The Poor Melissa is a Scythe that can be wielded by Marluxia in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to the Poor Melissa+.

Design

The Poor Melissa has a curved, green handle with a small, pale gold section at its base and a flat, purple pommel. The front blade of the Scythe curves downward slightly and has a circular section taken out of it near the shaft. The back blade is much shorter and curves upward slightly. The weapon's whole blade is lilac-colored with purple edges. The base of its shaft is pale gold.

Poor Melissa shares its shape with Fickle Erica.

Melissa is a small genus of flowers. The name of the genus means "honey bee" in Greek; plants from the Melissa genus attract bees. "Poor" is used to mean "pitiful" or "pathetic".

Gameplay

The Poor Melissa's ground combo consists of two forward slashes, a spinning slash, and then a rounded slash.

The Poor Melissa's aerial combo is comprised of an upward slash; this is followed by two spinning slashes.
