is the Goyosei of Fire representing Mars (and rather similar to YuYu Hakusho 's Hiei), and is able to manipulate fire in combat, up to, fittingly, creating scorching hot black flames. Other fire users include Shindara/Sarutobi Sasuke, who can employ elemental jutsu of fire, water, air and earth, and Hotaru's teacher Yuan, who can even use the black flames Devil's Breath himself with even more skill than Hotaru.
• Homura in Sekirei, against personality type, is one of the more stoic characters. The Hot-Blooded Tsundere is the water Sekirei, Tsukiumi, who exhibits the remainder of this trope.
• Shana from Shakugan no Shana. The translation of her series' title is "the girl with fire in her eyes". That's not the only thing about her that's fiery, either.
• Shaman King: Of the Five Grand Elemental Spirits, Hao is in possession of the Spirit of Fire that he uses instantly to attack for massive damage, before dismissing it just as quickly.
• Gurren from Shōnen Onmyōji uses the fires from hell in his attacks. He's considered the strongest out of the 12 shikigami in terms of attack power.
• While her strengths are more in Black Magic, Lina Inverse of Slayers mostly uses fire Shamanistic Magic to fight—appropriate, given her nature. Also, the most basic and best-known mage spells are either White Magic or fire Shamanism.
• Jacqueline O. Lantern Dupré from Soul Eater has the Weapon form of a lantern that doubles as a flamethrower. She can also generate fire without fully transforming. In fact, the trio of Ox, Kim, and Kirikou are fire and lightening based: Harvar is an electricity-generating lance, and Pot of Thunder and Pot of Fire's powers are what their names suggest.
• Two characters in Tiger & Bunny can create/control fire: Flamboyant superhero Nathan Seymour/Fire Emblem and criminal-killing vigilante Yuri Petrov/Lunatic. Both avert the standard Personality Powers for fire as Nathan is cheerfully camp and Lunatic is unnervingly calm both in and out of costume.
• In the manga version of Tokkô, Sakura's Sword Beam attack seems to be fire-based. Also, Ito is shown to be able to make a giant flaming hand shoot up out of the ground.
• Starjun from Toriko can create and control fire hot enough to melt iron. On top of that, he also has a flaming kithcen knife, which, due to his length, doubles as a sword. In the anime adaptation, his flames were made blue.
• Fatina from The Tower of Druaga is a fire mage who channels her magic through a magic gun/flamethrower.
• Transformers: Cybertron: Scourge, A.K.A. Flame Convoy in Japan. His Cyber Key deploys a pair of small dragon heads with mouth-mounted flamethrowers.
• In Umi Monogatari, Kanon's power is to control fire.
• Undead Unluck: As the representation of the concept of burning, UMA Burn is a giant beast made of lava that can control flames.
• Dilandau's Giant Mecha in The Vision of Escaflowne is equipped with giant flamethrowers... which Dilandau loves to use.

• In Yaiba, the red Orb of Sekiryuu allows Yaiba to wreath himself in flames without burning and to shoot extremely destructive fireballs, a power which becomes his main weapon for quite some time. Later in the series, Burner, one of Onimaru's Four Kishin, is a red oni with the power of fire, able to breathe fire, summon flames, from thin air or from his shield and wields a Flaming Sword whose fire spreado to any weapon it touches.
• Yu-Gi-Oh! has Joey Wheeler/Katsuya Jonouchi; his favorite monster is the Flame Swordsman.
  • Yu-Gi-Oh! GX has Axel Brodie/Austin O'Brien; his Deck utilizes the Volcanic archetype.
  • Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds has Hunter Pace/Mukuro Enjo; his Deck utilizes the Burning Skull archetype.
• Hiei from YuYu Hakusho is a fire youkai. He first demonstrates this ability by incinerating another fire youkai (Zeru), who had been hyped up as being pretty powerful. Rando can also throw fireballs because he stole the technique. Though he claimed to use "demonic fire", Zeru was only limited to flames in the human world; Hiei, on the other hand, because of his transplanted Jagan Eye could also control "Darkness Flame": the living black flame of the demon world Makai.
• Zatch Bell!:
  • Zofis to start with, though his powers are officially based on explosions.
  • Much later, we have Fango, who plays the trope straight.
  • There's also Fire Elbow, pyrokinetic human that's part of an American superhero team called the Majestic Twelve. But they're all background characters, minor at best.
