All I can think of are ridiculous weapons like Nicolas D Wolfwood's huge cross weapon from Trigun.

It's an odd choice of weapon since it seems to be too cumbersome to be practical.

I now recall a couple more after some thought:

The only thing I can think of is the rose, like how Tuxedo Mask and Kurama throw. I guess you can say that they are using magic to enhance it to be powerful (Kurama makes his into a whip) but it's still pretty funny to use in a combat sense.
