Loestar Rush, Warp Ragnarok, Quadriple Hit, Override, Blazing Lion,Twin Strike, Astra Storm (astra didn't even exist in GBA Fire Emblem), All For One, they suit the characters on a visual and conceptual level, but aren't actually stuff they do in their games (though Corrin does have the dragon arm animation in Dragon Fang). And even among the ones I've listed only Goddess Dance is a 1:1. In a roundabout way, Astra Storm references Lyn's crit animation with the after images. Hence it being 5 hits. Granted, the actual illusory doubles from her Engage Skill, and their ability to Chain Attack with the Emblem user, is the actual reference to the after images. Still, the five hit thing can be too.

Still, the five hit thing can be too. I feel that might be stretching things a bit. Not only does she not have that animation with a bow, but Astra as a five hit attack existed well before Lyn in the series, so it's only natural it works the same here. If course Lyn was always a unit in the right archtype for Astra, hence her sinilar animation and my point that "All these things feel natural on these characters even if they've never technically done them before."
