This is one of Ike's critical hit animations in ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance}}''. The term ''iai'' (pronounced "ee-ai") or "iaidō" (lit. quick draw path) is a Japanese sword technique involving a quick-draw strike followed with a quick re-sheathing of the blade, not to be confused with the battōjutsu which works almost the same (which does not involve re-sheathing).

Despite its Japanese name, Quick Draw is not a true "iaidō" since it does not involve any sort of re-sheathing. The naming most likely via the English version revolves around the terms "quick draw", "fast draw" or "quick on the draw", nodding to the speed at which Ike travels upon unleashing it.
Despite its Japanese name, Quick Draw and the animation it's based on is not a true "iaidō" since it does not involve any sort of re-sheathing. Thus, it is more like battōjutsu than iaidō. The English name likely revolves around the terms "quick draw", "fast draw" or "quick on the draw", nodding to the speed at which Ike travels upon unleashing it.
