The Tale of the Princess Kaguya: Difference between revisions
Solemn Ending Theme + The Song Remains the Same
(dashed plotline fits better than time skip) |

Line 49:
* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: Princess Kaguya, running away after guests at her naming party demands to see her, but her father not permitting. [[Deranged Animation]] follows.
* [[Single Tear]]: When Princess Kaguya's eyebrows are being picked out, serving as a sign for her getting further and further away from her childhood.
* [[Solemn Ending Theme]]: "When I Remember This Life", a and slow paced duet between piano and vocals, reflective of the [[Downer Ending]].
* [[The Song Remains the Same]]: Played straight with the ending song, "When I Remember This Life", over the end credits when the English dub was produced. Averted with the diegetic songs "Nursery Rhyme" and "Song of the Heavenly Maiden", which is sung by characters in the film and thus dubbed into English.
* [[Soundtrack Dissonance]]: When Kaguya is being {{spoiler|taken away to the moon}}, joyful and festive music plays in a scene which should be melancholic. The soundtrack eventually progresses to a depressing and sorrowful song, averting the usage of the trope in the later parts of the scene.
* [[Ten-Minute Retirement]]: When Kaguya abandons her role as a princess and runs back to her childhood home. She shortly returns to the role when she discovers that {{spoiler|the children she grew up with has moved away.}}
