 * Subverted: Melody's theme starts playing as she charges towards Hymn... but her rival calmly deflects her into the nearest wall.
 * Double Subverted: ...And then, as Hymn gloats over her victory, her own Leitmotif segues into a dramatic remix of Melody's theme as she pulls herself back up and launches another attack.
