Sequoia



Sequoia (ひいらぎ) is one of Lexaeus's weapons in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to Sequoia+.

Design
The Sequoia’s handle is blue-grey with a bronze spike in its pommel and a red and yellow spike on its tip. The blade and counterweight are one in the same on this Axe Sword, a result of the weapon’s peculiar shape. The Sequoia is shaped like a backward “S” that goes through the spike on the tip of the handle, curls over it—creating the counterweight—and then abruptly widens and curves in the opposite direction, creating the blade. The weapon is equally colored in red and black, and the edges are mostly red. The outer edge of both the counterweight and the blade is lined by silver spikes of varying sizes.

The Holly Olive, also known as Osmanthus heterophyllus, is an evergreen shrub that is native to central and southern Japan. The Sequoia is the tallest and longest living tree on Earth, growing up to 115 metres and living as long as 3,500 years.
