What on earth are you talking about? I don't see any "LOLongbow fanboyism" at all in this or any other thread here. As for Jomon, Samurai were archers first, whether on foot or horseback, and their sword would only be used for when the enemy was too close for shooting. Realistically, they'd also prefer to use a naginata or yari if they knew they were going to fight simply because it's safer than fighting with a katana.
