In Japan, a blowgun is known as Fukiya. A blowgun is also referred to as a blowpipe or blow tube. The weapon is placed inside the pipe. The breath will create a projectile momentum with the use of one’s breath. This type of ninja device uses propulsive power limited by the use of one’s respiratory muscles. This weapon does not have a mouthpiece. A shooter must learn to maintain a seal with his lips as he exhales.
Fukiya appear in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #111. They are used by both Donatello and Michelangelo to knock out Old Hob's spies, who have invaded the Splinter Dōjō. The fukiya is also the weapon of choice of Mushroom.
