Bootstrapped Leitmotif	comment	A Bootstrapped Leitmotif is born when a piece of Background Music becomes tied to a character, place, or other specific part of the story that it was not originally intended to represent. This is often because the song in question is played during scenes that focus heavily on a specific character. In video games, this commonly occurs with music for stages or levels strongly associated with a certain character, or the character's Boss Battle music. Sometimes a character may already have a Leitmotif, but a different song that is more readily identified by the audience usurps it and becomes more widely accepted and recognized. A Sister Trope of Bootstrapped Theme, where a leitmotif or other piece of music comes to stand for the series as a whole.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_1133352a	comment	Terminator: The Terminator leitmotif (Dum-Dum-Dut-Dum-Dum) was first created in the second film. In the first film, a similar but different leitmotif is heard during key scenes (opening credits, police shootout, closing credits). Further, in the first two films, the Terminator actually had an entirely different leitmotif when it appeared in most scenes. It wasn't until the third film (headed by an entirely different production crew) that the leitmotif was attached to the character himself, but it has remained that way ever since.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_1622155	comment	It's commonly thought that "Gourmet Race" from Kirby Super Star is Kirby's leitmotif due to its use on Kirby's stage in Super Smash Bros. 64. However, his theme song is actually Green Greens from the first game, as it plays when Kirby is on screen in most cutscenes and is remixed into the themes of pretty much all the final bosses and/or final levels. It is more or less the theme to the entire series.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_1adee40d	comment	The World Ends with You has a shuffling soundtrack of pop, rap, and rock music, and not much in the way of character themes. That didn't stop fan-favorite Large Ham Sho Minamimoto from being associated with the hard rock song Transformation. His boss fight was originally set to Someday, but all future ports of the game changed his boss theme to Transformation, and a remix of the track plays when he makes his dramatic entrance in the sequel. If that wasn't enough, Transformation wasn't even in the original Japanese game, and was only added in the international version.

The one time you fight Pete in Days also has this song, and in Dream Drop Distance, encounters with Pete are the only time this song plays. The Beagle Boys also get in on it in the latter game, but they're Pete's personal lackeys and are later fought alongside him.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_2029a797	comment	Interestingly inverted in the first two Street Fighter Alpha games. In the first Alpha title, the stages are not 100% unique as several of them are one stage with certain elements changed for each character (such as Ken and Charlie sharing a stage but with an audience present in Charlie's version) so technically the themes used were more for the character than the stage. By the time Alpha 2 rolled around, every character had an entirely unique stage catered for them so the music then became attached to the stage itself.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_2319cc69	comment	In Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Ku's leitmotif, heard in "We Named Her Ku", "Ku's First Flight", etc. was derived from the main melody of the Inkwater Marsh BGM, "Separated By The Storm", which Gareth Coker composed well before he had a dedicated theme in mind for the character. The original non-specific Prologue music cues were subsequently discarded and replaced with variations of her theme, including the aforementioned two. Also, the first part of "Up Spirit Caverns Walls" from the preceding game is incorporated into the Upper Inkwater Marsh theme, while the B-section of the former piece was rearranged as Kwolok's leitmotif.

It wasn't meant to represent Bob, but since he was the bad guy, it naturally played only when he was onscreen. The producers ran with it and now it's quite explicitly his theme, always playing when he first appears in an episode (just in time for Bart and Lisa to shout in unison: "AAAAAAH! SIDESHOW BOB!").

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_29382995	comment	In Wandersong, the Quirky Bard protagonist sings "I Wanna Be The Hero" to reveal their deep desire to be a hero that will save the world, becoming an impromptu leitmotif for them going into Act 3. Thing is, they already have their own theme titled "The Bard" that appears at the beginning of most Acts in the game. By the end of Act 3, not only is the Bard explicitly told that they are not any prophesied hero at all, the real hero Audrey Redheart introduces herself with her own theme that uses the "Hero" leitmotif in its entirety, and only plays to represent her for the rest of the game.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_2b79a93e	comment	The SiIvaGunner music channel does this for many characters featured in their Massive Multiplayer Crossover story-based videos. Said characters are chosen to represent songs frequently referenced in the non-story videos, for example "We Are Number One" from LazyTown has been remixed several times, with Robbie Rotten being the representing character. In that case the character choice makes sense as he sung that song, but some cases can be stranger, like "Snow halation" from Love Live! which is represented by the character Nozomi even though Love Live! canonically associates it with Honoka, or the Wii Shop being associated with Drake because of an old mashup combining its theme with "Hotline Bling." The oddest one is probably "Rhythm Code"note also known as "Program Rhythm" or "Puzzle Room" from Kirby: Planet Robobot being represented by Felix the Cat due to an infamous rip mixing the song with music from a Felix bootleg game that Joel played.

In Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, the score is used, respectively, in the scene in which Anakin goes to rescue his mother from the Tusken Raiders and for segments of the Final Battle between Yoda and Palpatine. Although Maul actually has a separate motif in The Phantom Menace, "Duel of the Fates" has since become his leitmotif particularly with its use in Solo despite it originally serving as a battle theme.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_2f203125	comment	Shin Megami Tensei: In the Maniax edition of Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, Dante was given some leitmotifs reminiscent of his own series, and when he was booted off and replaced with Raidou Kuzunoha the XIV in the Chronicle edition, said music remained the same for Raidou. When the Demi-Fiend from Nocturne appears as an Optional Boss in Digital Devil Saga, he's accompanied by the basic battle theme from that game. It doubles as a subtle Take That Player moment as well, implying that the Demi-Fiend sees the party as nothing more than another random encounter to walk all over. In Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, the theme of the final dungeon is a remix of the Major Boss theme from Shin Megami Tensei II, most likely due to the fact that a sizable amount of people exclusively associate that song with YHVH, the final boss of II, and the dungeon is an entire universe ruled and controlled by YHVH, who is fought at the end of it. In Persona 2, the cheerful, poppy school theme from the original Persona is given a more mature, funk-inspired remix as the theme of Yukino, now graduated from school and holding down a job. Notably, it sounds nothing like the theme used last time she was a playable character. Persona 3 FES' The Answer epilogue stars deuteragonist Aigis in the playable role. "Heartful Cry", the boss theme for the fights against the rest of the party, has become associated with her since, with remixes serving as her character theme in Persona 4: Arena and one of her dance routines in Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight. In Persona 4: Arena, Yu gets a remix of "Reach Out to the Truth", the normal battle theme from Persona 4, as his character theme.

The Haunted Castle song "Don't Wait Until Night" (which plays as Simon crosses the bridge to the final encounter) and the original game's "Heart of Fire" (which plays in the fifth stage leading up to Death) were combined into a medley under the second song's name for the boss fight against Julius, and it has become his leitmotif in later games as well.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_36395288	comment	Kirby: The boss fights for Kabula are remixes of the first game's powerup theme (used for the Superspicy Curry and Mint Leaf powerups). Kabula was originally fought after consuming a Mint Leaf, so the powerup theme was used instead of the normal boss theme for that fight. Those types of powerups are no longer used in the series (except for the Kirby Fighters and Kirby Battle Royale games), so the song was repurposed. The music that plays during the first part of the Gourmet Race intro cutscene from Kirby Super Star has been associated with Chef Kawasaki since Kirby: Right Back at Ya!. Kirby: Right Back at Ya! also used a slower, more dramatic rendition of the "Castle Lololo" theme from Kirby's Dream Land as the theme for Dyna Blade, and the games that released after the anime followed suit (particularly Kirby Air Ride and Kirby Super Star Ultra). However, Kirby games in the mid-2010's eventually decoupled the "Castle Lololo" theme from Dyna Blade, featuring the theme in other contexts instead. Meta Knight was given his own battle music in the Kirby Super Star sub-game Revenge of Meta Knight, but is regardless more associated with either the Halberd levels or the ending theme from that game (e.g. in Kirby Star Allies).

Scuttle Town had background music of its own in the Game Boy Color game, but uses a remix of the "minigame room" theme from Risky's Revenge onward. Bolo ended up using the original song as his own theme starting with Pirate's Curse... which is odd, because Bolo is never anywhere near Scuttle Town in the first game. Likewise, Water Town's background music ended up becoming Sky's character theme in Pirate's Curse and Half-Genie Hero.

It was later remixed from a goofy, mock-triumphant, pseudo-orchestral sound into something more exotic and techno-ish for the later short Gravity; this version then became her leitmotif in the TV series. The "Breen National Anthem", leitmotif of Aeon's main antagonists, has a similar story: it was originally created as the theme for a single Breen character, Vaarsche Lockney, meant to sound like a Richard Wagner piece due to the character's Germanic looks...but it fit Bregna's authoritarian bent so well that the tune managed to outlast Lockney himself, who was spitted by an enemy swordsman half a minute into his first and only appearance.

The theme, after being introduced in Star Fox 64, was immediately adopted as the new leitmotif for Fox and his games starting with Star Fox Adventures, ignoring any previously established motifs in Star Fox (SNES) and Star Fox 64. While Star Fox Command was a bit of a departure from the main series, it couldn't help but include the 64 theme on its main menu (here). The original Star Fox Corneria theme is also very popular. It is usually attributed to Fox that Area 6 in Star Fox 64 is his theme, as it was used in Star Fox Command.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_49a87cb3	comment	Final Fantasy VII: "Those Chosen by the Planet" is Sephiroth's leitmotif. However, his Final Battle theme, "One Winged Angel" (which, in fairness, is partially a remix of "Those Chosen by the Planet"), has mutated into his theme song in the minds of the fandom and, as a consequence, the Compilation. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate goes even further in cementing it by using "One Winged Angel" in his reveal trailer. It's justified in that almost all of his future appearances have focused on fighting him, so it only makes sense for his battle theme to take priority. "Main Theme of FINAL FANTASY VII" is often thought of as Cloud's theme as he has no named Leitmotif of his own. That said, a passage from the theme (the second, more dissonant section) is used to accompany a very significant moment in his character development - a passage absent from all other variations on the theme - so it's possible that passage was intended to be his theme.

It was reused for Tam-Tara (Hard) in which Blackbosom makes an appearance and has been associated with her since. Zenos yae Galvus often appears in cutscenes to "Meteor" which was originally used as Nael van Darnus's theme. â€œStone and Steelâ€� is the Big Damn Heroes theme from the Heavensward expansion. Estinien Wyrmblood was a major character in Heavensward who became a fan favourite. In the patches after Heavensward, â€œStone and Steelâ€� effectively becomes Estinienâ€™s theme and plays whenever he shows up to do something badass. "The Maker's Ruin" was originally "just" theme for the first phase of battle against the Ultima Weapon, but since then it became the personal theme of the Warrior of Light. The original version still pops up during especially heroic moments, while later expansions introduced several remixes playing during moments and fights focused on them.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_50bcf7a6	comment	Happens all the time in Homestuck. This webomic has its own music team who typically compose themes based on their own visions, but which will often get used in the comic in a completely different context than they imagined. A specific example is "Crystamanthequins", a song originally supposed to be music for Dave. It was later used in this flash and became associated with Vriska and Terezi instead; lately it has been showing up as a Recurring Riff in that context. One of John's themes, "Doctor" ended up becoming a theme for ascension to God Tiers. One of its remixes, "Savior of the Waking World", has a decent claim to being the theme for the webcomic as a whole. The drum beat from "Upward Movement" (first plays as Dave walks up some stairs) eventually become included in many different songs in Homestuck, such as "Even in Death", "Descend", and "Terezi Owns" (though the third makes sense as it is basically a mirror to the above-mentioned Upward Movement).

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_5afbc0cb	comment	Undertale: Sans has his own Leitmotif named after himself, and has a remix of the song named "Song That Might Play When You Fight Sans". (It does not actually play when you fight Sans; the title only says it might) However, the song most people associate him with is his actual boss theme, "MEGALOVANIA". Similarly, The Fallen Human (whose actual role in the plot beyond their Plot-Triggering Death is ambiguous, at best) is most prominently associated with both the aforementioned "MEGALOVANIA" and the game's opening tune, "Once Upon a Time". Thanks to a popular fan animation, "Megalo Strike Back"note a song by Toby Fox that predates Undertale, but like "MEGALOVANIA" was composed for an EarthBound (1994) fan project is often considered to be their battle theme. The melody of "Ghost Fight" seems to have been intended as a general mini-boss theme, but ended up being more associated in both the fandom and official materials with perennial Ensemble Dark Horse Muffet through her boss fight's remix of it, "Spider Dance", than many of the actual ghost characters. The one ghost that escapes this is the Mad Dummy, who keeps the motif in all of their fights, including their fight as Mad Mew Mew. However, Mad Dummy's use of "Ghost Fight" in and of itself then resulted in an inversion: "Dummy!" was later tied to other characters with doll motifs, such as the puppet-like Spamton NEO in Deltarune.

It is most famous for playing when Nia finally embraces her Flesh-Eater Blade nature and confesses to Rex. Subsequently, in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, a battle remix plays when Nia is in the party, essentially cementing it as her leitmotif. The Updated Re-release of Xenoblade Chronicles 1 features a story expansion following Melia and Shulk called Future Connected, which features a brand new battle theme, to boot. Like with the example involving 2, the battle theme of Future Connected receives a remix in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 that accompanies the party when Melia joins, likewise making it her own leitmotif.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Link was never given a Leitmotif in the first games, despite almost every other character getting one. However, ever since The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, the series' main theme became Link's motif as well, eventually being canonized within the lore of the games as "Song of the Hero". The song most commonly known as Zelda's Lullaby originated in A Link to the Past as the song plays when rescuing one of the Maidens. It returned as Zelda's Leitmotif in Ocarina of Time and has being associated with her ever since. (However, the full version of the song only plays in A Link to the Past once: when you meet Zelda at the beginning of the game. Every time thereafter is an alternate version that leaves a movement out.) Saria's Song is an interesting case in that it is specifically her leitmotif even though it was also used in other contexts in Ocarina of Time. However, while she didn't appear in any later games in the series, the song continued to appear in forested areas... and due to both an Ocarina sidequest and his connection to creepy forests, it has spent more games representing the Skull Kid (in Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess) than its originally intended character. It was also used as a unique victory theme for Darunia in Hyrule Warriors, referring to a scene from Ocarina of Time in which the song is played for him. The Hyrule Castle theme from A Link to the Past has steadily become the theme for the King of Hyrule (in games where he actually appears). It started with King Daphnes in The Wind Waker, and continued with King Rhoam in Breath of the Wild.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_994af351	comment	The second game, Justice For All, has a track called "Investigation - In the Midst 2002". While not technically considered a character theme, every instance of the song is connected to the defendant of the case it appears in, Matt Engarde, so is is any wonder that it is generally considered to be his theme? Its Dark Reprise, "Investigation - Core 2002", is first played when he shows his true colors, so it again gets this treatment and is considered the "Evil Matt Engarde Theme" Oddly enough, the same track ends up inverting this trope in the following game. While it was practically a Leitmotif in JFA, it becomes a general 'dark secret' theme in Trials and Tribulations.

The Final Boss theme for PokÃ©mon Red and Blue would later be remixed and utilized for the championship battles of the Real Life VGC tournaments. The Champion Theme from PokÃ©mon Gold and Silver has become far more associated with Red from PokÃ©mon Red and Blue than with the champion the theme was composed for, Lance, to the point where the theme has become better known as "Red's theme" amongst the fandom. This is largely thanks to the theme playing in the battle against him on Mt. Silver, which is considered by fans to be one of the best final battles in the series. The games have caught on to this, as after HeartGold and SoulSilver, the theme would be reused and rearranged for most of Red's future appearances. In a fandom example, the theme for Accumula Town, the second town in PokÃ©mon Black and White, has become associated with Furret via Memetic Mutation, a PokÃ©mon that wasn't in the regional dex of Black and White.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_a81325d3	comment	Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy V, this happens within the game itself to Gilgamesh. The first time you fight him, it plays the regular boss music. The second time you fight him it is during the Big Bridge segment, throughout which the appropriately named "Battle at the Big Bridge" plays. However, it becomes Gilgamesh's own theme as it plays during battles with him later in the game which do not even take place on the Big Bridge. The theme has even followed him into other games in which he appears. Final Fantasy VII: "Those Chosen by the Planet" is Sephiroth's leitmotif. However, his Final Battle theme, "One Winged Angel" (which, in fairness, is partially a remix of "Those Chosen by the Planet"), has mutated into his theme song in the minds of the fandom and, as a consequence, the Compilation. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate goes even further in cementing it by using "One Winged Angel" in his reveal trailer. It's justified in that almost all of his future appearances have focused on fighting him, so it only makes sense for his battle theme to take priority. "Main Theme of FINAL FANTASY VII" is often thought of as Cloud's theme as he has no named Leitmotif of his own. That said, a passage from the theme (the second, more dissonant section) is used to accompany a very significant moment in his character development - a passage absent from all other variations on the theme - so it's possible that passage was intended to be his theme. While it happened a little more slowly for the main villain of Final Fantasy VI, Kefka is now more associated with "Dancing Mad," the song played during his Final Boss fight, than "Kefka," the leitmotif used for him in all of his other appearances in the game (though the third movement of "Dancing Mad" heavily incorporates his original theme). Final Fantasy XIV: Blackbosom's theme song is based off of 'My Soul to Keep', which was originally for Lady Amandine in Haukke Manor. It was reused for Tam-Tara (Hard) in which Blackbosom makes an appearance and has been associated with her since. Zenos yae Galvus often appears in cutscenes to "Meteor" which was originally used as Nael van Darnus's theme. â€œStone and Steelâ€� is the Big Damn Heroes theme from the Heavensward expansion. Estinien Wyrmblood was a major character in Heavensward who became a fan favourite. In the patches after Heavensward, â€œStone and Steelâ€� effectively becomes Estinienâ€™s theme and plays whenever he shows up to do something badass. "The Maker's Ruin" was originally "just" theme for the first phase of battle against the Ultima Weapon, but since then it became the personal theme of the Warrior of Light. The original version still pops up during especially heroic moments, while later expansions introduced several remixes playing during moments and fights focused on them.

Sonic Generations, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 2, and Sonic Mania all use variants of it in their Metal Sonic fights, while Sonic Forces uses a variant of the American track. Similarly, the Japanese/European version of the Collision Chaos theme seems to have become the leitmotif of Classic Amynote as opposed to Modern Amy, whose leitmotif has always been "My Sweet Passion", as her introductions in Sonic Mania Adventures and Sonic Origins are both accompanied by remixed versions of it. This Machine, the theme of Team Dark from Sonic Heroes, is generally considered to be E-123 Omega's leitmotif (given that other members of Team Dark already has their own), and it gets used as his Team Ultimate theme in Team Sonic Racing. "Vela-Nova", the theme for the boss fight between Sonic vs. Blaze in Sonic Rush, has become the latter's leitmotif, despite the theme playing regardless of which character you play as. Sonic and the Black Knight was an attempt to avert this and give her a unique theme, but subsequent titles went back to using "Vela-Nova", notably Team Sonic Racing.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_da72cf97	comment	Trails Series: In a case of Early-Installment Weirdness, "Silver Will" was the theme for all plot-significant bosses in Trails in the Sky FC, Loewe only being one of them. Starting with SC, it became Loewe's theme exclusively. (And, retroactively, a Boss Remix of the theme of the Hamel tragedy) Similarly, "Unfathomed Force" was the general theme for powerful bosses in Trails to Azure, one of them being Arianrhod the Steel Maiden. The song quickly became associated with her, and when she returned in Trails of Cold Steel III the song was only used for her fights. Trails of Cold Steel IV re-purposes the Super Arrange version of "The Enforcers", the general Ouroboros Leitmotif from the Sky games, as the theme of Enforcer No. I, McBurn, in his true form.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_e5feb1e	comment	Ace Attorney: The second game, Justice For All, has a track called "Investigation - In the Midst 2002". While not technically considered a character theme, every instance of the song is connected to the defendant of the case it appears in, Matt Engarde, so is is any wonder that it is generally considered to be his theme? Its Dark Reprise, "Investigation - Core 2002", is first played when he shows his true colors, so it again gets this treatment and is considered the "Evil Matt Engarde Theme" Oddly enough, the same track ends up inverting this trope in the following game. While it was practically a Leitmotif in JFA, it becomes a general 'dark secret' theme in Trials and Tribulations. Across the board, many fans associate the "Pursuit" themes with the protagonists rather than the intended "Objection!" themes, as the main thrust of the game is catching witnesses in lies so when the "Pursuit" music starts up, that means the main character has the witness dead to rights and it's time for a Theme Song Power Up. "Pursuit - Cornered!" from the original game is the one many consider Phoenix's theme, while other people consider it as both his AND Edgeworth's theme. He has a theme proper in "Objection! 2001" but Cornered appears in a flashback with both Phoenix and Edgeworth and was also used in the final moment of Phoenix's trilogy, while "Objection! 2001" only appeared in the first and fourth games. It got to the point that upon his appearance in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 he is the only character with TWO themes, his proper theme and "Pursuit - Corner the Culprit" for his Turnabout Mode. The fans aren't complaining, though. Apollo Justice has a proper theme used for his Objections (titled "A New Chapter of Trials!"), but many people associate him with "Pursuit - Overtaken"note Note that his original theme song is still his official theme. It even gets a more calmer remix when he's not the viewpoint character of the chapter in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney â€“ Dual Destinies. As of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney â€“ Dual Destinies, Phoenix seems to have appropriated the main riff of "Objection! 2004" as his personal theme music, which was remixed again for the sequel. Fittingly for the trope, as Phoenix was really intended to be associated more with the first game's music (hence the reuse of Ace Attorney 1 themes in Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney), "Objection! 2004" was really more Mia Fey's theme music. In the first Ace Attorney, "Blissful People" was associated with, well, any happy witness. Lotta Hart was only one of these, but it becomes associated solely with her from Justice For All onward. In Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, whenever Apollo uses his Perceive ability, the music that plays is a slowed-down, distorted version of that game's cross-examination music. In later games, when Apollo uses his Perceive ability, that same piece of music is still used, instead of a variation of those games' cross-examination music.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_ebc16967	comment	The stage music themes in Street Fighter II. They ended up being the themes of the characters who uses it as their home stage. Interestingly inverted in the first two Street Fighter Alpha games. In the first Alpha title, the stages are not 100% unique as several of them are one stage with certain elements changed for each character (such as Ken and Charlie sharing a stage but with an audience present in Charlie's version) so technically the themes used were more for the character than the stage. By the time Alpha 2 rolled around, every character had an entirely unique stage catered for them so the music then became attached to the stage itself.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_ec28245c	comment	Original version: Many Dragon Ball Z characters' leitmotifs fall into this trope, although some do have an official leitmotif, such as kid Gohan, adult Gohan, and Piccolo (even Krillin has one, although it's quite unknown among fans). Frieza is usually associated with two tracks. The first, M814A, is a battle rendition of Garlic Jr.'s leitmotif from Movie 01, but it was used a lot during battle scenes in the Frieza arc (to the point it's the most used track in all of Dragon Ball Z when counting the 3 specials; it's pretty much the Battle Theme Music of the anime), so it ended up being associated with him. The second (actually two, M912 and M919, but they're so similar that they're usually considered as one), is actually a rendition of Dr. Wheelo's leitmotif from Movie 02, but it was the track that usually appeared in scenes featuring Frieza other than battle scenes, so it became Frieza's leitmotif. Similar to Frieza, Cell is associated with two tracks: M1308 for battle scenes, and M1314 for other scenes. They were originally renditions of Metal Cooler's leitmotif from Movie 06. Majin Buu is usually associated with M1914, which is actually the Super Saiyan theme rendition for the Majin Buu arc (both the Frieza and Cell arcs have each its own rendition of the theme), but it appears so many times during the Majin Buu arc as a battle theme, that it ended up associated with him instead of with the good guys, and therefore, it's difficult to find anyone who doesn't think of Majin Buu when hearing it. The former were better in the sense that, at least, they were exclusive to that arc, but still fit here because they were not exclusive to Frieza and Cell respectively as they both originate from movies. M1525 would be the other track associated with Majin Buu, more specific of that arc. Strangely, M1922, the track that usually appears in scenes featuring Majin Buu other than battle scenes, isn't as well remembered among fans. M727, the Saiyans' theme, ended up being Vegeta's theme, because he's by far the most important of the (evil) Saiyans, and the only one who survives. Although it appears whenever one of the evil Saiyans is on screen (it first appears with Raditz), after Raditz and Nappa die it can only appear with Vegeta on screen (it doesn't help that it's used much later than even the Frieza arc). This particular case is notable because Vegeta does have an official leitmotif, first appearing in Movie 07 with M1413.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_f04b4111	comment	Metroid: Super Metroid has a song called "Theme of Samus Aran: Galactic Warrior" on the game's official soundtrack CD... except that tune is now better known as the music for Upper Crateria. Instead, the opening and closing variants of that game's main theme have since combined and mutated into protagonist Samus Aran's leitmotif. In fact, this happened almost immediately, with the 1994 Orchestral Game Music Concerts labeling the song as the character's theme just a few months later, and the following year's Galactic Pinball for Virtual Boy has it play during the Metroid minigame. The Super Smash Bros. series would refer it as the character's theme, but it would take until Metroid: Samus Returns in 2017 for the franchise itself to explicitly refer to it as "Theme of Samus: Galactic Warrior", stealing the name of that original song. The Lower Crateria theme from Super Metroid. The first time it cues in the game is when Samus returns from her brief visit to Brinstar and is suddenly faced with Space Pirates that weren't there before. Thanks to this, as well as remixes in Zero Mission and Corruption, the theme is now associated with Space Pirate bases in general. Super Metroid used three different songs for its various boss fights. The one that played during both escape sequences, as well as the fights with Ridley, Draygon, and the Torizo, has come to be almost exclusively associated with Ridley and has been remixed for every appearance he has made in the series since. Even Metroid Prime and Super Smash Bros. Brawl refer to it as "Vs. Ridley". The second boss theme, played during the Kraid, Crocomire, and Phantoon fights, has essentially become Kraid's theme in Metroid: Zero Mission. When Phantoon returned in Metroid: Other M, he just shared a new original theme with the Queen Metroid, which seemed to further indicate that this theme was now only associated with Kraid. However, this was subverted by Metroid Dread, which does not reuse this boss theme for Kraid's battle. What was originally "Lower Norfair" in Super Metroid has come to mean "hot zone" due to its use in Metroid Prime and then Metroid: Samus Returns using it as such some 15 years after Prime, making it official. Even the name got hijacked, as the theme is specifically called "Magmoor Caverns" in Samus Returns, despite Prime 1 not being the origin of the melody. In Metroid Dread, a remix of the "Lower Brinstar" themenote also known as "Red Soil" from Super Metroid plays during Quiet Robe's exposition scene, as well as when Quiet Robe's X Parasite copy sacrifices itself to Samus. This theme predates Quiet Robe by over two decades and is otherwise unassociated with the Chozo, making it a somewhat unexpected choice of leitmotif for this character.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_f1da64b5	comment	This is more of an in-development bootstrap, but in The Lord of the Rings you first get glimpses of the Gondor and Minas Tirith themes in The Fellowship of the Ring, but once it comes their time to shine in The Return of the King, they've changed meaning: since there isn't that much of a distinction between Gondor and Minas Tirith, the Gondor theme is used for both, while the Minas Tirith theme seems to be used for Isildur's heritage (the line of kings and, most prominently, the sword AndÃºril). The "nature" theme originally associated with the Ents in The Two Towers is eventually shifted to the Rohirrim, with a Triumphant Reprise as a build-up to the Charge in The Return of the King to represent their force of nature with a cavalry charge. Used purposefully in The Hobbit: After Smaug's death in The Battle of the Five Armies, the bulk of his thematic material now comes to be associated with Thorin, who is suffering from a bad case of Dragon-sickness and begins acting just like his arch-enemy.

Bootstrapped Leitmotif / int_f6a54e75	comment	Kingdom Hearts: "Destiny's Force" is the theme for numerous major boss battles in Kingdom Hearts, of which the Recurring Boss Darkside happens to be one. 358/2 Days, coded and 0.2 all use it exclusively for Darksides (and the Palette Swap Dark Follower in the former). "Rowdy Rumble" played during different mini-boss fights in Kingdom Hearts II, including most fights with Pete. The one time you fight Pete in Days also has this song, and in Dream Drop Distance, encounters with Pete are the only time this song plays. The Beagle Boys also get in on it in the latter game, but they're Pete's personal lackeys and are later fought alongside him. "Working Together" is the battle theme for Twilight Town as Sora. In II, Yen Sid's Mysterious Tower is part of that world, so it naturally plays there. The Tower later appears as a standalone world in Birth by Sleep, with the same battle theme.
