Theme Analysis

Pansy's theme is less developed than other character themes in the film. It is introduced in K-218, when Pansy is seen running through the forest, with a simple identifying motive (in F Minor): 5-5-6-5-4-3-4-5 (C-C-D♭-C-B♭-A♭-B♭-C). This exact same motive appears again in K-222, when Bulma encounters Pansy. The theme's final iteration is in K-231, but it has a slight twist at the end of the phrase: 5-5-6-5-4-3-2-3-1. This phrase continues into a more developed melody that is not used in other tracks.
