When Nene laughs in pico week 2 songs, she immediately stops after spitting.

Steps to Reproduce

Play Spookeez (Pico Mix) or South (Pico Mix), then reach 70 combo, and then lose that combo.

Is this related to the lightning strike shifting between sprites? I imagine that might break some animations.

I just tested it and encountered some strange behavior

It doesn't really shift between sprites. The dark one is just made transparent so the regular characters which are behind the dark ones can be visible. I imagine the actual Nene (not the dark one) is playing the animation regularly. That's what you saw in the video.

I figured it was a transparency trick. What's odd is that the dark sprites get cut off but the regular ones play normally. Do the dark ones always cut off after the spit?

It seems so. I think her idle dance is interrupting it.

Checking the image itself, it looks like that her spitting frames are actually the only part of her laughing animation that are included in the sprite sheet.

Wow, you're right! This should be an easy fix then.
