Onna-bugeisha.
Onna-Bugeishi is also known as a female japanese warrior (female samurai). The preferred weapon of an onna-bugeisha is the naginata, it was an excellent weapon, the weapon looked like a yuri (japanese spear) and a katana (japanese sword) combined. The naginata is known for it's agility and long reach, which keeps enemies at bay. Although ranged weapons such as a bow and arrow, were also used by many onna-bugeishas, the naginata was the preferred one.

Interesting
Nana wants some yuri...
Oops... I meant "yari". My bad.
Shush. No Yari, Only Yuri.
Given the picture of the Onna-bugeisha you provided, yuri is more fitting anyhow.
